You vendetta before rupture and flag before rupture if chosen
Tbh there’s so much cleave it feels like in cucking my self not going necro
I don’t have the SF conduit though
But venth feels so good
Which pvp talents shoud I take btw?
aight ty xd
for M+ ?
Yes
For everything. :P
Hey folks, i see that there are no "perfect" stats weapon for rogues, does this mean i just uppgrade the highest itlvl weapon i obtain with crit or haste on it ?
perfect stats are on sly weap
thinking m+ here not sylv daggers 😛
This tier im not gonna upg daggers and focus on upging rings neck and trinkets
might be folly but eh
But last tier I just upgraded whatever dagger I got first
Yeh that's fine.
What are our best M+ Anima powers so far?
outlaw has a pin for anima powers i assume it’s pretty much the same for the other 2 specs
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
but if Subterfuge talented you use Garrote as opener or still sbs?
X4 garrote/SnD/then SBS dot on everyone I assume and apply ruptures
Just a random question
If rogues shadowstep the spike balls for painsmith will the spike ball hit?
yes
Oofff
Mut>SnD>Mut>Garr>Rupture>Vendetta>Flagellation>Shiv>Vanish>Mut>envenom sound right?
or Flag before rupture?
flag before rupture
Door of shadows through it :^)
Don’t try
You’ll get urself killed
It says to take the battle axe?
I thought it better to take the stats upgrade there
I prefer taking plumage/stats/shield/and heal when taking damage
But if we get the bonus damage for interrupting with plumage that might be something
yeah i usually take the stats over battle axe and then necrotic... which usually does about 15-20% of my boss dmg
I always take necrotic
and i have the other two dps take volcanic
Yeah it’s nutty on bosses
Why necrotic ?
Because of the dam
cos its does 15-20% on bosses
True true
never have 3 dps take volcanic
Inspiring kinda negates the effect of volcanic as well this week for some packs
I might just start taking necrotic then
necrotic dagger is yuge
I'm kinda torn between champion's boon & the axe one though
having 40% crit is super nice
Can you throw multiple axes ? In a pack ?
yeah ive tried both but still not sure which is actually better
we had a bug in mists where someone got knocked into one of the doorways and it reset us to the start while in combat
and I just saw a buncha axes flying through the walls
lmao
the range on it is ridiculous
Hey for eye and the nine mythic would it be better to play ep+vig even if it is a 150 dps loss vs bs+ds? almost all logs are with ep+vig
Tell them buckling rampage hurts
I feel as if the axes would just make trash packs stupid easy
Dont get hit by that
potatoes gonna potato
Aye
You're comparing a fight with 2-targets for 30% of the fight
to patchwork
Try simming yourself in Cleave Add instead of Patchwork
alright will do
But it’s safe to play ep vigor anyway
I have it as default
Dont care that bs/ds sims 20 dps higher
i mean i have way too low haste so it will help quite a bit but as i said sims tell me its around 130 dps loss if i take it
There’s no low haste
in patchwork dunno how good the bs proc are in sims
i have 11,24% xd
Which rogue spec is currently the most fun to play?
That’s completely subjective
That’s subjective
But if you ask here, most will prob say sin 
yes
Tbh it depends on the play style you enjoy
carpel tunnel?
Outlaw
Slow poison and bleed ?
OK my bad😅, which one is the easiest to do the rotation?
Sin
I have gear that can put me at 30% but I sim higher at 17% with more crit
Sin IMO
Also subjective. But basics on sin are pretty easy I’d say
Enjoyed outlaw in bfa, swapped to sub in SL which was less fun but I was annoyed by target cap from outlaw
We all have target caps here?
Any good Videos I can watch to see rotations from sin?
FoK should be uncapped imo
You're better off just checking out one of the guides & putting in some target dummy work than watching a video
Entire different discussion tho
!guide
Oh yeh that shit happens all the time to me
just check out one of those, the wowhead one is good. Mystler does a great job of keeping it up to date @atomic thicket
Even with 35% crit
OK ty
it's even more saddening when you're playing poisoned katar and you take the champions boon and you should have 45% crit with FoK
and you get 1cp 3 foks in a row

Ok i did the add cleave sim and its just 48 dps loss vs bs+ds and i guess ep+vig feels smoother
I dont even bother running Katar anymore
it's such a depressing conduit
Then just play it
Is there any way to SIM with M+ anima powers?
No
A lot
We appreciate you.
my head would have exploded by that point
Good morning
Also fuck off if you think I’m lazy with all the shit I do 
morning
i wrote it like 3 hours ago XD do u really read all this chat spam XDD
I got pinged, so I read it 
!guide
ah
Feel free to update it yourself if you got like a week with nothing to do and you’ve tested all the mechanics
are there any specific talents I should take for Torgh? I forget. been a hot min
nah, it was irony, at second i thought maybe i miss some button in spreadsheet
but now i see it just have none info
xD
Leeching poison is pretty pog
What legendary are people boosting on tuesday
is it more ST or m+ build?
Doomblade personally.
anima lure 
Obedience 
Anyone have a good list of WA's to have for 9.1?
It's a good choice
M+ in torg
Obedience feels weird as assa for me
Dungeons, raids, pvp etc
also, I simmed myself last night and doomblade sims higher than obedience
yeah obedience seems to be the best "flex" legendary to boost
It does
also a good point...
By how much?
It's been simming higher since they nerfed Obe
lik +60
Fucking kek
I mean, yeah
60 whole dps
its not really that much of adiff
Back to bed with me it’s too early
Massive.
go sleep whisp
@limber lion you still swapping to venth
#gothbois
Probs
as you should
And our last soulbind is gonna be NUtS
How much dps increase is unholy dom shards bonus?
I saw someone say like 900+ dps
holy shit
yeah shard bonuses are big
Finally got a unholy shard but it’s SPEEEEDDDD
i have no unholy shard and just 2 sockets
(then again my group is still forming, so we havent got past normal)
My first shard was actually Dyz(unholy dmg one) insta upgrade to level 5
Dyz nuts
I got the execute blood and damage frost one first
sorry im contractually obligated to do that
i have 2 blood ones so far
i have the hp boosting one and the one that gives you damage if your hp% is higher
or something like that



I am still using 223 daggers :(
Let’s all gang up on cev
my best daggers were 220s
gib me
I got a 226 off hand like 4 weeks before 9.1
Jesus Christ cev
i did get an early 240ish dagger this season
so im not as copium as last patch
but im 100% sure this is the best im getting for the rest of the patch

waiting to kill nerzul before upgrading dagger to 246
But I would be very lucky to loot the raid dagger after getting the axe from the nine
We did splits between the two so I guess it reset loot counter 
Is it worth socketinf that speed unholy shard??? Or do we get any other unholy
Or is that part of the 3 set?
any 3 unholy gems will do. getting the bonus is worth more than the gems by themselves.
Okay thanks guys will socket my speed one
Does it matter where you socket it or can it go in any Dom slot?
Any dom socket
Okay great thanks
Not sure on the helm though, it might have to be one
Has anyone tried theotar? Not sure how the mastery thingy works and if it has any downsides (like downtime)
I am using sub for pure ST with no downtime and sin otherwise 😛
Raid mainly
I am using nadija for sub and can't decide between draven and theotar for sin, cleave scenarios and high mobility encounters
Theotar sims higher but idk how bad is to lose the mastery buff
It’s pretty easy not to lose
Also didnt know maim, mangle was simming way higher than WPS 😄
Depends, might wanna sim it
Yeah i did, its just... unexpected. Main, mangle 226 sims higher than my 239 WPS
it was like a 20 dps difference for me
for me 239 wps is better
239 wps vs 226 maim
It change depend on your stat
the allround alternative to deeper and blindside, were vigor and ep yeah? not ep and bs
raid
Yes
cheers
You mixed shadow core oil +20ap is better for you lievet?
Okok

My dom gear is 239 it’s still worth socketinf and using chisel to remove it if I get higher ilvl gear?

Well except the one time stygia payment, the removing doesnt cost anything
so why not
Nah I would keep the dom gear
are u using doomblade?
yes
makes doomblade do more dmg i guess
oh does the conduit increase the bleed damage
i think so
vendetta then rupture or rupture then vendetta
!guide
Opener should be
Mut - snd - mut - garrote - vendetta - flag - rupture - shiv/vanish - mut - evenom - mut - mut - evenom
If you don’t play deeper you prob only need one mut at the end if you get a crit
mine is
mut snd mut rup garrote vend flag mut shiv then vanish eveneom
No rupture ?
Where is rupture
don't you Vanish for Envenom and not Mut?
thats what i do
it seems we vanish for mut
Doesn’t matter env mut mut, mut env mut etc is all the same
well it depends if you have the master assasin talent
No
For M+ which leggy do we use
2 muts and 1 env are the same in that window
Obedience if your venth zold if necro
i found Obedience kinda not so good
It’s only good in M+ really
isn't it also good for AoE heavy fights?
Yea
Most likely ye
Less envenom and mutilates will devalue doomblade
but yeah, Obedience is the way to go for everything not single target
More and more it’s showing up in raids so it’ll be interesting to see in a month
Most encounters have something secondary to hit
I don’t think besides guardian there’s a pure ST
So that lends itself to other finishers and more energy regen and cp spending increasing flags value
plus i like pressing flag more often
It’s so nice having flag up so often in M+
I’m glad people can play sub who Enjoy it
I also Emily sub
can i cast mut after the shiv?
My phone is stupid lmao
You can yeah
I’m telling Sarah you Emily
What about Amy
what ABOUT amy

You’ll see more and more variance based on what people enjoy and encounters
A lot of sin rogues will probably fotm to sub and realize it’s not as forgiving as sin and go back to sin but have a max level obedience already
So they’ll just play that
i mean, what ISN'T more forgiving than sin
Outlul
Sin can be a bitch if you fall behind on bleeds but it is relatively straightforward yea
its not like its an apm intensive spec to begin with
which is something i kinda enjoy
i like having the brainspace for mechanics
No, but that means every gcd has value
but anyways, as long as i can avoid outlaw, im gucci
If you scuff a flag window as sub you have some wiggle room to get the stacks back, as sin if you scuff it enjoy your 19 stack
I’ll prob star playing sub when it’s farm
Prog sub bud
Fuck that
is the secret technique trinket recognised properly in the apl?
yea there's a slot on top gear for it to choose stat now
in raid when do i want to be using my phantom fire?
Guys, what is the usual opener in the raid for assa?
Without lashing scars, as I'm necro
Flagellation I mean.
sbs snd mut garrote rupture shiv vendetta vanish mut envenom mut
is there a pin about phantom fire vs agil?
guys where do i find the notes for BIS Tarague powers?
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
sik
So I don't start with ambush or garrote out of stealth but sbs?
!mut
Ambush is currently only used from blindside/sepsis proc, not from stealth.
The reasoning is a little complicated, but the most important of them is the difference in combo points on crit (up to 4 vs 3).
Some other factors to consider are increased poison applications, blindside, and doomblade. This is true for all talent combinations and legendaries.
yea you begin with bonespike
bone spike then snd
Huh, interesting ,alright alright
i never understood pastebin, what do i do with it
i thought Vanish = Mut>Envenom
didnt someone said that a few days ago because the CP regen is better than the envenom crit?
but in general its not a huge diff
Thanks man
Can someone take a look at this log and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Came in to help a friend with normal guardian and damage is just not where it should be. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/dNpBG7t1nDKxmrAQ/#fight=last&type=damage-done&source=116
you can use on 4 if you're playing vigor
kk
There’s instructions in that bot command, I would read it again, not sure how else to explain it
wait if ur playing with 6 combo points u dont envenom @ 4+ but at 5+?
Correct
Give me a second just woke up
oh ok ty
@balmy condor no rush. Ty on advance
do i want to use my phantom fire with vendetta?
vendeta only affets auto attacks and rogue spells
do I CT instead of Envenom at 3 targets, regardless of CT dot?
what missives should i put on my lego?
What lego? If obed and only playing assa then crit Haste, if you playing sub as well then crit vers, idk what you'd pick If you playing outlaw aswell cause fuck that spec
just assa with zold
Crit Haste then
ok thanks
Fusion trinket simming higher now POG?
Crit vers is fine for outlaw too
Holy shit
Why is that trinket simming so high
Over a phial at that

!guide
@odd hazel idk but I have a heroic one in my bags that is about to get macro'd into a button somewhere
What boss does that drop on again ?
Uhh. Guardian i think
I should sim it and see if it beats any of my trinkets
anyone know how to get plater to stop showing other rogue's vendetta?
can I play sin as necro? is there a lot dps loss ?
Nope you can safely play necro
It’s not ahead in sT but wins in cleave/AoE ( obedience venth seems to do better by a small margin in dungeon slice )
check the pins for the theoretical differences
If you're using mine, it's in "Buff Special". You can just remove it there.
I play Necro :) it's good
it's bad if you wanna play Sub as well
its good, but why when the gothbois are based
^
Kui nameplates, i found it better than plater. + Modified luxthos wa rogue set
!guide
Just came back to retail after playing 9.0 a little bit, trying to get caught up to 9.1 - Switched covenant to Venthyr from Nightfae so I'm renown 7 atm, but had that campaign completed for nightfae and I think all of 9.0 too - Whats the most important thing to do?
Im ilvl 202 atm
hi guys what does it mean to have 'nadjia triple potency obedience' mean ? vs nadjia dauntless obedience ?
dauntless duelist is a soulbind that prevents you from getting a 3rd potency slot with nadjia
I imagine There’s a path on nad which utilizes three potency conduits.
So you would have the option of either getting dauntless duelist, or 3 potency slots, but not both.
@vagrant tapir complete campaign for unlocking soulbinds, torghast for soul ash and cinders, anything else for renown catch-up.
finish all campaigns (chains of domination) and venthyr, do ur weekly Korthia and Torghast(Maw) Stuff head into m+ raid/pvp
Obedience is the venthyr legendary power
so what would play in raid as Assa, Obidience or Doomblade?
its -0.03% Dps for Obidience in Pure ST
so pretty much up to u i guess
Doomblade loses as soon as u cant keep up the bleeding on more than 1 target by mutilating
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/2us553DczUGEJ3dxPzDJg7 could someone explain me why is in my quicksim Deadly poison so high?
is that correct?
@compact oyster "but i don't understand what "triple potency" means?
Were those professions journals ever implemented? And is there any real advantage to professions outside gold making?
3 potency slots
bcs of ur auto attack procs
oh thank u
i guess u got alot of Attack Speed making ur auto attacks with SND proc alot of Lethal Poison instant damage
oh wait ye, in sims i have windfury
in details its seperated to 2, instant and dot but in raidbots it's combined
@teal bloom U can left click it and open up to see the split dpös

mb
nice trinkets tho.
can you pre pot in stealth?
okay thanks
If you shadowstep to eye of jailor do you end up in the middle of the platform (on the ledge)? Trying to figure out how infectous is shadowstepping through the beam without changing targets and seemingly nothing to jump to
Puts you on platform a bit left of center
Excellent. No matter where you jump from?
Yes
You’re the man. Thanks
If beam is going right to left then be careful. I got shredded last reclear... so now I step if it's going left to right and cloak if vice versa
Totally makes sense
Good call out. Any other tips and tricks like that one (for other bosses) to help keep up uptime on fights? Or have a good resource for me to look at that sort of aggregates them all in one place?
yes you can pot during stealth... dont really need to pre-pot anymore though
thanks alli
obedience goes on cloak right
np
Yes
Thx
i see everyone using doomblade
lege or talent?
talent
why not?
do u not want the garrote buff?
How do you sim the unholy set bonus?
How much should i pool with EP?
Single Target Crimson Tempest still a thing?
PB stronger but as soon as we have adds CT should be better
do i lose much dps staying necro/doomblade?
answer is no
in sims flag is better but there is so much movement in this raid that they are pretty even
why are subs so much better at Fatescribe? is it just the phasing lining with cds better?
lots of target swaps onto burstable adds
CT on fatescribe worth taking ?
ahh i see
for the ad cleave?
id say yeds
I personally use ct on fate
okay will use
Whats the current renown cap?
48
is Phial nerfed i have 236 and its doing all the time 4.1% and on bloodmalet said 6.86%
Fury warrior meta is gonna be back on the menu
My guardian teinket is doing around 5% at 226
well yeah if youre doing 5k dps
hahaha limit found out sylv does not die at 50% and now they're doing splits to gear up their rogues 
think they're funneling a shoulder piece to surgemachine (druid)
I came in to help a friend on normal guardian last night and my damage is about 1.2k under my patch Sim. Can someone take a look and see if I'm doing something wrong?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/dNpBG7t1nDKxmrAQ/#fight=last&type=damage-done&source=116
yo how strong is silvanas dager?
Pretty strong.
You can sim it.
It's not super giga for assa, but it's huge for Sub
gives limit an unfair advantage if its 45% on sylv
echo have been better this tier
woops, wrong channel
I think that you are doing your opener wrong imo. You used first shiv in 27 secs
Casted vendetta, and vanish 5 seconds after that vendetta
Well, thank god it’s not hard to swap between sub and sin
- Opener is incorrect.
- You press your buttons very slowly. You need to mash more.
- You need to slam Shiv on cooldown more often. Never hold it.
- Always use Flag before a finisher.
- You didn't press Vanish with your second Vendetta. You should always use Vend/Shiv/Vanish together.
- You didn't use a potion.
on 2. I think it's a pooling issue, the energy overcap is actually quite good
Yep.
- Don't use your Blindside proc (Ambush) if you're at max-1 combo points. Always aim to use it at low combo points, so you don't waste em. When you get a proc, you just use it instead of your next Mutilate.
I like how my 233 Sack did more than 5% of my overall dps on Remnant, but my 242 Totem only did 2.81%
It sims less for me; is there a way that makes it proc more in a fight ?
Sim wise that is
Hey can any one point me toward shards for assass, struggling to find the best info for it xxx
Just use the unholy set.
With the dps blood/frost shards.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/NwbxKPqznVt9LDdH#fight=8&type=damage-done can i get a log review 
Damn so fusion amp just became the BiS trinket for everyone, huh?
Just got heroic KT trinket and it sims way lower than that
No phial yet

ok dude.
I’ve done at least 10 runs for phial no luck
236 ooze is DPS downgrade over 226 guardian trink and 233 taza trink for me.
for real or troll lol?
oh ok lol just seen every one trying to get it, my fault.
Thank you for the critique! Helps a lot to know what to work on.
Ooze is good for warlocks
I doubt it
Everyone's trying to get phial
not ooze.
why? It's awful
i meant the guardian lmao
salvaged fusion amp
wouldnt mind the fist wep from painsmith fo sho
Guardian trink and phial likely to be bis for sub and sin, unless you can get a low CD on shadowgrasp
I doubt it’s good for them
why is shadowgrasp so much better for assa and sub than outlaw?
It is good.
Taza trink will be bis next tier for sure
Nah
Wild how good it is even at 233
I mean it’s okay
????
what taza trinket?
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
Ticking sack of terror is insane lmao
That's the wrong reply
It's really, really good.
Mastery 
?? So?
226 taza sims on par with 239 phial
It's absurdly strong even with the mastery
man my two target patch work for Sin sims like 900 more then my outlaw. I suck at 2+ targets with Sin =/
2t is where it's at for sin.
Absurdly isn’t a good word for it tbh.
That's the good stuff.
If a 226 trinket sims on par with a 239 version of our bis that's kind of exactly what "absurdly good" would be, no?
like i on the nine, im only doing 300 more dps then the eye...
The eye is not a 2t fight
im doing some thing so wrong...
yea i know lol. im saying with another target im only doing 300 more dps.
But nine is not a 2t fight either
They're both similar.
They both have multiple targets for some periods of the fight
uwu
I mean I sim like 50% more with a secondary target.
A second target is nuts for sin.
Feelcrafty

The nine is more 2t on mythic but still more ST
Not fate. Kt is more AoE than 2t
Not really any true 2t fights this tier
The nine and eye probably closest
Maybe I'm just salty I'm always doing rings on fate tho
just trying to make a list of what fights i should just roll with outlaw over sin
None
None of them
Outlaw bad
Outlaw is a pad spec that brings nothing to the table that isn't done better by a monk or DK (or sin)
Soulrender is half and half
Outlaw has the best sustained single target while cleaving
It’s just how the spec works
Never mind
That's just incorrect lol
Sin rips energy into primary target so much more effectively
Let alone affliction
oh boy are we feelcrafting damage profiles again
Just because you do a single target rotation as Outlaw in aoe
doesn't mean it's the best single target spec in aoe.
hey @balmy condor how does sin apl use shadowgrasp
on cd
ty 🙂
Tab targeting a rupture and garrote stops all your prio damage though, Cev!
Even though it gives full EP/envenom uptime
it's a slight gain to hold for flag haste on sub/sin, but it's so minor that it's not worth putting in imo
and for lust
so you're saying hold every flag for vendetta
if that's something that you hold
considering it's an optimization specifically for venth, and shadowgrasp in particular
surely
and drop totem with it


i can only be arsed to sync my first totem
Just get fae guardians so vend is up 10 seconds after flag is up
rest i just SEND
I got rank 8 or something when we killed it and I don't have sockets or phial
!guide
Idk how much it's dropped since
7:50 and 7400.
Im assuming any DPS over 8k has had omega gear or their 3set
Lol there's only one rogue at 9k, he has 239 phial, 239 fusion amp, unholy 3set, and zero downtime on eye (they have their overlap down)
I get that Outlaw is a pretty bad spec this tier for raiding. Why is it that the top end guilds in RWF mostly have brought Sub Rogues as opposed to Assa Rogues? They're both really good ST specs, but it seems that Assa is performing better looking at data on Warcraftlogs.
sub funnels boss dmg
Assa is more forgiving, so playing in PUGs and decent guilds mean that it's going to look better, but Sub does better ST damage with the right execution.
and for say guardian it just edges more dps for the tight enrage
Only with many adds. With only one sin funnels more
also sub has better burst than assa does
yes? and the bosses that are pure st or have multiple adds to funnel the rwf guilds with rogues played them as sub. the easier / 1-3 add target bosses were played as assass.
asssa has good sustain dmg and super unrealiable burst
vs adds that have to die dast sub is way better because sub with SoD and SD has burst+
Makes sense. Traditionally having a very bursty profile has been valuable in high end mythic raiding environments
Looking at data from Heroic, Sub has started outperforming Assa (on less parses mind you). Interesting.
Rogue feels so good right now. The buffs really hit great.
Assasination got buffed a bunch in patch 9.0.5
Remember when they were in the gutter?
Was wondering why mastery haste necklace was outsimming my crit vers neck by like 50 dps in dungeonslice even though the ilevel is the same and crit is good in aoe. Did stat weight sim and for some reason haste is atm the best stat by far even though my haste is like 19% so not very low 🤔
I mean crit is generally the most valuable stat in dungeons but sim doesn't like my necklace that has a lot of crit. It values haste more in dungeonslice than in single target for me right now which I think is weird
is nadja the best soulbind for assassin?
Nadja is good for pure ST/etc but theotar seems to be the move with M+
Down with the kyrian
Do you not want Haste on Obedience?
Sure if you only play Assassination
But if you wanna multispec, crit/vers is the better choice
ah okay, thank you. Crit/Haste if it's my assassination only legendary then?
that looks like you simmed patchwerk
Yep!
thanks thanks
32 PF runs in and I finally have my Phial. Deleting my key if it ever goes PF again lmao
With Obedience, is it better to just spam as many finishers or do we still go for max cp finishers?
Never max, always max - 1
hmmm..
wtf is that
Idk I don't think I changed anything
I guess I'll try to run the sim again
Is assa in m+ better with triple potency theotar?
Yes
yea, lashing, fan, poison
Legit considering buying a heroic sylv kill for vault chance since we're going straight to 5/10 first
@balmy condor Ok I was trying something like a week ago and forgot to remove it from the custom apl box. didn't make a difference though
if I am just coming back and am 220 ilvl should I get doomblade for the flexibility or just go for obedience?
Obedience is more flexible then doomblade
So with this. It would be 4 cp finishers and 5 with deep strat?
obedience gives you more options
alr will go for obedience then I had thought doomblade was more flexible guess its otherway around xD
obedience is pog on fights like KT where flag lines up w/ the phylactery
vers also good if ur healers are pepega
obedience is good for every type of content and even other specs if you feel like it
doomblade is a tiny bit ahead for pure st according to 
alr have 235 finality and 235 celerity so obedience would just be for sin tbh
but negligible
It's very weird that the ST patchwerk sims on Simcraft website use obedience for assa
Hi, assassination and finesse specs bring the same dps? (ST / DS)
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iJ9ByF5BBDKA1qdd9yNYmY
had to put my rogue on the backseat since my guild made me play disc priest 
lel. 226 Shadowgrasp outsims the Tormented Rack Fragment raid trinket >_<
because it was better when those sims were published
nah the sims have actually changed since then
SGT is good and rack fragment is not
wait, couldn't I look up the opener for my sim somewhere?
quiksim
ow, alright
according to simc website the latest sims were done yesterday so 
not how sims work
it just resims the profile that's submitted
there's "sample" characters I guess you can call them
the timestamp just shows when it gets simmed
but those sample characters don't change really
@balmy condor is our guy for the theorycraft 😛
I'm also the one that submitted that profile
so technically it's my fault that it's simming obedience
I see that makes a lot more sense 
I might submit a new profile though cause fusion amp got buffed
need to double check some stuff
also not true btw, all the pins and sims and stuff are updated
we did it live within like 2 hours of the announced fix :P
"we"

man does the sims by himself
while 200 people watch
I thought mastery was a dead stat for assa but recently seeing a lot more people running crit mast?
I never make mistakes
in my life
ever
(don't fact check that)

damn guardian trinket now beating shadowgrasp totem 
hey mate
will you share updates on the sims pinned here?
I am curious what caused the dos changes in sims, trinkets? simulationcraft.org
last weeks changes
yeah I'll update pins eventually
it's just that fusion amplifier was undersimming, especially for sin
and that got fixed
the other thing not reflected is the set bonuses having ranks
so just needs a resim
aha ok thanks
probably will do it later tonight or tomorrow
much appreciated sir
wait what obedience bis for sin?
Is EP only worth taking if you can constantly keep the buff up? @balmy condor
always has been
it's a gear thing from what I know
no
it's just good
because its technically not the best
but im not sure where pins say that
pins have doomblade ahead
in ST
All my sims put doom ahead
need to rerun that
what site has the trinket comparisons?
yea i meant the sims
herodamage or bloodmallet idr
Ultimately it comes down to your gear too @gloomy knoll
so is there new sims for sub also or just sin @balmy condor ?
thanks
set lvls were not in before
the other ones are still decent too but yea
i actually dont know if the one we have is lvl 1
or 5
but if its 1
we about to get 3 k dps
gonna rerun both
although tbh we wont have rank 5 until 1 month or more from now so
anyone willing to look through my sylvanas log
so uh how worth is the blood set bonus at 2 gems(haven't got any other gems than blood)
How do you properly use Fusion Amp.
You push the button
blood set is decent at 2 but how far are you from shadow set
as long as you can get all the shadow ones at 3 next week you're fine
as rank 4 will take 2 weeks on all shadow gems
shadow set lvl 3 takes 60 embers total
just do the substraction with what you can spend
yea but im telling you to save 60 to insta upgrade them when you get them
there are 9 in total if you clean at least normal every week
im not planning on upgrading anything don't worry
you will have them eventually
im talking bout the set bonus

The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear
through Top Gear.
Haste > Versatility => Critical Strike => Mastery
thats old ^^^^^^
Sim your self though is correct

wrong command
we are knocking our roster down to 10 people til guild kills fatescribe and kt
I am top raid dps, didnt make the cut cause rogue doesnt have utiltity
im about to go play ffixv with asmongold
Gross
thats's rough, buddy
That sucks dude
it feels really bad
dont really feel like putting as much work in anymore
2nd time this has happened. last time they put together an "A Team" to push they spent all night on Remnant
the teams that do that for normal are idiots
doing it to "recruit" cause our prog is behind
we are only on Fate instead of sylvanas
so 10 man roster til sylvanas
cause apparently the adds fall over with 10 people
behind compared to who?
: )
world firsts?
we went from top 50 on the server to 107
ecks dee
they told us to just pug fate and KT
raid leader did it so we should be able to
unless they're actively going for world/realm firsts is kinda stupid
just frustrating, really starting to lose desire to play
In my guild we have an A core which is the hardcore prog, and the B core which is a more casual but still aiming for prog group
im mostly on the B for time constraints
tbh, i would just find a new guild. That team sounds like they are idiots
Dang, just step inside the raid and you are top 20 on my server lol
big servers are a different world...
Who cares that just means you died. Your numbers on every other boss are great.
No one is going to discard your app because you died on your first kill of a new boss.
Now if you had 4 kills and died on every one that might raise some questions.
its undesireable to me personally unfortunately, I dont want to apply to a guild looking half assed like that
I hate to be that guy, but this channel is way way off topic from the woes of guild rosters
feel free to dm about it

hey just wanted to double check with deeper stratagem it's ok to use finishers at 4 cp?
no
haha ok so mut even at risk of overcap
i thought that might be right but wanted to double check
Anyone have edge of night yet? Does the proc give the purple smoke like it should or is it still bugged?
Ty
toadie, there’s more to logs than the color of the number next to ur dps 🙂
Hmmmmm - so many rogues using phantom fire
idk why agility sims better for me ever since the addon started
think agi/stones are just a more consistent safe choice, oils/phantom is kind of a dice roll with rng, but nice if you get lucky, i also think they changed phantom fire this patch iirc? haven’t looked into it much cuz i’m a stone/agi pot guy
didnt they change the proc or something on phantom whispyr or am i completely making that up?
they made it do less dmg and proc more but still more rng than agi pot
agi will get u for example every time 200 dps, PF can get u 150, can get u 250
pf can highroll really high
it can proc a lot and ALSO crit
agility is way more smooth
for assa i like agi pots a lot better i still use oil because i have like 30000 of them tho
worth saving salvaged fusion amplifier trinket for 30s for vendetta?
Haven't played with CT in ages. How should I effectively use it on Roh-Kalo? Spam it when adds come out or only make sure the dot is up until dead?
you dont spam CT, its just a "keep it up" dot
Yeah, I didn't know if the intital hit on use would be more beneficial than the dot. Considering the adds only last a few seconds. Thank you though.
if youre talented into it for that fight, you can also use it in ST outside of shiv windows
is there a way to sim domination sets?
is there a way to sim it without an actual set?
trinkets are not affected by spec mechanics
top gear, just sim the gems
how much of a dps increase was it? @cerulean nest
@balmy condor 
upgrade your gems kanye my man
