dumb question, does anyone know if you get someone to trade you a cloth piece (or any other piece for other classes) that has a domination socket that normally that armor type doesnt have in that slot, can you have 2 domination gem set bonuses at once
the cooldown timings and shti really fucking do it for me
hold cds on pull for phylactery
then hold cds for lust
I swear i thought i was bugged with sbs thrre
nah, most adds in sanctum dont refund SBS
Fatescribe does
technically yes, but it would be a HUGE loss
Eye nine pain nalls
eyes on eye dont, orbs on nerzhul dont, big adds on sylvanas dont, nothing on kelthuzad does
like a crazy dps loss
and the agi from that item
ye
cause it would be an int piece
the set bonuses got buffed though didnt they? so say you had rank 5
i dont realistically think itd be worth, but the concept seems interesting anyway
i imagine it's like trying to use the 15% main stat proc ring from wod, the stat loss is way too big
that ring is ~180 dps loss if anyone's curious
which is smaller than i expected
i remember trying to mess around with it in bfa
What are the best ST trinkets? Gaurdians on use and phial? lots of people using the Sack out of Tasavesh.
there was uldir though when demo locks used the tier set from tomb of sarg
until it got nerfed
can tasavesh items be upgraded with valor or nah? havent even run it yet
nope
thats a shame
am I doing something wrong guys when I sim myself it is saying I do more dmg as a necrolord rather than a vampy boy
i mean, even at max renown theyre very close, and venthyr final renown soulbind is stronger than the necro one
the final renown for venthyr looks crazy good
most sims are full renown sims, people tend to forget that
Its still awsome for keys tho and it aint that far behind in ST
little over 400dps
jesus
i did! does it not show up in the sim?
oh well yeah, just got it. figured id save and upgrade dyz and zed all the way first
lol
is that not recommended? lol
the set bonus enables at your lowest gem rank
no
so you're playing rank 1 set bonus
yeah
which is where all teh dam is from
oh shit what
the set bonus gains based on the level of the set
we love dom sockets
so you're getting a level 1 bonus
i had no idea lmao
u realise the diff between max rank and rank 1 is like 700 or something right
pepelaff
well off to korthia i go
i mean ur not gonna get it max rank for a while anyways but yea
rank2 and 3 set bonus is gonna be >>>>>>>> having dyr to max
yeah wouldve waited to upgrade them all together if I'd known
oh well
alright we at rank 3 now
lets see
also why is obedience siming less that the envenom leggi ?
because it do less dam wow magic
thats more like it
saved by you guys once again
now instead of 200 agi on the pop you get 700
what a world
is there anything you do to play around it purposefully, or just full send and whenever it procs it procs
might want to look at it
but from what i see its kind of rng
if its 1min to 1 min 30
may be worth to make adjustments
with rank 4 and 5
as it ballons crazily
i'll wait for you big brains to come up with the answer to that one
also frost set may be a dark horse for some specs
Sorry, the unholy set bonus gave you ~10% dps increase?
around that yes
Fucking hell, not dropping them is getting more painful
Gg! ❤️
for the next few weeks it feels real bad yeah
there are people who sim nearly 2k more than me, though they are outliers
2k is like.. a big number
Yeah that’s actually obscene
is it people lucky enough to get 3 unholy already?
i don't think it's that rare now, tbh
ive yet to see an unholy shard yet, all blood and frost for me
On that fatty 0 unholy shards atm
i have 8/9 gems but no helm
2 blood, one from the quest or whatever
and only 1 dropped on normal/hc this week
its so random which ones you get, some people have nearly all of them others have none of the ones we ought to
the cringe thing is that if i don't loot helm next week i have to make a decision on potentially going r2 frost set bonus since it's like
15 embers for ~350 dps short term
Might as well right?
That's exactly the position that tisu is in XD
I may have already screwed that up by upgrading my one frost one too much
maybe the eye chest shows up in my vault or something
and i become blood gamer
jk prolly not that sounds awful
i also only need helmet
and if it does not drop on hc or normal
may also become a blood gamer
blood for the blood god
funny thing is i still miss frost dps gem and blood extra life gem
i'm missing 1 frost gem and a blood enabling chest/unholy enabling helm so
idk
guess i just roulette it
and go with w/e the fuck i land on
play the hand you are dealt
blood in itself is pretty decent tbh, but everyone knows as soon as you commit to blood out of annoyance like 7 helms drop the next week and you get all 3 unholy shards and kms
a lot
struggle, got 1 frost gem in my gear ':d
i did the math and rank 2 set and you can still get unholy to rank 3 next week
at r3 on my profile atm (having dyz and bek on at all t imes anyway) it's like ~800 dps for unholy, ~690 for blood and like 400 for frost lol
How
(that and i already have r3 bek from before they posted scaling sets)
I heard frost might need to get buffed cuz it's not good for anyone
heheh
Thats RNG for ya. Some ppl get to enjoy superior dmg early when they get good rng while others take a back seat all tier waiting.
How could it be dark horse
imagine killing sylvanas 4 times
Thats a dumb guild
and not getting daggers
i was actually so set i was getting dagger today
haven't looted a boss in like 7 years
Cap
What guild benches you for not having full unholy set week 2?
I smell cap for sure
i think literally 1 person in my guild has 3 set enabled on this weeks prog
with a few people sitting on the cusp, just needing 1 shard or helm
We have 0 in ours. Upto guardian HC
The only people getting sat for not having uh set week 1 are on limit and echo
for sylv do we keep blindside or go ep?
We cleared full normal last night in 2 hours. Heroic guardian prog for 30 mins thrn called it
No execute phase, no point of going bs or zoldyk or whatever
You pretty much only go bs/Ds on guardian I think. The rest are ep/vig fights
is secret technique good for sin?


Trinket ?
yes
Soleah trinket?
soleah trink
Oh

Lol
I am big brain guys
Huge brainz
It's not good tho
for all specs
I was about to ask "is roll the bones good on sin" 
I replaced it last night. Its a vanilla stat trinket
Speaking of trinkets the garrosh crit one seems to be ok
it was good on ptr now its kind of meh compared to dmg ones
I got it for heroic and it has averaged about 40% uptime on fights with a couple back to backs
I got the 226 guardian trinket and its doing 5% of my dmg
whens a safe time to shadowstep to dodge the eye of jailer's boss 's beam? when the beam is past the halfway point?
I will 100% take a dmg trink over it but it's better than I thought it was
depends on when it begins
Yeh when its to thr aide
if he begins right you have to wait a bit
Im using quill and amplifier
I mean it simmed higher than my shadowgrasp so
if he begins on the left?
I never used it idk anything about the range etc
facing the boss btw
you can see it really easily
The range is pretty far tbh
Let's spam dos I guess, must be good in dungeon slice as well I guess
Don't listen to hachadino he would just wait for me to shadowstep and jump to me smh
Or in something with hectic cleave 
Definitely not a sigma male move
Yeah it is cuz it auto swaps to your current target
why wouldnt it be the same on both sides regardless then
The part you shadowstep to is offset by a fixed amount
ah kk
What’s the hype for shadowgraps trinket?
So when beam goes left to right you just follow the group with the add
there's no hype
It's good
its been good for 6 months
And then shadowstep the boss
And end up back in front of him
While having full uptime and dotting the add essentially
Just asking cause I never used
My uptime on the eye was like 99.8% lmao
It's yuge


CUTIWHISP UWU
this fight is dogshit
Heroic?
It seems so easy idk
We just died from old age with scorn on us we had 2 afk healers
yo do we hold vendetta for flag with obediance? I realize in a perfect world it lines up perfectly but if not
Never hold vendetta unless you don't have uptime on boss
You would hold flag if vendetta is coming up in 30 or less I believe
What problems you having
But then you would perma hold flag
Na
Cause it's default cd is 1:30
You hold it for 3rd flag to sync I think
Bruh I've discovered a real first world problem
I have PI anxiety
Am I actually a pumper? Or is it just the PI
Wut
depends how much you beg for it
Would I pump if I didn't have PI??
Pi is not that good, it's about 400 dps on a 5mn sim
ye if you ask for it you should be
Hold me friends
Our guilds lock cries for it to the point where he jumped off platform when he didn't get it one time. It's so sad
He made me make a macro I just press it when I want it lmao
Yeah asking for pi is for sure cringe
disgusting
Hahahhhaa
do you not raid with any other players with arms or something
Nobody seems to care tbh
Yea my priests like me a lot aswell because I never hold vendetta. I did fatescribe with 25% uptime on PI 
PI does go to DK army tho so we alternate sometimes
Worst boss to pi a sinrogue ever
My priest has asked me if I want it Perma a few times lately and I said no
Bruh do it it feels so good
Actually PI are for DKs
Na u Don't need it
Like I'm global capped I love it
Give it to uh dk for army
The best possible PI is to PI a venthyr boomie every 3mn
Just shitting out envenoms
It's better than anything else every 2 mn
I have so much haste I'm time traveling
@sonic schooner why you wiping on eye
Oh
Idk just cloak it or something
I have the moan weakaura also
I'm just a degen at this point
Wow
Someone linked it to me and I just never removed it
Yea sure I ll buy myself 5s for nothing because my fken DP is casting shadowmend

Telling u
Afk healers
2.3k hps ar the end of the p1
As dp

Just vial 5head
He is
XD
We were in middle of pull
And u hear a random saying "woah echo did almost kill sylvanas"
We were all full life and the RL said "jump off we wipe imma explain u guys something rq"

. /Gquit
This is mythic I assume right
kt is not a fun fight i agree
When leveling shards, do we level all the unholy even then go to blood damage?
does it scale off the lowest one? Is what I heard
yes its the lowest level shard in the set
That's not accurate, just get rank 5 on all unholy
its worth more than the 1% on the blood/frost shards
i enjoyed kt in heroic O_o
i didnt have to do anything except tunnel the boss though
was kind of fun
sylvanas though...pretty shit so far
pushing p2 on sylv at 2:05 is very unepic

So, should I do Obedience or Doomblade to 262 this week? I do M+ pretty casually, just get my S1 mount mostly and try to push mythic raiding as much as I can.
Watching everyone's DPS go up in p2 cause they pad on the adds smh
I find solace in the fact that in p3 I'm gonna pump them
True
I was actually like "hmm maybe fire mage isn't so bad"
Then we get into p3 and his DPS starts dropping

Does crimson tempest damage still rol over?
no, but it does pandemic
so refresh at 30% of application
the only thing that does rollover is mutilated flesh from doomblade
I remember it used to at some point
What does roll over mean
The damage compounds
Like if you mut and the bleed from doomblade does 100
And you instantly mut again, for another 100
It does a total 200
So where is the limit
Nice
But if you were to for example do the same thing with rupture
So there’s no timer?
Did you manage to redo those obedience sims? @balmy condor
Any time out of pandemic on that is loss
Just got out of raid
Ah np
No there’s still a timer, and the timer gets refreshed when you mut
O.o
man, sylv is such a fun fight in normal. can't wait for it to become horrid in hero and up
How did it go, king?

bridges are cursed
.>
Like okay, let’s do some examples right. We’ll start easy. For all of these when I refer to “mut damage” that’s the bleed damage, not the actual mutilate damage itself, we only care about mutilated flesh, the doomblade dot. So when you mutilate, that dot gets applied, very cool.
Ex1. Let’s say each mut dot is 100 damage total. They would tick for the duration, until that 100 damage is done, just like garrote/rupture, etc. if you then mut again for 100, you refresh the dot, but the damage isn’t lost. That first one is still doing damage, and the second one is compounding it. So you have 200 damage in total, except instead of 8 seconds, it’s like 10 seconds right?
Ex2. Any other dot (garrote/rupture/CT/poisons, etc), functions based on pandemic. We have a command for it (!pd), but in essence, if your new dot you’re looking to reapply is 10 seconds long, you can reapply that with up to a maximum of 3 seconds left on the currently, on that target, existing dot. The new dot will be 13 seconds long, and do the damage of the new dot. Garrote is the easiest, 18 second dot, 30% is 5.4 seconds. If you apply it with 4 remaining, you get a new 22 second garrote. If that first garrote is empowered by subterfuge, and you reapply, that bonus is lost, because the damage is calculated from the new garrote.
So tldr: mutilate bleed, can think of it as a funnel (the mutilate) full of water (the dot damage) draining into a bucket (the actual dot you see on the target). More mutilates = more funnels and more water, but you still only have 1 bucket. Every other dot, you replace the funnel with a new funnel, and toss the old one
Welcome to whispyr’s novel
I’m taking a dump, nothing better to do
They asked
So like with cleave when playing doomblade,
Should you mut for builder one 1 target
And cleave the bleeds only
Or is it null
Gratz btw
We’re on guardian atm
If you can kill painsmith you can kill kelthuzad
Just needs a lot of pulls to plan cds and shit
the pinned messages say to put doomblade on a cloak, but i see lots of people putting it on gloves. why is that?
probably because they had the gloves from before
gloves are a dom socket piece so its not a good place to put a legendary
Yeah they had gloves from last tier
If they’re crafting it on gloves
They’re actually fucking idiots
alright good to know ty lol
Np
worth holding fusion amplifier until you have flag haste? or does haste not impact it?
Hey what guides do you guys recommend on YouTube? Or what Youtubers should I watch for pve ?
I dont trust dalaran gaming and marcellian etc
damn how you gonna do my boy marcellian like that
didn't know her boobs were on the loot table
Infexious


anyone have a good chaos bane weakaura?
i use this one
Anyone killed Sylvanas twice confirm if she’s a 100% shard drop
she is not
no it is not
Thanks
Thank you for answering my annoying questions when I get bored at work
@balmy condor you the real G
Im like 90% sure you are guaranteed to get one a week at least
but it could just be RNG
yeah there's some nonsense bad luck protection shenanigans
I have dps frost + whole blood set but only 2 sockets
but honestly it's just easier to pretend like it's a 10-20% drop per boss similar to personal loot
At this point how you guys dont have set bonus active and all the shards?? 
!ambush
Macroing Ambush to Mutilate only works with the use of a addon.
It comes with the downside that it often requires multiple key presss.
Suggested addon to use(Gnome Sequencer):http://tiny.cc/mxb6tz
Showcase Video: #assassination message
Our second mythic boss prog didnt kill it sadly but guess who on our raid has set bonus active? 
Still have shit weapons tho
does not matter that much tbh compared to set
Set bonus was like 900dps increase in st sim
I have 2 unholy gems hoping for the 3rd one after reset 
Is it?
It’s only like 500 dps increase for me
Got my 3rd unholy shard last night, which is great. But it’s nowhere near 900 dps increase
In sims
remember to upgrade them to rank 3
Uh oh
Rank 2 set has me at an extra 827dps
otherwise it gets the lowest and cucks you
And what IF I pumped all my embers into the dps one 😅
dont worry first ranks are cheap
i have rank 4 dps one
so next week you can get rank 2 at least
but i dont have full set yet
its only 10 embers
Yeah ai got some spare
oh then go and upgrade them
rank 2 is only 10
rank 3 is 15 each
so upgrade zed first
as that one also does dmg
then next week oth
Yeah, thanks
Ah ye seems about right that the set bonus staggers too
shard of deez go brrr
This is a sample opener sequence for my assa rogue… and i dont get why the sims(and even top necro players in wcl) use vanish mut env mut, not vanish env mut env in 3 sec MA window
I wondered this too but I just put it down to CPs with seal fate
I’ve been doing shiv mut vanish env mut pray4sfproc envenom
Is it?
Sims have me as full haste
Is everyone going Nadija assassination and Theotar Sub?
and draven for outlaw because i only play it for memes
Yep this, i have dps one on 4 and others at rank 3 atm
Yeah it’s cheap to get them all to 3
you can get 1 to rank 5 per week so on tuesday i should have the rank 5 set bonus 
that is baller
!guide
i used 20 to upgrade bek to rank 3
Wtf how
I have 2 gems at 4 and one at 3
No way we get enough for r5 x3 next week
my man is living in the future
I guess you might be 5 short
but you should have like 160 total embers on reset tuesday
just kill until kel M for those extra embers ezz
its 55-65 per week if you do everything
Best Combination for each soulbind
Links to the sims can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/2xav5yk8
Includes the new dom set scaling from gem levels, as well as the simulation fix for fusion amplifier

Got a couple haste / crit peices last night from raid. Sitting at 31% haste and 28% crit. Still pulling less dps than my sub....
As you should.
@balmy condor is it normal you don't sim 1 hm sylv + 1 nm sylv in your dagger comparison sims ?
I got those
ok ok nice ty
A m+ main hand at a high ilvl with hc oh is better than hc mh and normal oh
Not missing out on much honestly
Unlesss you play Sub
Yep, i'll sim it for myself tho, i was just curious
Sub is better with two Sylv daggers ?
Oh that's why I sim almost twice damage
Been hitting some training dummies and found out heirmir gemstones proc is almost impossible to line up with 3rd(or more) vendetta
Lol i was so hyped with the 100% crity
i noticed eye of the jailer parses, that vigor and elaborate planning wins there
Even with venthyr cov?
yeah
Maybe it spawns adds
hey guys got a question when i switch to venthyr i still getting renown for m+/worldboss ?
it does but its every now and then
to catchup
yes
ah thx 🙂
elaborate planning, and vigor are winning in multiple SOD heroic bosses
for both venth and necro, i might have to try this
it's just easier to play, less rng, and you have more energy to pool/play around
they're close enough to where you can really play whatever you want
ye
hello
the stuff u do is bussin, helps me out a lot
are there stunnable mobs in the raid? during fights?
i see a lot of kidney shot bleed talents
KT adds are stunnable
did you know that bussin comes from the latin "bussy"

really?
But doesnt account for details
a lot of people just take internal bleeding for fun tbh
it's in no way better than prey on the weak usually
and it barely beats out an envenom in terms of damage
but it only applies on stunnable enemies right?
Yep
correct
Its tick rate is fixed, not regarding how much CP you use. Like 9~10 ticks per kidney
im kind of flexible so what would u reccomend to a necro assa?
I use BS+DS in Guardian
Soooo much easier as patchwerk boss
Just had my first 90+ parse 😄
Compared to Sluge
wait a fucken second, am i the slow one of the bunch?
everyone is running elabo, vigor
im gonna have to sim myself
and test it out in future raids
I run ES and Vigor, I'm simming higher with DS but I find the playstyle to be slow and boring so I stuck with Vigor 😅
Grats:)
i lucked out and got both shadowgrasp and IQD, i've not got enough fingers/keybinds to have them both assigned. What should i macro one of them into?
venthyr ability
i am still necrolord for another 20 minutes
then idk, get fucked idiot
Are you using modifier keys?
I would highly suggest finding a place for double on use though
You shouldn't have too too many binds tbh
we played double on use for a long time in bfa, and it's been really good in shadowlands too
i user 1-5, R, F, T, Z and `/tab + shift alts for them. Am i missing something?
i guess i also have 6 bound but it just feels too far away
q, e, g, v
oh also middle click + shift middcle
y x c v b f g ^^
yeh
^
unghhh i should really unlearn using q and e
what do you use them for
to movce
löl ^^
then what do you use a and d for
q generator e finisher
Is there anyone who can take a look on my logs? Having a raid tonight again and would like to improve my 70ish logshttps://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/pd8PhLYBVbQ17FJk#fight=14&type=damage-done
tbh i barley used a and d
I feel like just learning to g is going to be easier
A is defensive cd D is offensive cd ofc
i was using mouse wheel for trinkets for a while but i've started using it for defensives and i love it
There's so many buttons you're not usings
thanks for the tips
cheese the grapple instead of having the downtime, missed a couple of shiv casts holding, garrote/rupture uptime is a little low on eye, looks better on nerzhul. I think the main thing here is that you're pretty undergeared
yeah you can use all left side of F4, 5, t, g, b those easy to handle
you also didn't cast vanish with vendetta randomly
but idk what that's about
probably just missed the button or something
226 dagger, pretty terrible trinkets, no sylv dagger, no dom gems, lot of 220-230 gear
doesn't help
Yeah im missing domination set. Have a bit more gear since last raid. Will see how it will look tonight. That vanish thing probably slipped. Usually poping everything than vanish. And usually have shiv+vandeta into vanish.
the actual rotation looks fine
but like a sylv dagger and a low rank unholy set would probably be around 500 dps pretty easily
Should i be considering doting third target or just to focus 2 of them. For example on nerzhul i dot 1 orb and continue on boss till the orb is 'attackable'. Should i try to dot up a second orb too?
Okeyy. Thank you very much for the tips.
in m+ with subterfuge, do you reapply garrote right away if you are on 1-2 targets ?
Mhm. Started playing DS now and I realized I really don't like it :-)
Going back to Vigor I think
It just feels weird to have to wait for Garrote energy in opener.
Ds always takes time getting used to
I guess I will give it a try again at 25+ haste or so
Currently at 21 it's meh to me.
And we did not even kill Nine so I don't think the dps loss matters for me 
that 4% haste isn't worth shit
Don't have Unholy anyways so I don't do damage 
Hey guys i need to ask u .. how hard is it to get grps in M+ as rogue over all when u pug? I have a Guildie who are cluess about the rogue life
10% haste only accounts for about 2 apm
Let me
a bit here :-(
not too bad
ty
I pugged my way from 0 score to about 1600 in a week
took me maybe 10-15 minutes to get into a key
Yeah you shouldnt have any problem get into keys as rogue
Ye.
Still recommend networking and adding people to your list that play well
Easiest way to get regular good groups
It’s all about score tbh
If people see a low score on him, doubtful he’s getting into groups
I hate it, but it is the way the world works now apparently
easy if you have a good score from last season. People looking at that still
^
I mean I had like 2k score
I got no score in s2, and 2300io in S1, so took me 1h30 to get in a 14 key
you forget, I'm not a very big gamer
Wait what
Also, we all know here rogue is god class. The lesser classes don’t see it as such and will always prefer range dps
I was 4/10 mythic in nathria, 5/12 in nyalotha, 3/8 in eternal palace. Did +21's in nyalotha, +19 is my highest from last season
I'm not some crazy player
this was my season 1
this is my post season
what is the best opener for necro sin on ST raidboss?
i think it was SBS SND muti garrote rupture
sbs slice mut gar rup vend shiv vanish mut env mut
ooh
Sbs - snd - mut - garr - rup - shiv - vend - vanish - mut - env
Fuk
Too slow on phone
haha
why u dont get 3 cps before vend shiv
because it's not a gain
I wonder how much behind Zoldyck the Doomblade is in dungeon slice
Only going to be able to craft one next week
Depends on dungeon
I sometimes run doomblade on tyrannical top which is fine
But zoldyck is way more valuable with more trash
So almost all dungeons
I need to get doomblade off my shoulders so making it into a cloak first
Because every global you fok instead of mut, you’re losing doomblade value
so there will be a few weeks with just a R4 Zold
what daggers would be best to farm except sylvanas ?
the highest ilvl you can get your hands on
if you cant get obedience yet, which one should you make? MA? Doomblade? casual player
So
ok, got some 233 from PF but wasn't sure if it would be worth upgrading it
Mists, NW, PF all drop daggers
I’d do it
Unless you have a phial to upgrade I guess
yeah i think i'll wait for reset to see if i can get a phial / dagger at 252
Yeah that’s the dream
cause long term i think it would be wasted valor tbh
Well, if you’re progging that extra dagger damage can be valuable
I don’t care about other specs tbh, but ye phial is one of the best upgrades we can get gear wise I think
But your best bet is to sim upgrading your weapon and decide if it’s worth spending valor on
will assa rogue pull forward in M+ this few weeks? since heirmir has the mastery soulbind?
just curious
If you see a phial in the vault dont pass it up
way more opportunity for weapons to drop then bis trinket
Ye true
yeah it's like a +74 dps increase, but that's like 1000 valor
in the short term the weapon might be a bigger upgrade, but you may never see that phial again
for purely ST fights in raiding, you think venthyr sub is better than venthyr assa? Checking logs it doesn't really matter what I can see
Even necro Assa have a lot of spots in the top 100 on bosses like nerzul
Maybe not at current gear levels, but sub is gonna pull ahead soon
I see
Yeah because it’s really good
Sbs can be very valuable when some form of adds come into play
Remnant is not pure ST
is it worth upgrading IQD?
Guardian is. When you wanna see ST, look at that one
YAY
haha
will probably switch back to venthyr when we're deeper down the renown road. Don't wanna hassle with that now when the meta is still changing a little
Also Tazavesh, I think maybe the Band fight?
But only 233.
I mean, it's decent for mid tier stuff to get you going.
I got 252 dagger and IQD first vault. That probably depleted all my luck this patch. Took the dagger, not getting any Vetter.
I would probably have done the same
Altho phial might have been better to take long term
is it worth using envenom or rupture at 3 combo points at all times to not overcap on seal fate crit bonus points?
Yeah, but I only raid heroic, we did normal once so no Sylv dagger for me for at least a month.
Try to get into some pugs.
pugs 1 shot sylv now
in normal?
yh
ooh
hmm, not sure
yeah im unsure as well, cant find any info about it
I use db
i think raids favor doomblade more but i cant really say that for everyone
probs guardian u would see obedience more in play
but DB is also very good
gotcha, thanks alot
my personal sims said that doomblade was a .7% st upgrade over obedience
i expected when obedience came out this week
people would be more sure of answers because people used it
it's just as far ahead as it was before
Is the frost set actually almost as good as unholy for assa?
depends on what your definition of "almost as good" is
like I said
if 2% is your definition of "really close"
then yes
it's really close
I'm still upsetti that I havent been able to come close to my simmed numbers, but I figure it's because I've been out of practice for awhile
On which fights?
HeroRotation could help you out a bit
Is that like wow analyzer or w.e
ingame addon that helps with rotation
good for people that want to start a class /spec
Idk if my rotation is off vs me not optimizing uptime on bosses
also idk if I'm losing dps by spending my combo points at 3 or higher
like if I mutilate and hit 3 combo points with no shiv or garrote pandemic openings I spend it on envenom
or rupture if that pandemic window is open
You use builder until max-1, don't use finisher at 3cp
alright
What are we looking for in a fight to determine whether to go EP+Vig or BS+DS?
!stats
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
There was a video not long ago comparing the rotation helpers (not sure if it was a serious suggestion above), but HeroRotation came in last in terms of dps increase from use. I think Hekili came out on top
That sounds crazy cringe
Herodamage uses the actual simAPL from what I know
But like
Why are we ranking dps gains from rotationhelpers to begin with
They’re meant to teach you the basics not maximize your damage
Think it was mainly aimed at new players and people picking up alts
best way to learn for secondaries is to sim yourself
crit + haste still 1.87 for me even i have 31 crit and 27 haste unbuffed
anyone able to test dual wield daggers damage in overall? like %
how many envenoms should I be aiming to fit into an shiv window?
3
kk
!wa
Assassination WA's:

You don’t really stress trying to get 3 envenoms into shiv window
You press shiv on CD, as long as rupture is up on the target. If you end up reapplying rupture during shiv it’s not a big deal. The only thing you do not do inside shiv window is reapply CT
for sure
I’m not sure what the question is
2 daggers equipped and a boss killed then % damage in overall like %4 or %3
What about the infamous Assassin dagger/fist build 
like auto attack damage?
@balmy condor
Think they mean sylvanas daggers?
How are we supposed to know what u mean lol
Depends on the ilvl of the sylvanas dagger
About 6.5% for double mythic, 5.5% for double heroic, 4.5% for double normal
I use CT against 2 or 3 stacked targets?
You use CT on any number of targets, including ST.
If talented into it, you use in ST scenario too yes
Ah alright thank you sirs
If pure ST fight you normally use PB
Oh ye, assuming you picked it was a given I guess :D
Did not use it at all, too lazy to change talents
It slaps on the nine
:^)
Ye, we did one night of mythic so far. Got eye to 2nd intermission, was a bit messy but fine.
Tonight finally 2nd raid.
6 ilvl higher on avg. Eye should be a pushover
I really wish poison bomb was a base part of our kit and hidden blades got removed and replaced with the bfa trait echoing blades
Same just one night of mythic so far
Tonight we reclear normal 10/10 one shot for more shards
These shards gonna make it hard to have alts for us normies
Not doing an alt this tier, too lazy and annoying systems
Depending on what my RL says today, I have to make an alt
Will see, might turn to other games a bit earlier this tier and just do dailies + 10 m+ + progress
Most likely ele shaman
Good class.
Idk, as long as I don't raid top 50 world I won't let myself "get forced" into alts.
Well it’s really the question of whether or not my rogue gets benched
And no reason to Push there, I like my casual 2 day guild 
We have 3 rogues on the roster atm :D
We have 2 and we are neck and neck but he was in guild first
He’s gearing a boomie to let me rotate in just in case
:’)
RWF is really close this tier eh
I can't wait to see what shenanigans Blizz are pulling with Sylv
I hope its more than just "more health"
There’s a 98% chance it’s just “more health”
15 min into the fight, with wipes to enrage, there's no mythic-only phase
Unless 👀
blizz needs to stop with these insanely long final boss fights
every other time people have thought they might do something cool
it was garbage
at least in recent history
so just expect it to be garbage
hey with obedience do we hold on flag between vendettas or just use it on cooldown and wait for vend to align it with
if you're not missing on flag casts yes. But sitting on Obedience-Flagellation for 50 seconds to align with vendetta is probably not the play
Wonder if it’s better to hold vendetta for 3rd flag if u don’t lose a cast of vendetta
if you don't lose a cast, aligning these two will be big in terms of damage
having tried both, sub has it easy. with assa, it's a challenge to go past 25 stacks to make the most of it.
if you're unlucky you'll hit 23 with lust, otherwise it's usually 27 with lust
as a group, or get boosted
yeh can a dh tank solo it
U can skip bosses
Idk I’m sure they could but that’s more effort than it’s worth IMO
Just queue up with them
Ez fast queues
Once you get into the mid 30s do covenant campaign
Celestial Guidance + Sinful Revelation or Celestial Guidance + Lightless Force or x2 Lightless Force for m+?
32-36ish
Usually celestial+lightless. Sim it
Nah
I just use celestial+sinful cuz cba changing enchants for raid and m+
Orly
I mean I use celestial and sinful anyway but didn’t know it was a bait
To use lightless
Just use lightless for a day u will see your waves hitting nothing and the pepega dmg that does
0.01% pog
Loool
Had no idea glad I switched my lightless back to sinful
The real question is eternal skirmish or eternal stats on chest?
I see most say skirmish
Idk if whispyr fixed them yet or not last night
He said he had some optimization to throw in
Not a big diff in sim, I d say skirmish for st and stats for aoe but the diff is so mnimal
Sim yourself and see tbh
man i spent entirely too long working on a weak aura that's basically worthless
Oh nuuu
back in legion i had this weak aura that tracked my breath of sindragosa for my frost dk
What it is about? 😔
didn't really do much other than tell you, after the fact, whether or not you sucked
lately i've been doing a poor job pooling into flag, or just having bad luck with cp during flag
big number is how many finishers i hit during the window, small numbe ris how many CP i used on those finishers
Why do you need to know how many finishers you used when you know how many overall stacks you have? :p
Hey guys, can someone give me a hand about improving that parse? I cant figure why im that low on dps.
https://es.warcraftlogs.com/reports/9XAP317pdwWTQnyR#fight=32&type=damage-done&source=32
honestly @quasi ledge the whole thing is useless really
like you said, you know how many stacks you have, you can subtract the initial 5 from it to see how many cp you used
!guide
the best i can tell you is that i did this... for funsies?
Fair enough :)
the api was annoying in parts though so it was more just doing it because it got annoying
like so far as i can tell, the combat log for finishers doesn't tell you how many cp was used
so you have to track that separately
so i can be like "oh, my cp went from 6 > 0 at the same time as i used this finisher, it was a sixer"
When you said about the Breath WA I thought you were gonna do one that tracked damage inside Shivs
I used to use that WA on my DK and it was fun to try get a new record each time
@quasi ledge i could do one of those for you if you want, just remind me tomorrow
that'd be easy honestly
i don't think i actually want that though
shiv + flag seems to be -50% crit for me
god forbid i fire them both at the same time, every mut giving 2 cp is many sads
mix in a vendetta? i might as well afk
i'll get some fluke boss mechanic that wasn't on the timer
Yeah, it'll be cool the first few times but I wouldn't keep it
the finisher tracker was more because i think i keep missing finishers just outside the window
I had 98% crit with powers and MA on first boss, didn't crit at all on Mutilate from opener and vanish, good times
