Also it depends on the length of the fight, if you can get another Flag cast in
personnaly next week nadja sim -10 vs theotar so idk if i will switch to nadja again actually
It's only a +75 DPS increase for me to go Theotar and that's including a ring enchant... sigh
Does it req dashing leggy ?
when did soulbind change to theotar?
oh right, sorry i missed that. thank you
Hi! im thinking what to get for my lgendary as ventyr. Saw most of sin spec top charts dps are using doomblade?
is it doomblade the new BIS Now ? i am unholy
guys do you think that frost - dashing assa will outsim obedience sub on ST?
or what are your thoughts about it
in general
It won’t out sim sub
So do the nerfs stay reverted and unholy will remain bis for us?
Most likely no.
The nerfs should be coming next reset based on what I’ve read.
We don’t know anything for sure until they are reimplemented.
I completed all 3 shard sets yesterday. And only have the helm to make unholy set, I am fighting not to upgrade the unholy gems lol
I haven't raided at all this week and have 6 shards. I should, in theory, complete at least 2 sets this week.
I got all shard since week 2 a guildie got 3 shard from start not even a bonus one
better i stay with my current 235 doomblade legendary then..
than waste with obedience, then after 2 weeks diferent bis again
lol
Personally I crafted the 262bonly for be able to trade cloak in raid
Rng of what?
Gems I suppose
shards and domslots
are you in a top10 guild?
Not even close
Top 100?
if not, be glad you failed the trial in that guild
Top 2k LOL
So it's fine
8/10 CN
They suck
If you didn't pass a trial because of gear, you don't want to be in that guild anyway.
Yeah I don’t think they know what they’re doing
u should apply to top 500
They said I don’t do enough dps
that doesn't mean you can't improve, but if the only reason was gear, it's kinda yikes
this is blessing in disguise
15 minutes after I looted my 3rd unholy shard
Player>gear
Share a log if that's the case
i saw the pin about the nerfs beeing reverted, does this mean the dashing scoundrel build is no longer a go ?
lol too many fights can you do if you just do mechanics soo idk about he gear thing they told you
Maybe there's little things u can do without having set bonuses, etc
Unless you're just a bad, bad player, they may be a shitty guild that doesn't know how to evaluate players other than raw DPS numbers.
That mean we wait the nerf or not next week
you can do 90 parse without gems tho
If I make mistakes, I know what they are
damn i wanna make a rank 6 leggo but i cant decide wich for raiding lol
really want to try out the dashing build
U sure about that? In heroic? With 230ilvl and no trinkets?
yes
in heroic yes, at least ilvl parse.
everyone worrying about losing double figures DPS for making X or upgrading X
just fuckin send it and play the game
My ilvl parse is fine
Main parses are horrid
I just got fusion amp and totem
And unholy set bonus
no trinkets? what you are applying to? LFR guild? you should have at least have decent trinket even with 226 ilvl
It's not that bad trinket lol
Instantly went up to 8k
bottom is no unholy, top is unholy
Well with 6 more ilvl you didn't just changed shard kojak xd
I just got 239 dagger a couple days ago
yeah that's fine. Either way, they have no clue and you are good without it, or they had good reason because you can still do decent dmg without gems, you know better than us tho, so I will believe you. Just wanted to state that you can parse decently without gems / bis trinket
Kk
Link a log. Let's see how people can help
Well personally as long boss died I don't care about my log
this is the way to play
you are right, on the top one I was also necrolord and bottom venthyr 
everyone is too obsessed with their parses
The day I will get pay for parsing maybe I will take more care xd
it can be fun if you have the proper toys
like people in my two day, fairly casual guild are obsessing over their parses
and we've not even killed HC Sylv yet
and they're trying to optimise for a pink parse
I'm only at 3/10 mm
Good parses are validation that you are doing the right things and your work is paying off
you can parse when you did everything to kill the boss.
If you do good parse but are not doing any mechanics when you need to, it's pointless
not really, there's a thing called padding
good parses are also indicator that you didn't get all of the mechanics
or that your guild vastly over gears the content
and that you padded it to fuck
so no i dont share that sentiment
Yep
I got 2 bombs on guardian and a 99th parse. There is no padding
??????
Sorry your parses suck
dude??????
you can still have good parses if you have to do mechanics lol
@jagged osprey that's absolutely not true at all
also bombs impact so little on guardian
you lose 2 seconds of uptime
thats a shit example
Enough that it screws with SoD and Flag timers sure
this is assa
🤣
Still can screw with flag or vend windows
dude...
let tank adds explode on fate scribe miss pad
Kill timer can screw tho
It's not a huge pad raid
you dont know what pad is
nah
again, sorry your parses suck and/or guild sucks
this is closer to the truth
You're more likely impacted again, by kill times or bad Unholy set proc than mechanics in this raid or so called "pad"
if your guild is average
and youre worried about your parsing
which is probably the vast majority of people here
then youre doing it wrong
same for my guild
this is quite fitting
You should be lol
If youre not worried about doing your best dps numbers youre trash
doing mechanics and having good numbers are not mutual exclusive, it makes no sense
Youre literally saying you shouldn’t worry about parses
if youre average or in an average guild
Want to run high parses. Run with ppl that parse high.
you're wrong
read what i fucking wrote
Yea
period
Don't want to put in the work to get in a guild that parses high. Then just play and have fun.
You still should
Link your parses, please.
???
I'm also interested
You're clearly a 99% parser, so link
Im not and thats not what i said
Kekekeke
If your best is a 70
Thats fine
But you should aim to hit a 70 every fight
Because doing your best is whats important
No, having fun is what's important
It's a fucking video game
If your fun is doing the most damage you can, great.
Some people just want to hang out and kill bosses with friends
Telling them their trash is asinine.
I like poke boss with dagga
Not everyone plays this game to be the best player they can be
point i was trying to make
if youre progging through heroic still
or if youre 1/10 2/10 mythic
your parses are gonna be shit and thats fine 😄
????????
??????????????????
The average WoW player doesn't even get AotC. Sure, most of us aren't average, but holy shit the conversations in here some times ... It's like you people forget it's a video game.
wrong though
There’s definitely some pad on a couple fights
holy
Depends what you mean by shit but thats not true
80 is shit 
Balls on smith get excluded. You can be up on KT is really about it
Yes you won’t be top 10 because of fight length and/or strats
Pad.....never
Such an emotionally charged conversation topic.
But you can be top 25 on prog lol (in the first weeks)
Nooooooo please 😦
compared to other raids sanctum is like pad free
got 81 on the eye so I'm good, right? 
The real question is… do you use fan of knives when walking through painsmith balls
Fatescribe and soulrender adds? Umm
Honestly yes. Especially if your guild is degen
INSANE :p
The adds need to die?
parses with shards
if you don't kill soulrender adds really really fast on mythic you die, how is that padding?
Ngl I’m 7/10hc blue parse Andy every raid my rotation gets cleaner tho and parses get better
All you can do mate, be better every day and you'll get great parses
If you’re blowing coolies and stopping dps for another add set=pad
lol you're so wrong dude
The adds need to die in Sancy D
padding is doing dps to things you dont need to be damaging to inflate your numbers
No you're just throwing strawmen into this argument to sound smart
i hit shit man
saving CDs is strat related
Imagine not hitting the boss at all times lol. Simply pretend you don’t speak English and ignore adds
like not blowing them is inting your raid
hahah might try that tonight
You’re not getting where I’m coming from
So, like 1/3 of KT? lol
From Normal?
I’m not saying the adds are purely pad
i cry to be in the wf group
I’m saying u CAN pad on them
coz the DPS MAN
...
No
Then it's not padding by your own argument
we talkin about PaRsEs?
hey changing subject, what expansion did u guys found was funnier to play assassin?
They need to die so how is dpsing them padding
......
shoulder bombs in legion was op and fun
Do you guys know how to read
Yea during kt just afk during adds be like “food 得走了” as long as you pump other fights they’ll be cool with it
you mean that 5s criticla after stealth?
yah
I miss 1 minute vendettas
i miss venomous wounds dealing damage
I miss Soul Capacitor shenanigans
I miss playing wow without having to care about what my parses would look like
i wish soul cap scaled well in timewalking its still funny to use though
Ya all jokes aside parses do kinda matter when you wanna pug heroic/mythic since ppl will get you
Vet you*
I don't care what my parses look like. I'm usually top 3-5 DPS regardless of what class/spec I play and I actually have fun with the game. (Although I'm debating quitting altogether and moving to another game with all of the Blizzard shit going on)
Puggin mythic sounds and is painful
It’s taragrue
weekly slotmachine isnt fun
It’s an even bigger meme than Shriek
I mean, I got 3-4 Mythic bosses in Nyalotha and CN too
Terragrue is a joke
parses doesn't matter, you have to do damage to kill bosses if you're into progress. If you underperform it will hinder you're group. That's it
Ya I’m sure some bosses are booty cheeks to pug on mythic
Sure, you're probably not doing Mythic KT in a pug
But you can get 3-4 bosses deep in pugs without that much hassle
Yup
I don't think nerzul or dormazain will be easily pugable even with higher ilvls
A solid pug could get Eye for sure.
Yea to get in those groups you need good parses tho like we’re only 7/10hc but I’ve been tryna pug the last few on hc
Even today
eye is easy as helll with great dps
But yeah, everyone will need more gear before a lot of that is puggable
ANd to show you’re great dps ppl wanna see your logs
With good dps u can just stick to your add on p2 s and don't change sides, easy pz on the eye
So ye if you pug, parses do matter
And the nine is easy af
some of the highest farm parsing players ive played with are absolute dogshit on prog
of course the best players can do both
Ye same, but if you’re leading a pug u cant possibly know that
Thats because both on prog and farm they’re either not understanding or ignoring mechanics
But at some point bosses get nerfed and gear gets optimized so they survive anyway while ignoring lots of stuff
I run with a casual guild and top the charts so they let me ignore mechanics. I also bribe the priest for all the PIs.
play ff14 because parsing and logging is illegal there
Then how would I stroke my delicate ePeen
gently
you couldnt because feelings
pretty much the entirety of the endgame ff14 community logs and cares a lot about parses
and no one gave y permission to show epeen
infact most of their endgame is doing 1chest parse runs on reclear garbage
You can get banned if you flame someone for their dps right
Apologies. <zips up logs>
human nature is to compete. need to live with it. so dps matters
yes
no one knows
but they can decide to not, too
should've just buffed the others tbh
save embers this week and do zero dps vs spend embers and do zero dps next week
what a great time to be alive
I've just been bumping everything to level 2 and sitting on the rest
!guide
while gathering Unholy set, should i wear 3x dps stones from all sets in the meantime ?
Sim whatever is best for you
Lots of folks have been running without the set anyways and doing okay...balancing is balancing...happens
unholy is still going to be decent, stop saying stuff like zdps
iam going to stop at level 4 unholy now, and start frost, win-win anyway
Hey everyone, I'm not sure how to effectively use my MA windows. Currently I'm doing the following: Vendetta>Shiv>Vanish>Envenom>Mutilate>Envenom. Should I be doing something different?
That’s fine
Only caveat to the MA windows is to make sure you have some energy going into it
Otherwise vanish in CD
Ideally you vanish with 5CPs and enough energy to Mutilate and envenom again
but sounds like youre good
so I need to 5cp with shiv before going into vanish
i saw some russian dude going mutilate after each vanish so I thought i was doing something wrong
thats why i always put extra emphasis on progression kill parse. The dps and general performance of a player on a prog kill is far more indicative of their ability than their performance on farm
ideal scenario, yeah. Shiv is also the only time ill knowingly overcap CPs
because that juicy crit
they need to get rid of mark legendary andj ust make the MA talent 100% crit for the 3 seconds it's on
Still cant believe the necro bug is still in
i think it's dumb that a 3sec duration talent doesn't crit 100% of the time
dumb question. is it possible to sim for dom set bonus without having it? For instance, I just need the helm to unlock the bonus, but i dont have it
Yes, just select the gems on top gear
another dumb question: so you pretty much never pool energy or CP for shiv? the FAQs say you hard press shiv on CD?
Check out #assassination-faq - the very first item posted answers this for you
Oh yes for sure in most cases
U can get those windows to 100% atm
With enough crit + Heirmir
ah im not necrolord but my crit is 33% base at the moment
i really been thinking about going back to necrolord tbh
I would not recommend until they fix SBS
oh i've read it, that's why i mention it. also naturally pools into cooldown windows such as vendetta/shiv i need an elaboration on this, confused about this :\
you basically only pool before a vendetta burst, and only delay shiv by maximum of 8-10 seconds if vendetta is coming off cooldown, outside of that window i only hold on to shiv for 1-2 seconds if my energy is super low, even then it's not advisable because you end up losing a cast if you do it too much. You want to have shiv up and running as much as possible, since shiv is a debuff uptime rather than a buff.
You're misunderstanding - you pool for Envenom (unless Shiv is currently active), and you always shiv + envenom. So you'll naturally be pooling for Shiv anyway.
is the bug really game breaking? i see a lot of great necrolord sin parses, and from logs even with the bug it looks like it has the advantage on any fight there is more than 1 target
if you don't care much about mythic+ it isn't game breaking. On dungeons however it's annoying as hell and very unrewarding for trying to play the covenant correctly
gotcha
got it, thx
so for M+ given the existence of the bug, is it still worth using necrolord as outlaw? or are outlaw rogues would be better off as venthyr in m+ until bug is fixed? i ask because i have tried sub rogue in M+ and really find it boring and i like outlaw a lot more for M+
Honestly I don't know. I've been Necro since forever cause I really enjoy the playstyle
but I think you would be better with Venthyr atm
it's that bad in dungeons huh? wow
i was necrolord briefly when i started playing my rogue again in shadowlands right before the patch but didn't do enough serious content on it to have a good idea
always shiv + envenom Given that you're at non deeper strat 4CP though right? so pool, shiv into 5CP (max), then envenom. What if you're at max CP when shiv comes up? Do you just pool, envenom and then shiv not to waste the shiv's CP?
I love necro too much to switch
shiv on cd
I just play sin in m+
It’s tons of fun and in a lot of dungeons it’s actually realy good
Shiv even if you're at max stacks is what I have always been told.
Correct
chad
Ye never hold
We slammin
Why?
Any slammers in chat? 
i respect any sin m+ players
Damn you gonna respect a lot of people then because there’s a lot here lol
It’s the best. At start of dungeon everyone thinks ‘yikes, sin’ and then you pull massive numbers and they like eh
The boomie that says ‘y u no outlul’ and then u do 2k more overall than him
Everytime i see a venthyr boomie in m+ i get sad.
No one seems to able to actually play it
Most I know/have seen already swapped back fae
Yeah my guilds 2 boomies never swapped to venth. But they are questionable as is so kinda a good thing
My guildies are getting the hang of it I feel
But it’s been a rough couple of weeks for em
hmm..last time i simmed that way it wasn't much different than without set bonus. I had the option check as well. maybe im doing something wrong
also, is anyone else having trouble loading topgear on raidbots?
no, works fine here
what doesn't work (or appears not to) is the option to sim all the domination gems on raidbots. If I choose to sim all the tier sets, it seems to ignore them and just sims what I have equipped. Am I dumb or...?
Did you check the gems box?
Gotta enable it to replace existing gems
Gems are checked, domination set shard bonuses is checked
god dammit that was it
ty ty psycho ❤️
Yw ;)
Anyone know yet what shard set would be best for Assa after nerf?
is it a definite that next week it will be implemented though or is that still up in the air?
Would zoldycks be better for m+ this week with lotsa adds living longer at low hp with fort+bolst?
I crafted zoldyck this week
They said it will be with resets on twitter. Who knows if the changes will be the same tho
Wait, are we supposed to use phantom fire pot or agility on ST?
!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
ah, ty
gotchu
Does cloak dispel bomb on Remnant?
Yes
and does it knock you away?
I know I've cloaked bomb, but I don't remember if it knocked me or not
it should knock you
i haven't tried it yet with my group, but i might try it next week to troll them
I know the monk dispel knocked people. My group designated specific people to dispel to avoid this
I wouldnt troll your group and cause a wipe cuz to many people got booted
dw about that, we are used to wipes lol
Lol fair enough
Cloak doesn't dispel the bomb on remnant btw
yo on remnant do we target the boss or the player who is the opposite? for shadowstep for the knockoff
probably the boss right?
is there a macro for muti to change to ambush when blindside procs?
I just shadowstep the boss
And use a weak aura to track the mass dispel cast
ye i have the wa
but i was being a special person and targetting the player
and it didn't work
but shadowstep has a 31yard range anyway
so i'm sure i could reach the boss
would someone please give me some ideas of how to improve? i am unsure what i am doing wrong:
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/zyhPQ76TGXqDc3gf#fight=38&type=casts&source=68
Do u bois gamble for the agi WIth mad dukes tea. or keep haste/crit?
i definitely gamble w/it, which just means activating it 1 hour before and then using it again on raid time if it isn't agi
Difference is minimal either way
feelscraft tells me secondary stats is slightly better cuz its flat %, agi based off your actual agi number
hey guys whats the best way to deal with remnant knockback? I mean when i have debuff and I am closer to the edge
shadowstep something (better if it doesn't move like someone immuning or a summon or boss)
do you guys usually run eternal skirmish or stats?
Guys, anyone know what the haste cap is for ass, I know their isn't a full haste cap but if their is % which the ticks increase, for fire mage it used to be every 12.5% hate gave you an extra tick
is obedience simming higher than doomblade now?
Our bleeds don't work like that.-
They increase dynamically and if the bleed drops, it will do an extra small tick for the remainder of the bleed.
EP/Vig
Better for burst
Better for movement
Better for several targets
Better for PI
Okay thanks ceverion!
feels a little faster paced and i just perform better with it
And most importantly
like locks/boomies
It feels better.
it does feel better for sure
i played both throughout 9.1
So what's your haste ceverion?
ill stick to EB&VIG for now
now i just gotta blow our priest for pi's
and get actual daggers
daggers are a myth :/
ahh yeah im next up for guardian trinket in heroic next week
15 runs deep this season myself
Unlucky
very excited for that
That new mega dungeon satchel trinket is pretty good right?
Yeah fair
i want my 252 phial then mythic salvaged
It's an upgrade for me though or one of mine, I have worst luck
Killed 10 bosses hc now and not 1 loot drop yet -_- wtf is that
got this beauty fuck yesterday
amazing to have a keybind less aswell, imagine having ambush bound kekw
233 ticking sac was 9.1% of my dps on a raid boss and on my mythic+ bosses when I tried last night.
should probably run a tazavesh this week for the trinket chance, its better than 239 titanic ocular gland atleast 🙂
as outlaw or ass tho
Outlaw 😄
When i tried to switch assa from sub, without gemming and enchanting haste, i had hard time to reach 30 stacks of flag, is it because i didn't pool before?
thats a whole lot different i bet
kinda irrelevant in a ass channel
@weary marten is that with vigor&EB?
Perhaps. I figured in a discussion of trinket damage it might be relevant. Mb!
i had alot easier reaching 30 with deeper+blindside
i was running blindside deeper too yeah
also idk ur stats but i gemmed&enchanted crit (and were suppose to)
We don’t reach 30 stacks regularly
its rng af
i always get ~25+
depending on crits
if you wanna minmax and be a god u time it with thrill seeker
i most of time get to 24-25ish in ST yeah
and you got no problem reaching 30
It is usually around 18-24 stacks 18 being the GIGA low side. But 25isg also seems good
if you ever get 18 you're doing something wrong or have very low crit&haste
or EXTREMELY unlucky i guess
yeah nah 18 is scenario where i got to move, and didn't hit
!guide
doesn't open in a clean flag window
Mut snd mut gar flag rup
^yea unless i get 3 CP from non crit muta in MA window which is extremely unlikely
There are some nice bosses with phylacteries in their rooms, like remnant that u can use to build cp for snd prepull
And then i open with mut-env-mut if 4cp from first mut, mut-mut-flag-rup-gar if <4 cp from first mut
if you have a guild that lets u have CP when pulling im happy for you
or a SnD up
I mean, unless they clear out all the pots on the side
oo
They can't really stop you from getting cp for pull
Which difficulty? :P
ah, good stuff :P
well
unless ur guild is bad and not massdispelling both orbs at once
guardian is
you definitely don't.
I was going to say guardian is like the best
on guardian u can get beams and shit
Not even close
You just move quick
on remenant unless u get orbs
you always have shadowstep
u never have to move with group
and u can eaisily dance with pebbles
it doesn't depends on how fast u move, depends on timers of dispell and mech
For guardian?
im saing unless ur guild is pepega and mass dispells both
u got 100% uptime on remenant
You get that on guardian as well
well
my bad lol
yes
Definitely do. You can move out with little time left and step back to boss
but you are more likely to get a mechanic on you
Uptime is so high on guardian lol
uptimes higher on remenant, atleast mine.
How so?
I've done several guardian kills
on all difficulties
there are 3 "beams"
whatever u wanna call them
ever
But that's not how it works
You either get the mechanic or you don’t
Are you sure that it's equal chance for all specs

regardless of whether or not they are melee
my best remenant uptime was 99.75%
and guardian was 99.65%
literally the same
Also, which difficulty are you talking about
right now hc
let me see my uptimes
are those on hc?
yes
😏 fyi on remnant u need to be on a certain spot and get dispelled. on guardian u can just run later, explode and shadowstep in like 1 sec(heroic, because u dont need to recharge stones)
Anyone here able to help analyse logs? Parse 50% ish so I guess I’m fucking trash🥲
u shadowstep and blow your raid to dalaran right?
u dont ever have to stop attacking the boss on remmy hc unless u get orb
which doesn't have any adds or sudden movement
u HAVE to wait dispell
u dps boss
and when they dispell the two people who got orbs back to back of eachother
Listen
mass dispell
It's literally the same uptime
u shadowstep
i feel bad for him, i think they dont know what mass disepll is
LOL bad for me? why?
and thats true lol
yea, the specific boss is right next to the boss with ur daggers
If you have malevolence 
do you have this spell bound?
HAHAHH this kid
this is funny
Guardians is the most patchwork esque boss
imma wait till he realises
Yep
You lose like 2-3 seconds with bombs
this is literally remenant @lost mist
DK looking outside, DH looking at boss priest massdispell u shadowstep and keep on attacking boss
u dont do jack shit
link/dm me and i can look
THANKS GOD now u will understand
u dispell both bombs at same time on remant?
yo chill lol
stupid people makes me mad lol
????????? Toxic
if you gonna play rogue atleast think like one
But respect the grustle
hahah little kid, lets blue parse on heroic
nobody cares unless ur the bad dps in ur guild
ok, lets compare dicks
send ur logs
im real stupid, do u dispell both bombs at the same time on remant?
Stop being children
yes you mass dispell
far out ty
currently at remnant mythic, is it really reliable to shadowstep if you getting mass dispelled. Fells like a 50:50. Am i just too old ?
otherwise its GG
send me ur logs if you wanna be cocky 🙂
yea you asked for it
😿
Okay calm down boys.
idk what's with this kid
i have never seen either of you before
im a lurker, just coming in when im bored
bro its not "this kid". its botrh of you. both of yall go touch grass or get a glass of water
tthats something i like!
can I be cocky now?
are those with PI&fae or without? 😄
without any externals
respectable
those are boost runs
Only a 98 on sylvanas? Disappointed. Or wait. Was that the log you borked dude?
Yeh, it's bad I know
No fucking way dude
I got a r5 6.5k pull today but it was private logged so oh well
“I borked a log” is like a purple
@limber lion u know there is such a thing as too big? That goes for e dics as well
Not a fucking 98 
Definitely would.
our rotation is straight up braindead
oooo you doombalde & crimston tempest
I like it
lol
O banshee's blight did less damage as ass than i thought it would
Comparing yourself to others is usually good for this game, but everytime I look at Cevs logs I feel like a shitter

How i get like you? my logs are pretty good but not that good
gets the same gear OMG if i had those 60 fps, not my current 59,9 i would have 99 and 100 parses too, me soo gud
is this guy for real

o @limber lion u got no enhancement shammy? 😦
We do on mythic
but like I said
those were boost runs
ye
im just looking through it
they're not exactly log runs
rank1 logs are kinda log runs
i see what you mean
Log runs can be log runs without anyone getting r1
idk if its hasted
sec doing sylv
but i'd just make a flag+salvaged macro, im lazy
@misty bough
jesus cev are these mostly necro?
I mean I've done every boss twice, except the nine and Fatescribe
Nine was Necro, Fatescribe Venth
Others are combination of both
Guardian is the only fight I didn't get a r1 in as Necro, but I got it secured after the fact as Venthyr
very nice
12k soulrenderender on heroic 
ive seen better
That's mythic...
He asked for prog logs.
padverion
So I keep seeing Dashing being brought up in Youtube videos and how its OP compared to Doom/Obed.
I cant seem to find anything in the pinned stuff to show this. Am I missing something?
Dashing sims similarly to Doom/Obedience, but it's still the underdog.
we got it boys
It's not the best choice for any content, that's why it's not mentioned much.
It's good, but not as good as Doom/Obed
should I use this on main hand or offhand my other dagger is 252
It might see play if the dom shard nerfs go live.
Gotchya. I was worried I was gunna have to recraft my leggo
252 mh, that off hand
limit said they didnt bring rogue for sylvanas fight because of guess what ?
not tryna brag or anything but i did get a 54% on Eye 😏
Their rogue didn't get unh set
Lol
so they would replace arms with rogue
No, they would replace shadow with rogue
@limber lion idk why people think parsing is all gear and not majority skill
Cuz it makes them feel better
its majortiy skill and raid strength
i mean these heroic parses cevs 239 ilevel, thats not very high
How many times i've heard from ppl obviously fuckin up their rotation "if i had your gear id be doing the same dps"
Like yes gear has a part to play. And yes parse does not directly equal skill. But to get 100s you do have to be good
i think gear set up too like if you have no haste and play deeper stra lol
239 is high
Unless it was just week 1 and you had god rng with Dom set
im 227 lol
its not high at all
It’s not majority skill
nah heroic is like 230
239 isn't high at all
If anything gear matters more
Than skill
For parsing
Especially at the higher end
Where people know how to play their specs
guild filled with other pple pumping helps too
This is assuming the 2 ppl are somewhat similar in skill tho
also the right raid buff like windfury
Being similar in skill isn’t that hard in WoW
Eh, you'd be surprised
even windfury doesnt help sin that much
The game isn’t challenging enough for two good players to differentiate so much
Especially as a melee spec
Ok so yes I agree to an extent
Yes that is why I said at the top end
Especially right now early in the tier
Can also do the opposite
Being in a bad guild can help you parse better
Guild filled with pumpers helps you on st fights
do u guys think sin is the best melee spec for 2 target fight ?
For sure
Guild filled with pepegas helps on aoe
Any aoe fight being in a bad guild makes parsing easier
Also prog vs farm
I could never get a 99 on vexiona/carapace/n'zoth in nyalotha despite getting consistent 99s on other bosses
We had 4 fire mages, 3 hunters and 3 destro locks iirc
Yep can be painful
And a super greedy dh
My one friend who sandbags raiding enjoys progging in worse guilds for that reason
He just solos the mobs for his guild on any aoe fight
Xd
Also understanding parse does not directly equal skill, but it is a decent initial gauge
If you know your spec 95% is a joke
This tier it’s a bit worse off
Because of how much rng plays a part as of now
It will even out later in the tier
People worry too much about parsing imo. Just play the fight and play optimally and you'll generally do well
Yep
If you had UH week 1 or 2
You could sleepwalk to orange parses
While messing up
i dont have a guild so logs is really the only cred i can get for pugs
yall are gettin unholy gems? 😫
Fair
people do worry too much about parsing but the reality is they exist
and we have to work with it
or not
idrc
lol
only thing i do is check my dot uptimes
it does look nice seeing orange when u pull up wcl
cant deny that
I need better stuff

!guide
just get funneled by guild 
nobody got any for trade XD
I feel like that's just unlucky, id say most of my guild is 240+ now and can trade most of the heroic drops
yep, we have plenty of leather in raid but nobody gets any
We're trading sylvanas loot already, but im the unlucky one there - 0 drops from her and we've killed her every week lol
@limber lion when u have time can you look at this similar casts/gear/kill time no extra buffs but im 2k dps down from yours what the problem here https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/LVwv6zkCy7RbqNFD#fight=36&type=damage-done&source=12
oh man multispeccing with theotar buff is so scuffed, buff disappears but the cd does not : (
You can use the compare feature in WCL to compare our logs if you want
I'm currently raiding, sorry :(
oh i dont didnt know ill figure it out
Are bosses parrying like 100 times these days or is it just me
dont stand in front of them
Glancing blows will happen but a full parry shouldnt if you position behind the boss
Typical. Get my unholy set now that there's doubt in the air. Don't even want to level the shards.
I know i do stand behind them , it just feels like they avoid too often
No doubt, its still better
Next week they're nerfing them but we dont know how that will change things
Aye. Just don't want to level unholy if I frost ends up being the champ.
For sure, i feel that but its like saving valor for next patch who knows if the changes/nerfs will change that much
upgrading to lvl 3 barely costs shards and even if it becomes worse you will still use 1 of them anyways
Shard of dyz 
The DPS unholy is level 5. I got it super early and just spent my embers on it as it would be used either way.
Hey guys as an m+ main pushing high keys only playing assa would you say necro or venthyr is better now with the bugs to necro. I have never played venthyr in m+ would love to hear from someone who has
I've seen them parry SBS. And while casting on random people in raid.
That SBS bug is pretty prevalent yeah , but i feel like they also parry randomly even when its not SBS
if i were to switch to sin and my obedience leggo is still vers/crit, will that work alright? i'm not sure which to focus yet as i'm used to sub by now, but.
They 100% parry other things, but they'll do it while doing things that usually shouldn't parry (casting). And since they will turn and cast on certain targets, it gets quite annoying.
So, this question keeps coming up and I’m not sure there has been a clear answer, proper usage of fusion amp. With Flag on CD or after you get the haste from flag, is the trink hasted? Is there an internal cd on the proc?
crit versa is good on sin too
Everyone knows that for pure single target, venthyr is winning and especially with the new covenant legendary. But how far behind is necrolord with doom blade? Is it enough to really effect raid progression? Also, what is this big people are talking about for Necro?
Bug*
Right now it's more behind than it should be because of bugs. You can see them in pins. Overall Necro has a decent chance of pumping out more overall damage when you combine boss+add damage. Depends on what you value. I personally am of the belief that sin rogue is there for ST dmg and so I just look to push that as far as I can, but I also have lots of cleave specs in my group
And no, it's not going to affect your progression at all
The necro bug is probably more noticable in aoe/cleave/m+
Only fight it’s noticeable on to me is the nine
I imagine it's pretty noticable on the add fights where you're a sbsing adds to get more cps on boss tho
Yeah makes sense
I played Necro for sire and then swapped venthyr at the start of the patch so my experience is limited but I know if it was bugged for sire like it is currently I would kind of feel like there's no point in sbsing adds if you aren't getting any refunds or extra cps
Yeah you don’t get refunds from targets that have been bonespiked more than once
Sbsing the same tgt sometimes give me 2cp, 3cp or 1cp
On st
But cleaves, like dormazain
I just sbs other mobs
So like the nine, essentially. If you sbs an add once you should get the refund
And it is ok
Yeah same
The main issue is to sbs anything more than once for the refund
I mean yes but you should be getting the increased cp even if it's spread in aoe
Well, I am getting
That’s also a very inconsistent problem
So you're wasting like 4-5 cp every time you dump during gemstones
Ye. On st
Pretty annoying
I mean I guess it's some weird karma payback for the sire bugs that made it stronger than it should've been
can we cloak the metor on KT?
Yes
Do i commit to upg doomblade to r6
what are the chances that dashing/obediance is gonna be used more for mythic prog
Resources, combo points - on events tab
Thanks
yes, dashing and obedience are only better with a ton of gear
and even then, obedience is like 1% better
Hi guys, im actually run doomblade, and have 3 frost rank 4, no head for unholy, have 32% crit, should i run scoundrel/frost Build?
Frost set is currently bugged
A nerf on all sets is probably coming next week
So just hold on
Doesnt matter much if you're venth/necro but the other two are kinda bad.
Sim yourself
No, you'll need a lot more gear and we'll need to see where the pieces land with the nerfs next week
He already upgraded frost
He may as well simulate it and see lol
I don’t think anyone here can answer for certain what’s best for your character
I have 31% crit, 29% haste thanks to the ocular gland, 16% mastery, 9% verse and 1471 agility, if I wanted to sim or figure out the best stat to get and reroll before raid from theotars party pack how could I do that?
Or is it agi above all?
Man the sbs bug makes necro feel like dogshit in raid
Might have to swap to venthyr if it doesn’t get fixed by reset
Renown is stupidly fast now. I got to 40 in a day.
Sucks because outlaw is my main spec for keys
Hey 8,4k dps in 17 dos is fine or nah? i feel like i missplay big time
You get it from world bosses, callings, 2 per campaign quest now, and dungeons.
9.1 drastically improved the rate at which you get renown
I recently swapped to Venthyr and can attest that Renown is very easy to grind now. I did not get 40 in a day, but I got 32. At 51 know. I swapped on Saturday and don't play a ton.
I actually found a heroic-dungeon farm group in custom group finder
It was a bunch of us just farming renown
We were all geared and smashed through them super quick
if you do lfr/some casual content and the covenant campain its actually fairly quick to hit max renown
its just about investing time
hmm
Yup, but no matter what, it's much quicker than before.
The covenant chapters gives you like 16 or 18 alone
So if you save both world bosses, invasion, and callings that alone gives you like half of what you'll be missing
just keep in mind that your lfr drops can be lower on higher renown levels
I spammed level 9 torgasts and kept doing those until they stopped giving renown. Then I did all the Daily cov quests and completed the campaign
e.g. i did lfr with over 10 renown and got 3 renown for all 4 wings (of the now old raid)
Was a great way to max out torgast knowledge too!
yea...I got 40-49 renown through Torghast level 9, every other run dropped a renown
what was not worth the time investment (tho i possibly was also unlucky with renown drops)
Yeah, definitely do heroic dungeons > LFR
I was getting them every run then every-other
some ppl did say they got renown on every or nearly every lfr boss
I started with LFR but stopped quickly once we started wiping on the first boss of the the raid...
and if this is the case i see it as a good option but probably would suggest to do lfr before bringing your renown up
If you can get a crew, spam low level mythics. if you're solo, grind on torgast with a podcast or some tunes playing
Agi is typically 1 agi=3 of any secondary stat. You’d have to do the math and see how much agi you get from the buff and you’d know.
How strong do you guys think Assa is gonna be once they fix the necro bugs? Like both raid and m+ Will it be able to compete with outlaw/sub
It’s viable
How many targets does the sylv dagger becomes less strong on?
But less damage
