there's a pin in sub channel that explains how you can sim this
Yh figured it out. I got 3% agi from the favour and I’m offline sitting on it till raid thanks.
guys can i play sin with kyrian or i should def go venth?
Are you pushing for Hall of Fame or +30s?
If not, do whatever the hell you want man
go venth, kyrian feels bad to play
You can play sin with what you want but if you like doing damage venthyr or necro is the play
If you wanna RP with animals kyrian and night fae are top tier choices tho
Just because someone isn't top 1% doesn't mean they wanna play a non optimized build and have it feel like shit.
Like do you really think only the top players enjoy or want to min max? Come on..
All of the covenants feel fine, for all specs. Just because something isn't hyper-optimized doesn't mean it's not fun to play.
Everyone forgets that this is a game that's meant to be enjoyed
If you find something fun, run it.
If you're in a guild that prefers you to be hyper-optimized, move on and find a new guild
There's thousands of them out there ...
Cool, then do it
I'm responding to someone asking if Kyrian is acceptable to play as
And the answer is Yes
I never said it didn't
But if you're not pushing +30s or Hall of Fame, the need to min-max isn't there.
You may enjoy it, but you don't have to if you don't
There are people who've played Survival for the last 5 raid tiers that have CE
Feel like you should lower that to +25s at the highest lol
Probably
This argument is pretty overdone, the vast majority of people want to play what is best and minmax their char even if they aren't going for wf
I use 30s to prove a point, lol
Now they probably put less effort into it than if you are going for wf but they still wanna try
A lot of people look up talents to use instead of picking random ass ones that are fun for example
Covenants are similar
The only thing you can do is say 'kyrian is 5% worse for dps" and let people make their own decision on if they like aesthetics or w/e enough for 5% dmg
Instead of dictating what they should or shouldnt play
Yep
obedience > doomblade ?
Sim yourself
Or if you need 1 leggo for both raid and m+, obedience is decent for both
cant wait for reset and dashing to be bis
lol

Right?
im simming more with obedience 😮
Then make it
It's good for both ST and m+, so if you want to boost one thing to r6 immediately, it's the best choice.
It's a great all-around legendary that also works well (albeit with different secondaries) with Sub
Hello! Can you please help me, what is the most convenient/easy legendary to use in mythic plus dungeons for average players? I would be very happy if it also does good damage and maybe even removes a button but it is okay if it does not do those things. Thank you for your time.
None of them remove a button
What covenant are you?
Necrolord but I can switch to any
I am currently using that cute PvP one that makes stuns 10% shorter if that adds any information
Yes, 👍
Thank you, I am going to look at this one right now!
You’re welcome
Pins and FAQ have good info and guides.
!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.
think im going crazy, my vendetta is casting itself alone after flag? is it even possible?
Macro?
but the normal one is easily replaced by a 242
oh wow thats a 226 dagger compared to Normal sylvanas dagger
yea..
That was my thought as well
fuuuuuuuuu
I mean 19 dps difference, probably a 236 OH will give me more
probably it makes a better difference for sub
finally got all my unholy shards
yeah my 3rd one dropped last night
same
Imagine having a helmet to put them into
is outlaw significantly better than assass for M+? if so, should i pick necro if i want to raid and M+?
what kind of keys are you trying to do?
like what level? as high as possible but realistically up to like 17-20 range
Sin is perfectly fine for that
why are assass logs off the chart on eye
Our 2T cleave is top notch
and we have no downtime when he does the beam
As you can just shadowstep through it
for pvp most rogues go sub right? and venthyr in that case?
where does the shadowstep land, right in front?
Front left corner
interesting
welp, thats super useful info, ty!
Do it once at the beginning of the fight, like on pull. It ALWAYS takes you to that spot.
If you don't, you'll probably die the first time. Once you know, you ignore beam altogether
During beam phase just make sure dots are up on the add, funnel energy onto boss - by the time beam is finished and add has returned it’ll be time to reapply dots to the add again
If you want a replay to see, my last two parses would have done this strategy 100%. On the phone though so it’s a pain to get exact link for replay
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/eu/draenor/pretense#difficulty=4
how does Dauntless duelist work when a boss dies, like in the Nine?
you will reapply on next target
does Fan replace Mut at 3 targets or 4?
3 for poisons 4 to generate
Is there a time threshold for how long to hold on to vendetta / flag while the other one is on cooldown? The guide says every other one but sometimes that is a 30 second difference. Seems excessive.
That's something hard to tell at this point in the tier since players are getting such extreme dps increases daily.
So basically only sync the very last cast of a fight
yea
well first and last of course.
Sims all say obedience is slightly better then doomblade but doomblade sims higher for me, does it only get better with highest possible gear?
are we mind numbing for soulredner adds?
!guide
you're mind numbing in every raid fight ever regardless
you think dashing scoundrel is a safe pick for a rank 6 legy with frost set? or do you think it will be bad if the set is getting nerfed?
only as a second legendary
from what i have read it seems frost is getting nerfed less then unholy
crafting it first is dumb, crafting it second is dumb if you multispec
so i should choose between doomblade and obedience instead, right?
yes
dashing builds are cool and all but they're very much an 'in a while, maybe, if things line up'
not that the legendary is bad rn but
Playing Obedience + having fusion amplifier is so weird
Literally every cd is Desynced lol
Almost makes me want to run Doomblade because it makes syncing cd’s easier
it's not really that complicated
just mash your trinket on cd it's not like.. a fancy button
!guide
As Venthry what rank 6 legendary should i craft first Doom or obedience?
You need to make that decision yourself.
Sim it.
If you want to play Sub as well, probs Obedience.
hey lads, anyone know a good guide for dom sockets? I have a pair of 249 gloves with crit haste, and a pair of 239 gloves from the raid with dom socket, crit/vers. the crit haste gloves sim higher than the raid gloves. but im not sure if shard of dyz is better? does that make sense
or should i not worry about dom sockets unless i get the set bonus
Thanks
So how do the unholy set bonus stacks work?
is it worth trying to sync fusion amplifier with the haste from flagellation?
i think its better to sync it with flag in general?
Got my 3rd UH shard
both are 1:30 CD

It's always better to sync beneficial stuff up to the point where you lose a cast
This is just a general rule of dps
Cooldowns are multiplicative
idk from seeing alot of these top parses including cev they do not hold flag for the 2nd vendetta
They become much more powerful together than cast alone
Note the stipulation
i mean a lot of trinkets have no interaction with our kits
Till the point you will lose a cast
what do u mean lose a cast
If you think you're going to lose a cast. Fucking send it
Don't allow yourself to let the boss die without using the CD
oh so a 5 min fight youre getting 2 vendettas, 3 flags, 3 fusions
wait but that doesnt matter if ur not gonna get a 3rd round of any thing cuz boss is dead
"my trinket is ready. But flag is still a while off... But if I use the trinket NOW I'll get to use it again before the end of the fight. Kk. Send it"
they still dont hold flag
if you wait 20 seconds to start fusion, then youll lose the third fusion i trhink?
Big
Fat
Depends
This is on the fly stuff
Generally speaking even the best of the best won't KNOW they got it right till afterwards
usually the first flag is in vendetta window anyways so using fusion with vendetta window is better
buy lose a cast you mean the boss is dead right
Kinda? I guess...
I mean think of it this way. The worst thing that can happen is the boss dies just as all your cds refresh
The best thing that could happen is you chained every cd you could and the boss dies at the end of a cd combo
ok so even on long fights like kt and sylv they still not holding flag for 2nd ven they just use it on cd
im just saying its what i noticed just now past 30 min looking at logs
Just don't LOSE a cast of something big because you sat on it for too long
This is always bad
This shit is big in keys.
All these guys who never touch cds until a boss. Etc etc
SUUUUUUPER common
Then they struggle to finish 15s and can't work out why
I guess the one thing to tack onto that concept though is making sure the profile of your output matches the requirements of a fight.
Eg. If phase 1 is 30 seconds long and phase 2 is MEGA important to push fast. Yeah you sit on that cd
This is fight dependent though.
With so many bosses having some sort of intermission, you have to always be mindful of your cooldown usage. Even more so this tier than in CN.
You generally want to cast everything on cooldown, but it doesn't really work on every single boss.
has anyone taken the time to figure out the % difference between high rolling Agi with party favors vs getting say vers, for example? (im sure its a very minimal difference, just curious)
also, i was trying to see what the Sim defaulted too, and i see this on a quick sim
It's basically sweet fuck all
does that mean it runs each buff for 1/4 of the sim and takes an average, or am i dumb
But really you can't control the buff that much
oh i know you cant, i was just curious is all, not worth trying to Game it
So just know which one is best for YOU and if you get that one. Don't reroll it
well, i would assume at this point, main stat is best for everyone
It will change a bit depending on gear and such of course
Maybe. I think the haste one comes out best for me
ya i am now, didnt know that existed xD
for partyfavors
They're dumb close though.
Same for me
gotta love flat values
damn really? thats interesting to me tbh
yea cuz 3 % agi is 3% of agi u already have while the others is just straight up 3 % on top
yaaa haste best and agi worst for me aswell, ive rolled vers 4 times today tho so im owning
just got 3 unholy shards
im stuck blue now cause i accidentally hit the reaction for it
rip me
Welp
looks like they aren't doing nerfs at all
for shards anyways

Woot! Got my Unholy and Frost sets completed tonight.
Yeah it did look fun/interesting
yeah i finally got my unholy set as all this talk of nerfs was going out. so im glad they arent fucking with it at all
I just leveled frost anyway... Fuck it, baylife.
That woud still be better with high gear right?
tbf it's 75dps behind doomglade with my current gear
I guess with a bit more gear it'll be above
I'm only 237 atm
hope so
(if it ever actually works properly)
(and you don't have to hit more than 1 thing)
so whyspers initial sim stil in play
frost 300 dps ahead
of unholy
if not bugged
Side Question, do you ever use your Flag outside of Vendetta? (bcs of the cooldown differnce)
You guys know what are the top 3 dps Domination gems are right now?
I know they are going to hotfix this coming week
Frostfire just posted a link above about Blizz not changing the shards
The top 3 gems are the only 3 dps ones lol
lul true
nah every kind has 1 dps shard
Probably idk the names
but the blood one ist the worst imo
Theres 1 unholy that gives some passive damage too
It looks like the best, lol
But its kinda sucky
Is Unholy the best?
Depends on what you do
No best is unholy easily
For raiding its the worst
There a trick to shadowstepping nerhzul knock mythic?
Step boss and/or statue not players
ty
It says you need to have 50% or more total health then the target you attack, how does this work on ayhting that has more hp than you for 99% of the raid bosses
"Your damage is increased by 1.5% when you have 50% or more health than your target."
than your target
Yes
what does it compare then
that mean once the boss is at 50%
So when youre at 100% hp
you have 50%hp more
It procs on anything at 50 or below
Ahh okay i read it wrong then i guess
It probably is
it's over 10secs but it's a nice bit of damage
Maybe even with blood
it should be
Frost sucks in sims but you can abuse it in a lot of fights
abuse in what way?
Frost you mean?
Anyone saw the wowhead post that shards are not gonna be needed at all?
Needed?
Nerfed
Or nerfed
Autocorrect
Yes
Sry
People are discussing it like 5 lines above yiur message haha
yeah good news after all lol. didn't think they'd do it tbh
Is the dashing frost shard still BIS even though we’re necro?
Or do we stick to doom blade
What legendary is everyone rocking?
does 2x sylv daggers stack?
Why does the bug feel like 9.0.2 bonesspike but even worse
As soon as news went out about shards I crafted my 262 obedience cloak haha
How do you guys open on the nine?
from stealth usually
Guys
Can someone explain me the last soulbind of heirmir?
I dont understan that 3%
with the nerfs reverted is UH or Frost BIS?
whelp
these unholy shards are nuts
not even max rank shards and its a almost 700 increase
guys on bloodmallet aparently frost set is better on higher levels XD
for sngt and for aoe are crazy better so yeah im gonna start going for that
@limber lion there is a blue post about not nerfing set bonuses now, if you wanna edit the pin
nobody still knows what shards will look like next week so it's not really any different
They literally said they're not changing them
besides the part where they said they might change them
almost identical to me, that 3rd unholy shard boosted a lot
did you skim over that part
"but we will not reduce the power of Shards now that many players have earned and upgraded them."
reading hard
OOOOF
do we still go dashing frost for BiS if we are necro?
if it sims better for oyu sure
check the "replace existing gems/enchants" on raidbots
select max tier frost/blood/unholy gems
add legendary to your gearset
run sim
wait a lot
The replacement function does some funky shit with my Dom sockets
They said they are not NERFING them. It literally says they COULD change them lol meaning the others could get buffed
Yo, does it matter if I have my edge of night in the MH or OH, it's a % effect so I assume it doesn't?
Just equip your highest ilvl dagger in main hand
so vendetta doesnt affect the shadowgrasp totem or trinkets in general correct?
Hey, is it bad to get PIs if some one intends to apply for a mythic raiding guild. My buddy is saying that mythic raiding guilds look for "pure dps". that they dont want to see parses of people who always get PI
does that have any truth to it? like are people who are getting pi suppose to ask to not get PI lol?
no thats dumb
but if you get like 4 PIs and a fight and still dont get high parses that could hurt your chances
Hey I'm trying to find some good daggers for ass rogue that are above level 200
My current ones that I'm using are the ones you redeem for honor in oribos
the logs will show you got PI any decent guild will look at more then just your raw dps parse
I purchased korthia armaments on all my alts with stygia and mailed them to my alt, had like 45 to open
Might get lucky
O
I can't run mythics because no-one wants me in their group
:(
Run m+ until you get a dagger and upgrade it with Valor
Same
run your own keys until you can build your score up
I have never done one
Wheredo I get keys tho
by running a dungeon
Sorry I'm relatively new
Any specific? Or just any
Do a mythic 0, you get a 2 key
if you are new, focusing on the campaign and korthia is the easiest way to catchup with gera
Then start your own group
I'm level 60 rn and doing these covenant quests
Annoying as fuck
My item level is like 186 or something like that
Mythic
You have to play mythic 0 to get a key
can i get a No Chaos Bane role call 
rng shards ontop of rng gear
for 10% gains
wtf
How though
No-one wants me in a group
finally got my last unholy shard today, last boss we kill on heroic! was 9/9 but some how one of my frost shards just vanished lol. didnt even have it in a piece of gear either... gonna have to do item recovery or some shit =makes no sense.
yey no nerfs
you cant item recover dom shards fyi
you probably overwrote it instead of removing it with the stygia item
thats stupid... =/ It was just in a bag, i didnt even have it in a piece of gear to even over write it.
its was tel though which i wont be using so its what ever
im 8/9 and will just get it next week
on the bright side last week i was so hype to finally get into the 8k sim range...
now after the unholy shard im chilling
didnt get to raid with it yet though =/ Super hype to slap some bosses with chaos bane
Shit I was happy to hit 7.7k when all 3 unholy dropped for me last night.
still need to upgrade one more shard also, only need 15 embers and ill have rank 4 Bane.
ah maybe i did overwrite a frost
forgot i did have it in a piece =/ testing a sim like an idiot lol
Had some pretty good parses with out Chaos bane to, way to hype to see what the parses are like next Raid!
I still have no helm drop so I am thinking about upgrading my frost set now
yea my frost set was only like 350dps less then my unholy
you get embers fast enought i unno your call
what i dont know is if you get embers from all the bosses in Heroic, when you go to normal can you get any more or is it once per boss?
i've heard no, you just get 1 chance per boss per week (regardless of extra kills on other difficulties) but would be happy to be proven wrong
If you kill it in heroic you won’t get embers for any lower difficulty
As far as I’m aware lower difficulties reward less and if you do normal and then heroic you end up with the same as if you just cleared heroic
my guildmate cried hard enough to the point he woke up with a shard back in his backpack
so writing a ticket does work if you threaten to cancel your sub and point out an obviously flawed design
the tool to unsocket a shard should have just been a quest reward rather then in a vendor that you can easily miss
also the default ui shouldnt let you screw up so immensely by destroying a shard by overwriting it
Then why does crying about sbs not help
Who do I have to screw to get that one fixed
Uh, not allowed anymore
Holy fuck is it tilting to raid with a monk tank who rolls to reposition
lol
welcome to all of my sire progression with a blinking boss
I gave up bitching about it
what are thoughts on dashing/frost gems build?
Nerfs not going through so I think we staying unholy
yeee booiiiii
It’s A very specific play style that you realistically only play on 1/10 bosses
what boss would be the play for it?
I see, interesting 👀
So tired of asking them to just walk
I am tempted to play sub on remnant which i probably should be anyway just for the extra step
Hey quick question what is the interaction with envenom and flayedwing toxin
None
I am now without dagger. Feels nice, but the non dagger damage is sad looking at logs.
Also when we hold dps it hurts my soul
Holding dps always does
No interactions for sin with trinkets
dashing allows you to play without ep / vig just fyi. it's by no means a niche fight build. it's a niche gearing build
We shouldn't be holding DPS for 30 seconds for final shatter
But we're also 50 pulls in and still wiping to bad dispels
is there any recommendation list for anima powers for m+?
necro dagger, axes, stone ward, whatever
How much You sim?
if other dps take volcanic then maybe take it too to perma cc packs
how much do axes do for you? i've only had bad experiences with them before
it was smth around 2-3%~ which is probably less than a flat stat increase
how much of a dps difference is theotar this week with max soulbinds compared to Nadja?
roughly ~75 dps
would have to sim yourself to know for sure
could be diff
but i think the sim takes the average out of all the different buffs into 1 dps increase
decent amount. not quite sure exactly how much
i mean its not great but its something
in the #assassination-faq, what are the 0's for the talents
personal preference, you can pick whatever you want.
if I full clear heroic and get shards I can get shards to drop on normal and mythic, yeah?
So with the shard nerf not happening are we safe to craft our doomblades?
your obidience you mean?
you mean your dashing? xD
You’re safe to craft whatever, you’re getting a new 262 leg in 2 cds
yeah all 3 builds are really close for the most part, until you start getting really good gear then dashing frost pulls ahead by a decent amount.
Given they still follow through with fixing some of the proc issues like they were going to
Well they said they’re going to implement some changes so maybe
wtf where the heck is Theotar?
On the right of the soulbind device?
ok so i got the agi 3% pot.
again blizzard doing amazing job with rollercoaster nerfs and reverse nerfs. prolly should hire more talented folks
and still no necro bug fix.
You kniw what is happening in blizzard right now no ?
Even gm don't answer to request currently
i think people know
@vestal wren judging by the sentence of @north basin i Wonder lol
I have rank 4 unholies and we haven't even cleared heroic fully yet
its fair to complain, in the end its still a product/service they offer and their internal issues are seperate topics
good take from fuu 👍
to be clear, i am all for them solving those issues first
And they say that frenchies are the worst customers lol
XD
They still havent fixed the poison issue dunno how many time it will take for them to solve the sbs issue
if i would priorize those bugs i would say sbs is the one that needs more attention
assassination is even with the poison bug in a excellent position
and it in the end does not impact gameplay experience
Id say for now play what You have or what you want and in few weeks everyone will be able to swap on set that pulls ahead
Do we need to play around Chaos Bane proc somehow specifically?
I’ve actually done 0 mythic, just fill cleared normal and almost full cleared heroic since w1
Especially if they are all about meaningful choice, I’ve never cared about what is highest simming covenant but grinds my gears if the one I enjoy the most is annoying af to play cause of a bug
But now I need 150 for r5
i think the problem with the sbs bug is just player feedback
How much costs to upgrade 1 shard from rank 3 to 4
e.g. it just feels terrible losing sbs resets to a bug
30 @limpid plinth
Bone spikes are actually the most fun in mythic plus with sin, hoping they give it the attention it needs 🙏🙏
Oh nice i can upgrade them all to 4 then
bonespike really good ability, got used to very quickly.
sometimes it even eat stack and not giving 1 cp xD noticed yesterday on mythic nine.
!deathly
Whats the bug with sbs and sin poison bug?
Deadly Poison doesn't apply on some casts like Garrote, Rupture, and Shiv.
It's a minor bug but "notable" in that it does have some noticeable impact on DPS.
Should be around a 100-200 dps loss
anyone tried emeni this reset in m+? with pustules?
good aoe results? and overall dps increased?
Fellas, which anima do you usually use in pugs? Stone Ward/Book/Necrotic/Axe?
they don't work in aoe on multiple targets
Was thinking of taking champion's brand instead of raging haste to avoid loadint even more damage in my exec
Prydaz + necro dagger or Phoenix flame depending on dungeon + vial + champ brand
It’s 50 embers to rank 4 then 50 to rank 5, per shard
I would hazard a guess, and this is how I’ve done it, level Unholy to rank 4, then other 2 dps shards, then go back and get unholy5
with obe do u just use flag off cd? no holding it for vend?
Pretty sure its not 50 embers for 3 --> 4
Think it was 30 embers to upgrade 3 to 4
hold flag for vendetta only if u don't lose a cast during the fight.
even with obe?
yes

He asked for the cost for 3 to 4 tho
I definitely read his question wrong
context?
No context, just method tweet saying hi to da rogues
I just unironically spam kek, it’s turned into a habit 
Whats the contexxt for this?
oops nvm
someone already asked
Ye no context, I’d imagine Method is looking for rogue players? I just thought it was a nice thingy cause nobody says anything to the shadow bois
we have a NF BM hunter sustaining 10k on heroic Remnant...
noone else is anywhere near this dude
are any of you sustaining 10k dps on heroic bosses?
does tarragrue coount ? 🤣
Ye Nine
any ST bosses?
And Fatescribe
close. dormazain as sub 9.8k with a fuck-up. tho it has addspawns
our NF BM hunter has his cov ability as TOp dmg and is sustaining 10k ST
like why am i even playing a fkn melee?
when i can play a braindead BM
I mean
thats not a question that shouldve come up just now
tho melees are the better people 
guess i can upgrade my UH set now
yeah i just upgraded all mine lmao
I got all 3 frost shards last night and mythic tarragrue shoulders, worth using the frost set in its current state? I don’t have the helm for the unholy set because rng gods hate me
How we feeling now that shards aren’t getting nerfed boys 
Yea I upgraded mine to rank 3 cause my luck is terrible too.. it's about 4-5% of my dmg so not bad for now
Wonder if they buff frost shards now 
Maybe, probably at least pushing the frost set fix in if nothing else.
I did 10.1k dps on remnant hc as sub rogue
We can go and upgrade unholy now right ?
as it turns out, parses are meaningless
Yes


you lacking an unholy set i imagine or?

this is what unholy set does
Not quite 10k but ait

jesus
ye. but the point was, i was complaining about parsing grey 1 week prior
and i don't think i improved so drastically 
only adds dmg to the druid doesnt it
ah
Interesting to choose to crusade against hunters in rogue spec channels 
together we are in the raid uselessness department

our main forte is just bring more dam
cev venthyr sub yet?
also im being very unlucky with conduit upgrades anyone has gotten anything good yet
r u t6 archivist

Gonna run it on Soulrender, see what all the faff is about
Cev is too powerful to turn to the dark side
cev and seli are going to make assa great again
we will watch your career with great interest
if u get sylv dagger, can u use it in off hand if the other dagger is high ilvl?\
Yes, use it in your off-hand.
you have best gear in game
I tried it, had better results with sin.
even better than me
Not true.
There's people that are better geared.
I had best gear the second week, sure.
I figured CT pops decently on adds anyways?
hell nah
isnt he only like 239
im only 247
I had a huge week one, then been crap the last 2 weeks
yea cev sacrificed week 1 luck

242 gang
they keep giving me gear
231 gang 20 pf runs still no phial gang
got 252 gloves, 252 neck traded yday
Pepelands see the truly value of shadowbois 

Must be nice
nah neck and waist
big gains
Guild tank does a pf with me gets phial and is like idk I might need for off spec
Really wished they gave rogues some kind of raid utility
i got hc neck yesterday
like crit buff or give back smoke bomb
my gear stonks will be up once i replace my 226 chest/shoulders
wtb mizu's gear
I shroud before pulls and turn it off when my friends get close to boss so they get smacked
yea he is jacked
What more utility do you need
not fair
Lmao
First vault, true love
haha love it, but that doesn't get u invites to pugs 😛
I’m malding
actually no point for me to run m+ @limber lion i can only get ring, 252 phial
.
and thats if its vault
im running m+ now to get the mastery crit set rolling
yea vault items can still be lit
i have the 200 iq strat with only 5 mythic kills though for 2 chances on sylv dagger
i have 4 m kills calculated
u havent killed sylv hc this reset?
Real news, swapping to outlaw to get a painsmith wep to trade then forgetting to swap back to sin for hc Sylvanas and mythic remnant last night. Sadge
Ah no, talking about mythic
We did kill Sylvi HC
Is sylvanas dagger a big ST upgrade
u think u get it before reset
Well, we have like 4 days
OT? 
kt can be fucku after mana change
nah it was pretty hcill
we did a few pulls
We just get one extra set of tank adds
nothing too bad
im scared of painsmith
Painsmith was my favorite boss.
did u switch to sub for it?
No
fair enough
think im gonna be lazy funnel boss instead of ball
Still did more damage than any public sub log

Oh you just wait
It'll be
"stop dps"
ye i know
Yup

on paper at least sub seems better since u can funnel ball dmg and ss bp the adds
dunno how much sin can do to those unless ur running CT like JUST for that
For sure, it's the versatile pick for the fight.
Well, I didn't really do any damage to the adds
Finally boys!
pog
Ayyyy
Yeah, we had massive blasters for adds as well
Didn't need my damage whatsoever
guidlie ele sham with enh spec got it, had to outroll another guildie
can get a good snd then cp ready for flag at least
I mean, I just maintained Alacrity through the intermissions
and then rup fok rup a few adds
and then pump boss
yea the other rogue was assa also on nerz until the ball hp killed his dps
I mean it's fine
I did way more damage this week than the last weeks
but I guess I got a few upgrades
and well, the kill was also 1 min faster

love it
kinda satisfying
This week was so good, 5 gem slots, fusionamp trinket, normal sylv dagger
im sure this was asked before but is it okay to end on like -4 CP to squeeze extra into Flag?
I got 2x 252 daggers from vault do i swap one for sylvanas dagger if i get it dropped today
I used to have #1 simdps in the world in Ny'alotha
And in EP
Good days.
Stacking infinite stars before logging off

My mind is telling me noo
But my body my body is telling me sim it KEKW
im only 6 world 2 rogue
that's still super dank
nothing beats 2x hc sylv. 252, hc sylv beats hc sylv - norm sylv though
or at least for sub 
hmm yesterday I got what I thought was a great substitution to my 226 dagger, de sylvanas normal dagger
I cant see bis soulbinds and stuff in pins anymore
so no sure about this )=
just looks very wrong use nightly
Okay, I will give it a try
it did 37.9k in The nine fight, which was 1.57% of my damage
its like 14 dps increase with sylv hc dagger if its mist daggers atleast in 252
assassination spends like half of the amount of cps sub does across a fight or something stupid
- no deeper daggers/whatever
yea, I have to do the sim for sub and see the actual difference, I was planning to go sub anyways for some bosses but at work atm
Imagine seeing daggers drop tho 
I got excited, sim and all the excitement went through the window
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/6CRF5MXT352PyUhAYW2QxH my sim atm, and sylv hc dagger is like 250 dps increase for me so il take anything atm...... done 40+ mists i think this season not a single drop
What stats are you guys pushing for with party favor ?
whatever it rolls, the difference is rather small
that vial, that ring, I offer a 233 sylv dagger e.e
Figured but was curious if should just reset until we get crit
haha. yea, gonna look better when i cba to get tier 6 aswell. but urgh
Well .. Fuck. My. life. I upgraded Frost for the nerf and they are reverting it altogether
I knew I shouldn't have done it

i like the way everyone just rounds their 10 dungeon runs for items up to the nearest 100
omg guys i did like 100000 plaguefall runs today and all i looted was 2 anima and a stick of gum
took me 300,000 runs to even question the existance of phial. whatever do you mean @cobalt pelican
i would like to see that 300 000 run
yea it's all recorded under 🧢
I am just a bit weary of refarming the same gear. Bring back Soul Cap...or any fun non passive trinket.
I've done 30+ pfs and 8 ppl who needed/couldn't trade looted phial
pretty hard if you dont have io
Yeah, I'm only like 1400. Been spending a good chunk of time in other games
Trying to branch out and get back to enjoying gaming again
i got a phial from my second plaguefall run. still using 220 weapons though
target your weakest link for m+ score, if you have a low one bring it up eventually you will hit 2k
but its a lot of work yes
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/b5qxtt2p8VCwutXWisozY1 what do you think guys? is there something i should change or fix?
I don't pug
Pushed for 2k in the 1st couple of weeks to be able to get in keys and upgrade gear
Ton of work to get that done
make sure you don't have any 0 point dungeons for sure, you need points in both fort and tyr weeks
Burned out on keys for a bit
I’m at 1903 right now. Just sad I got a key I don’t need any more this week
they make everything a grind these days
It’s an mmo 
you can trade in your key at the end of a run for a random new one at least
Only if it’s equal or higher
Woah, look at this guy who has friends and an active guild .... 
speaking of burnout
Archivist rep is a real grind
in the past 2 weeks
Ouch.
back to WoD where you just log in for raid and that's it
Gear farm or boosting
gear farm
what setup are you guys going into keys with, been trying sin for a few weeks and wonder if I should alt spec for m+
havent touched sub since BfA
Sin is fine in keys, EP/Sub/vigor/CT
sin really pog in keys
might give it a go
im considering playing sub on fortified weeks
but...
Sub does good in keys once you get the rhytum down
assa aoe of tyra is dogshit cause it takes time to ramp
how's that your train of thought
I prefer to just mindlessly mash flurry
train of thought is that trash dps doesnt matter as much on tyrannical
shuriken tornado go brrrr
it does
all dps matters
it all matters, but bosses are a greater proportion on tyra
and they're the "hard part"
your group will most likely have other dps that are better suited to aoe
Well if i didn't have them, i wouldn't be playing the game
I envy the determination of people who play "solo"
Only pugging must be a nightmare
I still dont have a dom helmet, so I can upgrade frost set but not unholy, feels a bit risky right now
I've gotten AotC and multiple Mythic bosses each tier while pugging. I'm in a guild, but I'll have AotC before they do and I'll probably be 2-3 bosses deep into Mythic before they even start it.
guys, please help me decide for 262 legendary. obedience or dooblade?
i dont know how to sim can someone help me ? il give me code 🙂
Sounds like you should be somewhere else
Do you play sub?
ventyr sin bro
I want to go back to my Alliance guild, but they're full right now and told me that they won't replace someone for me to come back until the next tier.
go to raidbots.com do Top Gear, you can sim different legendaries at 262 with that but it might be more complicated, like you might need to sim different soulbinds and other things
i play outlaw as of now on my m+
there are plenty of guilds out there
but if m+ better sub . i can go for it
Bruh, do you or do you not play sub in any PvE content
even if the process is intimidating, you'll probably end up happier
that's my question
they sound like they don't really want you back and are being passive aggressive about it
no bro, i only play Sin
then pick which you want. They are both close enough
Obedience gives you better options for sin M+ till you get zolds
You literally just said you played Outlaw for m+ and now you're saying you only play Sin in PvE content. Which is it?
sorry, i misunderstood. ok . i play sin on raids.. and sin/outlaw on m+
Sub, in theory, is better - if you can perform it at the same level or higher than you do Outlaw.
Venthyr also isn't ideal for Outlaw, I believe if you're Sin/Outlaw you want to go Necro
Meh. Outlaw you get better CC tools which high M+ cares about. If you're just a 15 andy any spec is fine
It varies between dungeons
Sure
Outlaw is without a doubt better in ToP/PF
Outlaw, in theory, is the best m+ spec though. Sub might do more damage but Outlaw brings more CC
which is better in raid? sub or sin?
Are you good at WoW?
Depends on the fight
Played at the same level? Probably Sub, but honestly it really depends on the fight and your own skill level
Honestly kinda new myself and the way I’m seeing it
If you want to play rogue optimally
They are pretty competitive, so whatever you're better with will probably end up being best
You play all 3
If you want to be good, master one, not all 3.
if you're probably going to only play sin in raid, just make doomblade
You can master all 3
Best thing you can do if you gonna m+ actively and mythic prog is to play sub and sin
harder to try and make good legendaries for more than one spec at a time
You can master all 3. But it's better to spend your time learning the ins and outs of perfecting one spec than half-ass knowing all 3.
its more late tier when you go all 3
actually, im more comfortable doing sub/sin.. so i think
I will just stay with my doomblade for a while..
not because outlaw is bad or anything like that, its just that it requieres different weapons, stats and covenant to perform
If you're a Venthyr, just make rank 6 Obedience first.
It's great for ST and m+, Sin and Sub
If he's been playing sin up until this point he should just make doomblade
By the time he's comfortable on sub he'll be able to make 262 obedience
For my gear level, Doomblade gets me 26 DPS more than Obedience
this
The doomblade/obedience DPS difference is insanely close for me. Not sure how gear changes that, but at 230-something, the difference is almost nothing
I think that is the best thing about rogues right now, there are so many damn close setups
i think it's pretty damn close for everyone
thanks guys! il go for sub/sin then..
Yes, you can gain 20-30 DPS doing Doomblade, but you can also use Obedience cross-spec AND for different types of content.
like venthyr vs necro, doom vs obed, frost vs unholy, dashing
yeah, that's what sold me on obedience
you can build your rogue several ways and be nearly the same
If I don't want to do Torghast one week, that's fine because Obedience is good enough. I don't need that extra 30 DPS to get AotC and a few Mythic bosses killed
You don’t need 30 dps unless you’re clearing the raid week 1 tbf
I mean not rly. A lot of people play necro sin which is good in raid and then necro outlaw in keys
necro not good rn cause its buggy
Okay yeah buggy is something else, but necro sin is rly good if stuff works correctly
would there happen to be any log analyzers around that are available?
wowanalyzer but not sure its been updated for 9.1 yet
don't think it is, was hoping someone to find someone here who's more proficient at reading them than I am
I don't think it was updated for 9.0 either, lol
Just post it, if someone has time they'll take a look
Link em in here
This is different for everyone
doomblade actually sims less for me last i checked lol
Yeah but for some people it’s still ahead like 200dps
they must have wild profiles
ofc just curious what stat weighting they have or what gear level they have for that to occur
Probably changed by now haven’t checked in a week or so
From what I’ve seen the most of, the less gear you have the more doomblade is ahead
Exactly, that's why I prefaced it by saying that for me the difference was almost nothing, so I went with Obedience first and I'll be making DB/Zoldyck/Dashing after.
Yeah either way all leggos are good 😁
I’ve got all the main ones for all specs except dashing
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/pfVyTpGdS94woPydUTWBUX im at work and this site sucks on mobile. can you take my raw input and keep sack cuz i aint using that eyeball shit and sim it with a doom cloak
You can
