i thought i was done with pf after i got phial now im back in there tryna get the crit haste ring

south belfry
#

My first 2 weekly chests had 252 rings pepehands

#

And for 3rd had to take 239 helm for domination set

hollow river
#

yeah vault is basically troll right now

#

probably will be all tier

#

for those of us who will take all tier to clear mythic

south belfry
#

Atleast i got really fucking lucky from raid this week

#

232 ilvl -> 238 ilvl

hollow river
#

nice

#

i went from 228-232 this week so far

fallen arch
south belfry
#

2 previous weeks from raid were completely garbage so i guess it evens out

#

First week got 239 boots

#

Second week same boots again

#

4 items this week

fallen arch
south belfry
#

Got traded amplifier and got kt shoulders, eye hands and 239 wep from nerzhul

#

Replaced my 220 dagger lol

#

Hoping for sylv dagger from vault pepehands

obtuse robin
#

i had 252 dagger and edge of night week one in vault

kind talon
#

233 edge?

#

!oil

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

kind talon
rocky pecan
#

252 dagger lol

obtuse robin
#

no the 252 dagger was 200 dps more

rocky pecan
#

y i hope you took the 252

#

edge isnt that big for sin

edgy pawn
#

does dashing scoundrel effect envenom?

#

or only the "real poisons"?

crystal stag
#

good thing i spent all my cinders on a 262 Doomblade 10 hours ago 🙃

signal brook
#

is the crit dashing scoundrel with frost set becoming bis?

south belfry
zinc frost
shrewd flume
#

is probably gonna be bis, but with more gear i suppose

past jolt
#

Is the domination set bonus stronger with higher level gem than a lower level gem ? Or the level of the gem only influence the bonus of the gem itself ?

hollow river
past jolt
#

Can I find the stay of that enhanced bonus somewhere ?

#

The stat

pearl jungle
#

Hello guys..
Witch lego is the best for assa on raid?

ornate dawn
#

Who the fuck even knows anymore they will change something next week 😂

hollow river

hollow river

i think he means the % they scale per rank

hollow river
past jolt
#

Thanks

gusty adder
#

how much of an dpsincrease are the non-setbonus dom-sockets btw? Im considering making a 246 PvP chest for the ilvl and stats - but can't really figure out how to properly sim it, seeing I dont have a dom-socket chest

gloomy rose
#

I was thinking the same if its not worth getting 252 from m+ over one off set dom socket

#

considering some mythic loot with good stats is a long way to go for our guild

gusty adder
#

actually figured out how to sim it

#

simmed with foreboding bek and cor on the two chestpieces from heroic counter to the unchained gladiators vest at 246

#

seems like its not worht

#

for me at least

#

granted Ill get the chestpiece lol

#

made a mistake on one of the chestpieces with 233 instead of 239 with the foreboding cor tho, disregard that

hollow river

#

@balmy condor what are the chances losing the armor bonus is worth a 2nd gem bonus with the buff pepelaugh

tawdry sparrow
#

i am wondering the same @signal brook

#

wondering, is the sin faq up to date according to the shards? or are we rolling frost now?

hollow river
#

There are no new sims for next weeks buffs

#

Only very preliminary testing sims

vestal wren
#

we don't have official numbers, hence all sims are based on assumptions

hollow river
#

Gonna be a busy week for all of you, eh fuu?

tawdry sparrow
#

oh well, i am only missing one frost shard atm, so gues i'll keep al my cinders and embers from now on

vestal wren
#

and potentially optimizing gear/soulbinds

#

i don't think we have a lot of apl changes to double check, but i could be wrong

hollow river
#

Yeah ik

#

Still a decent amount of sims tho

#

Can I run multiple sims at the same time?

#

I think you can but idr

potent dagger
#

@limber lion i don't understand why using flag before vendetta and not right after on opening sequence

grizzled egret
#

yo guys is it true that the frost set will be better than the unholy next week ?

#

for assass

placid cobalt
#

i just waited till they confirmed no nerfs to sink all my embers into unholy and now this happens.... i cba this game anymore

full tide
#

Frost + DS is still very gimicky

#

and like it was initially stated, it requires more more and more specific gear to perform

#

you're fine being unholy now

#

and you get the embers quite quickly

#

don't worry mate

placid cobalt
#

It's beyond the point wether it's bis or not. this is wrong conceptually and all it tells players is your time is worth jackshit

full tide
#

Oh trust me I'm tilted too

placid cobalt
#

u spend 1 morth worth of shards? too bad we buff it now cos the last 8 months weren't enough to test things internally

full tide
#

I want to play Necro but the SBS bugs make it unfun for me to play :/

placid cobalt
#

no mention of shard refound nothing

#

it's bad

full tide
#

The numbers don't ruin it for me, like with you and the set

#

it's the fact that I press it and it pisses me off that it doesn't work properly

placid cobalt
#

the fact is, they literally spit on you for playing the game and investing your time. If the valued our efforts at all, at the very least there'd be a shard refound attached to this

#

this is true regardless of what sets end up being bis

#

imagine 2 days ago they actually went out and said no nerfs, they could have said this there and then no? most people upgraded then, and now this

#

apologies for the rant im just approaching the point where i cba all this anymore

steep obsidian
#

if you upgraded your unholy gems you really didn't even lose anything did you?

#

its still better in almost every situation right?

placid cobalt
#

maybe it is, maybe it isn't, youre missing the point im trying to make

cyan zinc
#

technically no, but realistically frost has a tiny edge in high crit sims so of course now you jump on the frost wagon

raven vapor
#

Thing is by the unholy set not being nerfed it should of been obvious that the blood/frost would be buffed to be on a similar level

steep obsidian
#

i guess if you get procs at a bad time unholy can be bad

full tide
#

Also

#

Back when the expansion launched, everyone was waiting to craft legendaries to see what tuning happened after RWF

#

That's kinda what's happened here

placid cobalt
#

regardless of what ends up being bis, this is downright disgusting. Having to buff a set by nearly 50% speaks lenghts of how bad they work and implement stuff. I cant believe people defending this crap on the basis of "but unholy is still bis". It doesnt matter, for some class/spec combination it wont be and it's just unfar that people spent time gated resources they wont get back due to blizzard incompetence, period.

#

@full tide yeah but they did confirm no nerfs 2 days ago as a matter of fact

cyan zinc
#

well nothing has been nerfed but they specifically said more tuning might come

#

and thats exactly what happened

full tide
#

I've not been fortunate to get a headpiece yet

#

but I have shoulders so I can make frost set

#

I held off on upgrading to wait for tuning

cyan zinc
#

people were playing frost/blood for the world first because thats what they had access to and it was enough

#

i dont see how having upgraded unholy will be detrimental to you in any way

#

by the end of the patch when padding happens youll have them all upgraded

gentle gyro
cyan zinc
#

unless you quit before then because you clearly get upset at the smallest things imaginable

open reef
#

When sims will suppose to be up ?

gentle gyro
placid cobalt
#

literally all issues would have been avoided by them refounding shards, or giving an heads up. But they didn't, cos they don't care. Thats the issue, regardless of what ends up being bis

#

now come and tell me this was handled properly, go ahead

cyan zinc
#

they did give a headsup, its literally in the bluepost

#
We may make further adjustments in the coming days, but we will not reduce the power of Shards now that many players have earned and upgraded them.
#

how is that not a heads up?

#

what else do you need to not get angry over marginal dps differences in a video game

placid cobalt
#

yeah, so that blue post came out yesterday. U think they didn't know what they were gonna do then? "might make some adjustments" translated into a nearly 50% (FIFTY) within less than 24 hours

#

that could have been 1 whole post, saying no nerfs and explaining buffs, and it would have been fine

young nacelle
#

also imagine getting this upset about it when youre gonna end up maxing out all shards anyway peepaShrug

willow eagle
#

Buffs are fine and not the issue lol

#

Ember acquisition is

radiant fossil
#

Because people wants what's best for their character. Doesnt matter what content. We have the right to be frustrated over things like that.

willow eagle
#

If you make ember acquisition easier then you can be more flexible with swapping gems

young nacelle
#

theres no still point in getting upset, bc its been said 100 times, the frost gem set + dashing is niche as fuck

placid cobalt
#

no the issue is the playerbase defending the company where they clearly are in an undefendable position. This caused issues and drawback for so many people and could literally have been avoided by better communication, or you know, actually testing stuff on ptr.

young nacelle
#

i was upset for like 2 seconds, bc i ALSO upgraded all my unholy shards but like who cares

balmy condor
placid cobalt
#

all they needed to do was to explain the extent of the buffs yesterday, or hold off saying there'd be no nerfs till today

#

literally that would have been it

cyan zinc
#

What are the issues and drawbacks? that people who werent lucky enough to get unholy are now being considered? your unholy set isnt 50% or more ahead of the alternatives?

young nacelle
#

yeah like, i literally just got my unholy bonus THIS WEEK, and as soon as they said no nerfs, i said ok bet

cyan zinc
young nacelle
#

just bc they buffed something else doesnt make unholy worthless peepaShrug

#

yall wild af

placid cobalt
#

@cyan zinc whatever man, you're right, blizz did everything good here, no issues, i guess fanboys will be fanboys. If you cannot understand how wasting a timegated currency is an issue, ive really nothing more to say to you

young nacelle
#

it isnt gonna make or break your progression raiding, gamers. relax

radiant fossil
#

The issue is i had all frost and blood since one week but i waited to drop all uh to upgrade them because it was the optimal things. One day later they buff others set and uh is maybe not the bst choice now

#

Thats why im kinda angry Ragey

placid cobalt
#

imagine u save enough soul ash to make rank 6 legendary, i tell you it's ok it wont get nerfed, u craft it and next day i buff another legendary by 50%. But u see no issue there right?

slim jay
cyan zinc
placid cobalt
#

again, youre not seeing my point. it's not about me. its not about which set is bis. Afaik unholy might still be bis, and im pissed anyway because their way of handling things is dirsrespecful to people investing time into the game. but it's clear you don't see that so let's leave it

slim jay
#

As long as frost doesnt get miles ahead of unholy its not a big deal

young nacelle
#

^^^^^^

slim jay
#

The nerf would have been way worse

#

Just be thankful for that i guess

young nacelle
#

p sure they even said the buffs were to make everything more on par with each other.

#

so yeah maybe frost ends up being BARELY better but are you really gonna throw a shit fit over 50 dps? like come on

placid cobalt
#

they could have literally waited one more day before saying there'd be no nerfs, and make one unique post with the buffs included, to give people some transparency in the choice. It would have literally be that simple.

slim jay
#

Ill know what to craft depending on if i finally get my helm in my weekly cache madge

young nacelle
#

i mean tbf, they didnt say no changes at all. they just said no nerfs

placid cobalt
#

that's if you really think that they didn't know the extent of the buffs 24 hours ago which is beyond naive. They knew and didnt care, it's that simple

young nacelle
#

so if youre a doof, like most of us who immediately upgraded our unholy gems, then thats literally just on us lmfao

#

it aint that deep

placid cobalt
#

yeah but "there might be further tuning" is different than a 50% flat buff less than 24 hours later cmon, have a bit of intellectual honesty at least

#

but whatever, im done typing, if u believe they did good then good for you, i guess. for me it's the last straw in a pretty long list of fuckups

young nacelle
#

literally no one said they did good.

#

what

wild storm
#

any clue on when they might fix the serrated bone spike bug? I don't want to reroll venythr was jesus it's annoying.

vestal wren
#

if you followed our talk in subtlety yesterday it seemed to us likely to see buffs to frost/blood

slim jay
#

People who spent all their embers maxing their unholy shards PepeLaugh

odd hazel
#

imagine being this upset

young nacelle
vestal wren
#

frost won't be good before high ranks in it

#

so i wouldn't be upset

#

unholy is still rly strong

slim jay
#

You can still use the unholy

#

Pretty sure frost might be like barely ahead but we will see

rocky pecan
#

still 3 day before the NA reset so thing can change

gentle gyro
#

the unholy set gave me ~1k dps

#

like, it's still insane

young nacelle
#

like i said, i was mildly annoyed about it for all of 5 minutes.

i literally, just this week, got my 3rd unholy shard (have had all 3 frost/blood and no fucking sockets for them) and was able to use the set bonus, so as soon as i saw no nerfs were happening, i got excited and upgraded them asap.

slim jay
#

Please continue malding peeps. popcorn

young nacelle
#

so for me, probably the best call bc who the fuck knows when ill see shoulders/chest anyway

odd hazel
#

even if i get

#

all UH gems to rank 5

#

i'll still be like

#

"oh, gotta upgrade frost now?"

#

oh well

#

time to do that i guess

slim jay
#

Mostly will just be annoying to buy a new lego

odd hazel
#

why im not upgrading to r5/6.

#

its not like upgrading your leggo is a huge increase any way

young nacelle
#

im still on the obed hype train, waiting for it to be actually bis over doomblade

strange python
#

they shouldve waited a few weeks then wed have all the shards upgraded anyway

young nacelle
slim jay
#

Same. Im a smart player and waiting for the changes to settle down.

odd hazel
#

itys better in M+

slim jay
#

Im not poor i promise

odd hazel
#

oh im poor--- but, i wasnt going to upgrade any time soon any way

slim jay
#

Its because im big brain. Not because im poor

wild storm
slim jay
#

Like 70k

rocky pecan
#

1 gold

wild storm
#

... 70k can't get you half a lego lol

rocky pecan
#

just farm korthite then ask for a guuys to craft you

slim jay
#

Someone buy my boe pls

young nacelle
slim jay
#

I spent all my gold completing t3 druid

young nacelle
#

im trying to not spend all my gold on battle pets

strange python
#

just use your moms credit card on wow tokens ez

young nacelle
slim jay
#

Ill give someone a stack of minecraft diamonds

young nacelle
#

👀

#

bet

#

im sitting on 2 r6 cloaks so i can upgrade obed and eventually craft doomblade

#

or maybe do neither and craft dashing peepaShrug

slim jay
#

Who needs rank 6 legos

young nacelle
slim jay
#

My raud doesnt even have a monk not like im parsing anyway

#

Raid*

young nacelle
#

mine has 3 rogues peepoweirding

#

i hate it here

odd hazel
#

I got 2 UH shards this week which gave me the bonus, the guardian trinket, a 4th domination socket, and the heroic WPS conduit. I think I ran out of luck blobsweat

slim jay
#

Mine has 1 other and he got the sylvanas dagger before me

#

So im mad peepomad

young nacelle
#

i got norm sylv dagger week 1 from vault and have been absolutely cucked on loot drops since

#

if i knew it was gonna be like this, i wouldnt have taken it lmfao

odd hazel
#

I simmed and heroic sylv daggers are better then a 252 dagger

slim jay
#

I just badly need the helm

young nacelle
#

yeah i simmed heroic sylv dagger and its worst than my 252 mh so :/

slim jay
#

Hopefully i get it in box

young nacelle
#

but everyone keeps saying those daggers are kind dookie for sin anyway so meh

odd hazel
#

Prob will be like that once I get higher ilvl

#

I mean

#

It wasn’t higher by a lot

#

They are “okay” for us

slim jay
#

And sylv dagger is all st right

young nacelle
#

yeah i think so

#

someone asked that the other day

slim jay
#

So for m+ you probably sill use ilvl

young nacelle
#

i think fuu said it was st

slim jay
#

I just want the mog

young nacelle
#

its sicc

slim jay
#

Cool dagger

young nacelle
#

slim jay
#

I almost have all normal tmog set

young nacelle
#

young nacelle

young nacelle
odd hazel
young nacelle
slim jay
#

Mechgnome is based

young nacelle
#

terrible take

#

nightborne best race

#

NA

odd hazel
#

imagine choosing to be bad

slim jay
#

Psure mechagnome racials are actually nuts

odd hazel
#

young nacelle
#

being alliance on purpose

odd hazel
#

emergency heal and main stat

young nacelle
slim jay
#

The drawback is youre a poopy diaper baby

odd hazel
#

i wear a robe so its GG

slim jay
#

A rogue in a dress

odd hazel
#

i cant wear pants so

young nacelle
#

some dresses are nice 👀

odd hazel
#

physically doesnt let you t-mog it

young nacelle
#

lmao really?

slim jay
#

At least its not plate

#

Yes

young nacelle
#

imagine

odd hazel
#

Cant t-mog gloves, pants, boots

young nacelle
slim jay
#

It makes you look like youre wearing a diaper

odd hazel
#

which why im wearing a robe

slim jay
#

It tmogs like the crotch area

#

No legs

young nacelle
#

i almost want to make a mechagnome just to see this myself and laugh at it

slim jay
#

Make a warrior or dk

#

Big metal diaper

young nacelle
#

i wanted to sim myself but im in m+ talents peepoweirding

slim jay
#

Sim top gear and just change talents..

young nacelle
#

u rite

slim jay
#

Like i said. Its because im smart, not poor.

young nacelle
odd hazel
#

TBH. im on Stormrage @slim jay and i think a r6 is only like 135k

#

so big brain and wait it out

young nacelle
#

tsm says theyre 130k on illidan

slim jay
#

They are still close to 200 on hyjal

#

I think

young nacelle
#

gross

slim jay
#

Been playing minecraft all week

young nacelle
#

is bs/ds worth using like at all this tier? or is ep/vig just the play

odd hazel
#

its better

#

people just prefer EP/VIg

young nacelle
odd hazel
#

plus ep/vig is better with multiple adds

#

also

#

ep/vigor is only like 50 dps behind if that for people

young nacelle
#

yeah theres like a 100+ish difference between the two for me

#

i just see people asking about it a lot so idk if its genuinely a personal preference thing or if its legitimately not worth running

slim jay
#

Someone said ep is just easier and better on fights with any target swapping or multitargetting

odd hazel
#

its 99% personal preference and its better for burst

#

what Vtuber said

young nacelle
odd hazel
#

but if you're like my raid and adds die super quick, fuck it. blow pure ST up

#

could use it for like the nine though

worthy cliff
#

Id like obedience but i dont want to betray my covenant

#

Friendship is more important than dps for me

young nacelle
#

i mean i was running bs/ds for the first like 2 weeks or w.e and it seemed fine, but i ran ep/vig this week and it does feel a little smoother but i feel like i could shit out more dps if i just do bs/ds regardless

slim jay
#

Eye, 9, soulrender, fatescribe, kt

#

Lots of ep fights

odd hazel
#

your adds must live long vtuber

slim jay
#

Yes

young nacelle
#

yeah i exclusively run obed, and i love it. but it fucking sucks on sylv prog bc it lines up with any time she runs away for chains or other shit

slim jay
#

They do...

young nacelle
#

so thats why i kind of want to make doomblade but meh

#

its great on literally every other fight in the raid

#

(for me)

worthy cliff
#

I just got doomblade and im lazy to make any other one

odd hazel
#

besides, i get stuck on runes on fatescribe, orbs on remnant, and KT adds die super quickly ( i get thrown up any way )

slim jay
#

Doomblade is a good all purpose

solar dune
#

Should i be crafting obedience

#

or using doomblade

young nacelle
#

doom

slim jay
#

You do orbs on rem?

south belfry
#

craft dn

young nacelle
#

but sim it

odd hazel
#

Obedience sims better then zold for M+ for me

slim jay
odd hazel
slim jay
#

You not have a dh?

young nacelle
#

yeah my guild makes all the rogues do orbs

#

meanwhile, we have a dh

odd hazel
#

yes but its a tank

young nacelle
#

and like 3 shamans

worthy cliff
#

Yep I do the orbs too

slim jay
#

Wtf

worthy cliff
#

I even do the chains on soulrender

odd hazel
#

^

young nacelle
#

lol same

odd hazel
#

that too i forgot

worthy cliff
#

Then they ask me where my parsing is

odd hazel
#

still does top damage though so GG

worthy cliff
#

Ill do barely average parsing at the end of the season when i get used to it knowing me

young nacelle
#

im the worst rogue on the team OMEGALUL

slim jay
#

I think i had to pick up 1 orb on rem this week because noone else was doing it so i got mad

worthy cliff
#

Psh If i dont do it someone will fuck it up

slim jay
#

Feel so dumb walking to the edge

worthy cliff
#

its a team effort

#

as long as you kill the boss thats all that counts

young nacelle
#

i actively try to avoid the orbs bc when i do them, they call dispels and i get bumped off more often than not

#

which is annoying as fuck

#

like i know yall see me running to the fuckin edge

#

can u wait 2 seconds

worthy cliff
#

Yeah the orb and dispel timing is trash

#

i hate it

slim jay
#

If there is someone better suited to do it then why

young nacelle
odd hazel
#

competent > better

slim jay
#

Ex. Havoc, night faes pally horses

young nacelle
#

yeah we got plenty of that

worthy cliff
#

Yeah i know but if they dont then better to do it yourself

young nacelle
#

but they have the rogues running orbs

worthy cliff
#

I dont wanna risk it if i can do it

odd hazel
#

they dont want to be embarrased in damage to much

shadow helm
#

this shite bad?

worthy cliff
#

havoc and embarrassment in dmg

shadow helm
young nacelle
#

i will genuinely wait until the last possible moment before i do orbs peepaShrug

worthy cliff
#

fucker just beams it and hes done

#

they have 5 buttons max

slim jay
#

Thats good

#

Hop

young nacelle
#

someone else will usually get it before i do, so i just keep doin what i do best

worthy cliff
#

not dying

young nacelle
#

which is mid-tier dps

slim jay
#

Good aoe trinket

young nacelle
worthy cliff
#

Yeah great trinket

slim jay
#

I just get frustrated when im assigned to mechanics that are better done by another class

young nacelle
#

i hate responsibilities at all.

#

i just wanna dps

slim jay
#

Youre just making the boss harder

#

And ruining my damage

young nacelle
#

let me do dam pls

slim jay
young nacelle
#

its all my class is good for

slim jay
#

Maybe ill jist reroll toa buff class

#

Then it wont matter i can be bad

worthy cliff
#

I tend to do mechanics

#

because i dont trust my guild

young nacelle
#

ive tried main swapping to other things and i just cant do it. i think the longest i was off rogue was like 2 months, i played frost mage back in wod and then was like, fuck this i want my rogue back

worthy cliff
#

I only played rogue and dh a bit

young nacelle
#

tried to be a priest for like 3 weeks, immediately went back to rogue

worthy cliff
#

I choose him because i like sneaky characters

young nacelle
#

if i cant play my rogue, i dont wanna play tbh

slim jay
#

This is my first patch as rogue

#

Normally im boomkin/hunter

worthy cliff
#

I just started playing around end of october

#

boomkin good lord

#

their dmg

slim jay
#

Too bad the ecliose system is annoying

worthy cliff
#

im like happy with almost 8k

young nacelle
#

yeah i played a rogue back in vanilla, quit until mop, and immediately went right back to the rogue.

worthy cliff
#

they come in with 11 near 12k

young nacelle
#

its all i play

shadow helm
#

bro..

slim jay
#

Boomkins just have insane cds

young nacelle
#

nothing else is fun enough for me. peepaShrug

shadow helm
#

frost ass yuge buff

slim jay
#

They are trash outside cds. Just the cds are so good it makes up for it and more

#

Like old fire mage

young nacelle
#

yeah i tried boomie once. was pretty meh

#

ret pally

#

all warlock specs

#

hunter

#

shaman

#

everything

#

i hate them

#

theyre boring

slim jay
#

Warlock is a good pick if you want to pug raids

#

Undergeared? Well we need sums so fuck it we will carry you.

young nacelle
#

legion was the only time i actively played my rogue, warlock, and mage. i raided 6 days a week. it was wild lmao

slim jay

2 much

young nacelle
#

i was bored

slim jay
#

Was considering gearing my hunter

#

Just turn my brain off and play bm

worthy cliff
#

Me im just lazy to play other classes even though i dont mind dh

young nacelle
#

same. i wanna level/gear it slightly so i can get sylv leggos lmfao

worthy cliff
#

I just dont wanna do the hassle again

#

ash and cinders, the missions and all that

#

takes way too long

#

im a monogamous character player

young nacelle
#

yeah thats why i havent bothered with any alts too heavily. i wanna see all covenant stories and stuff, but its just too fucking much

slim jay
#

Once my main is geared i do alts

worthy cliff
#

Way too much

#

Gonna take time for my main to get geared

young nacelle
#

like i even made an alt rogue on another account, and just the thought of having to redo everything ive already done on my main again

worthy cliff
#

Here people barely want me for m+

young nacelle
#

stopped playing that one real quick

slim jay
#

In your guild or pugging?

young nacelle
#

i can get into pugs okay

#

i think they get annoyed when they realize im a sin one trick tho lmfao

worthy cliff
#

pugging

#

guild dont think they want me compared to other mythic raiders

young nacelle
#

my guild groups are fine. i have no issues getting in with a group of gamers there either

worthy cliff
#

I just try to pug to get ksm

young nacelle
#

yeah i had to pug my ksm last tier, and ended up buying a timed 15 key bc all my pugs kept failing for the last one i needed

slim jay
#

I wish my guild did more m+. The good players kinda just pug spammed whatever key drops their bis

#

No one ever offers keys either

young nacelle
#

yeah i need to spam pfs...i really need a better phial :/

#

i have a 220

worthy cliff
#

I never got it....

slim jay
#

I dont have one

worthy cliff
#

i got the ooze thing

#

dunno from where that is

young nacelle
#

yeah ive seen plenty of those

slim jay
#

I have the mailbot trinket and decanter

young nacelle
#

i even have my guildies try to roll the phial for me and it just never drops in any group i do it in

#

its pain

worthy cliff
#

I got that trinket

#

the ones that gives you crit but then you get agility boost

#

for a moment

young nacelle
#

i got fusion amp and a doodoo phial

worthy cliff
#

Hell im so unlucky that i had to do past season with 200 ilvl daggers

young nacelle
#

i think i got fusion amp last week? out of vault. was pretty hype about that one

worthy cliff
#

Ohhh thats bis isnt it?

young nacelle
#

i think so ye

#

last time i saw trinket sims, i didnt see it. but i simmed my whole vault, and then checked bloodmallet and i was like

#

ohh 👀

worthy cliff
#

I still gotta learn how to sim i just slam quick sim and thats it

slim jay
#

I wish this tazavesh mailbot triket came higher than 233

odd hazel
#

Fusion amp > phial is the best combo

slim jay
#

Its pretty good

young nacelle
#

i need to actually do tazavesh

#

i did it week 1 and then never did it again

#

got my mount and never went back lmao

odd hazel
#

im not worried about anything from taz

slim jay
#

Its always 4-5% of my dam

young nacelle
#

yeah like, i dont think theres anything particularly useful in there, besides maybe the trinket, but theres better stuff in raid and m+ so i dont feel like i NEED to do taza weekly

slim jay
#

I do it weekly for the sword tmog and mount

small bramble
#

anyone try frost domination bonus to see how mych dmg diff than unholy it is?

odd hazel
#

the trinket isnt BiS so im not even going for it

#

if i happen to get it i might use it

young nacelle
#

i dont think theres any hard sims done yet for the frost set buffs

#

its all speculation rn p sure?

odd hazel
#

if i did my sims correctly even right now dashing + max rank frost is like a little less then 100 higher

small bramble
#

yea cause i cant get the helm to drop and i have the frost one rdy to go xD

young nacelle
#

i mean just use what you got tbh.

#

i didnt have any set bonuses until week. had the unholy helm drop pretty early, no other dom sockets, all gems except unholy gems

#

until this week

#

shit system

small bramble
#

the low ilvl sacrifice makes me question wether to go frost

#

guess i can jusg sim

young nacelle
#

are the buffs live yet or are they with reset?

small bramble
#

i just that raidbots wasnt simming correctly those bonuses

#

reset

languid light
#

So are the changes live yet? For the frost set since I've got both unholy and frost in my bags rn

cosmic sandal
#

What's the consensus on dashing scoundral +winds of winter build compared to others?

small bramble
#

not yet reset

languid light
#

ah, aight

cosmic sandal
#

too early to say anything?

young nacelle
#

yep

#

probably wont know anything until reset happens and the buffs are live and stuff

steep torrent
#

Realy? "before you invest all of your embers" we already did that to unholy, we have nothing to invest 😄

cosmic sandal
#

!guides

rustic portal
odd hazel
#

only 91 ahead.

#

see

#

look

#

calm down

cosmic sandal
#

question- whens best time to use when opening?

south belfry
#

Use what

cosmic sandal
#

fleg**

#

soz

south belfry
#

Before first rupture

cosmic sandal
#

kk ty

odd hazel
#

its even less ahead with dashing

rustic portal
#

have only 33% crit and I'am a necro

kind talon
#

Yep

worthy cliff
#

Oh wow didnt know 33% crit is low

odd hazel
#

its not

kind talon
#

It is for frost set

#

Also, his sim is current gear

#

Before the Tuesday buffs

#

Frost will mega stonk then

rocky pecan
#

well

#

he is simming with r5

#

i sim almost the same 100 dps less as sin without r5 uh 😒

#

with 5 less ilvl

#

so idk abouut frost

worthy cliff
#

Shame the only shard i dont have is 1 frost shard

#

I have all else

kind talon
#

He’s necro

rocky pecan
#

and ?

kind talon
worthy cliff
#

Im too

#

I love my necrochads

rocky pecan
#

i already did clown

#

it's

#

-1K dps

odd hazel
#

the buffs also havent gone into play yet

rocky pecan
#

actuually

#

without the next bufff

kind talon
#

I’m extremely dubious

#

That rank 5 frost is -1k dps compared to rank 5 unholy

rocky pecan
#

i simmed

#

at rank 4

#

same as my UH

kind talon
#

Yeah idk

#

Number of things could be at play

rocky pecan
#

yup

kind talon
#

But losing 1k dps is insane

rocky pecan
#

yup

kind talon
#

Do you have the shoulders?

rocky pecan
#

yup

kind talon
#

Lmao wtf

rocky pecan
#

got all sock/shard

kind talon
#

Link sim

#

Im interested now

rocky pecan
#

i dont have now only my normal sim im trying some shit as sub but if you want make test with my sim youu can if you want

tacit knoll
#

what stats would you recommend for dashing scroundel?

rocky pecan
#

i would like do another run for proof you

kind talon
rocky pecan
#

but i cant swap conduit 😄

odd hazel
#

imagine

#

using nadjia

#

and not having dauntless

#

oh

#

theotar

#

why the fuck was it showing nadjia for me

rocky pecan
#

imagine

#

xd

worthy cliff
#

Man when i play i always feel like every other rogue has 500 energy

#

Or super regen

shut garnet
#

have the set changes been implemented into simc yet?

odd hazel
#

they havent evne been changed yet

rocky pecan
#

so if clown you see something i made badly for sim 1K less as frost gems let me know

#

but im pretty sure i didnt missed something

odd hazel
#

i mean

#

you are using theo for ST

kind talon
#

rank4

#

sims

#

btw

worthy cliff
#

wait wait wait

#

there are chests and shoulders???

kind talon
#

its about a 200 dps difference

rocky pecan
#

where did i failed ?

kind talon
#

idk

rocky pecan
#

if i saw 1K

#

hum

kind talon
#

sec

rocky pecan
#

OH

odd hazel
rocky pecan
#

i KNOW

kind talon
#

lemme sim with dashing

rocky pecan
#

i know

worthy cliff
#

I had no idea

rocky pecan
#

when i simmed i prolly missed put shoulder i see only this XD

worthy cliff
#

Are they special drops from a boss or was i just unlucky

odd hazel
#

just unlucky

#

they drop from bosses like any other peice

kind talon
worthy cliff
#

Well damn

#

I played raids every week and never got em

rocky pecan
#

it's only this miss shoulder possible

kind talon
#

yeah idk

#

dashing not great for your profile yet

#

but remember this is before buffs so

rocky pecan
#

im missing

#

almost 130 crit

#

shoulder/hands

#

i got the poly /mastery one

outer kernel
#

i guess i did something wrong xD

#

or i am missing something

rocky pecan
#

no head

#

for impie bonus ?

#

so it's i think normal

#

actually

outer kernel
#

got hands with domination socket

#

but he dont want me to put it in

willow osprey
#

hey all, im new to assa, I mainly play it for raid. But im hesitating between crafting Doomblade or the new Venthyr Leggo. Any recommendations?

worthy cliff
#

Some people like Obedience some like doomblade

#

But tbh you wont fuck up if you choose any of those 2

odd hazel
#

obedience is better for M+ if you're venth

worthy cliff
#

Though were waiting for the reset to check out another one

willow osprey
#

thanks man, appreciate it 😛

kind talon
worthy cliff
#

Bask into the average assa joe

serene wharf
odd hazel
#

It was 100 ahead of zold for me last time I simmed

mild dagger
#

What slot are y’all crafting obedience in?

#

Like which piece of gear

manic haven
#

Cloak

sterile chasm
#

Frost is buffed?

kind talon
#

tuesday

vestal wren
#

also sims are experimental

#

so take any sim you see as speculation

winged moss
#

maybe outlaw will be better with frost

vestal wren
#

it seems very strong with frost

strange python
#

is the frost buff in the sims, and if not will it only be in them by tuesday?

kind talon
#

we dont know the buff

strange python
#

I can sim for it myself then?

vestal wren
kind talon
#

check pins in outlaw

#

oh

#

subtlety i guess

#

but we dont know the exact value yet

vestal wren
#

but its inherently based on interpretations of the bluepost

kind talon
#

yep

strange python
#

ahh ok, will try when i'm on my PC later then

vestal wren
#

we don't have the actual data on what changes yet

#

you can use advanced sim or expert mode

#

(expert mode is under custom apl and allowes you to use the overwrite in all sim types)

#

from what it looks at first glace is that outlaw benefits the most and subtlety the least from the buffs

#

assassination is somewhere between

#

outlaw goes a bit crazy if you optimize gear and can see a uprise of ~10% dps

kind talon
#

10% from the unholy?

#

yeah

vestal wren
#

10% from what we have now in the tier profile

kind talon
#

no

vestal wren
#

frost is atm already better for outlaw but not used

#

so it won't be a 10% for frost to frost

kind talon
#

yes but with gear optimizations minus the buff

#

frost with current gear is 12.6 and buff makes it 13.3

#

sorry, bis gear

#

not current

#

but yeah its about 10% for the unholy profile

#

the tier profile is unholy yeah?

vestal wren
#

tier profile is at 11.8k
frost + gear change is 12.65 (like you mentioned) -- + 7%
buff makes it 12.95 -- + 9.8% or 2.4% up from before buff

#

so the buff only has minor impact, the biggest change comes from the gear change + bugfixes

winged moss
#

so we going back to outlaw

#

😄

dull mural
#

Whats up peeps! So... yall switching back to venthyr from necro?

strange python
#

I dont know as it really means outlaw becomes better

dull mural
#

or waiting for the bug to get fixed?

strange python
#

its great with an optimised gearset but thats hard to achieve

#

maybe it does just become better idk

real bay
#

had enough of outlaw last tier

#

plsgod no

winged moss
#

btw ma+ks with frost shards?

odd hazel
#

Didn’t realize this was outlaw MonkaSes

odd hazel
young nacelle
#

last time i played outlaw was when it was hella busted in emerald nightmare

odd hazel
young nacelle
#

i want to keep it that way

odd hazel
#

Tbh I never felt like I needed to play outlaw this expansion besides the beginning

real bay
#

most prog was before 9.0.5 so it was outlaw 😩

young nacelle
manic haven
#

Will be interesting to see frost set sims between specs and cov with more current gear levels as opposed to full BIS profiles

odd hazel
#

Or sub tbh

young nacelle
#

i miss bis lists SadgeCry

odd hazel
#

I miss tier sets

manic haven
odd hazel
#

I’m in no rush to build r5/6 due to everything changing. I’ll wait till it settles down

placid pagoda
#

Am i right in understanding that SBS ticks are meant to give combo points right?

burnt star
placid pagoda
#

okay thanks for clarificaiton

burnt star
#

So if u use sbs on 3 target

#

As long as they are alive. Ur 4th cast will give 3 extra cp

placid pagoda
#

I see

#

i saw they did patch notes and still no fix for SBS

burnt star
#

They did not

placid pagoda
#

it aint getting fixed anytime soon is it

untold nest
#

Imagine u have 4 sbs out and each tick gave combo points :kreygasm:

odd hazel
#

You would never mut again

placid pagoda
#

i have the urge to go back to Venty boy

#

i just know they wont address the SBS

odd hazel
#

Do it, it’s the way venthyr

fallen arch
#

Its not

placid pagoda
#

i like the strong tree setup for necro tho

odd hazel
#

Shut up oz bahrooree

fallen arch
#

I’m not swapping

placid pagoda
#

like one for outlaw, one for raid assa

odd hazel
#

Gross outlaw

fallen arch
#

Ye it blows

topaz sphinx
#

Hey Guys 😉 Question, would it be wise to make a R6 Cloak with Obedience or should I wait and save my cinders etc? (atm I got R4 with Doomblade)

fallen arch
#

But I’ll stay necro this expansion

odd hazel
#

I would wait to see how the dashing works out

#

I just like lashing to much to give it up

fallen arch
#

For now it’s wise to wait

#

With upgrading anything

topaz sphinx
#

I like it too, but many players are telling me that Obedience is the way to go, but I guess that can change fast. So not sure if I should spend or

#

yeah seems like a wise idea @fallen arch

placid pagoda
#

@limber lion is Venth looking the strongest cov with all soulbinds unlocked?

high phoenix
#

Put them all at r4 if you got the soul ash. R4 capes are like 8k in mats. Not bad.

placid pagoda
fallen arch
#

Multi speccing with sub ye

placid pagoda
#

I'm really on the fence, JPC said why would you play a cov thats defining spell is bugged af and wont be fixed

fallen arch
#

Well

topaz sphinx
fallen arch
#

For the content it’s best for which is m+ it isnt all that bad. As long as you dont slam 2 charges into a target you’re fine

steel bane
#

It's not fine

placid pagoda
#

Back to venty i go

fallen arch
#

No it sucks balls, but you can kinda play around it I guess

steel bane
#

Bug 1: At some point in a fight, sbs will no longer grant extra CP for active bleeds on your main-target. This means you will get 1cp baseline from any additional spikes. We don't understand the root cause for this and it isn't always repeatable.

#

This is very very bad

worthy cliff
#

Nah I cant be arsed to do all lvls for venthyr

#

I cant betray my necrochads

fallen arch
#

Same

#

I’ll be here hoping it will he fixed one day soon

hollow talon
hollow escarp
#

I know I'm coping but the bug isn't that bad that it's unplayable, it's just very annoying

#

you can still do nice damage

hollow talon
#

i think at a certain gear point obe edges out but we're not there yet

hollow escarp
#

rank 1 all stars mythic assa is necro btw

fallen arch
steel bane
#

I know, but when it does it's extremely annoying and unrewarding

static glacier
fallen arch
#

Don’t forget player skill is a way bigger determinant of ranking than an active bug on 1 of your abilities

static glacier
#

As well

steel bane
#

...

hollow escarp
#

me an Oz coping hard

#

but it's fine

odd hazel
fallen arch
static glacier
#

You can go necro even with the bug and do fine

fallen arch
#

It just was there one day 😂

steel bane
#

for the amount we pay monthly this type of bug is not acceptable imho. But it's a game in the end of the day so life moves on

hollow escarp
#

tbf, I never noticed the less cp from sbs bug yet

#

just the refund one

#

maybe I should compare logs before and after the bug hmm

fiery mauve
#

It’s a trade off

fallen arch
#

But for me the pro’s of necro still outweigh the cons

fiery mauve
#

Yeah you get Kevin

#

Kevin’s cool

#

@balmy condor “fuck Kevin”

hollow escarp
#

Mnemonic Equipment > Kevin

love Kevin though, nothing personal

Embrace Kevin

So, dashing venthy scoundrel ?

north basin

everyone want simple answers as always xD

vestal wren
#

people forget that the only thing we have is a estimate

odd hazel
#

The buffs aren’t even out yet lawl

fallen arch
#

They’ll delay them by a week to address sbs bug

odd hazel
fallen arch
#

I’m so naïve

#

Hey guys !! Little question : how's the buff on frost shards looking for us? Is unholy still our best? I'm not sur regading my sims i think my gear isnt optimized enough...

marble hemlock
#

sbs fixes

marble hemlock
#

and see if deathspike applies kevin to both targets

#

maybe you get 2 kevins

hollow escarp
kindred breach
marble hemlock
#

also, god i missed playing assa in m+

hollow escarp
#

I kinda like Marileth's extra stats from fleshcraft

#

it is fun

marble hemlock
#

ye, esp since you get mastery

#

always

hollow escarp
#

got to 2250 only with assa this season peepoHappy

#

but this week is pretty annoying

#

yo, if Kevin works that way

#

what about Deathspike

marble hemlock
#

still trash, i would guess

alpine latch
#

I still can’t believe I need an IQD now. I gave two of them away…

#

Fucking frost set

hollow escarp
#

I got my IQD because it dropped for a healer and nobody wanted it LULW

#

don't see any use for it yet

alpine latch
#

IQD is my highest simming trinket.

#

I assume because it would give me more crit and crit matters for frost set

lavish lichen
#

It also assumes you get stats everytime

alpine latch
#

Sure. But it was never high for me until I got my Frost set.

#

Once I got that, it’s value spiked.

hollow escarp
#

that's mostly because you have low ilvl trinkets

ebon creek
#

is sin gonna switch to frost set and high crit next reset?

frosty cedar
#

wait sims

hollow escarp
#

and some logs

ebon creek
#

i just crafted obedience like 2 days ago ion 262 lmao

#

then i heard about the unholy nerfs

hollow escarp
#

unholy had no nerfs though

ebon creek
#

unholy gets like 40% dmg reduction next reset no?

eager river
#

no

hollow escarp
#

no

gentle gyro
#

nerfs got cancelled

lavish lichen
#

they put in nerfs, then reverted then said they'll do no nerfs, then they buffed

ebon creek
#

thought they got delayed

lavish lichen
#

bc blizz

ebon creek
#

what the fuck?

frosty cedar
#

no nerfs only frost and blood buffs

ebon creek
#

im even more confused now

lavish lichen
#

reread my message

ebon creek
#

what a blizz thing to do

hollow escarp
#

Frost gets 45% buff and considering there was also some theorycrafting about dashing frost build with crazy good gear, now it only makes it more viable in case everything works properly

ebon creek
#

ahh

#

ty

lavish lichen
#

hopefully the bug fix actually works

hollow escarp
#

by the time we know if the build works, we will have close to 2nd r6 legendary anyway

ebon creek
#

yea true

hollow escarp
#

I already have r4 dashing just to play around next week

north basin
#

and after all will be figured out we suddenly have to switch to outlaw to do bis ST damage xDD

hollow escarp
#

"have to"

shadow pivot
#

I mean before that you already "had to" switch to Sub to do bis ST Damage so

shut flame
#

Guys, how do you open on aoe pack? 4 garr, snd (or ct?), foks, ct (or snd?) and then rupt+garr on every1?

ornate lake
#

not 100% sure if its optimal but, 4x gar - CT - FoK - SnD - Fok in to ruptures

#

But thats what i do atleast

#

use env when SnD is dropping

shut flame
#

Snd or ct first dunno as well

#

Ok, thanks

carmine prairie
#

Hi guys !! which anima do you take in mm +? taking the champion's mark twice is efficient? and should you absolutely take volcanic cloud?

ornate lake
#

dagger does more dmg than volc plumage, but plumage is good to have on trash (so good on fortified weeks) cuz of knockups

#

I dont take champ brand myself tbh

carmine prairie
#

Ok

ornate lake
#

Wowhead says to go champ brand btw

#

but axe does fine too imo

carmine prairie
#

Ok and what you take if you dont take champ? Dagger and volc?

kind talon
#

Can’t take dagger and volc

carmine prairie
#

Oh ok^^ my bad sry

ornate lake
#

no battle axe

#

instead of champ

kind talon
#

Only worth it for tyrannical st situations

ornate lake

it's either dagger or plumage, you can check what ur group takes and balance that out

I have 2 x 252 trinkets and this is how IQD looks like in droptimizer

#

it's all based on your current gear

odd hazel
#

Iqd is only really good for venth and high crit

soft shale
#

tbh iqd will take a back burner as we get closer to 50% crit

rigid pecan
#

is it worth to change my legendary obedience for the doomblade one?

thorny pond
soft shale
#

stat dr is dirty too

#

that also happened to it for m+ sadly

thorny pond
#

There is a case for sub mastery build IQD but that’s really it

soft shale
#

nah you get too much dr as you already run around with a lot

hollow escarp
#

it's good for assa in 40 sec fights

soft shale
#

pog

thorny pond
#

Sylvanas is just 20, 40 second fights

soft shale
#

i mean it would be good to kill mini bosses if you would not skip 3 of the 4 most dungeons

#

im sad about that

hollow escarp
#

I want to try it in M+

#

but already did my 10 keys this week

#

and I don't like bolstering

soft shale
#

yea this week is cursed

#

dont remind me i have to do 5 more

sick cairn
#

my unholy is rank3 but I heard frost will pull ahead after the buff, should i save my embers or should i rank 4 then save for frost?

vestal wren
sick cairn
#

aiight

#

i have 90 embers atm

strange silo
#

i did understand it right frost will only pull ahead with dashing and only in st right? so with obedience the pick would still be unholy

vast forum
#

Maybe but you can just craft dashing instead of being behind on purpose

vestal wren
#

dashing + frost was a about 4% increase

#

but keep in mind this was on highest gem level

strange silo
#

well ok highest gem lvl changes much xd i just upgraded unholy to t4 so it will take a while for frost t5

rocky rain
vestal wren
#

best is to just sim it, but again using overwrites just means you have an estimate

#

its doesen't mean that its the same blizz implements it

@vestal wren with all the frost hype did anyone check how blood is doing in comparison to UH on sims?

vestal wren
#

check my pin in

untold nest
#

Cuz i think if its real close blood is a winner cuz u cant fck up

vestal wren
#

blood is possibly a option for sub

untold nest
#

Like UH if it procs on bad time u lose from ur numbers. Frost if u lose uptime u miss a cycle

#

Blood will sucki sucki and not give an F

#

Talking about practical application =/= sim and blood is closest u will get to sim value i believe

#

Ty didnt see sub pins :D

If we're planning on playing all 3 specs is venth the play still?

#

why would it be bad

dense hamlet

idk

#

no zold in fort keys dosent feel nice does it

#

i just wanna try it in a theater and see if its worth playing or do i lose too much dps

hollow escarp
#

not that bad

#

did a key with another rogue when I was venthyr

I only did 600 less dps overall

#

but had more damage on each boss and anima boss

dense hamlet
#

yeah that seems fair enough for theater atleast

subtle tundra
#

obedience is really good wdym

dense hamlet
#

it simms 200 behind finality for me

#

so ithought its almost the same for assa

hollow escarp
#

probably more

subtle tundra
#

this is assa

#

bruv

hollow escarp
#

as assa doesn't go well with finality

dense hamlet
#

well i mean how far behind is obe from zold

silent fossil
#

i just play ep/vig/ct and use obedience and just slam ST in m+. any of the more aoe centric specs will put you in the dumpster anyway for aoe

dense hamlet
#

if it is that much

subtle tundra
#

obe is better

dense hamlet
#

is it

subtle tundra
#

idk man is it??????

#

i just said

dense hamlet
#

idk why would it sim 2k behind my sub gear then

silent fossil
#

the first key you run with a good ele sham or ww will make you not care about zold for aoe dps

subtle tundra
dense hamlet
#

how did i sim wrong

subtle tundra
#

no leggo is 2k difference my friend*

drifting cloud
#

because uneqiping a legendary isnt 2k dps loss

hollow escarp
#

they are kinda close but as Luna said, you can decide based on your group's dps profile

subtle tundra
