same ole same ole
hmm for some reason im simming higher as Rank 4 unholy Sub than i am as Rank 4 Frost Assass.. dissapointing. Both have high crit and appropriate legendaries
isnt outlaw frost simming higher than sub tho?
with the correct gear it does seem like it
Is it only for me that the whole website on raidbots lags big time when you click " replacing exiting gems/enchants"
big sims = lag
ok so rank 5 frost shards with dashing put me at 9136 st dps 5 mins
link ur sim
I wish u all good luck on ur vault tomorrow, daggers for all of u!

Gotta pray early
more 252 phials please
whos better for aoe theo or nadjia
Anyone else simming high as necro now vs venth?
As a 252 phial haver I bless thy vault @narrow ravine
oh thank you kind sir
Haven’t bothered to look at necro vs venth but diff damage profiles
Idk should sim
Afaik most people playing doomblade assass in raid
But 1min-ish obe can help depending on fight
hmm ok ill try to sim thanks!
so So'leahs w/crit is simming higher than Shadowgrasp 246 for reference im rank 4 frost @ 40% crit with it
its also giving me -250dps for Nidjias vs Hemir, is this because of the crit from gemstones?
doesn't look like you selected thrill seeker
missed it! thanks for checking haha!
So does anyone elses deadly poison just randomly fall off?

yeah after about 60 minutes or so its weird

Prob only after a Torghast run
Only upon exiting torghast for me
You guys don't know how good you have it these days. Used to have to reapply poison every time you zoned.
Is Nadjia still good even with her trait only working off you getting the killing blows?
what trait is that
Thrill Seeker
it stacks passively
looks like both are near identical if you can get the uptime on shade
wdym?
oh boy, 10 wake time as venthyr haha
Should I opening my Box as sin for a 252 dagger or Outlaw for diversity? I have 1 sly hc dagger already
Only 1 person that can answer that question
open it as what you plan on playing, there is no better answer
ur slamming man!!!!
ilvl 93% looks good 

I'm trying to have fun on rogue. I sucked this key. I kept letting SnD fall off.
we 2 chested but not cause of me
What rank is it??
3 or 4 dont remember + 41% crit
Hmmm. Im guessing 4. Cos i jave it at 3 and it was only hitting for 12k non crit
Have*
question dashing still better than doom with frost set as necro? just switched acouple days ago and i dont know if the extra bleed makes it more worth it
They’re pretty close for necro I think
But at higher shard ranks and more gear/crit dashing pulls ahead
I have the same
Hey ma dudes,quick heads up.Doomblade on back with crit/haste aight?
Yes
when do you think it is worth to start fishing for conduit upgrades? im at 30k research, have every socket and one more socket item already in my bag
well i hit 6 10 days ago i guess
Just pump all codex into conduits. I did and i have only 12 left non 252
i did 45 mins korthia a day i think
Korthia fun! Chasing after relic gorgers for hours - entertaining!
does anyone really do that?
In my guild there are ppl who are rank 6
i killed like 3 the whole patch
Yeh i got over korthia real fast. The ppl in our guild who have rank 6 wont get much use out of it as theyre dps will still be average
Even if you get all your bis conduits it's no more than like 50-70 dps
I guess it adds up if you get sockets but most people don't have their bis items for their socket slots yet anyway
I already have 252 WPS so I would just need the venthyr one
Is there some BiS list for sin? To know which m+ dungeons prioritize for items and their upgrades? I guess the answer is sim yourself right?
Pretty much, but you can’t go wrong with targeting some decent crit/haste rings and neck pieces in dungeons
Thanks!
Took me 25 runs
Yeah I cba targeting m+ gear
Took me 60 in s1, got 252 in week 2 of s2 bless that rng
252 phial on W1 vault both seasons, RNJesus
You can use the droptimizer in Raidbots for that.
U need to envenom more in packs
Unless tank take a piss between each pull, if you drop SnD it's a lack of Envenom casts
Yeah I am already using that it's an amazing tool. Would be great if they implemented the option to choose more than 1 "area". for example m+ 252 + mythic raid and then order by slot. Or maybe I am just blind and it's already there 😁
Or dungeon with lots of downtime like DoS, where you often cast 1 SnD at the start of the wing
how much higher does doomblades sim over obedience since everyone on top logs for sin use doomblade
or is it just because they had it highest ilvl

Thats what I farmed
most made doomblade before frost was buffed
Obediance crit/mastery is 70dpsn lower than crit/haste doomblade with my gear
Anyone has opinion on 246 Infinitely Divisible Ooze vs 252 Inscrutable Quantum Device?
In both ST and M+?
Hate on-click trinkets(that cannot be bind to any CD), especially the ones that sometimes gives mana to the healers 
Dont you remember that time people started dying because the healer was out of mana? You could save the day.
If only I could go back in time and focus mostly on envenom and Hunger for Blood without even having rupture/garrote on my bar...
Praise be rng gods. Ill sacrifice a goblin baby tonight for my lord
Still no sylv dagger , i will ry to sacrifice a gnome to the RNG gods
I'm very confused, I tried to sim whether I should spend valor on my phial or my MH dagger (phial to 242 from 239, mh from 236 to 239) and it says that they both sim almost 200 dps lower than what I have 
Post sims?
Link to the sim?
You are missing sinful on it
No enchant
Oh ffs
Its because I added the enchant on a previous sim and forgot to add it when I set it up again
Thanks!




Is the enchant on your weapon in live game??
Confused. How did u use raidbot? Didnt u take the latest simc of your gear
Juat curious
No offense meant
Yeah I did, but then I did gear compare to add the updated ilevel versions of the gear I had
nvm
lol fuu
The enchant should show then. Weird
Well I can't do Top Gear for gear that doesn't exist yet 😉

you can
Ahhh ok nvm
you can add gear to your bag string from wowhead
U added a new weapon
but its easier to use gear compare
Aaah ok, yeah I guess, but yeah gear compare seemed designed for my scenario haha
Just needs to switch ilvl in his simc string
Gear compared can just be a pain to use
Imo
Fair
idk seems easier than faffing about with duplicating item strings for what I imagine is a tiiiny bit harder to read result
For valor upgrade u don’t duplicate it
If u already have it u just find that item in the string and switch the ilvl
Ez pz
Well I guess if u were testing it against the current ilvl
You’d dupe
Yeah I was about to say
but also got 2x 252 in vault so maybe lucky
Phial less likely to be replaced
Remnant dagger seems easy to come by
If you’re raiding mythic
9/10 hc atm
You could also hold valor if u don’t need the immediate upgrade and see what you get this week/next couple weeks
I’ve spent no valor but I got no m+ wep or phial
Same
I’ve got heroic remnant dagger
Need vein ripper so bad
how do you guys open in 2 targets? Was thinking in The Nine
hey is there anyone with premium sim up who can help me out real quck
You just open as normal on Krelya and spread a rupture to the other boss after your shiv window
Pretty sure
Literally doesn’t matter
I was just doing regular ST on one and applying bleeds on second after shiv, not like I have a bad parse, I have a 95 in HC but wanted to see what to improve
Or you can garrote during shiv window on cd
Yep but nice to have energy regen during half the vendetta
Garrote during shiv
O.o
O.o
What?
Idk about that
I would wait shiv window to finish before applying to the second target
Yea^
but I have seen in top logs things like apply first all bleeds and then vendetta
and you delay the vendetta like 10 seconds
Yeah but
You don’t wanna delay CDs
It’s irrelevant
Depending on your fight time
The only thing you don’t do is rupture during shiv window
Ehh
the impact is rather small but I would like to have the muscle memory
If you 100% won’t miss a cast of vendetta or flag, cast them after dotting up is a play for sure
But that’s for farm, not prog
If you’re going for a parse
Also @hollow river you realize that garrote isn’t an energy sink right
It’s just less cp efficient than mutilate
But it’s one of your main energy generation and damaging abilities

Not too bad tbh
Especially on opener
You try to avoid it though?
I dont know the timings but maybe if you delay garrote for the shiv window it will come off from the first target
Sec lemme theorize an opener rq
you still do it
I know
ye
its worse than having shiv end and then refreshing
of course
ceverions rank 1 parse

on the 9
ah i guess its rank 3 now
so he just applies Rupture and garrote to second target the soonest he can
Mut-snd first boss mut-gar-rup 2nd boss, mut gar flag rup first boss continue normal opener
Yeah but I believe Cev is the one who told me the things I’m saying xD
well those two openers are different, I guess that the impact is almost negilible
Big crit mut for ultra min Max 
just because you "avoid REapplying garrote and rupture" doesnt mean that you "avoid applying garrote and rupture"
the common theme is that you want garrotes and ruptures on enemies
yes of course
because they are the most important thing for sin energy generation
yeah
Either way it’s all minor
I mean its kinda feelcraft tho
Yeah in a way
i mean
U could probably so a 2 target 30 sec boss sim And see what simcraft does tbh
im telling u to apply garrote to second target
and ur telling me that cev said to u to wait on rupture
2 target 2 minute sim
which is not garrote
i promise
i want u to do the best dps u can
and that means spread garrote, its OP as fuck bro

just ask him again i guess
^
Generally you want to use Shiv on cooldown, and with both rupture/garrote ticking on your main target.
It doesn't really matter if you use Gar/Rup during the Shiv window, especially in multiple target encounters.
They’re talking about the nine opener
If you lust on pull, I would recommend opening up normally on your main target and applying garrote on your secondary target, but not rupture.
Once your first Shiv window is over, you should apply the rupture to the secondary target as well.
Why not chuck a cheeky rupture on second tsrget? Dont need the energy gen?
with lust no
Not with Lust
And the dmg im guessing is eh either way inside hero
Generally having both gar/rup on both targets before using all cds is a gain, but it also delays Vend/Vanish/Shiv so it's not generally worth it, unless you're 100% sure you won't miss a cast of each.
During lust with 3 dots you're already at energy saturation*, especially with Vendetta rolling in the beginning.
Saturation *
Starvation or flood?
im not sure how to sim this if its even possible or if this is generally just an opinion/experience question. but for playing sin in m+ is Zoldycks generally better than doomblade/obd/Dash or only in fortified weeks
The sim currently only applies garrote on both targets during the opener and rupture after the fact.
Saturation, sorry typo
Always iirc
Good to know
You should play Zoldyck and CT in every dungeon, every week.
I wont have my sin up and running for another week anyway.
thanks 😄
Someone wanna guess how much haste I have currently?
13%
12%
fuck
From having 30%+ as unholy Necro, to less than 15% as frost Venthyr
Nice! Im vlose to those stats. I have a bit more crit tho but less haste
just need to get new shoulders to dump my last bit of mastery 
Close*
Lemme see them crits tho gurl 
👍 thats good
I just need rank 4 frost set
Which will be next week
I know i can sim but.. do we bother with sylv dagger as assa frost?
My mh is 252 sylv dagger 233 oh
is there any way to gear daggers fast, i did mist 10000x no weapons. im still outlaw but wanna try sin
Outlaw frost is awsome atm
Just keep farming and make sure ur loot specialization is set to assassination
soon 40% crit
for me a 239 OH beats 233 Sylvana's
competitive in raids? like sin dmg
ur weapons kinda suck
ye it is haha 😛
should work on those
high rolling vault
sadge
going to start hoarding daggers
but on a serious note is using two bad
i got to say i started my rogue last week, so im still only ilvl 226 but i got 3 frost shards tho.
sorry 2 frost shards
show vers tho
Perfect secondaries
i think he needs some vers
Vers = straight up dmg
yes I could swap like 100 haste for 100 vers
Nadjas duantless talent is basically 3% vers
anyone know about this tho, sims are showing me that its slight increase but in practice im not experienced enough
i mean,having 10-12% vers with like half the mastery and less haste would be better,its raw dmg inc
but should always sim
not really for me, vers is okay ish but thats it
ya ur stats are nice
could use more vers, especially for m+ encounters and stuff, but overall looking quite nice my guy
I dont m+ with these stats ofc
fair
decent st ye
vers prolly kinda good tho
wonder what ur stat weights lookin like
Is anyone able to tell me, what a good uptime for CT is in m+, my garrotes/ruptures are around 90% but CT is 40-50% should this be a lot higher?
I'll run it
I could tinker around swapping some haste for versa like 100 of it but thats about it, dont think I can do that with my gear rn without losing lots of crit
yep,its heavier than haste,maybe some more vers instead of haste/mastery
but the crit weight though lul
frost shards ye
u venth or necro?
The crit food is currently better for me
venth
than an expensive feast
how much crit is necessary to the dashing frost build? or no minimum, just as much crit as possible?
No minimum, just sim yourself.
TWITCH INFO PLZ

currently with 33% the rank 4 frost gems are simim better. Issue: mine are still rank 1 and not enough to lvl all to 4 
SOON
Tomorrow can make mine rank 5 
frost believer since the start or what
Most unlucky man in raid loot, had 48 raid kills with 4 pieces of gear out of which 2 dom pieces
So i sat on embers
And then i got set but saw nerf post so i sat on it 1 more week
Then buffs came
From bottom dps no set to top 3 :D
the turntables
Still at 700 crit tho so not even my final form :DDD
I wish I was getting your amount of embers... lol
I have unholy at r4 and frost at r4
By how much? That’s insane
Sadge.
Absolutely insane
Not by much, but it definitely beats it.
30 crit vs 20 primary
Fucking MAD LAD
But for sure on wrists/cloaks/bracers
We’ve turned into warlocks
It's not like Fire Mage in Ny'alotha
Scratching our necks for more mastery
Rogues dont bring much in raid, so let us at least do damage
So we have an excuse to not be benched
Cheaper for us 
If im not at my pc to change gems is there a way to sim statweights with frost set if i logged off with m+ gems (no set)
It's gonna be a major pain in the ass, but yes.
You can do a top gear sim replacing all the gems
then use the top gear sim result in the stat weights
Ok that doesnt sound like its worth the effort to not do it tonight when im on my pc :D
Def not :P
Ty tho cev :D
Gz on CE btw
If u got mythic dagger on 1st kill like hc ill fckin uninstall :D
Well, I hate to tell you this...
Nooooo
U got me there for a min


Back to the bone bois this week

what do u mean? 🙂
Hell yeah. Just switched back this evening.
Probably poorly timed as only hit 49 renown and won't have time to grind before raid tomorrow night, but it's been too long without bone spike.
Welcome to the BONE ZONE

In the end
Every sin is a bone boy
Welcome back brothers
And I’ll have to call @zinc frost a sister with that avatar
venthyr is the only way for a true rogue
😈
Bonespike snipes in dungeons tho.. sweet sweet goodness.
Bonespike on anything but single target
Oh shit, congrats Cev! What are you guys? Top 25?
So this is my first time as Horde - do I need to wait for Alliance to finish HoF for Mythic to open up? Or does it open up for Horde once 100 guilds do it?
Because I could gear a lot faster if I had more Mythic pugs to pull from
I’m not 100% sure actually - I know there’s been server pugs already on mal’ganis
I think it’s both tho
Yes, both Horde and Alliance have to finish HOF before mythic is opened for cross-realm play.
And thanks!
Yeah, I got into a Mythic Terragrue/Eye group last night. We got Eye to like 6% and people started leaving
I was really hoping for a shot at my gloves 😦
Picked up a 252 WPS and the bracers from Terragrue though, so that's good.
Since Lashing Scars isn't available to upgrade in raid, I'm considering just boosting all of my conduits a rank. I'll be able to afford a full upgrade on all of them in 3-4 more days. I really wish our conduits didn't suck, though.
what do you think for necro assas frost build after this hotfix?
Is dashing supposed to beat obedience
with unholy set
Strong but not as a strong as venth. I’m rank 4 unholy and rank 4 frost is about 400-500 dps increase.
yep normally i'm rank 4 frost venthyr
maybe i'll switch to necro
When I sim myself as necro it’s about 200 dps decrease
Necro very fun highly recommend
200-250 dps for me
maybe my ilvl
none of our conduits seem worth the cost to upgrade them, talking half a percent of dps to go from 226 to 278
Yeah even 200 isn’t big. I push keys more so it suits me better
Sanctum of Dom. have many multiple target boss fights just i think maybe necro would be good
Obv
I'm pretty sure Dashing is only the play with r4+ Frost (and 35% or higher crit).
I don't think it plays with Unholy
With r4 frost and 33% crit. A 235 dashing is 35 dps increase over my doomblade 262
But a r3 frost lose to uh. As expected
Yeah, mine was like 12 DPS so I'm just holding off to make a 262 ... I still need a 262 Zoldycks also
I went Obedience for raid to be a good catch-all
2nd 262 should be this week
Naw, I didn't do Torghast last week. I gotta wait
U skipped the eye!
Don't think the Big K wants to publicize any logs ever.
Is that normal/hc or mythic?
Gz nonetheless
Do you play any instruments? 👀
Yeah, some solid LFR logs there.
bro, i allready said it once
yellow=outlaw
outlaw=bad
sorry, i dont make the rules
Why u do dis
Make us all look bad


I play the viola and violin professionally, piano and guitar on occasion.

Mythic.
Ohh sickkkk
Idk about outlaw prolly outlaw will rise in some week with frost gems upgrade
What's that?
He played violin for old wow songs
I ain’t even looked as it ain’t my thing but does raid outlaw work with vent? 👀
Apparently it's best st
Hi, if I started playing rogue in 9.1 how do I get dashing, lfr?
JESUS CHRIST
Idk where dashing drop
@limber lion would you ever stream any of your content?
is this lad a boneboy or a falloutboy
Check your Powers tab on raid journal or google it.
Wowhead says drops from council
I don’t think his raid will let him stream raid.
):
Give the people what they want 
It's great, yeah
I would but I wasn't allowed to stream our progression because it's unnecessary distraction. My computer is also struggling a bit when streaming, not sure why.
can i get your cov/legendary etc so i can underpeform and blame the rest of my group
Yeah I understand not streaming progression. We’re all a bit thirsty to see that top tier gameplay 😋.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/rPVJ7dGYGpbGVeZ4UWRKXG
Here's my current setup and the setup I used for the later bosses.
Well 248 ilvl
Used the unholy set for the first 8 I think.
tyty
On mm ? You mean or hc?
the difference between cev and other rogues is not ilvl
i mean, thats one of the differences
Actually, no, used unholy for the first 9. Only frost on Sylvanas.
Huh?
but its not the important one
Your set up
On log you are with frost gems
On first boss alteast I looked only him
Sylvanas is the only I used frost on.
Because it was buffed when we were on Sylvanas already.
Heroic boosts, yes.
I think Cev sells with Starlight
No, with Dawn.
hi everyone! I'm new to SL rogue, what Venthyr soulbind should I use with Assassination if I want to swap between it and subtlety here and there? Is there one that is definitely better for one spec over the other?
Ohh, okay
But yeah, all the public logs on my profile are from boost runs.
I knew it was one of the 2. I took a shot, lol
Use Nadja for Assa and Theotar for Sub.
Asking cauz 12 kill on boss are like loving spamming raid hc xd
I'm nowhere near the level to sell boosts, which blows. I get why it's that high, but damn.
They're the best soulbinds* for both and allows for easy swapping, so it's a win-win
😄
I asked if you do boost cauz spamming 12 time raid without boosting is like loving the raid a lot ahah
Cev are you still sticking to venth now that you got CE or you gonna come back to them sweet sweet bone spikes? 😉😉
Sticking to Venth for now. Venthyr is just too good for frost :(
Ah right yeah no
y
Zoldyks with crit haste in legs right?
totaly understand that sir dont worry xd
Cev, what mog is that in your avatar on raidbots?
The full heroic set.
thk u sir
Crit/Mastery if you're planning to do a lot of m+.
Crit/Haste is perfectly fine though.
i hope for weapon on reset 😢
if i were to craft it just for m+ then crit mastery would be better?
Yes
Dumb question, how come Kyrian isn’t good for Assa? Are the spenders not as powerful as the other specs? Does slower CP generation make it worse? Soulbinds?
Yea venthyr isn’t really something I’m considering tbh, really tired of playing boring Cov abilities (Ele sham main). I mostly play outlaw as well
Was initially necro but the bugs were annoying, and ofc they got patched the week I switched kyrian 
Kyrian definitely a lot lower than the other covenants for sin. Necro would be a solid choice if you play outlaw, now that its fixed.
@lavish lichen Calling necro ele shaman boring 
it is 

You don’t even use the ability in AOE 
Imagine that
Feels fun to use sure
But an ability that is a dps loss at 3 targets
Is cringe
Go play sire on repeat and tell me it ain’t fun
Yea it was good on sire for sure
Shooting 4 juicy meatballs 
do ppl go dauntless duelist still on nadjia?
wondering if 3rd potency might be better at this point or even the exacting preparation
Sim has show duelist to win but ur free to sim for yourself the difference
Just got to be carefull with duelist when multiple target. The debuff stick to your first target until it dies
So if u do your first hit on 1 target. Then switch and do your cd on the 2nd one. U just wasted free damage
A good exemple would be for the nine.
yea im aware of it, can be tricky sometimes which is why i was thinking the increased well fed and flask stuff might be nice
since it doesnt affect just one target
Yeah you wanna stick to dauntless mostly for raid. Even in a fight like the nine, once the target dies it will go onto the next one.
yea but atleast for me most of the time we bl one of the angels is still up that has the dauntless on it and then my burst on the 3rd one is less
so to fix that i can delay my cds a bit maybe but idk
Who is ready for their vault!
I, for one, am very excited for my Disappointment Box
You got enough gold to buy an extra one
Or 1.000 extra vaults
Without making a dent
When is NA reset?
right now i believe
im gonna leave the discord for a while i dont wanna see any fucking 252 phials until i get mine 
dw you will get yours soon™️
Another week another dissapointment

By soon he means end of s2 😝
Affixes? 😁
Affixes: Fortified, Raging, Explosive, Tormented
ok everyone stop simming pls
pls bless me with 252 phial
explosive
next chest for sure 
Raging
Phial pls
Explosive, sweet someone else’s problem 😝
Cries in poor
Totem dude
Yeah wtf no crying here
godawful vault 
I still havent got a 252 weapon till expansion started
never lucky
Device is not that bad
I just wanted to shitpost it here because Im maining sub
is it normal to like seeing other people's vault when they're bad?
Could be Stygia
👉 👈
I knew I wasn't getting Edge/Phial, but fuck for once it would be nice to get something
Yeah, satan.
I haven't gotten a good GV since BFA
So, never? Because GV is a new thing in Shadowlands

Sick bruh
Eh, it's the same thing. lol
Lol i am already clapping if all is 80ish
cries
I was Arms in Nyalotha and got +15 Geti'ikkus back to back in my chest
That was the last time I got anything good
Now this is a sad vault.
guess I'll just take the ring
Legit if anyone needs a group to help farm weps, I’d be happy to take in another sin rogue to help funnel a weapon to.
me pls
Hey what’s a good fight to log review with someone? I have a friend whose trying to learn rogue and I want to read some of their logs I just don’t know what the best fights to look at are
Maybe gaurdian?
Guardian is pretty good
Guardian is a pretty patchwerk figut
The person I’m reviewing only has heroic parses rn so ye just heroic
^^^^ FACTS
My guild had a bunch of mages and other teleporters fucking up their movement cheese and tried telling me and the other rogue we weren’t allowed to shadowstep the boss anymore despite never having messed it up before.

lol, 2/3 of my vault drops were items I already got from the vault. The third, a 252 cloak, is a downgrade 😕
It puts you in the same spot
When we told him there was no way we weren’t shadowstepping he told us one mess up is getting us sat
Sounds good 

The more I think about our prog the more I think I need a new guild

Mess up shadowstep once your OUTTA HERE BUCKO
you ss to ally or can you ss to boss and skip beam?
Ss to the boss
Puts you in the exact same spot every time
It’s super duper ez once you learn where the spot is
step on pull and you'll find the spot
yeah what toadie said it puts you to the front left of the boss
just walk with the beam til youre getting near the chains and step
if you didnt want to check at the start
im gonna try it in this normal run rn
gonna see if i can get edge kekw
will not happen
I have successfully looted one thing to myself this raid tier, all other gear has been secondhand
Not being able to check vault for 7 hours 
Any more US vaults in the chat? It gives me some hope 
Phial first week and i'm paying for it since, legit garbage
All I want for Xmas....is a sylvanas dagger
Nothing worse.
I wound up grabbing the 239 ring
Slap a shiny socket on it and hey presto
Yeah, I'm still a week or so away from sockets
Any1 else not stepped foot in korthia since hitting t6? 🤣
I'm behind because I haven't gone into Korthia
^
i am less than halfway to t5
I'm about 4k into T5.
i cant get io from korthia
I'm more of a "get it done then be lazy" type.
still doing a casual 15 minute stroll through korthia every day
need some conduits eventually
Been sitting in keys all week
how can you be t6 already ? have you been farming 100 bosses a day or so ?
People have been T6 for like a week and a half
this week doesnt look so bad
Was t6 like a week ago and I missed 3-4 days I think. Some guildies had a good 5-6 days before me
Same.
ok then im doing it wrong :/
I have like 2 days to T6 but im the furthest progressed person in my guild who doesnt work from home
The "aim" is 2k research daily, from nests/shrooms/rares/chests etc;
Need to finish on shaman but I hate that I need Death’s advance rep for gems smfh
So you might not be doing it wrong lol
This feels like a good push week
2k research daily seems a little high, or maybe its just natural variance but I swear after clearing all rares, chests, rift chests, etc. I've come away with like 1500-1600 research sometimes and well over 2k others
i am happy for the rogues with edge but i dont like them at the same time
So its apparently a build in soft cap of around 2k or so. If you get the checklist WA, you just grind it out until close to that.
Some days i'm like 1800 ish and was struggling and called it a day. Other days you hit 2k pretty quickly. Titanforging rep eh
some guys in my guild really grinded hard for a couple weeks and they were reliably 1250 rep/2500 artifacts daily
Korthia was a mistake
maw was better
15 minute done for the day
instead of sitting and camping a rare that doesnt spawn and refreshing group finder
Legit I don't mind the quests, shrooms, nests etc; but having to use the LFG tool to get rares each day was tragic. Was it needed? No, not at all but to get it as quick as possible to t6, it was
Ah gotcha you mean thats like the limit if you were capping
Yeye, I mean if you were just casually doing quests and shit you could probably cruise to 1k-1.2k with no rare camping.
I like Korthia just keep in mind the people grinding it who are rank 6 already are a small subset of individuals and not even most cutting edge raiders have it yet. It's a marathon and if you're just playing instead of focusing on clearing every single node and rare it's a pretty fluid zone
Yeah I work 9 hours and commute 2 so I normally try to bang it out asap lol
Is there a good place to find sims/guides for sin? Icy veins/wowhead look like they don't even really have the dashing/frost build in their guides, we had some info in the pins here but it's gone now
I mean I enjoy the zone itself but totally burnt out from min maxing, if I was just chilling it would be fine but my OCD wouldn't allow for the slower grind.
Its a fine line to walk, on one hand there are people that want to grind and finish it asap and others dont want to be forced to grind out x amount every day which is why there is diminishing returns after a bit but it wont make everyone happy
Yeah for sure, i'll just do the weekly on wednesdays to top up research now, kinda like what the maw was for me in the end.
I'd rather do alt keys and the likes in my raid downtime.
so, for the Dashing scoundrel + frost shards, do we have a crit cap? or just stack it as much as we can?
Dashing/Frost build is essentially BIS but is fairly reliant on high crit for it to really pull ahead.
From what i've seen, its "to the moon" but I could be wrong @wide ridge
nah just reliant on being venthyr
I've just been simming continuous crit improvements and the sims keep rising.
well yeah the build makes crit high value, the reason it becomes BIS easily with venthyr is venthyr has big crit traits
so I imagine nerzhul's necklace is better than KT's one
even tho it does not have haste
has a fuckton of crit
equal when i simmed them, actually
hm
It still sims higher for me even necro, venth is just the better cov for it.
crit gets diminishing returns at 1k
does edge of night drop when you go outlaw spec for vault?
yea I think
Think it'll come down to personal sims. My hc KT neck vs Nerzhul Mythic neck (with sockets) was a huge swing in favor for the latter
252 arachnid ring tho..
tbh I'm probably taking Outlaw wep
No, it’s a dagger
Traitor
You dont need to be venthyr
ring is rather chunky
No, daggers only drop in Sub/Sin and anything non-dagger only drops in Outlaw
Dashing scoundrel build for sin isnt bad
since all rogues would like it with all builds
but vanilla sin is really slow imo
It has the be on that spec’s loot table
Lots of yellow names in this channel, did I miss the memo? 😝
Idk
Simmed a 246 edge of night against my 246 tanglewood dagger and the edge only simmed 11 dps higher. Is that normal?
Usually they also go nuts on each other in this channel
Mega ring
I'm jelly
That's the biggest upgrade I can get outside of mythic Edge.
ok so let's switch chars
nope :)
Actually need to farm the ring myself, valor and socket ahoy.
I got a 246 bloodoath with socket and 246 arachnid. Set for rings here
mfw my outlaw sim 300 dps higher than sin sim despite exclusively gearing for sin 
if I take wep I get 252 weps for all specs bc double 252 daggers already
but ring is
sick
Imagine seeing any form of weps from raid/vault 😦
I do suppose I win there but yeh nothing from raid so far feels odd.
Wep wise haha sorry
2 rogues in raid, no heroic sylvanas or mythic from nerzhul, nada
Ah well, all in good time I guess (queues last week before 9.2)
I'll get my phial last week before 9.2 guaranteed
I won't lie, pre reset I was like that's me, last week of content. And got it first reset so who knows, RNJesus
I mained DK last tier and geared this guy to 226 before 9.1 and never saw phial or iqd in box
I got my phial 3 weeks before the patch lol
Oddly my very first vaults on rogue in 9.0.5/9.1 was phial. Meanwhile my main throughout 9.0 was DK and never got an IQD
suffering
30 runs mist, still no dagger 😄
Currently trying too farm a scale on my alt and all I get is IQD/Crystal, like some sort of sick joke
20+ pf still no phial. I think i've seen one dropped to some guy.
are there still any huge bugs that exist with necro or can I switch covs back to necro from venthyr?
I think necro is fixed now iirc
I think there are still issues with the death spike leggo but not sure if that’s still bugged or not
Still no Phial here either 
Next time for sure 
don't get my hopes up like this
Took 25 runs. Run 26, 27, and 28 all dropped phial for me

That's so dumb
just add a valor shop
It’s always the way, same thing happened with weapons for me. I actually had to vendor 2 x 233 weapons 😬.. I felt the pain of all you rogues not getting drops
I can feel u, bought mine from a guy for 50k in pf, the run after got one
just loot it in vault week 1 just like me


wait, actually week 2, week 1 was 252 weapon 

sorry pal 

My first two chests were so horrible that I got a 239 item from hc
Thoughts on ocular gland vs fusion amp for frost build? I've already ran sims. Jw opinion
Man, I was really hoping to hit like 9200 in sims this week. Now I gotta pray for m+ drops 😦
Winds cranks
wish i had frost bonus lmao
I need to make dashing
Haven’t tried that
just only had frost gems
Still do lmao
I want a 262 dashing scoundrel as well.
Oh well, that's not happening until next week.
GOT MY EDGE
Grats :)
gratz!!
NORMAL BUT ILL TAKE IT
Yep same.
Yeah the soul cinders grind is a slow one..
Imagine getting weapons and trinkets from vault
i’m stuck getting pants, boots and shoulders
what's the best opener for The Nine?
tfw you finally get a heroic dagger from the vault but its the shitty one from remnant
Imo you wait to put bleeds up on the other boss until after the MA window with vanish
thank god i did 10 last week
GZ
but all that wasted valor on my 246 one... pepehands
If you lust on pull, you just do the single target opener on one target and apply garrote to the second target whenever it comes off cooldown.
Apply a rupture to the second target after Shiv is over
Oof
so u try to keep rupture on both target the whole time?
you should have garrote and rupture and deadly poison up on both targets the whole time
apart from while doing the opener
Yes
just got salvaged fusion amp out of box. do i just pair it with cds when using it?
doomblade or obedience for raiding
depends on the boss
Sim it. I just used Doomblade for the entire progression from start to finish.,
obedience is nice on KT
I usually use mine in the middle of flag so its up for the whole haste buff
ah im necro
then just use it on CD
cool
is anyone else having theotar and nadjia so close they are basically interchangeable on sims
they r close
