YES!

Who else feels like a winner?

@gusty mirage

#

what about me

#

currently pepeblushing

spice spire
#

I carry lowers and get hard carried higher by some actual cracked group ones our guild

gusty mirage
kind talon
spice spire
#

Lowers being 15s

zinc frost
#

Can’t be worse then the fury warrior my guild does 15 carries for that does 3.5k overall in halls

spice spire
#

Had a boomie deal 3.1 overall in a 13 sanguine and just oxiPAIN

gusty mirage
#

Was he afk?

low oar
#

What's the key to sin AOE? Is it just keeping low CP ruptures up on everything? I can't seem to break like 7.5k overall on some dungeons

gusty mirage
#

He can spread moonfire and Sunfire and do that

low oar
#

My single target is insane but my AoE is lacking

kind talon
#

my guy should get banned

zinc frost
#

They aren’t meant to be carries hahaha.

alpine latch
#

I just need KSM and to get my dagger and Phial from PF to boost them both to 246.

gusty mirage
low oar
#

Yeah

#

I keep that up too

gusty mirage
#

Also stack as much crit as possible

kind talon
#

^^

#

crit is OPOP

low oar
#

It just seems like even if I do everything right my AoE DPS is very underwhelming

gusty mirage
#

Because 1-2cp fan of knives just kills your soul

spice spire
limber lion
#

It's not really rocket science.

#

You just press garrote on cooldown, keep CT/SnD up and Rupture everything.

#

That's it.

jolly comet
#

Echoing Blades 😭

low oar
#

I'm at like 28% crit 32% haste unbuffed

limber lion
#

That's fine

gusty mirage
#

Also assa damage isn’t as front loaded as other classes. So if you have blasters in your group it’ll hard to keep up with them if trash dies quick

low oar
#

Just tired of seeing mages and boomkins at like 9k overall while I'm at like 7.5k-8k

limber lion
#

If you do consistent 10k+ dps in aoe packs, you're solid.

#

You don't need to get to 20k

zinc frost
#

At least our damage is pretty consistent tho, which I love

limber lion
#

because that will not happen for sin.

low oar
#

Even though I'm doing 7.5k single target lmao

limber lion
#

Our damage is consistent

#

It's 10k in every pack

jolly comet
#

are yall using zoldyk this week?

limber lion
#

Not 30k in one and then 4k for the next 2

low oar
#

Okay that makes sense

gusty mirage
#

Rogue damage is literally “slow and steady wins the race”

limber lion
alpine latch
gusty mirage
#

There will be pulls you get absolutely leveled on meters

alpine latch
#

I'm considering making r6 Zoldyck beore r6 Dashing

limber lion
#

Like I'm 245 ilvl with my mythic set

gusty mirage
#

But you’ll just be chugging along

bleak sun
#

Using obedience every dg

limber lion
#

And my 222 ilvl demon hunter friends

#

were topping me on aoe packs

#

20+ ilvl less and still doing more than me on some packs

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

But in overall I did 4k more than them

low oar
#

I use obedience. Having flagellation every pull is nice

jolly comet
#

yea ive been using obe this season guess ill have to try zol out again

limber lion
#

That's just how the spec works.

bleak sun
#

Maximum brain is getting ton of flag stacks then stand in aoe to pursue dps

zinc frost
#

Getting beaten by ashen hpals on the first pull too 😝

#

But that’s okay

spice spire
#

Did a 19 DoS on Tuesday mistimed because I inted hard and died 3-4 times. Anyway, on ardenweald that was done entirely in three pulls. I’d max at 22k but evened out at about 14-17

Hey guys! at gearscore 231 my unhloy rank 3 set is 100dps ahead of rank 3 frost set. 21%haste 26% crit

Am i supposed to stack crit for frost set? when does frost gets ahead of unholy?

zinc frost
#

Yeah more crit will help.

rancid pier
#

Believe you need scoundrel legendary with frost set too

zinc frost
#

You can still run it without dashing.

#

Doomblade for me sims decently with frost

Your MA will crit more and you have energy to spend

does it matter if you have Celestial Guidance/Sinful Revelation on main-hand/off-hand? Like does it matter which goes on which

It shouldn't, no.

If it does, it's insanely minimal

ugh - that should be easy but I don't have the game in front of me so I can't help there.. Sorry dude

fallow glacier
dark token
#

Seems like a waste to not have dots on the 2nd target for 30s...

true mesa
#

doomblade or dashing for mythic sylv?

dark token
#

What

fallow glacier
#

Why would it be? You’re throwing all your damage onto your vendetta target

#

With lust you won’t need the energy

#

And without it the garrote should keep you going

dark token
#

Adding an additional rupture and garrote is more dmg than +20% on your current rupture and garrote

fallow glacier
#

Plus you know, the envenoms you’re losing?

dark token
#

You lose one envenom

fallow glacier
#

Ok, you’re also delaying your vendetta unnecessarily

#

Look at any log on the nine

dark token
#

Checking the sim, with lust, after vanish MA window you garrote and rupture 2nd target

dark token
#

On the nine specifically you don't lust on pull so that's not the case

limber lion
#

You rupture the secondary target after your Shiv ends

dark token
#

Ye

limber lion
#

Not after the MA window.

#

That still means that you'll be getting your rupture up when Vendetta has like 8 seconds remaining

dark token
#

Delaying vendetta by a couple seconds isn't a problem if you don't lose a usage, fyi

limber lion
#

Delaying Vendetta also delays Vanish/Shiv/Flag

dark token
#

looks like its garrote during shiv window, rupture after shiv window

limber lion
#

So you need to keep that all in mind.

limber lion
#

You said it uses Rupture after the MA window

#

Which is incorrect.

dark token
#

Well technically after shiv window is also after MA window 😅

#

But yes I see your point

limber lion
#

No it's not?

dark token
#

It's a bit later than I thought

limber lion
#

Shiv window is 9s

#

MA window is the first 3s of Shiv

#

So you still hold off using Rupture for 6s

#

Definitely not the same thing

dark token
#

this is also the top Nine log btw

royal lantern
#

@limber lion whats the bot command for deathly shadows again

limber lion
dark token
#

this is the top venthyr nine log

limber lion
dark token
#

yeah

limber lion
#

It's literally like 20dps if that

#

They would be r1

#

Even if they did an awful opener

#

They would be r1 with a correct opener

#

And r1 with a scuffed opener

#

Like it doesn't matter

dark token
#

i agree in general openers don't matter much , however i do think it is more slightly dps to bleed both targets on pull if lust isnt used, before using the vendetta/flag/shiv/vanish etc.

#

5s delay on vendetta/flag/shiv wont cost you a usage in 99% of cases unless it doesn't line up with mechanics properly that occur at minute intervals

#

I suspect APL does not have a prioritization for bleeds on multiple targets over getting things off CD if you do not lose a usage

limber lion
#

Feel free to use advanced sims and sim it yourself then.

#

Because trust me, it has been done dozens of times.

royal lantern
#

thy mate

limber lion
#

You can pull up the apl and look what it does

crude jetty
#

@limber lion - Thanks for the input. So if it's not the opener, what should I focus on addressing to up my dps on the nine?

#assassination message

dark token
#

opener optimization in APL is kinda a messy game and not really worth

#

vendetta just checks if rupture/garotte are ticking

#

cd list is higher in priority than action list which contains rupture condition

#

so it doesnt happen

limber lion
#

because it still uses garrote during shiv

#

?

dark token
#

cd list contains actual cd usage conditions, not what happens after

#

it cycles through cd list for 7 seconds until all conditions are met and CDs are applied then goes to finisher/dot list

#

since CD list is listed as higher priority

polar matrix
#

frozen

#

on naz do u apply rupture and garrote to orbs that arnt active?

dark token
#

so optimizing a condition that only occurs at the start of the fight isnt worth

winged basin
#

Boys and Girls I am actively malding

dark token
#

if im not cooldowning

limber lion
limber lion
#

Your arguing about using Rupture during cooldowns

#

But now you're saying that you won't do it on Remnant

dark token
#

sorry let me rephrase

royal lantern
dark token
#

i garrote/rupture them when inactive, unless i am mid cooldown

royal lantern
#

cus like, rupture feels like a big waste

dark token
#

if they are active, i garrote/rupture regardless of cooldowns

slow marsh
royal lantern
#

they get vurnable and take 1-2 ticks rupture dmg, and then they die

#

dunno

dark token
#

my argument only applied in the scenario where the garrote/rupture actually does dmg

royal lantern
#

doesnt seem worth it imo

polar matrix
#

do u get energy regen from inactive orbs?

limber lion
#

What's the reasoning for that?

winged basin
crude jetty
royal lantern
#

allright

limber lion
royal lantern
#

it depeens on your guild

dark token
slow marsh
#

killing her will have her loot table in gvault which is bigger for raid as a whole than whatever she drops in raid

dark token
#

just extra dmg

limber lion
royal lantern
#

like, IF you dont need more dmg on orbs, why attack them at all

limber lion
#

Why would you use it when they're open

#

But not before it

#

If you rupture it when it's open, it's literally wasted immediately

slow marsh
#

especially for rogues who take heroic sylv dagger over any non sylv mythic dagger

limber lion
#

What's your parse on Remnant?

winged basin
#

Well he is telling me mythic Soulrender loot is more valuable to raid then heroic sylvanas, and that just does sit right

limber lion
#

You're literally wasting garrote/rupture by using them when they're active

radiant dirge
#

Is 38% crit high enough to start running dashing frost?

winged basin
#

I just don’t think it’s true

dark token
limber lion
royal lantern
#

on MH ilvl is still king

slow marsh
#

Wait are people not dotting orbs before they are debuffed? kek

dark token
#

rank 17 now just checked

royal lantern
#

doesnt matter if Sylv dagger or not

limber lion
slow marsh
limber lion
#

Especially on mythic, you need to dot the orbs way before they are active

#

It's the same concept as for Council

winged basin
#

I bet koikuba dots the balls before hand too..

limber lion
#

On mythic they die in 2 seconds

slow marsh
#

why would you voluntarily miss out on the extra energy anyways

dark token
#

yes that is what i do, i think my sentences got split up and so it didnt make sense lol

winged basin
#

I do because the energy regeneration is pure value

slow marsh
#

regardless of the extra dmg after debuff

limber lion
#

You said

#

"I don't rup/garrote them during cooldowns, but if they're active I do"

#

If you gar/rup them when they're active, that's literally wasted completely

dark token
#
  1. as soon as orbs go up, i garrote/rupture at least one for extra energy but not if i am currently vendettaing the boss
polar matrix
#

do u get energy from inactive orbs?

dark token
#

sometimes i did 2

#

yes

polar matrix
#

reall?

limber lion
#

Yes

polar matrix
#

so is it work dotting 2 orbs and boss for just one orb

dark token
#

also as cev mentioned they died quick so its important to get the dots up before people have a chance to yolo them

limber lion
#

As long as you have bleeds and poisons on em

dark token
#

but if an orb is active, i will also garrote it

#

if i didnt have an existing dot

limber lion
#

You don't dot them up for damage, you dot them up for energy

#

Which you then funnel on the boss

hidden bloom
#

Could someone please look at my logs and say why my damage is low to my ilv?

limber lion
#

Exactly same concept as on Council

polar matrix
#

i didnt think it did

#

so i didnt touch them

#

a single time .....

#

yikes

limber lion
#

It's not a giga gain

#

Don't worry

#

It's very minmaxy

polar matrix
#

i mean energy wud be huge no?

limber lion
#

It's not as huge as you'd think

dark token
#

so i guess the confusion came when i mentioned orbs being active, i rarely dot them if they are active cause they are usually all predotted by me

#

only tossing a garrote on one if its close

limber lion
#

Which is just incorrect completely.

#

But yeh, no worries.

polar matrix
#

so it the opposite

limber lion
#

These are the moments where I wish I had public logs.

dark token
#

screenshot for curiosity

polar matrix
#

dnt dot active cos not worth it

i have a 99 on heroic terragrue can i argue with you about something cev

dark token
#

i agree i tend to over emphasize things in general

polar matrix
#

so cevarion orbs arnt huge dps gain?

#

wonder what going wrong for me

limber lion
#

They are definitely a gain, but not a massive one, no.

spice spire

just put 3 point rup on them unless u gotta run too far from the boss

make sure they got deadly ticking too

im so sad i looted my box as outlaw and got a 252 axe instead, maybe it woulda been 252 dagger

i didn't know about the stolen anima containers and i didn't realize how strongk rare farming actually is

yeah dailies are trash

I’ve just been doing like

#

4 rift caches

slow marsh
kind talon
#

And any rares / mushrooms I can do

limber lion
#

For Assassination we generally want 252 main hand and 246 off hand

#

Unless of course you can get the 259 Sylv dagger main hand

plain thistle
#

rare farming, spawn timer and rotation (20min), teleporter cd (2hours) etc etc

kind talon
#

I see

dark token
#

i often have to camp out the last 2-3 rares i need for 30 mins too

slow marsh
#

get the korthia WA and handynotes, go to handynotes and turn on all the spawn locations for everything. then go from rare to rare and just tag them, the frags will get sent to your mailbox

dark token
#

like zelnithop, reliwik, dom protector, verayn

#

its annoying

slow marsh
#

prio the long respawn rares like he said

#

and pick up the shorroms and nests and chests and do dailies in between rare spawns

eternal turtle
#

I have a question, why does the 2 target sim envenom twice (after the vanish MA) until it applies rupture on the 2nd target instead of just doing it instantly?

limber lion
#

It applies the second rupture after the Shiv drops from the main target.

eternal turtle
#

aha makes sense

#

thanks

Is dashing really required for frost shards?

hmm

Don't forget to do the rift. I almost always get 1-2 purple things out of there

BS/DS can be fine on something like Painsmith

with Dashing Scoundrel

#

I did nerzhul yesterday with blindside and did 9.6

#

but was not sure

#

and was thinking about painsmith, but ended playing with vigor

plain thistle
kind turtle
#

frost shards bonus has been underwhelming for me so far. running doomblade still though, and maybe i dont have the crit for it yet

dark token
#

bs/ds feels ok on single target fights if there is no downtime to have to reapply snd/rupture/garrote

radiant dirge
#

I just feel so energy starved if I don’t play vigor 😑

dark token
#

so guardian, terrague, maybe remnant (debatable due to orb cleave)

#

are the only fights i would personally use it on

#

painsmith i tried it during our prog and didnt like how everything fell off in intermissions

#

you have to repeat the energy starved opener with no MA window like 3x

zinc frost
odd heath
#

Terragrue, Guardian and nerzhul for bs/ds for me

eternal turtle
#

@limber lion and the random mutilate it does on 2nd target is just to keep up deadly poison?

cerulean nest
#

so im 242ilvl, have the gear to get past 45% crit if I want to. but right now dashing +frost still sims slightly lower than unholy. I feel like I'm just not simming correctly though

zinc frost
#

What rank sets? Even rank 3 frost sims lower than rank 4 UH for me

cerulean nest
#

thats where im at ^

#

so it really needs to be rank 4 to start pulling way ahead?

limber lion
cerulean nest
#

by how much?

#

initially

zinc frost
#

Yeah i must be tired but I meant that r3 frost sims HIGHER for me than rank 4 unholy

cerulean nest
#

oh no. my r4 unholy beats out r3 frost at the moment

#

not by a lot at all, but still

plain thistle
#

once I got a lot of crit even rank3 frost was better than rank4 unholy

#

and now with rank4 frost I sim something like 600 dps more with frost

cerulean nest
#

yeah im not sure why mine isnt

edgy ginkgo
plain thistle
#

unholy r4 is 550 or something dps behind

hollow river
cerulean nest
#

maybe its an ilvl thing for me? ive seen that mentioned by Whispyr a few times

cerulean nest
#

i have hella crit

#

i can get to 50%

hollow river
#

Not enough

cerulean nest
#

lol

plain thistle
#

once I got to 40-41-42 crit frost was just better

winged basin
hollow river
#

My frost was ahead at 232 ilvl and only 35% crit

winged basin
#

We raid 3 days a week 9:30 - 12 and we are 9/10heroic 3/10 m

cerulean nest
#

yeah i just simmed and at my current ilvl r4 frost beats out unholy r4 finally

winged basin
#

My frost was also mega ahead and I’m 33% crit

zinc frost
#

What’s the difference? Should be decent

cerulean nest
#

like 250

hollow river
cerulean nest
#

it must be an ilvl thing honestly

hollow river
zinc frost
winged basin
#

If sylvanas takes 6 days of raid then I’m gquitting

#

2 weeks on heroic Sylv with a goal of CE this tier?

zinc frost
#

Yeah CE ain’t happening for your guild at this rate

hollow river
#

My guild has taken 3 raid fights to get to p3

#

Nights

hollow river
#

I already quit this guild once

cerulean nest
#

thats with the r4 frost that I havent yet upgraded to ^

hollow river
#

Sick of guild hopping

winged basin
#

I just need to stop saying I’m gonna apply to other guilds and do it.

hollow river
#

Same

cerulean nest
#

I did that, got accepted into a top 100 US guild, and then chickened out lmao

#

maybe down the line

#

mostly just didnt want to be sat for fights, which seemed likely to happen

#

@zinc frost any ideas?

zinc frost
cerulean nest
#

I guess so. after next week's raid should have enough + enough cinders to make dashing.

#

such is life

edgy ginkgo
#

should i hardcap crit at 40% or the more the better?

cerulean nest
#

sim it daddi

edgy ginkgo
#

ok papi

steady glen

Anyone know how to get good parses on H Sylv?

stab stab, dont die

visual prairie
#

same strat for every fight. raids so predictable

limber lion
#

Who are you asking

steady glen
#

aight ill try harder i guess

limber lion
#

Ah right, fleep

steady glen
#

thanks

limber lion
low oar
limber lion
#

@steady glen I'd recommend comparing your P1, P2 and P3 damages to the top logs.

#

To see where you can improve the most.

low oar
#

Cooldown management is important too

#

You want to have everything up for the last platform in p3

limber lion
#

Well

#

Not true

steady glen
#

I have been trying to maximise it but having problems keeping up in p2

limber lion
#

Generally you lust the third platform now, so you want to have everything up for that.

steady glen
#

my raid does p3 lust

low oar
#

You probably won't keep up in p2 it's a lot of aoe

cerulean nest
low oar
#

Burst aoe classes will out DPS you every time in p2

cerulean nest
#

at current gear

limber lion
#

I did just fine on p2 personally.

#

Arcane and boomie at the top, as you'd expect.,

#

But not by much

steady glen
#

do you run crimson?

cerulean nest
#

just thought the frost/unh difference would be more than this

limber lion
#

No.

limber lion
slow marsh
#

There's 2 ST burn phases in p2

limber lion
#

A lot of crit, Dashing Scoundrel etc.

low oar
#

If you're running crimson on sylv just for parse

cerulean nest
limber lion
low oar
#

That's what I'm saying

fallen arch
steady glen
#

yeah i dont think CT is worth it just checking

low oar
#

You shouldn't ever run it just for parse

#

Only thing that actually matters is boss damage

limber lion
#

P3 is the longest part of the fight and it's single target.

steady glen
#

maybe once i get dashing ill try again

limber lion
#

P1 is pretty much single target as well

#

If you run Dashing Scoundrel, it's super bad

clever kindle
limber lion
#

because CT is even worse with Dashing

fallen arch
#

Hm ye didn’t look at it that way

#

Right

steady glen
#

Thanks @limber lion appreciate the tips

fallen arch
#

Havent got frost high enough yet to try dashing out

cerulean nest
limber lion
steady glen
#

Yeah i think the hardest part of the fight for us is probably 5th platform

cerulean nest
#

still 241 ilvl though

steady glen
#

p3 has nth much for melees to do other than to tunnel boss

low oar
#

43? Damn what's your haste

limber lion
clever kindle
#

Most wipes are going to happen in transition theres not much you can die to in p3

limber lion
#

Compared to Frost/Dashing

cerulean nest
#

i get -400

#

i guess its fine, still gonna go for it

low oar
#

Are you guys stacking crit first or haste first

steady glen
#

crit

clever kindle
#

if youre running frost, crit becomes the priority

low oar
#

Just trying to figure out in general what I should hard focus. I thought it was haste>crit

clever kindle
#

It is but priorities change when you get a set like Frost

#

which is based off many small crits

fallen arch
#

It is if you’re unholy doomblade necro gaming

low oar
#

Won't it gimp you in m+ though

fallen arch
#

Crit?

low oar
#

Prioritizing crit for frost set

fallen arch
#

Crit is the single best thing for m+ for us

clever kindle
#

Personally I dont play sin in m+

#

But frost is bis for outlaw as well

#

which also prefers crit for aoe

visual prairie
#

and sub prefers crit for aoe

steady glen
#

well if u are pushing high keys sin wouldnt be too good since u wont have enough vers i think

#

might be wrong

balmy condor
visual prairie
#

you get a crit, you get a crit, all specs get an aoe crit

fallen arch
balmy condor
#

You guys on mobile?

clever kindle
#

vers is survivability in high keys

#

there is unavoidable damage

#

At some breakpoints you can just straight up die to that unavoidable damage so vers is a preferred stat in some cases

balmy condor
zinc frost
balmy condor
low oar
#

I only have one set of gear (haste/crit) so swapping to outlaw for m+ is a no go

steady glen
#

if youre only doing 15s then sin is fine

#

crit frost is fine too

#

no big deal

low oar
#

I have no plans to break 20

visual prairie
#

clever kindle
#

Youll get plenty of gear as the patch goes on

balmy condor
low oar
#

ATM I just farm 15-17s for vault lol

#

In a few month when I have a vers/crit set I can try outlaw

balmy condor
#

Then you could probably be full vers mast

slow marsh
#

15-17 literally doesn't matter wtf you do

low oar
#

Currently sitting at like 32/27 haste/crit

#

I can have 30/30 if I swap enchants to crit

balmy condor
#

You’re really thinking about this too much man

fallen arch
#

Swap

low oar
ornate raptor
#

Sim yourself

#

😂

low oar
#

I hate it 😂

slow marsh
#

If you had a full set of 252 gear then sure you could mess with secondary stats but you don't so it doesn't matter

balmy condor
#

I play both sin and sub

fallen arch
#

It’s faster

balmy condor
#

And literally all I do

zinc frost
fallen arch
#

To sim

low oar
#

All day at work I basically just think about how to min/max my sin aoe

balmy condor
#

Is I sim droptimizer, sim my vault, and then crit enchant/gem everything

balmy condor
#

That’s pretty much it

slow marsh
#

crit mastery done

fallen arch
#

And replace a bunch of haste with mastery

balmy condor
#

I know I have 41% crit

#

Just because Someone pointed it out on stream

#

That’s literally the only reason I know

#

I don’t look at my stats literally ever

fallen arch
#

Ok so

zinc frost
#

Should stack intellect to make big brain plays

balmy condor
#

Like just top gear, droptimizer, you’re mad chilling

fallen arch
#

Why does dslice tell me in stat weights that I need more haste?

#

That’s super weird to me

#

Or at least that haste has the highest stat weight for dslice

slow marsh
#

using stat weights D=

fallen arch
#

I was curious

low oar
#

I think it bases stat weights on spec

balmy condor
low oar
#

And haste has a higher stat weight

balmy condor
#

Lord help me im not strong enough

#

Should petition raidbots to just remove stat weights

#

I can’t handle this

slow marsh
#

yep

cerulean nest
fallen arch
balmy condor
#

Cause stat weights are kinda doggers my man

#

Haste might still be fine

#

But like

#

Just don’t use stat weights

fallen arch
#

Imma keep using it

balmy condor
#

It’s that easy, just don’t

low oar
#

It's good on tyrannical when you have long ST fights

balmy condor
#

Resist the urge

alpine garden
#

Speaking of doggers, why can't dom shards just use a rank system like mythic items 😦

low oar
#

But on fortified you have so many bleeds up you don't need haste

fallen arch
balmy condor
#

Because you’re applying a lot of dots and dots do more damage with haste

fallen arch
#

Wicked

#

Imma stack haste for dungeons

balmy condor
#

I will find you

fallen arch
#

Uh oh

#

I will stop using it then

balmy condor
#

And give you a fat fucking smoocher right on your god damn lips

#

Fucking cutie

#

Smh

#

No homo tho

#

Stat weights are still terrible though

fallen arch
balmy condor
#

Forget they exist

#

Erase them from your cranium

Idk why I cant find whispyr emoji

balmy condor

They serve no purpose

balmy condor
dark token
balmy condor
dark token
#

Just to compare at max gear what specs share stats the most

fallen arch
#

Why

#

I want it

balmy condor
#

That feels really niche of a question to need answered

#

But those plots do the job

dark token
#

For example if I play sin/sub I want to prioritize crit by a mile and then haste over vers because sub uses haste more sin uses vers

slow marsh
balmy condor
dark token
#

I mean I do

#

This mostly helps for targeting raid pieces

#

Like I don't wanna be like " yeah I want this wrist for sin and the other wrist for sub"

#

Realistically you get 1, until farm

fallen arch
#

Just define main and off spec

balmy condor
#

But wouldn’t droptimizer tell you the gains

#

I feel like you’re just stumbling through the steps of thinking about what stats on what pieces

#

When you could just droptimizer

#

And be like “oh this ring is good for both, sick”

dark token
#

I mean I do that too lol

balmy condor
#

Well then wtf

#

What’s the point

toxic quail
#

stat weights aint even cute

balmy condor
toxic quail
#

hahahah trueeee

dark token
#

Just easier for me personally to reason about it and tell my RL ok crit >>>>> haste >= vers on a piece that drops rather than involve offspec dps percentage

#

I guess

toxic quail
#

gimme 85% haste again so i can exsang shit

dark token
#

I do both for my personal usage anyway

#

Mostly cause I'm a sim addict

balmy condor
#

I write the gains for both in my note, something drops I’m like “65 for sub, 35 for sin”

dark token
#

Yeah I guess I could do that

balmy condor
#

But my raid lead really pushes us on notes

#

So it kinda works when everyone’s doing it

#

If you’re the only one putting a note

#

Kinda worthless cause there’s nothing to compare to

#

But then you don’t need the granularity anyway

regal cape
#

My favorite notes people put are "usable garbage" needing with note "idk maybe I'll use it, higher ilv" or someone just putting a :)

balmy condor
#

Had one guy just go “oh yeah idk I might use it, stats look okay”

mortal umbra
#

arn't zoldyck better for raiding? since when i sim zoldyck and doomblade it sim doomblade higher. by 196 dps

balmy condor
#

definitely not

limber lion
#

Don't use it

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

zoldyck is awful

#

you use it in aoe like m+ and that's it

the bolstering anima power is triggered by orbs. is that what that meant?

i’m sure it’s not intended, knowing blizz, something that would prevent you from choosing the same 4 powers every dungeon during one week of the rotation is too crazy of a concept

#

Hi i Have a m+ question how many ruptures do i want out on pulls before i crimson spam

balmy condor
#

infinite

#

you never spam CT

sharp magnet
#

so get ruptures on everything first?

balmy condor
#

yes

sharp magnet
#

then crimson fill

balmy condor
#

no

#

if crimson is already up, you would envenom

sharp magnet
#

hmm okay so the instant damage isnt worth

balmy condor
#

correct

#

you never spam CT

visual prairie
#

i always thought getting CT ticking was first prio after opening garrotes. then ruptures?

#

or is that what your'e saying

balmy condor
#

depends on target count and what talents you're running

#

you CT on 2 once you have 2 bleeds up

sharp magnet
#

okay cool so in theory 3 ad pack , garrote all 3, fans, rupture fans rupture fans rupture, fans, CT, envenom

balmy condor
#

we mut on 3

#

but yeh pretty much

sharp magnet
#

on < 2 we mut?

#

<=2

balmy condor
#

you'd keep ct, garrote and rupture on all 3, and dump with envenom

#

on <=3

Decanter of endless howling any good? or should we always take trinket with mainstat on it?

That sort of depends on your other trinkets honestly

alpine latch

It's top 10 in terms of cap, but it's more than likely not something you'd want to use unless you had no better trinnkets

for me its good, cause i need the crit

It always comes down to sim it - but in general those are the two best trinkets. IQD is only good for the Dashing/Frost combo that I'm aware of

Is obedience still a thing in raid? Or dashing.

wintry mica

is it just luck to get phial to apply 2 stacks at once or does it only happen if it procs on a mut hit or something?

On Mythic Painsmith is FoK->Envenom the balls in p2 and p3 worth? Or just strictly smash boss?

I think it depends on if your group needs the extra ball damage

if youre progging you do the swap spec mechanic

yea sack is still pretty good

Just turbo mode

wintry mica

does the 5 second ICD on phial just run continuously, meaning if you pull at the right time itll almost instantly apply two stacks, or is there something else making it stack faster occasionally?

also use quick decisions conduit
