tbh, 9.0.5 changes were also pretty good
And proper timewalking
Like switching around covenants
Which is massive for a couple of classes
well yeah of course I like being able to play every covenant whenever I want
given I already have three of them at 60+
true
I really want to see what they do to make legion timewalking M+ work
I think every fucking dungeon in the game should be available for m+
All the way down to Deadmines
I mean the loot we get, but also how they tune the dungeons for us to be able to do them even after aoe capping most specs
Imagine they bring back overflow and teeming for it 
Remove aoe cap
For me it'll be challenging anyways since I started playing only in 8.1
I don't know any of those dungeons
Boy, did I miss some juicy drama
it was not
No juicy drama
It was actually buffed 
Just regular sin chat
guys how master poisoner talent interacts with deadly poisons conduit and dashing legendary? iam confused if its somehow interacts or ?
they synergize together, yeah
MP is a flat 30% increase to poisons damage, lethal poisons conduit is a % increase to the initial damage of poisons, and dashing increases your poisons crit chance.
no double dipping or anything secret
so deadly poisons and shiv have same efffect? but different percentage of buff?
too many layers of this poison stuff. makes things kinda complicated to understand
master poisoner buff your weapons poison (deadly, wound, instant)
shiv buffs envenom
which is nature
shiv buffs envenom + poisons?
Yes
yes, because poison is nature
and deadly poisons conduit buffs initial poison aplication and ticks ? or only initial
this is not clear why blizz did that, (
which deadly poisons got amplification?
the 10% one or 5.9%
which is tick and which is initial aplication?
well it actually amounts to less than that, given you look at an already amplified damage hitting 10%
in this particular screen i dont have this conduit on
ok so yup, pretty much what you said
iam just asking if i put it on. this will buff only this part off my damage table by 18%
right?
sounds weak xD
most sin conduits are
they weren't during SL beta but got nerfed in the last two weeks before patch
poison bomb affffected by shiv?
poison bomb is affected by both shiv and Dashing
Oh.. dont forget that chaos brand also buff nature damage
well this is given ye
Shiv affect all poison damage dealt by u
and master poisoner only buffs 10% + 5.9% of my damage ffrom screen above and thats all too?
That exclude trinket. Its an extenal applicarion
basically, shiv affects everything that counts as rogue nature ability damage, so no trinket, no exterior buff giving you nature hits
ye trinket not buffed at all i know
yup, it only buffs those
i searched a bit for myself, and couldn't find much more info, but I think it only applies to deadly poison (instant + DoT)
its not crystal clear from description for me. thats why wanted to clarify it
which one buffs what
so for instance, shiv covers all of your nature abilities, and dashing works on pretty much any of those too, master poisoner on both instant and dot parts of deadly poison, and lethal poison only applies to the instant part
ye now u got it. tnx
maybe there are people who know more about master poisoner around here, I don't know much about the talent either, I just tested it for myself
ye testing on dummy works best. but sometimes for me fastest way is to type few sentnces her
It's bad.
Master Poisoner was good in Legion because our build was more poison focused with the overpowered poisons bomb and Kingsbane.
Master poisoner is good in pvp but that’s where it ends unfortunately
But it hasn't seen much play after and is only used in pvp to amplify the poisons used there (wounding and crippling mainly)
Makes me wonder if legion timewalking will give us back artifacts and the abilities, so maybe we can use it again 😉
i just hope we wont be obligated to farm autoattack ring from court off stars
Chaos brand doesn’t boost our nature dam afaik
And mastery used to just buff poison damage
Could have like 180% mastery at the end of legion lol
nature damage is just regular magic damage, so chaos brand works on it just fine
pretty much everything is buffed by dh debuff which is why probably the most required of any buff
I still bot have a definitive answer on if that is the case? Are you sure?
I remember someone else saying it wasn’t the case
If all I have is max unholy set is doom blade my best option besides Dash/frost?
I know a lot of the higher gear sims use Obedience just curious which I should prioritize
yes i am sure
if you want to check externally just run a quick sim with and without it enabled and observe the differences
Good idea
as a general rule though pretty much everything that's not physical is included, fusion amp damage phial damage poisons etc
outliers are rare but do happen, like winds of winter isn't affected i don't think (would have to actually check/test that though)
but as a baseline just assume it werk
Winds of winter is blacklisted from everything because of double dipping
As it stacks from damage you deal
For zoldyck do u guys go Crit/mast or crit/haste?
Thanks
hmm 2 246 sylva daggers worse than 2 252 dominas dagers.,. by 50 dps in frost gear (
I hate how bad I always parse lol I feel like I’m playing well too but I just get blasted by the other rogue in our group every time
Link your logs and we'll take a look
you can get sylv dagger from the vault right?
As long as you killed sylvanas at least once yes
even cheating with 2 PIs I cant get close to our lord and savior 
it was rank2 when I got it, then I checked who was r1 
Ye idk either what kinda steroids he uses
he even wasted a combo point, what a noob
At Guardian you also have to be a little bit lucky with bombs I feel
I got like 4 of em last night which was really tilting
Of which 2 during shiv+vendetta
U cant make that shit up
i mean you have to be lucky that's all xD
Nah that’s not what I’m saying, getting every round of mechanics just doesn’t help
I mean, there is RNG is crits, mechanics, procs, etc... WoW is an RPG with a lot of RNG in its game mechanics. You gotta deal with it
The dude is doing a lot of heroic clear (boosting probably) there are kill where he will do 10k some where he will do 11.5k
I'm sure he's not playing differently every time
he do the same exact things
Yes ofc,
Doing mechs right and one shotting > getting good number on website :D
But he def tweaks here and there when it comes to timing
Can we cloak off the fragments?
agree but that's not the debate here
well @fallen arch noticed he had bad RNG regarding encounter mechanics during a very good pull of him.
And I just remind that Parsing and Ranking on WLC is kinda biased anyway because there are too much factors independant from your own personnal skills such as gear and rng
Oh absolutely haha
I can understand getting a lil tilting from getting frags like 4 times in a row but idk I kinda like getting/doing mechanics
Getting multiple bombs like that tho does kinda blow tho lmfao
Can always just shadowstep right after tho and if you're a goblin that's even better c:
Idk, either you kill the boss multiple time in a row until you get the perfect pull and then you can complain that you played bad when all stars where align.
Either you don't do that, but then you can't really complain you get bad rng 😄
Haha
I feel like getting runes every time is the absolute worst
Again can we cloak off the fragments on the nine or am I just coping
it will jump on someone else I think
That's what I thought honestly
then that someoneelse will have to do the mechanic xD
But another outlaw rogue said that's what he did so I was curi-
oh my God lmfao
ahh it all makes sense now
yeah then someone else do the mechanics insteed of him xD
that lil bitch gonna get a mouthful when he wakes up on god
Save cloak for other mechanics
yeah i can't imagine wasting it esp on mythic
Using it for fragments is trolling
sometimes them circle soaks can be sooo bad lmfal
not like the encounter is difficult anyway
but like yeah I'd say "if you don't want to deal with mechanics and only want to hit a dummy, go to stormwind's dummy"
lmfao
naked brawl in the guild, which spec do you guys reckon is the better one, sub or assa :D?
you ask in #assassination so you already picked your choice 😛


I was wondering if there is a huge difference in MM+ overall between obe and zoldyck
Fuck other people, parces>people
Sure dude
Can we cloak off the meteor?
this is a zero brain cell question but -- how do you shadowcore oil offhand?
You click it
Lmao
It will oil up your mainhand and then your offhand
On god
Frfr
Click shadowcore. If the bug happens where i does i on mainhand even tho its sharpened or whatever i put mainhand in bags and click shadow ore
No cap on a stack
I just want to say that ive cloaked off frqgments multiple times
Usually while on the marker
Usually
I like telling myself it helps healers because they have to do fewer dispells
i do it occasionally when the dispell doesnt come fast enough
Yeah basically
I assume someone fucked up an earlier dispell and its on CD so i just cloak
worst case you get one of the bad overlap meteors and you can just sac yourself instead of soaking if the group needs it
Does assassination just not scale well? Is that why we're so low on the charts now?
Wdym you scaled from wr750-wr5. We scale 
Low on charts?
No idea what you mean. Assa is in the best spot it’s been since launch.
9.0.5 was pretty sick
I skipped 9.0.5
Oh
9.05 was best spot
Well thats when we had the best st besides sp
I blame burnout for missing out on the glory

Frosty 
@stray mural Your blame is in the wrong place. Blame Blizz not burnout
brb rerolling feral

That person seems kinda stupid
how do i grab a simc from gear compare
like to grab the simc for a specific item?
you should be able to run it and then open the raw input at the bottom I think
Warriorman sounds like a smart man
You still havent left that guild then?
When are you leaving that guild? Lol
ferals are nuts bro
they pump super hard
no one plays them cause everyone loves boomkins
but they are pumpin this tier
hey folks, short question
do we still use envenom/rupture at 4 combo points?
No one plays then because they are meele druid has a broken range specc every tier and feral can not bring anything of value besides DMG so they have to compete against all the other meeles
indeed
so like a rogue with no shroud and more damage
Not only are they melee, but boomie brings roar for them and innervate
Yes
just need to finish farming Phial/get a 252 wep and i think we're chillin.
how much DPS am I losing by incorporating throw knife to always hit 5 point ruptures when needed
No idea, but that's not really ever the play. Only throw knife when you can't hit the boss so you don't overcap on energy.
idk my parses are pretty solid currently averaging about 13 throw knives in melee range of boss 

dont do it 

that's something so weird, I have no idea how much of a loss it is
but it's 100% not worth
not even close
throw knife is extraordinarely bad
Dont need a calculator
5 point rupture with 99% sounds better than sometimes a 4 point sometimes a 5 point
what

you asked why that is my reasoning
you know throw knife has a cost to press, right
the difference between 4 and 5 cp rupture
is linear
the tick damage
does not change
you're literally only getting extra time on your rupture
and you're wasting energy in the process

wait they have to change a 4 point rupture is 5770 over 20 sec while a 5 point is 6924 over 24
so you DO have a calculator after all
hmmmmmmmmmmm i did not know that
that's why every guide written in the last 6 years has suggested finishing on 4 cp

the only reason you prefer higher-cp finishers over doing like 1 cp is energy efficiency since it costs the same and you'd need to refresh more frequently
but the diff between casting 4 and 5 is like 2 energy lost
and poisoned knife costs 40
also does absolute shit damage
tbh old rupture worked like that
one of the best changes for assa tbh when they did away on that
maybe with a poison knife new leggo this could be fun
nononon
bring back that stacking buff azerite thing
sharpened blades was not a funny gameplay
Whispyr has enlightned me I will be top 100 next week now
in general I wouldnt advise going again guides and sims
and feelcrafting things yourself
cause 99% of the time, it's wrong
Poisoned knife 
i've some strange DS sims Oo
telling me to go Nightstalker and Deeper Stat Oo For both Obedience and Zoldyck Oo
Yes, basically finisher CP usage is just energy efficiency. So if one would do something energy inefficient to increase energy efficiency, that's somewhat counter-productive. That's why it's not usually worth it to force something like this.
is the frost domination set bonus or the unholy set bonus better for assassination? I keep seeing stuff about both being good but am unclear which one is more effective.
at higher gear levels frost is better. you'd have to use raidbots and sim yourself to know what's best for you, but generally sin goes frost.
okay. thank you
yeah that can happen
Anyone know how to get the little arrows on your target for PlateR/
Plater? i'm using Ceverons rn
@limber lion any advice to this?
lemme look
They dont stand out that much, i used another plater where youo had big arrows eitehr side
So, what should i do ? Oo
maybe you can download it or something liket that
whatever you want to
@balmy condor any plater advice?
yes
I hate the arrows so idk where to get them
oo okay
it usually is for iron wire
but that whole row is pretty much a toss up damage wise
Oh OK thanks
10.3k in HC Sylv p3

Can't wait for wednesday when I finally get my mythic dagger from the vault.

you r5 frost this week cev?
disgusting
Yup!
@limber lion any idea about getting arrows on ur plater profile?
Well, currently in plater there are only options to add highlights/change the nameplate texture when targetting them (afaik)
but you can use a mod to add arrow options
like this one
thanks
Didn't get any externals
I kinda wanna get a PI bot for some raid
would be pretty dank
wheres the fun in that
cev is unreal
If I want to push into higher keys (20+) is it best that I craft Zoldycks? Or can I get by with doomblade?
Those who have mythic sylv on farm.. arent you bored out of your brains with this game?
where do I buy sin coaching from
trying to get those 100s like Cev
stuck in 90+ range 😢
I've done some coaching before.
It really depends.
There's times when you're bored, but then there's things that excite you about the game.
Raiding is still fun.
I think a big thing is
raiding with people you enjoy
because a dogshit toxic guild will really make you not want to log in
so even farm becomes fun
when u play with chill ppl
but BACK TO THIS COACHING CEV
Where do I sign up and what's the fee
Well it really depends on what you're looking for right
But you can hit me up in the dms if you're serious about it.

cev gonna teach him to dance 
teach me to dance king >.<
Personnaly i just like to raid. I would stay stay in raid 100% of the time if i could
But sadly this game doesnt allow us to go mythic raid without beiing lock
@limber lion Crit/Mastery for Zoldyck since it's only used for m+ now? Or am I getting pulled into the Mastery trap?
Yeah that's fine.
I'm gearing my Alliance rogue now just to play with some friends
So I won't be raiding
If im looking at my logs and I want to check if im using bone spike only during gemstone windows, whats the easiest way to do that? I'd love if there was a way to mkae the chart show gemstone buff time in the same way it does bloodlust (like colored out when its up) and then look at casts but im not sure if thats possible?
go to damage done, then select the gemstone icon
it'll filter
thanks ❤️
Damn. For some reason I was thinking you could put Zoldyck on a cloak

why do I have a ping
he got scared and deleted it

I see
the question was
parsing is more then pressing buttons and rotation ?
something like that
what
He basically was clarifying that parsing is dependent not only on how well you play but also on things you cant really control ex) kill time, raid buffs, etc
This whole game is just pressing buttons
@limber lion it wasn’t me




ppPoof
Does haste affect our poisons and bleeds?
our enh shammy just changed jobs and cant make our raid times anymore 
Yes it does.
yeah
Thanks all, I thought so, just didn't know for sure.
any1 else spamming feedback to make ct baseline and make exsaguinate great again like me ?
for 9.1.5

i mean there were some stuff with talents and stuff buffs or nerfs so might become true
?
if there was ever a time to convince blizz to give smoke bomb back its now
true
tbh ill settle for just making dead talents viable
every couple weeks i have to hover over venom rush to remind myself what it does
Theyre gonna take a look at talents
And decide that ele shaman needs some improvements
When it uses a bunch of different ones
Then neglect us
Aoe cap probably is 10.0
I think thats a good take
Too much rebalancing
I wouldnt even blame them for waiting on the aoe cap
i think so to but then that makes legion m + akward doesnt it
Idk
Ive heard that
Maybe they had the development time to decide to uncap some abilities
Which isnt even a bad direction
Some abilities actually do make sense capped, builders could make sense capped
Doesn't shiv's current state kinda feel like exsanguinate did?
like toxic blade, not exsanguinate
I don't mean they do the same thing. Just meant it feels similar. Single target, medium-short cd, slight burst window. Tbh I think it'd feel weird to add exsang atm
well thats the thing they would have to make it useful and make sense
theres stuff that just needs redesign
They have to lower damage on somethings to make them uncapped
for assassination? i doubt theyd have to lower any of our aoe damage if they uncapped it.
ct and fok with deadly would be busted
im an idiot, but i seriously think it wouldnt increase our damage by an absurd amount
it would certainly be alot better, but it wouldnt go out of control
shivs current state feels like toxic blade though


Weird
Strange, never thought of that
9.1.5 talent buffs, what’s the Wishlist @balmy condor
I personally would like to see MA go to 100% like it always should've been, wouldn't actually change the power level of the talent much considering we're at 40% atm
I also kind of want to see a blindside/ambush buff
not using ambush at all
is kinda weird
poison bomb buffs are needed as well imo
hey, does the necro legendary is worth doing?
it's usable, but zoldyck is just better
give pb like a 30 sec plus cd and we can drop it where we want
im between this and MA
are you raiding at all
or make pb a finisher on cd like secret techniques or someth
hc only, im focused on M+
deathspike probably fine
your single target will be dogshit
but such is life I guess
and what about MA, its better?
it's a pretty mediocre legendary for every spec, in every content
so i'll go with deathspike, thank u
good god it's so hard to pug keys with alt characters
How much do log reviews cost nowadays
people pay for coaching, log reviews, yadda yadda yadda
sometimes their class discord is a shitshow
I mean that’s arguably the biggest part of coaching someone tho
Reviewing their logs and telling them what to fix lol
well with coaching ideally you'd watch them stream or a recording and point out flaws i assume
i was gonna say log reviews take like a second and can only give pretty superficial tips
usually
I mean you can probably get more info from a log than you can a vod
a vod shows how they play
depends also if its raid/dungeon coaching
If only this class discord was shit like some of the others we could be making gold
lmao do what?
others charge for log reviews?
Think he means charge people
/s
i need to do that
I pugged a 16 mists last night and ended up at like 50% overall
Yeah
damn they must have been griefing
Which was fine I really didn’t mind they were a guild and it was the highest they’d done I just wanted my weekly done
yeah solid
Nice people yknow
for sure
Mostly a joke, just beating myself up in between prog wipes because the other rogue is beating me sometimes
I just want to be the very best I can be
Like no one ever was
exactly you get it
but seriously can anyone look over my nine/nerzhul logs and see if I'm messing anything up?
Or alternatively point me to some sources on how to better understand logs so I dont have to ask for help so often?
You can check the archived threads in here
they're all log reviews with some pretty good advice
If you’ve only got 1 nerzhul kill I wouldn’t worry about it too much as prog kills are always low parsing
i am trialing tonight so it was my first kill ever
most of it is probably not being used to the mechs and stuff then you would think
i think the big thing is going from orange/pink parses in heroic to blue/purple in mythic is a little demoralizing/sobering mainly
better players in mythic as well
big sad 😦
Only one person got a purple log on the kill so it’s definitely a group thing and not just you
im sure you're doing fine
first kill -> doesn't matter, get garbage logs but kill the damn boss
work on logs after you know where you can optimize stuff
Second kill -> 95+ parse or die
hey guys, may someone explain what this means? curious
isnt that an intellect trinket
correct
That’s an int trinket you can alter the proc on
It’s got nothing to do with rogues de
Dw
okie dokie thank you!
hello rookie question does lets say fan of knives proc the phial trinket 😅
yeah
do you keep crimson tempest up in single target in mythic+?
you don't necessarily keep it up but you do use it
it's better than envenom outside of shiv windows, assuming you'll get the full benefit of the bleed
what ilvl would the dagger from sylv be in lfr? 220?
yeah
if you don't use it it's like not taking a talent in that row
I simmed IQD versus shadowgrasp, a 242 IQD beat shadowgrasp should i trust my sims?
in ST
shadowgrasp was 246
You keep CT up single target outside of shiv window. Unless you are running dashing in which case you can drop CT all together on 1 target
it’s an int trinket which has 4 possible procs - haste/crit/mastery/all3 but rare chance 1 per day. U can change the proc by eating related stat food. 3 stat has a very rare chance of procing first time each day
Wait lfr sylv is out?
yes
man i am llate
dude i told them to jump off the platform if they were targeted with arrows and they fuckin jumped to their deaths i fucking died lmfao.
they stood on the platform when raze went off too oh ma lawd
the best was when i told people targeted with the arrow to follow the guy with the target marker on their head and when he went over the people with arrows and everyone else went over lmfaooo what a shit show
people dont even touch the adventure guide on god
no 99% of wow players expect to get carried
you are a sadist o.o
in lfr

I actually can’t believe how many people get away with building pug groups to carry them to aotc
Fake it till ya make it
Ye amazes me too
But it’s lfr
Pls
?
90%of raiders have no clue what they need to do by default
like
ask your raidteam why its important to not have the puddle dot on your during the sylvanas raid aoe in p3
i can gurantee that probably only 2-3 know the reason 
o.O
majority of people dont know mechanics and just do what the RL says
Oh sorry that wat meant for @brazen zodiac ranting about lfr
I mean come on, we know that it’s bad. Don’t have to vent in this group about it
ohh lol
Which is fine because it means they can listen and follow orders
I don’t think that’s the case in mythic guilds tho, it is probably in many aotc teams
it is
Definitely still heaps of people on autopilot in mythic guilds.
i can tell u regarding my guild, we have basically 3 or 4 tourists who absolutely dont understand a fight even after 70 wipes and 2 downs. Mythic guild yep
just need a golden pull without them to have to deal with a mecanic 
well yeah, there's still a range on mythic guilds lol
starting m soulrender tonight, does dashing and CT makes any sense? or should i pick something else? i have doomblade 262 and obedience 235
Doomblade should be gucci tbh
Tbh your main job is single target on that fight CT always makes sense for the fight cause he gets moved so much im sure if you looked at your logs Pb did no damage. So I'd go with your dashing
if you go dashing there's no point going CT for the ST
so either doomblade+ct or dashing and pb?
i guess i have to see how fast we can deal with adds if my help is needed at all
yea sure you go CT if you're on the adds
or if they live a while
I kinda assume guilds blast the adds like mine but maybe they won't
i think we shouldnt have problems with adds as long we can stack them nicely. no bdk tho (or low ilvl alt) so im just trying to be ready for both scenarios
i think just go CT and you'll see
ok, thanks
SGT or 252 OH from vault...
252 Ocular gland sims best, thing i should just take OH and wait until I get Ocular from mythic?
(already using 252 phial) with 239 ocular / fusion amplifier
SGT pretty stronk
Ocular easy to get if you’re already farming the Eye
Idk what all could replace SGT if it’s 252, maybe only mythic fusion amp?
He’s got 252 phial
Oh ye I see
But wouldn’t a heroic sylvanas dagger replace a 252 OH
Even if only by a little bit
I think the only thing that beats SGT is a 252 fusion amp
Not for sin
Yeah same for on use
For sub yes
Wtf really
For sin it’s close
i had a sim but for some reason its not available any more
Just checked, I have a 246 thorn in offhand and hc EoN is only a 19 dps upgrade for me
Kinda w/e
Why is my 233 oh out simming my 246 daggers then? 
I should probably resim and see if that’s still the case
Check for proper enchants
Enchants are le proper I assure you
But my 233 out simmed my 246 crit/mastery and my 246 haste/vers daggers by like 18 dps

Idk, stats, covenant, magic?
Yo! So when I do my opener I do mutilate > SnD >mutilate > Garrote > Rupture> Flagellation > Vendetta > Shiv > Vanish > mutilate > Envenom and so on.
Is this right?
Could I change something?
Flag before rupt
So I should be doing Mutilate > SnD > mutilate > Garrote > Flag> Rupture> Vendetta > Shiv > vanish > mutilate > envenom
Good!
I mean, that’s what was predicted to happen all along wasn’t it?
I think so but ngl it feels bad having a 233 OH
But sylvie no wanna give me dagger 
You’ll get it
I’ve gotten literally every other piece of loot on her table except the dagger 
I’ve gotten it all
Belt? Check. Ring? Check. Chest? Check
Except.. belt?
Like ma’am. Stop it
I got chest and ring same night
We both know why we’re here
Hahah
Just gimme that sweet sweet edge of night so I can stop running heroic already
My guild does sales every Monday 
My guild hasn’t seen one amp 
Soon
I think we have to do some normals first
If they got it it was from the vault
We gotta boost some normals for logs with carries with no wipes
Also if the eye could stop giving us 3 trinkets every time we kill it
That’d be swell
And then we’re clear for hc boosting
Vers mastery hc painsmith gloves 
Lmfao same
I got my first real mythic piece
Tara shoulders

From?
First 5
Only piece of gear I got from mythic were boe pants
That I had to pay the guild for ???
15 kills each boss?
No way
Is that the rule in your guild?
this was the sim
depends.. if they use BOEs to buy consumes for the guild for.. i think its fine
It’s whatever it was a small amount
Just weird to me idk
Much less than the 250k they were selling for on the AH
all gold to 1 person, or to the guild that can provide the raid with consumes for free
Yea they provide 2 cauldrons, vantus and augment runes, and feasts and pots
True true
So it probably saved me gold in the long run
ye
I’ve been lw/engineering since wrath
So I’ve made exactly zero gold off professions on my rogue

Do you have bfa engin leveled?
Yeppers

Engi is maxed out for every expac 
Dang you’re on another server tho
Whatchu lookin for
I wanna buy some goggles
The bfa ones were bind of pickup I’m pretty sure
does CT apply poisons?
Don’t think so just mutilate, shiv and fan of knives
And poison knife
Iirc
Hmm you may be right. I might have to level it myself eh
I think some dropped from mechagon hard mode too
Ahh
does cloak stop remnent malevolance
The puddles?
the kick
The knock back?
yeah
Only if you time it perfectly
You only have like a half second of full magic immunity
Safer to shadow step
gotcha
what do people tend to be simming for at 248-250 ilvl currently?
my assa sims for just above 10k but my outlaw is simming for like 11k so I'm not sure it's ever worth me playing it
At 242 with dashing I sim at 10k
And my outlaw sims around 9.6-9.8k
248-250 should be closer to if not passed 11k if I’m not mistaken
Kyrian?
yeah kyrian
That might have a little something to do with it, shouldn’t be 1k difference though
shouldn't be 1k behind ye
I know nothing about kyrian soulbinds
You’re still geared as hell tho
crit stacked with vers
r4
Can’t see from phone
r5 next week :p
Did you sim other 262s?
True
Bs/ds
Is 100+ dps with dashing usually
For me at least
I'll give that a try
sim seems about right for your gear and covenant
Is it worth to Swap back to Necrolord for me? I swapped to Venthyr because i wanted to give Sub a try for a Patch but its unbelievably boring for me personally and i mainly do Mythic+
I wonder how much loss it is in-game compared to outlaw, cuz I feel like outlaw tends to slightly oversim but idk
Sure that’s 100% up to you
assa rogues can sim a fair bit lower and still be equal in damage, and I parse high as outlaw so
this was +70 dps, ty
sub is def sleeper for keys compared to outlaw and sin and i would 100% play necro assa if i could
or necro outlaw even
simming deeper blindside is kinda pointless tbh since it's not really played anywhere
i think you'd prolly do equally well as sin, but there's some really basic stuff you can move around for gains if you have valor
like pf ring just valored no socket is probably like 70 dps or something lol
Is that the highest simming soul bind for assa kyrian?
Big thing that was holding my outlaw sims back was soulbinds Draven instead of Theo/Nadjia
I'll probably valor my ring next week unless I can get the nine/painsmith ring on mythic
I have enough to socket it too when I get any of them
pf ring is definitely better than the nine ring
Yeah
and if you get the painsmith one you'd want both anyway
but ye
stuff like that comes from playing the spec for a while
Cev was saying 259 sylv ring and arachnid ring are bis
small decisions add up to sizable dps over time, like making outlaw decisions on things
what neck would you say is bis?
Halls is decent iirc
I assume KT mythic is bis right?
the sims in the bis profile shit is using the remnant neck
but its probably a toss up between kt and remnant
the default profile uses the kt m one
Remnant neck is the crit vers ye?
yes
Idk what the sims use
the default profile uses kt, but it doesn't really matter
Ik depending on your set up, either could be better
Right
just templates to sim from
Ye
remnant neck is just heavily crit stacked
but i doubt in your current gear it looks like this
when you hit r5 frost things start tipping weirdly
I've got a while to gear my assa I guess, I just want it ready to play for sylvanas
it's probably a lot better than outlaw there right?
Just from what I’ve seen, yeah. Not experienced enough to say 100%
there's a fair bit of downtime that makes outlaw just suffer a lot

What would you take from vault lads?
SGT or 252 OH?
(252 ocular sims better than SGT so i could wait to get that)
Not constantly recycling CDs like a fight like guardian
yeah it's just the CDR, it affects specs like outlaw way more than specs with set cooldowns
I’ve heard sub is good for sylvanas too with its CDs
if you added periods of downtime to a sim of outlaw vs assa you'd definitely see outlaw lose
Assa just the safe play though
I suck at sub and I enjoy assa anyway so I'm happy to play assa
it's simming ocular at 100% uptime so I'd probably take sgt
how much % crit do we want for the frost build then? Ill be at maybe 42% if i dont have ocular
Some things you gotta choose, my friend. 252 OH is juicy for sin. SGT is pretty juicy too if you’re not getting M fusion amp any time soon
No set %
Sim yourself for best results.
yeee its not even much DPS between them 🤣 just the choice is killing me!
How did ram do?
I know the feeling 
fine kinda
I never had the chance to tune in
it just can't offer the same boss dam either of the other specs can
Was usually at work
True true
What's sgt?
Shadowgrasp totem
Derp lol was driving me nuts

i never said it'd be better smh
i said it'd be better than his spires neck
but i think it is probably better for a lot of people for now
if they aren't disgutting ocular gland gamers
and with some other gear
only 6 more weeks till i get r5 frost.. any day now..
Anyone ever try squeezing in 2 flagellation in p2 mythic painsmith? Then lining it up with vendetta in p3?
You say that like it’s my choice

Why are there so many necro assa rogues if it sims much worse than venth?
Because not everyone strictly only cares for assa and how much it sims for. People like the flexibility of other covenants for outlaw etc
I've seen assa one tricks going necro, and they basically don't play keys other than 4-10 weeklies
and obviously I don't strictly care only for how much it sims, which is why I'm asking here in the first place
ive been onetricking assa this patch and i play necro
i feel like necro is better on every fight except guardian
sbs fun, flag no fun
250 dps difference on single target sure but only guardian is single target
and also more fun
plus some people want a covenant signature ability that's not useless outside of korthia
Yea sbs is much more engaging gameplay than Flag
Much more minor imo, you’re already unkillable as a rogue in m+

just got to 41.31% crit 20% haste and dashing and doom are within 7 dps of each other in my sims
Sick seems like you got options
is there a way for non outlaw rogue to dodge the exile on last boss of NW ?
hey folks. any quick advice for soulrender mythic dps wise? worth to DoT up small adds?
I don’t believe so, the reason it works for outlaw is because it’s a projectile and if you are flying while it “hits” you it doesn’t take you down
How does everyone value Obediance vs Doomblade? They basically sim the same for me as Assa and I have both maxed.
Are there some fights where one would be better then the other?
CDR isn’t always great in fights that have intermissions or fights with long downtime (KT) so that’s worth considering

No
What is better Sharpening stone+oil or just 2 oils on weapons, to get more damage from potion of phantom fire in raid?
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
@maiden kindle
thanks
is there a way to move slyvanas myth?
we noticed that shes at different positions in kill videos
and jumps weirdly for us to inconvinient places
What phase?
Aprox what value secondaries should i am for as assassination?
+- 20% haste
??% crit
??% vers
??% mastery
phase 1
In p3 her positioning is a bit dumb, as it largely depends on whether she decides to do the mythic tank mechanic. P1 you mostly bait her position with the veil bait
so if you veil bait the same she'll allways jumps to the same position?
aight, thanks :)
P1 veil can only go on ranged, yeah
So if they stack in a certain position, she'll always go there
Do i have to oil both my weapons or it doesnt make any sense?
for the 10% dmg
or is it better oil my main hand and stone my offhand?

ty
Yw
but since it says in the text'' your weapon'' which means single weapon , then I guess 1 oil is enough to make this 10% dmg 25 sec active
cuz i wanna do 1 oil 1 sharp 😄 just curious if i had to oil both weapons to gain this 10% dmg 25 sec
stop thinking about secondaries that way, just sim your character
Hello. Is it okay to finish at 4 cp in flag or shiv window? I usually find myself in situation where I don't have enough energy to pump these 5 cp finishers in these windows
