Yes

fallen arch
#

I'm low key kinda sad

#

Cause now I'll actually have to burn cinders and gold on 262 Dashing

subtle karma
#

Hi
Does anyone know how to sim sylv fight in top gear ? (the enemy_health_pct = 45 thingy)

limber lion
#

You cannot sim for Sylvanas specifically

#

It's such a massive encounter with a lot of phases, movement, adds, mechanics etc.

#

You just sim patchwork and trust that sim and play accordingly.

#

Using EP/Vig obviously, instead of BS/DS

subtle karma
#

just single target and the fact the boss dies at 45
Just wanted to see if blood gem is worth it, or if I can replace a dom piece with a 246/252

limber lion
#

You can definitely swap it out

#

Bek is not a great shard on that fight.

subtle karma
#

Yeah I figured
That means I'll a replace a 239 with 246 šŸ™‚

#

thx

drifting cloud
#

you can use uh succ gem

fallow estuary
#

Wait

#

isn't uh succ gem like "if you put helpfull spells on others, they succ"?

rocky pecan
#

well you loose bek for p2 tho

#

after idk

fallow estuary
#

i believe this is the gem you want instead of bek if you can get to p3 consistent

rocky pecan
#

i wouuld prolly take the uunholy aura*

fallow estuary
#

wait which aura? am i missin something?

rocky pecan
#

uunholy zed

fallow estuary
#

but isnt that like

#

IF you heal someone they gain an aura?

#

idk i don't use vial THAT often

charred wraith
#

you heal yourself with recuperator conduit

#

which means that it basically procs on cd

fallow estuary
#

Does it share a CD with auras from others | stack?

#

Like if my drood heal heals me and i proc his zed

#

can i proc my own and it stacks?

charred wraith
#

ehm, i dont know, but i would say, who cares, it does dmg and bek does 0 dmg on sylvanas except for last 5% and adds in p2 and chains in p1 kinda not enough to make bek worth it

fallow estuary
#

Yea i agree on the bek part

#

i just think the heal one upgraded would be more worth in p3 since healin required is kinda insane

#

but i can be wrong ofc

cobalt pelican
#

bek probably does more damage if you isolate for p3 but ye

bleak spoke
#

kind of a dumb question cuz there's no way, but does exsang affect bone spike

vestal wren
#

just a reminder that you can chisel and socket your gems during a fight

#

no, exsang does not effect bone spike

bleak spoke
#

yeah that would be too crazy

vestal wren
#

it did on ptr once iirc

#

was quite broken

bleak spoke
#

can see some rather degenerate use cases

vestal wren
#

not as server crashing as the shaman thing

bleak spoke
#

oh i didn't even think of that angle haha

cloud reef
#

The shaman thing?

bleak spoke
#

computing problems monkaCHRIST

fallen arch
reef axle
#

is it a thing to complain about the amount of afk dmg winds of winter is? lol

vestal wren
# cloud reef The shaman thing?

Shamans finally become a fun class to play in the Shadowlands Beta.
Breakdown happens at: 3:00

#

was the first video i found on google that showcased it

bleak spoke
#

right

reef axle
#

true

bleak spoke
#

though it would be more satisfying to look at on a meter if it actually was

#

just strikethrough

#

LUL

vestal wren
#

keep in mind that this was beta so things are supposed to be broken

#

or well bugs are more common to word it diffrently

bleak spoke
#

oh yeah of course, not flaming blizzard or anything like that, it's just interesting that that caused a problem

vestal wren
#

its just the amount of spells the server needs to handle
we had a lot of more game breaking bugs during testing periods

bleak spoke
#

i actually really miss exsang, that button felt nice to press

arctic hare
#

lol

vestal wren
#

exsang is atm just well weak

bleak spoke
#

alacrity is just too crazy numerically though

vestal wren
#

it needs a massive buff or a rework

bleak spoke
#

i think it would be cool if it had something like that doomblade envenom effect

reef axle
#

most fun i had with the spec was exang

bleak spoke
#

like when you have exsanguinated dots your env casts are buffed by x dmg

arctic hare
#

That’d be kinda cool

vestal wren
#

i think most ppl who remember exsang did like it mostly due to how broken the spec was when it was relevant

bleak spoke
#

yeh

arctic hare
#

Finally got into outlaw again

bleak spoke
#

8.0 shrouded, 8.3 expedient basically for me, i think it was busted once in legion too?

#

or soemthing like that

vestal wren
#

haste stacking with corruption removed so much from the spec that the rotation became close to what dh has

#

energy management was not a thing anymore

bleak spoke
#

yeah, i actually liked 8.0 exsang way more than 8.3 exsang

vestal wren
#

and you could just spam your abilities all day

bleak spoke
#

cuz in 8.0 when you pressed exsang you felt like you were actually empowered for its duration

#

to actually have buttons to press

reef herald
#

Do we use CT in single target with dashing legendary?

arctic hare
#

Nope

bleak spoke
#

but in 8.3 your global is 1s you fill every global have fun etc

vestal wren
#

the reason exsang was good in 8.0 was due to it snapshotting haste tho

bleak spoke
#

and shrouded hadn't been nerfed 3 times by 50% or whatever it was haha

vestal wren
#

most ppl stacked it with galecallers boon

bleak spoke
#

yeh i remember

#

that was a cool trinket

#

the speed boost made it kinda less annoying than the other rune-of-power type trinkets imo

#

or like, dreamweaver circle type things now

arctic hare
#

You know a trinket is op when its used on agility classes too

bleak spoke
#

it was an agi trinket

vestal wren
#

i am not a big fan of trinkets that requires you to stay stationary

arctic hare
#

Wait

#

It was?

bleak spoke
#

yeh

arctic hare
#

Oh, okay then

bleak spoke
#

you're thinking of merethka's fang

arctic hare
#

I could’ve sworn it was a int

vestal wren
#

we had and often have that again

arctic hare
#

The heck is merethka’s fang?

bleak spoke
#

oh then i have no idea what you're thinking of PepeLaff

vestal wren
#

caster trinkets that are good on assassination

bleak spoke
#

it was the trinket from temple of sethraliss, did a stacking aoe dot which scaled on haste

#

so you played it on dh

arctic hare
#

Oh, thats kinda cool

lavish lichen
#

Uncapped trinket

vestal wren
#

legion tw could make a caster trinket relevant again, but we will see

lavish lichen
#

Wild

vestal wren
#

trinkets are usually uncapped

arctic hare
#

So the legion is actually going to happen?

vestal wren
#

legion timewalking will happen in 9.1.5

bleak spoke
#

i'm excited for that ring

#

from CoS

vestal wren
#

but there is no timeline for 9.1.5 what means that there isn't a lot we know about it atm

#

we might get a new ptr build sooner or later

bleak spoke
#

but actually i'm more excited for CoS cuz most of the homies agree that CoS is in their top 3 dungeons of all time i think

vestal wren
#

so far the only change blizz did was to buff the night fae conduit

arctic hare
#

CoS?

#

Call of stratholme?

vestal wren
#

Court of stars

#

one of the faster dungeons to run in legion, i personally didn't like it to much

#

also dh could cheat on it šŸ˜›

bleak spoke
#

all i know about it is that there's some boss where you can lure them away or something but if you did them together itd kick your ass

#

some council*

arctic hare
#

lol

#

Nice

tiny saddle
#

Hey does anyone know where a 252 sudden fractures conduit drops?

plain thistle
#

and a world boss if i remember correctly

strange python
#

hey how do u sim for an item u dont have

vestal wren
#

you can add it in gear compare

strange python
#

even leggos?

vestal wren
#

you can just add legendary items in top gear

#

there is a option on top to add all of them to your selection

strange python
#

thank uu

brazen zodiac
#

u can also copy the simc import link on the wow website and do some stuff to it. whispyr talked about it somewhere. good info

ebon notch
#

Don't get me in trouble pls

#

The only reason I did it is because I had a bunch of pulls before that in different groups where I was sitting on ~12k DPS and thought fuck it

#

Yolo

brazen zodiac
#

LOL

strange python
#

hmm the simming confuses me a lil

gusty mirage
strange python
#

how do i know if i should go frost dashing or unholy obedience

limber lion
#

do you want to do maximum damage?

#

eventually

fathom flax
#

if zold's is only for m+ surely it should be crit/mast right

fallen arch
#

yes probably

#

My sims tell me it should be haste/vers but I don't believe them

zinc frost
#

Finally got H sylv dagger šŸ™šŸ™

spice spire
limber lion
#

Grats!

narrow ravine
#

killed her last night, no dagger no bow

buoyant fossil
#

Is there a specific crit rating there Frost becomes better than Unholy?

limber lion
#

Not really

#

You just gotta sim it

grand ridge
#

at least 35 from what i read

limber lion
#

Yeah, for some it's 40

#

But there's no magic number

grand ridge
#

the other stats also have some value. I noticed if you really try to push crit and let your haste dip you will not gain dps. you need a decent amount of haste too

limber lion
#

It depends on everything.

grand ridge
#

I was able to push my crit up to 45% but my dps went down

#

I guess DR comes into play as well

limber lion
#

You should never feel the difference that minute tbh

#

There's something else going on then

grand ridge
#

that was just from playing with different sim combinations

limber lion
#

Like no raid buffs, different fight length etc

#

Ah fair enough

#

Sim dps went down, right

grand ridge
#

I don't have premium

buoyant fossil
#

Yeah I've been simming and unholy has a decent dps gain over frost. My crit isn't there

grand ridge
#

so I use my guild's quick sim via discord with trial and error lol

limber lion
#

And especially with Dashing

buoyant fossil
#

I'm a Necro doomblade too

limber lion
#

Just get to r4/r5 frost and it'll pull ahead

#

fo sho

grand ridge
#

when I upgrade my gems again the winds will be my top ability even on ST

buoyant fossil
#

Maybe I'm simming wrong, but I did r5 unholy vs r5 frost and unholy still pulled ahead by like 200 dps

#

shard simming feels so clunky for me

alpine latch
rocky pecan
#

r5 frost was 400 dps gain personnaly

#

vs r4 frost

grand ridge
#

I think dashing and frost pull ahead when you try to focus on crit

ebon notch
#

my sim has me at 49% crit LUL

rocky pecan
#

well i didnt even try to focus on crit and got 47%

alpine latch
#

There's no way you didn't focus on crit and ended up with 47%

limber lion
#

I'm at 47.07% crit and 12.5% haste

#

Pretty dank

alpine latch
#

lol

echo cargo
#

I have 47.9 and only made like one conscious decision to get Crit xd

lavish lichen
#

Wtf does focus on crit even mean

#

Do you guys pick what pieces you loot?

alpine latch
#

No but you can pick what pieces you farm out of m+ and prioritize like that.

grand ridge
#

hold onto all gear within a certain ilvl range, when you need to change your itemization around you have options

alpine latch
#

I "focused" on Phial by farming nothing but PF until I got Phial.

grand ridge
#

esp with rings and neck, because you have more wiggle room with ilvl

echo cargo
#

^

#

if you don’t have mythic rings for example, valor upgrading m+ pieces

#

Or belts or legs

#

Anything you don’t have a choice in

lavish lichen
#

That’s not really ā€œfocusingā€ imo you legit just get gear and sim it lol

#

Like you are just picking from the choices you have from the loot you got

alpine latch
#

That's still focusing on something

#

Just because you don't have 100% control over what drops, you can still target-farm

#

You can kill Eye 3 times a week.

#

If you need crit gloves

#

That's focusing the item/stat ...

#

It's not saying you're going to get it, but you're target-farming an item

#

By your logic you only focus on something if you succeed.

#

So the people who lost the Olympics didn't focus on it, because if they did they'd have won

lavish lichen
#

Fair enough

alpine latch
#

I hate the RNG looting of the game, personally. But any time I mention there's better ways people jump on me saying I want stuff free.

rocky pecan
#

i want to break freeeeeeeee

#

oh sorry

limber lion
#

a 252 phial is a 70 dps upgrade over a 246 one

#

sad days.

alpine latch
#

Yup!

limber lion
#

Don't think I'll ever get to 12k sim without a phial

alpine latch
#

A 252 MH dagger is more important than a 252 Phial (if you're lucky enough to get both) when both of the items are 246.

spice spire
alpine latch
lavish lichen
#

MH is different

alpine latch
#

Yeah, I know

lavish lichen
#

You can get 252 from mythic

alpine latch
#

If you are a Mythic raider, yes

lavish lichen
#

Phial just feels way more shitty since its ONLY from the box

alpine latch
#

My guild has replaced at least 1 person a week the entire patch and only like 6 of us are still around from the start.

#

We're probably not getting into Mythic for at least a month

lavish lichen
#

Guilds are falling apart yea

#

In a new one myself

alpine latch
#

People are either leaving us for Mythic guilds since their guild is crumbling and hemorrhaging members or they're quitting the game

#

So we keep recruiting and we'll get there eventually

lavish lichen
#

Recruitment is a bitch

alpine latch
#

Very mcuh so. We're in a tight spot anyway, as we're Friday only.

lavish lichen
#

No cross factions/realm

#

Is a huge barrier for newer guilds

alpine latch
#

Yeah, we're not new but we're Friday only so it's a smaller recruitment pool anyway.

lavish lichen
#

And players on smaller realms

#

That just want to do some entry level mythic

#

Probably can’t

#

Like if you could recruit from any realm

#

From the start if the tier

#

That would be sooo much easier

spice spire
#

You can if people are willing to xfer

#

You just gotta search for it. And most people posting on forums or discord are willing

alpine latch
#

I know I'd love to have another Rogue in the guild to push myself with. But being the only one and no one even coming close to me... I have no real motivation anymore.

#

I was #1 on Ner'zhul by like 1100 DPS

spice spire
#

On the nine pull on Monday, we were carrying some Alts but many were on mains, I was on top by 2.6k. And it wasn’t super impressive damage either

#

The only motivation I need is myself to improve. Plus I see the homies fragging and it makes me want to

soft shale
#

i mean sometimes it hits diff like the key i had a kyrian druid with the leggo on me

fallen arch
limber lion
#

I consistently work on myself and try to find ways to improve myself and my performance in the game.

#

I don't need anyone else to compare to.

spice spire
limber lion
#

I just compare myself to me.

fallen arch
spice spire
#

I wanted to make sure. The boy Palmer been taking action against his old ranting self

limber lion
#

Competition is always good and very much welcome, but in the end it's you that you're fighting against.

spice spire
#

True words Prayge

#

ā€œAll you can do is your bestā€ is something I tell myself every raid

#

But then I still ape out kekw

alpine latch
#

Yeah, it's still hard to push myself when I both don't want to leave my guild and also have zero competition.

#

I just keep working on getting my rotation cleaner and cleaner and go from there

alpine garden
#

Yeah only dps competition I have is an arms warr

#

and its hard to keep pushing when people keep messing up on farm bosses every now and then

alpine latch
#

We lost all of our druids (We started 9.2 with 6 druids), our Arms warrior has been tanking because one of our tanks quit, and our DKs can't decide between Frost and Unholy so they are just destroying their damage by constantly swapping

#

Meanwhile... I'm just over here stabbing shit

alpine garden
#

can't beat a good old stab stab

alpine latch
#

Do you guys run CT on Soulrender?

spice spire
#

I do

#

Even for not the adds

#

Boss doesn’t stand still ever

hollow river
#

My RL wants me on boss damage for soulrender so I don’t take CT

spice spire
#

Ruins PB value

hollow river
#

Those adds die so fast anyway most of the time. Especially on heroic.

rustic cosmos
#

hELLO guyz and girls
just got 252 Occular gland and 252 Quantum device in vault.
Im currently running 239 guardian trinket + phial.
Accoring to my sim Quantum device is supa upgrade for me.
Any oopinon on Quantum? I personally dont like 3minute cds for assa. Thank you

hollow river
#

But if they don’t get deleted immediately in your raid and you’re just trying to parse it’s most likely the play.

alpine latch
#

Yeah, I'm thinking of it more of a "I get MAYBE a second of PB and then the boss moves anyway" thing

hollow river
#

Nah

#

Might be true in some instances but iirc the damage of PB is kinda short lived anyway.

#

People made the same argument for CT on Sire but iirc the reason you played CT was for add damage. I could be wrong.

spice spire
lament dove
#

Ocular sims good as well, but is it really good though? hp gets pummeled a lot due to mechanics all the time...

#

I don't like the idea...

hollow river
#

Uptimes is usually 90-95%+

#

It’s a good trinket for assa frost afaik

alpine latch
#

Occular sims better because it's a 252 vs a 239 Fusion Amp

hollow river
#

But that trinket drops a lot from the eye

alpine latch
#

yeah

#

We get at least one a week

#

It's annoying as fuck

hollow river
#

252 IQD rare

lament dove
#

I had Ocular twice in vault as well, or was it three times...?:D

hollow river
#

IQD has its own wacky way of being used lol

spice spire
#

Diff in ST* in anything above 1 target for majority of fight CT is almost certainly the play

hollow river
#

I don’t think you’d take it for the ST

spice spire
#

Oh yeah going with the sire diff - you ran DB then

hollow river
#

i ran CT on Sire, but only did heroic.

#

never needed more boss dam. but my overall outcome was very slightly higher in that fight tbh.

rustic whale
#

guys CT for Myhtic Nine? or PB?

hollow river
#

p sure most people take PB

#

for the Nine

rustic whale
#

tonight we gonna progress that boss

spice spire
#

I don’t like CT for the nine because the first phase is very short

hollow river
#

exactly

spice spire
#

It’s mostly a pure ST fight

wary ice
#

bosses are also generally stacked when its not a ST fight

spice spire
#

Bull as blue and new PfP three me through a loop

lament dove
#

CT doesn't contribute to Doomblade, right?

wary ice
#

I've been blue for a while

i m using dashing lego then PB ok

Nah he was just a member for the longest time šŸ˜›

wary ice
#

Yeah i honestly just played all the specs

gusty mirage
#

I’ll never forgive blizzard for that

wary ice
#

I've been all in on sub lately cause a) its playable and that wont last very long and b) i just dont fucking get it

#

and i want to

#

i also really dislike assa rn

#

Which is weird cause its not very different from its BFA version

#

which i did like a lot

spice spire
#

It’s not very different from any iteration since wod šŸ˜›

wary ice
#

yeah

#

Just isnt jiving this time for me, idk

hollow river
#

sub is fun too get it while you can šŸ˜Ž

#

i want to do my blood set next

spice spire
#

Happens to the best. But yeah enjoy sub while you can king

fallen arch
#

How can CT not be better there

#

Is the first phase really to short for CT to shine?

oak sky
#

Yeah

#

Especially if you lust on pull poggers

fallen arch
#

Which almost everyone does

oak sky
#

Even in prog its like a minute though @fallen arch

fallen arch
#

Ye I know

oak sky
#

Its like 1 min 2t then 2-4 min st

wary ice
fallen arch
#

Try 6 with my raid

shy dust
#

In time Bullfango

wary ice
#

Yeah I'm not really worried

#

It's just frustrating cause I'll get a 90+ and a 30- parse on the same fight and they look nearly identical

tepid knoll
#

is it worth to stack two of syl daggers(HC) or 252 dagger on main hand

rocky pecan
#

Sim it but prolly 252 main hand as sin

sand sigil
#

well

#

i did r1 with ct last night 😈

rocky pecan
#

On who?

sand sigil
#

nine

rocky pecan
#

Nine with ct ?

sand sigil
#

yeah

rocky pecan
#

On mm ?

sand sigil
#

but also can r1 with pb so i guess it doesn't matter too much

#

yeah on mythic

rocky pecan
#

What your kill time?

#

If i can know

sand sigil
#

lemme go look i guess

rocky pecan
#

So I can take a look VS kill time but I don't think it's doable for me

sand sigil
#

4:51

rocky pecan
#

OK will look thanks sir

sand sigil
#

what do u mean

#

will look

spice spire
#

It’s private logged @rocky pecan

rocky pecan
#

Who?

spice spire
#

The kill he is talking about, it’s private logged

#

There’s no looking at it šŸ˜›

limpid sonnet
#

Does it make a difference which dagger has sinful revalation and which has celstial guidance?

sand sigil
#

also looking now i just noticed i lost to another guy last night who got 3 pi's :/ so it's r2. i beat the r3 dude who got 3 pi's but then lost to some guy last night who also got 3

#

he killed it last night after we killed it i suppose

spice spire
#

Externals smh

#

Unethical

rocky pecan
#

No I mean look for kill time vs my guild for see if it's doable

#

For me to try ct

#

I don't wanted to look at is log kek

spice spire
#

Ahhhhhhhh. Also a 4:22 timer

sand sigil
#

guess there's always next week

bleak sky
#

imagine getting sub 6 The Nine kills

limpid sonnet
rocky pecan
#

Well my last the nine kill was 5:06...

oak sky
#

Just get 4 pis next time

sand sigil
#

it's so lame these days

#

just r2 all the time to some dude with 5 pi's

#

going venthyr to put an end to this madness

alpine latch
#

You're only r2 by people with public logs

#

Not trying to shit on you, but you might really be rank 152

rocky pecan
alpine latch
#

Also, everyone knows that more PIs means more likely than not you're winning out. Don't get discouraged man.

rocky pecan
#

there is something who carry more than pi

#

it's fight length

manic pebble
#

tanks should stop chain pulling when there's a rogue in the party

rocky pecan
#

😢

balmy condor
#

You don’t need that 1% dps

obtuse robin
#

yea , feels worse as outlaw but then u have vanish up every other pull

#

so who cares

balmy condor
#

It’s actually funny cause outlaw loses more from chain pulling

#

Than sin

manic pebble
#

I try to manage my vanish and shadowmeld

#

but it's annoying

obtuse robin
#

i miss shadowmeld

#

cross faction raiding when

deft vault
#

Fr

manic pebble
#

I wanna do mythic raiding so bad right now

sand sigil
manic pebble
#

Alliance so slow

obtuse robin
#

legit would won fix so many things wrong with faction imbalance

manic pebble
#

and my server is dead, nobody is doing mythic raiding

obtuse robin
#

but no my LoRe

willow eagle
#

You should achieve CE no problem on alliance tho

alpine latch
#

That's impressive

drifting cloud
balmy condor
#

He’s missing crucial info

sand sigil
#

did u see ksp btw in mdi? he should have busted out the sin rogue but they put him on mage smh

drifting cloud
#

hes in that casual guild called complexity limit you might have heard of them

sand sigil
#

i wanted to see sin rogue halls

balmy condor
#

Sin in halls

#

But why

subtle tundra
#

sin power

sand sigil
#

it's actually not bad i swear lol

subtle tundra
#

thats all

sand sigil
#

u can do some pretty good dam on sin in halls

drifting cloud
#

dont they do the 21 in like 4 pulls

subtle tundra
sand sigil
#

lol not their team

violet jackal
sand sigil
#

i mean it's obviously not ideal but they were trolling w/ triple mage anyways so

#

he might as well have just played rogue

@sand sigil was waiting for top special Sadge

alpine latch
#

I don't get Halls. The runs that feel like a disaster I 2 chest and the ones that feel smooth af I don't time.

spice spire

The three pull special is what makes halls a wild af dungeon. Deadass tried and couldn’t do it to save my life. But I’m also a shit tank lmfao

Yeah, there’s no safe way to do a halls and time it at a higher level it feels like. The ā€œsafe routeā€ we do is pull the pat, middle two, stair two into left shard

spice spire

#

Halls isn’t safe past 21 if you’re planning to time I feel

#

Especially on tyrannical where bosses take a bonkers amount of time

spice spire
#

That’s actually not bad, you just pull into first boss. Echelon kinda sucks because you don’t pull much into him I feel. Just doing keys for the first time this season tho, so peeposhrug

Im thinking about dedicating 1 necro soulbind for m+ only (matter of laziness). Using bonesmith for raids. Can't really decide between marileth or emeni for m+, any tips that might sway me towards any of them?

spice spire
#

Marileth is the one I use personally

#

Triple potency and Kevin is pretty decent

vestal wren
#

kevin is a good boy

silver fog
#

And what 3x potency are you using? Sudden, Lethal and wps or katar?

spice spire
#

I tend to move toward katar since we do bigger pulls. But if it’s your plaguefalls or whatever, I’ll stay with bone smith.

full tide
#

I think wps has more value

spice spire
#

But for most dungeons I go Katar/Sudden/LP

violet jackal
# balmy condor You just sim with what you have

I can't sim all my equipment and gem options at the same time. So that why I was wondering if there was a ration since the sims are now wanting me to add haste even tho i'm only at 43% crit and some of you are above that number

I have killed sylvanas 16 times in which I was eligible for loot and had a full raid vault every week since launch..... I have yet to see 1 edge of night. Convinced it doesn't exist

balmy condor

You don’t need to sim all your gear and all your enchants and everything at once

violet jackal
#

lol I can only change one piece of gear at a time and then it's a 5+minute wait

balmy condor
#

Ah the no subscription raidbots

Should be able to do more than 1 piece tho

Probably have some replace enchant stuff going on

why does Zoldyck feel underwhelming

fallen arch

Cos it doesn’t

balmy condor
fallen arch
#

Explain yourself Jared

#

I mean, the bigger the pull, the more I love Zoldyck

stray mural
#

maybe i just dont notice it

spice spire
#

Zoldycks feels underwhelming because it’s a mostly unseen buff

#

When you look in the logs of a DB user you’ll see mitigated flesh + Gonzo envenom damage.
As a zoldycks user in m+ all your abilities that are up top are still up top, but just a little more

quaint garden
#

This might be in FAQ and I’m just blind, but the guide on wowhead doesn’t recommend a specific Loa for a zandalari Troll rogue. Any insights or information?

stray mural
#

it probably has to do with my single target ct uptime

#

its lackluster

#

in st i forget i have it

Are you using zoldycks on only ST?

but crit still very good, just a little behind haste at that point

shrewd flume
#

It just feel a bit wierd to play a dot class with like 10% haste and so much crit

balmy condor
#

that's cause sin uses dots to get energy back

#

the dots aren't the damage

Yea, i mean, it feels super slow 😩

considering your dps in dungeons

depends on like

15 things

But ye you should be doing more on fortified usually than on tyrannical

i keep getting grouped with dps that delete packs with cd's

Considering all else stays the same

well then there ya go

some packs my ruptures dont even get refreshed because they die

spice spire

I mean

#

That’s it

You’ve solved the equation

Bigger dps on packs where your bleeds don’t go off = less damage

limber lion
#

Honestly

#

I have no clue how people "feel" legendaries in the first place. All of our best legendaries are super passive. Zoldyck just increases our bleed/poison damage, Doomblade increases our Envenom damage and adds a bleed, Dashing increases poison crit chance

#

How does a legendary "feel good" when you can't even feel the effects on anything else but your Details! dps meter

balmy condor

Hey guys, for MM raiding solo target, you prefer Doomblade, Dashing Scoundrel or Obedience ?

balmy condor

usually dashing

wheat needle
#

And in conduits, you take Maim, Mangle instead of Lashing Scars ? (and what is your second assassination conduit)

balmy condor
#

wps

#

maim is only good with doomblade

#

you should sim yourself to be sure though

grave palm
#

Alright, question. I've been looking at logs, and I see alot of top Assassination rogues running Doomblade/Deathspike as necro instead of Zoldyck in mythic+. Am I doing something wrong? :s.

limber lion
#

Logs?

#

But no, you should be running Zoldyck.

#

Deathspike users are probably trying it out for the memes, but it's nowhere near as good as Zoldyck

#

Doomblade is really only good on some specific dungeons on tyrannical weeks

#

But Zoldyck is a good, safe pick for all dungeons.

fallen arch
#

It’s super meh on bosses unless it’s cleave or u have trash on boss

grave palm

See, one of the big problems Im running into, is my AoE output. I pull consistent damage on single target and usually do fine.

But it's more of a cd split then number tbh.. depends on comp

heady kayak
#

What the heck do i do with vanish if i happen to get priest fairies?

limber lion
#

You just press it once it comes off cooldown

#

You use Vend/Shiv on the boss immediately on the second burn and vanish right after it comes off cooldown without anything

#

You will have to hold your cds a bit in p3 anyways, so that will line it up perfectly

#

So it's not wasted.

heady kayak
#

Do you think its worth it holding Flage for around 10 or so second till it lines with vendetta

limber lion
#

You want to blow your cds on Sylvanas after the veil.

#

In p2?

heady kayak

oh im getting faeries in Soulrender progress

fallen arch
alpine latch
#

If people are excited about getting it, let them be excited

drifting cloud
#

youre completely missing the point as per usual

spice spire
#

It’s still sick that people get it, but I do think people weigh it a bit heavily.

alpine latch
#

Also, EoN is a better OH than a 252 in all 3 specs

spice spire
alpine latch
#

Yeah, not the Normal version

#

Heroic, specifically

#

Heroic and up

#

Getting a normal version feels bad. But you get the juicy xmog

#

So it's still a win

#

xmog is endgame

spice spire
#

But there’s also a lot less of an asshole way to get that point across, pardon the harsh language - actually couldn’t think of a better word to use.

drifting cloud
#

its worth half a socket in OH over a 252

#

insane gains 😐

spice spire
#

Actually let me do a quickie sim and see if 246 is weighed heavier for 6 ilvl ahead than the 233

alpine latch
#

Never said it was insane gains

#

I said it's better

#

I consider a good upgrade to be around the 0.8% or higher upgrade

#

I don't specifically target-farm things unless it's 1% or higher, personally. That's my own personal threshold

spice spire
#

Yeah, I’m actually checking because I’d simmed in the past and it wasn’t. Don’t wanna spread some false info. Granted it’s a basic quickie with little variance on specific 252 dagger, so it’s not absolute. But maybe I’m fried. I’d rather retest and be wrong than continue thinking I’m right in the statement, y’know?

Guys, good afternoon, what would be the ideal status to play with assass in m+, and the best legendary? I'm with venthyr

fiery mauve
#

Zoldyck all the time

spice spire
#

2 shivs 252 vs 252 shiv and 246 EoN is a 22 dps increase for the 246 eon, see I was wrong šŸ˜›

limber lion
obtuse robin
#

increase is more with bs/ds

spice spire
# fiery mauve Zoldyck all the time

Not true actually! It depends a lot on group comp and whatnot, as there are times where you need boss damage and dashing/dB could be the play. Obedience is also good

#

Zoldyck’s is a very good general m+ legendary, but there’s situations where any of the top four could fit. If you’re multi-speccing, obedience is still very good for m+ as the buff does help with AoE damage a bit.

frigid kestrel
visual prairie
#

i will play obedience on dungeons where there are gaps between pulls like spires because it feels like it's off cd for more of the pulls. but constant chainpull like SD, i run zoldyck. i don't use any other for keys.

#

i'm also not very good at keys though.

spice spire
#

Like I said, highly depends on comp. when I run with WW + ele on tyran because they do negative boss damage

#

In general I’d only recommend it for top tho

#

And even then dashing might be the sauce monkascheme

#

But that’s some feelcraft

alpine latch
#

Oh nice! Dashing is finally starting to be better for me in ST. It's up to a 0.7% gain.

#

I guess I need to crank out Torghast and make that finally

spice spire

Sick I need to as well, just get it ready for when I finally rank frost up bearJAM

Do you want garrote + rupturebleed on Single target atleast 8+ seconds before shiving + envenom spam? or whats the best timing

wary ice

You want it up so that you won't have to refresh during shiv

undone eagle
#

yes thats why i ask this good timing

oak moth
#

ob>dashing if venth right? or did i read that wrong

undone eagle
#

because if i have like 7 seconds and i do my shiv + envenom, when my shiv is gone both of my bleeds are 1 second then i have to garrote + mut + rupture,

#

any better tips?

ur necro?

balmy condor

dot 1-2 of them and then pump

undone eagle
#

i do CT + 3x sbs

frank stag
#

I almost still feel like CT would provide higher ST on Soulrender

undone eagle
#

2x sbs = CT when mobs stacked, then 3rd sbs rupture + garrote 1 mob i guess and rest pump soulrender (if hes alrdy bleeding garrote+ rupture)

#

to have that amazing energy flow

yeh

seems reasonable

should be

only sbs or mut + envenom when needed to burst

only 1 is enough? like closeest orb

i lose time if i run to other

just dot whatever is closer

and is it ok if i garrote + rupture before debuff on orb?

obviously sim yourself is the best answer

that trinket is normally really bad

#

the eyes one

#

?

dawn ivy
#

the painsmith tirnket

sorry

if you think that the extra 30 dps or whatever minimal gain it is, is worth losing iron wire

go for it

that sim

not in raidbots

yeah i just remember 34% crit

and laughing/pitying you

balmy condor
#

the amount of combinations of gear with essences and minor essences and corruptions

#

was just insane

#

and azerite

dawn ivy
#

i dont even remember why infexious latched onto 34% crit

balmy condor
dawn ivy
#

like right now crit is a massive focus point for sin

balmy condor
#

he sims himself

dawn ivy
#

and we just sorta throw around 40ish%

balmy condor
#

and then regurgitates his own gear

#

in his 9.0 guide he was like haste > mastery > crit > vers in dungeons

#

as a recommendation

#

and for proof, he legit just put up a picture of his own stat weights

dawn ivy
#

i HATE how bad mastery is

balmy condor
#

just what he does

tacit wedge
#

Full expedient 34% crit Exsanguinate Gladge

its because in "bis" gear most of us had 33-36%

so he just took the middle number
