you're right
50 energy spender but 2 globals are too long to dump before doing your mehcnaics
You never get it when you play rogue 🤔
also true
fair I guess 2 seconds is short enough to delay for most mechanics
I definitely got fragments
then you're not precloaking
and then they dispelled and it went back on me
So I had to run out again
On someone else
you can precloak and only 3 will go out or you can cloak on the way over onto someone else getting dispelled
either way works
Haha that sounds messed up
I'm only 238.81
how is that messed up lol
I literally did 0% ball damage on remnant
Its not messed up you just do a dispell yourself instead of healers, shouldn’t change how the mechanic works at all if your healers have a ui
I guess there isn’t really anything else to cloak on that fight
how
I didn’t swap am I supposed to?
Oh yeah don’t you get energy if they die?
run down the line spamming fok, CT to pad numbers
Are we supposed to dot stuff even if they won’t survive the duration?
they don't die
you dot them asap
and the dot should just tick on them while they're immune
might not last the FULL FULL duration
but it's close enough
Okay makes sense since assassination gets energy from venomous wounds
@balmy condor I heard CTO is good now I saw it on a parse. Care to respond?
runs back to OT

@balmy condor I heard @arctic walrus made it worth it 👀
Had a 49.8% wipe : /
We'll have to get it on Thursday
We took 22.34m of her 24.1m health, hmm
is there some new CTO hidden tech?
Yes run 2 ctos
is fatescribe dead
4%
i dced like 6 pulls so i sat

Goodluck friendo
yes man

Smurfer
what is better for Soulrender with the MFD tech?
Dashing gains value from more dots but so does obde from MFD resets? idk whats supposed to be better
probably obedience
Is there a best way/moment to use the shadowgrasp totem in raid ? Or just on CD ?
on CD
On CD
Can someone explain to me how mfd is suddenly good
I’m a big dummy and don’t understand what changed
Sim optimization
Is it just in raid we generally have easy mobs to reset it and then to make sure you line it up with flag for max stacks
ezpz
I don’t think I’ve ever gotten 30 as ep vig
Always get 29 in opener with MfD
i meant with mfd
when my raid gets to KT I think I'll be sick that week
Idk if I’d be going down or not depends on that I guess
mfd is good either way
on kt in general you can get a ton of resets
mfd is correct on like everything but guardian now
maybe remnant
Agreon you tried on sylv? But you guys play mfd obe or mfd dashing?
Yeah I just don’t know what our timings will be like trying to line up kt remnants and adds dying
BS DS is only +13 for me compared to ep mfd so
gonna be next week until i get 262 obed personally but
What professions do you guys go with ?
i'm thinking probably obed is better for damage on each platform
engineering and anything you want to make money
But doubt it makes a huge diffy
Yea my Obe is like 225 so idk if I’ll bother with it
I mean I use it for sub anyway so idk
Boys, why when I sim myself, it says I should switch my shards domination, like Im using the dyz on helmet and it says I should use it on chest?
obedience is definitely a lot better actually
than dashing
if you can get flag for every platform in p2
I think it's the case will have to check log
i doubt anyone is running obed sin for sylv yet
its probably not
I am
you probably only get 3

each platform is a little under a minut

With mfd resets?
Summoner balls
all the sin rogues that played during rwf
i swear its better on sylv
I am running obe mfd on sylv
it sounds like it is
not on every fight but you have to get so many bonus casts
I’m playing obedience sin😔 feels bad
from sylv
its almost for sure good
I mean all depend of dmg from rest of group
If your group needs the extra dam then obviously it's super good because you have a 1 min cd
p3 would probably depend on timings
like whispyr was saying
most likely it would be stronger if you get an extra cast of flag during your burn
you would have flag for literally each platform
I did the math with jpc during his prog
Y p3 timing are tje same no? She switch platform on %hp or timer?
it was worth
makes sense
it was giga worth
Ok I will stick with that then
like for me right now obed is only -52 on a 5 min ST
the longer the fight goes on the bigger obed gets i think
for some people it sims higher
this trinket should I use everytime on cd, or should I align with vendetta?
always on cd
Yeah idk I think my crit is too high cuz I can't get obed higher than my dashing even with changing gems/enchants
but gonna craft it anywyas to try for certain fights
I'm at 44% crit 19% hast but y depend on profile
why theo ?
cuz its better for me
reroll party favors puts it ahead of nadjia and i prefer the triple pot + umbrella + flat 3% stat to thrill seeker
im guessin u rr till crit
theo growin on me but idk 
why does raidbots always ask me to switch the dom shards when it doesnt matter
.<
it dumb
good good
the ultimate cope sim
to make up for not getting 252 weathered
loot leader gave it to main raider for offspec
s
did u get anything good in ur vault ice
nope got research so i can socket the belt that will never drop from soulrender
im prayin i get another 252 dagger from remmy and the belt lfmao
i cant wait for this sim to tell me to stop simming weathered 239 and go to sleep

lol yeah i'm always simming stuff for no reason thinking it's gonna change anything but in all reality i'm just trying to keep my sanity while we continue to wipe on pain every week and i question my existence in my guild
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
im screaming at how painfully accurate this is
throwback to when i kept simming 6 different rings in hopes the sylv ring would appear in my vault
lol same but with sylv dagger
i cant believe black got the dagger
and then some dude tried buying it from him for me lfmao
Game just wants to keep me playing sin is what it is
that was based as fuck
at this point im sure the dagger wouldnt even be better than a 252 in either hand
im just pissed i havent fkin gotten one
the rings still probs bis
i dont know if i should believe or not
is it worth looking at sidegrades
wait i just realized my ass been simmin with theo this whole time lmfao
Sim is most always right and yeah that chest is what i'm using over heroic sylv chest
Theo probs gonna sim higher than nadj anyways.
it has been for a while but it dosnt feel like it
when i actually run it
even when i roll crit
@rocky pecan https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hE5EbZjAK1Ys9YgxSCKHyA this is with nadjia + obed included for reference
I mean the triple pot with dashing is just good
Lethal poisons specifically
free 500 mastery every now and then isn't too shabby either
ig the 252 chest isnt that good unless i take mfd
im guessin u have ur wps and lashing in the enhanced spots?
all 3 are enhanced on nadjia now
ye but lethal is pretty close in enhanced too i think
idk about theotar
theo is next week
oh right right nadjia did get that this week
hm
theo for m+ gonna be litty titty
or maybe im coping
yeah idk i roll dice for m+
but yeah theo is the play for sin m+ for sure
lethal is too good
i cant wait to make zold ugh.
the command table shittin out soul cinders makes it p easy to get em now. shits like 2 weeks.
that's nice. i haven't been very into the grind lately so the less i have to log on the better. so no cindies for me
idk i just do everything in 2 days come tuesday then log back in monday for last raid day
seems easier to me
getting tier 6 archivist and 4 weeks of 10 keys for slots that had shit in them did me in
also wtf is the point of going so hard if i'm just getting hard walled by my dps guildies trolling the shit out of me anyways
cause its 3 am and im in pain so seeing sims tell me to switch gems makes it even worse
i stepped on glass while trying to chase my dog 
fkin assholes and their broken beer bottles :(
Well seems like chest is def the play over neck
absolutely :(
but we will still sim it for cope
@slow marsh the double door of shadows feels nice kek
I can honestly say I have used door like once in a fight and it was only cuz step was on cd
lmfao. i only ever use it in m+ for cc
or at least whenever i accidently take nadj f
door is pretty good every once in a while on sylv
yeah true actually i use it to skip bridges for sylv
whats the ilvl we can upgrade the world quest gear to lmfao
it has its niche uses. i dont hate it but i found fleshcraft and soulshape to be much more useful
soulshape 
door has more niche usage
i usually use it to reduce downtime e.g. cast it so that i get into range of a enemy just as a void/aoe effect expires
works fairly well on sylvanas heroic first phase
yeah
yeah i use it for like fatescribe bombs or the nine shards and stuff. and yeah sylv veil. most of the time though i end up just realizing i could've just stepped / grapple hooked and been quicker
i tent to use my steps to maximize uptime before that
I think they completely shit the bed with door of shadows as opposed to the other covenant abilities
if it had like no cast time itd be super
like when its good i'm like " heck yeah I actually get to use door" but most of the time i just find other ways to maximize uptime that dont require a 1.5 sec cast
kyrian is not as exciting too
i think it did in beta
even tho its good
kyrian pot is super good just cuz sylv bleed exists
soulshape is just best design wise but we rarely abuse it
Kyrian can be super helpful for some M+ affixes, way better niche than dos
whats kyrians thing again i completley forgot
yes thats what i say, kyrian is good but its not very exciting to use^^
the hs that removes bleeds
ahh
how come mfd gets removed from my bar every time i switch talents >.<
cuz outlaw mfd is technically different
oh
i would probably just create a macro then
oh i can do that? cool
Ye you probs want a mouseover macro anyways so it works out
i mean, most ppl use a macro for mouseover
uh im new idk what yall mean by mouseover
im guessin like you dont gotta click it?
should work:#showtooltip /cast [@mouseover, exists, harm][@Target] Marked for Death
nope
i can click it with no issue
Oh thats nice
9.1.5 will solve the macro situation for gate
Yeah thank god
I right click gates just fine personally
I never seem to be able to do that
I understand why people have a hard time with it for sure
I guess maybe just all the league of legends has led to having decent cursor control so i dont have much issue clicking it
it doesnt matter sometimes
tbh
if theres too many people crowding a gate you cant click it
yes
true which is why i'm glad they are doing the toy thingy. I dont use the macro now cuz i use focus tricks
ye a macro is the safer way
xiceblades
r u down for some games
I do too in m+ but that's almost never needed in raids?
if you don't want to have it cast on your target with no mouseover you can remove the @target from the 2nd []
Sure i'm always down but i'm about to go to bed rn lol
was this right?
i remember it being a big problem in nyalotha
yeah ive heard on carapace it was big
For me i've had more issues with aggro on pull vs clicking lock portal so
true
thats what i do
i don't remember a encounter that had it as relevant as carapace
If I ever miss a gate then I'll swap to focus gate macro just for you
Would that make you happy
i would say, its worth to keep the macro in mind in case you run into issues
but with 9.1.5 providing a better option its probably 
your group is probably just good at not standing directly on the gate
like if i was doing some nutty off the platform lock gate tech to skip painsmith balls in rwf then yeah sure
macro is /focus [@mouseover, nodead, exists]
But yeah my group does remind people not to stand directly on gate so there's that too
interact with mouseover?
i am here brothers and sisters
pog
sylv dagger not even gonna mean shit anymore
ima get it after gettin another 252 weapon 
I have double 252. I want sylv dagger for outlaw 
sylvanas dagger is a bigger deal for subtlety
it's like +30 in OH for sin
it might go up a hair with mfd idk i haven't simmed it yet
but yeah it's like + 150-200 on my outlaw
so do i wanna full send mfd off cd except for when flags about to come up
cause idk if i should spend the combos in enven or if rupture bouta run out
if a reset is coming up you can hold for that too
sometimes i find myself with rupture bouta expire but mdf up so
this was the Carapace macro thing iirc:
Step 2: Bind the mouse hover interact: game menu -> key bindings -> targeting -> interact with mouseover```
it doesnt matter what you spend cp on with mfd
Whisp's rules were MfD on cd unless flag is in 15
its just a generator
resets definitely break that rule if you can get like 3 of them off
someone was talking about being a slight gain to hold mfd for shiv but i dont know if it ended up being worth it
not for a long wait though
ive been playing it the past 2 days
it lines up really well
like every chain set and add set
and you normally get multiple resets each time
I played it the hour it became a thing in soulrender and was immediately vibing with it
first fight i played it on was fatescribe which also lines up really well
my only issue i've had is not being able to prio finisher before stuff just dies to get multiple resets
went from 49% haste to 44 after switchin chest piece 
probs had too much crit
crit*** not haste lfmao
49% haste oh my god
Yeah I have 46% crit and like 17/18% haste
i have 41/21
Again shit vault.... Demn
rip
The 46.7something i have is real nice when i roll party favor crit
but never complaining about free 3% haste either so
for sure
bouta try mfd on the nine im guessin we use it on the mini add lmfao
if possible for sure
yeah you always want to use mfd on stuff that will be dying quickly
does it matter which weapon enchant i have on mh/oh
No
thanks!

rank frost 5 + the 40% crit or rank 5 unholy fulll haste +rest
I’m gonna say frost because frost is way better for sin
But I have no clue what the question is I’m gonna be honest
well before we swapped to the frost build most of us where unholy gemmed
on rank 5 with full haste + other stats wud it be better or is the 40% crit +frost stull dealing more
It’s dealing…..
A TON more
Like a silly amount more
People went unholy before frost got buffed by literally FIFTY percent m
Do i get a 252 dagger ? or go for unholy 3 set?
I have no shards for unholy nor frost yet.
so that ill have to get during the raid ronight.
any tips?
currently rocking 242 daggers
i wud says 252 dagger loot of raid can be traded
Yeh I would take the dagger and just wait till you get a frost set
tnx
top gear is broken for domination pieces or something? i have non-dom head and top gear is showing dps loss or 0 gain vs 252 dom head with blood shard while gear compare gives me 50dps every time
It works fine
You just need to select the gems you want to sim and press the "replace existing gems/enchants" button.
i did and i lost 1782 dps lol
Then you did it wrong
yeah i must have, i picked that head from vault, sharded in and it works fine now
Losing 1782dps is almost certainly set bonus being lost by options selected
Does anyone know if its not possible to get Edge of Night out of the Vault as an Assa Rogue ?
Got third Sylvanas dagger in a row from Great Vault. While the KT shoulders aren't dropping since the 9.1 started 
That's crying on the highest level 🤣 
We are at 8/10M and i deliberatly go to the bench on most rekills so i can have 3 HC Vault Slots, 5 Week in a Row, still nothing.
you could open it as outlaw
That's actually a good idea. But I would risk getting a one-hand instead. 🤔
nothing wrong with that
Outlaw actually has a bigger loot pool, so if you're aiming to solely get the shoulders, then you should loot as Assa/Sub instead.
yea since u have 3 onehanded weap
thats correct :/
Marginal, but still a DPS gain 
@limber lion what were u up to now
No clue honestly, haven't played/simmed myself in a while
guys i still have my 262 doomblade from the start of the patch since it was my first 262
still super good for raids?
do i still go frost?
im NL not venthyr btw
Doomblade and frost are still the main picks for Necrolord
You can sim Dashing Scoundrel to see if it’s an upgrade though
The best answer would be to sim yourself. But as NoTrickz already said - DB + Necro + Frost is really good and should be enough. 😄
Better luck to get sylv dagger as sin loot spec or sub loot spec? It's same amount of loot but who know someone already tried 🙏?
No difference
Same loot table
Hey guys if i use dashing scoundrel is it worth using ambush from stealth or should i still open with mutilate?
u dont open with ambush like ever
if nothing has changed
but @balmy condor can tell u if im wrong
u pretty much ignore that keybind unless its a blindside proc
Only use ambush from blindside procs if you play that
but i mean it doesn't put a bleed on the target anymore since im not using doomblade so i get double the dmg with same energy and cp
mutialte and ambush give both 2 cp
the reason u open from stealth with a mut isnt a doomblade proc
mut crits give upto 4cps
u know
and with Ma
u should only mut not ambush
ambush on blindside proc only I think
I confirm ambush is used only on pvp scenario or blindside procs
ye
Pvp as assa?
well no confirming needed
but isn't it the seal fate passive that gives you cp and not the mutilate crit? so if i crit with ambush im not getting 4 cp
if u use some logic
mut uses both weapons
no ambush dosent work
Even in pvp ambush isn't used as assa afaik
ok so ambush cause one weapon with crit max 3 cp
ok got it thanks for helping
yeah so u just use it from blindside procs
Hahahahahahaha
Awesome
GMs always listening
Oooh so that’s the secret
I did it guys
I parsed #1
... for assassination...
On Guardian... heroic... for heals... lmfao
👑 you dropped this king
Lol 😆 love you guys
I spy an @slow marsh on that list too
I don't have any r1 healing parses :'(
have you tried healing more?
Have not actually
Cev too busy unethically pumping to heal
Crimson vial on CD
Only way to play
i got all my good healing parses before the masses played frost lol, too saturated now

Why do I have a bandana next to my name
new disc feature

Anyone have any advice for a sin rouge on mythic KT? Should I use vendetta when I go down in the fight or save for boss
Depends on your comp really
Do you need extra damage when you down?
If so then use if not then hold
Your answer might change as you get closer to killing it as well
assa really isnt that great at anything on kt other than killing remnant
so youll probably just be a remnant killing bot
also depends on strat but i guess going slow is trolling nowadays
so youll have to hold cds every time
I wonder if sub could actually be sick with funnel damage up top to switch prio if needed
nah, 1 pull mobs are spread and another just on top of each other, way too inconsistant
Like I asked my guild where they wanted it they told me “the better target” but the timing seems to be fine using top or bottom so if this is the case should I save for boss vendettas for lust?
mega depends...
do you go on last remnant?
how many people go there
do they use cds
how fast do the mobs outside die
also the dps on kt last phase is mostly irrelevant
it just flops
kt is one of those bosses you cant just blindly copy some else, you have to think and adapt
Currently we have 2 hunters 2 warriors a rogue and boomy go down with 1 healer
well you asked for last one, thats overkill for it
Our boomy blows frenzy and it dies
on last one you want to overkill it and be able to stop so you go out for good timing
and its only 20%
yea just use it
Because I get a full vendetta in either way so for prog what’s better
its vendetta
you have to fiddle around the dps
do the warriors use? do the hunters?
I think everyone going down atm is using some burst cd
well, make yourself the constant and always use vendetta
you and boomy should always use
hihi for vent do i hold flag for vend or just let it go
I’ll figure it out when we are deeper in pulls closer to kill timings just want to know for a prog perspective
sub is further ahead on boss damage than assa
on KT
assassination suffers from having a 20s cd duration on that fight and if you get bad tank add spawns it's kinda whiffed
so likely end up saving for phylacterys
unless you are allowed to hit boss
thanks i thought i didnt see it
np, its in the covenant abilities area
ok im blind.. thanks alot!
how good is 252 decanter of anima-charged winds in m+ environment?
only mythic boots from The Nine (running hc version atm). Although its 3rd boss so im eventually going to get them from reclears
Can some1 give me a general rule of thumb about how spend my energy correctly ?
That’s an FAQ/guide question
Sorry
Never cap is the general rule
You aren’t wrong but also I won’t tell you you’re wrong at 4:30 in the morning xD
would it be worth to evenom at 3CP last second of the flag windows to get 3 more stack ?
Yeah that’s fine
aight ty 🙂
You tell me I’m wrong all the time 
that's because you are

you know, same
but after a month of vaults where I took tmog options twice and research once
Rude
I just accept my fate
oh yeah didnt notice mb 

Can anyone take a look at some logs?
Many can, link the juice papi
quick scan of everything looks fine
no wasted CP
rotation seems fine
was it a scuffed kill?
Two things I see are very max-min-y. On your last flag, I’d have held vendetta for it as it’s a slightly higher damage output and you’d have not missed a flag cast. This isn’t a normal rule; for every encounter; however, guardian kills are very easy to anticipate kill timers.
Secondly, you missed a second pot
why are DPS dying to sunders? 
seems like it was an unlucky amount of crits on frost
tbh
everything else is fine
Yeah there’s nothing that’s like
“Yeah you really fucked up here dude” that I can see
Yeah for sure, will just save flag for every vendetta i think next time
DO NOT. Lol
Just the one
yeah don't do that just send it
and pray for crit on set frost
Because mixing them is good, but if you do it every time - you miss flag casts
the dif between my 92 and your parse is legit 800dps
so pray
Which is worse than not lining them
and I had 53% crits with frost
to your like 25%
that's essentially the difference tbh
just unlucky rng by the looks of it, nothing you did wrong
plus pepega performance by some of your raid members
2 classes with immunities dying to sunders 
Alrighty thanks appreciate it

dif between you and the other rogue for example @reef herald is he had 50% crit on frost
you most likely would've smoked him if you had 50% crit on your frost procs
100% I was looking to
So what you're saying is, rngesus effs me outside of weekly vault too
That and legendary diff. But you’d have run it had he not. Iirc your wins was like 947 and his was 1700
pretty much yea
Correct

He’s very fond of you rn
this and try not miss second pot
Ah crap true, so lineup final flag, second pot and pray for rng got it
All good :)
Yessir
sacrifice a mage to rngesus
They prefer boomies 
that's what I did last tier and I've been pumping since
made a fire mage quit raiding and I was rewarded
0 ball damage on painsmith and tank damage on the boss
again, I refuse to apologize
well i made a main tank rage quit mid prog so im better than you
🇬🇳
lies, deception
"Aren't you the MT and raid leader?"

we're just doing the dirty jobs y'all don't want to do
why would you want to raid on monk
because I hate myself
I forgot to switch out dashing in a top 21
I've had a toxic person in every guild I've been in.
Last expansion I transferred to an Alliance guild that I had alts in to raid Dazar'alor (and I'm still in) and there was this snotty better-than-you guy that was honestly below average at the game but he acted like he was a big community figure or something. In Ny'alotha he ragequit and spent the entire rest of the expansion looking for anyone in our guild in Boralus and /spit them. Even continued to do it in Oribos in Shadowlands. Ever since they removed the emote we haven't had a sighting so idk if he xferred or just gave up trying.

yeesh
Funny enough there was a guy in Stormwind a few months back that was in a guild called <___ Spitter> (I don't want to call people out, iodk if it's against the rules) and he had a "/e spits on you" macro set to Shadowstep.
before I get painted as a toxic individual like @spice spire wants, I'll make it clear I never openly flame people
i'd wanna be like that guy
just like that cursed wake he brought me to, I didn't flame them openly
just in whispers to @spice spire
He was Sub so he had double SS so you'd see the emote in chat so much, lol
We thought it was this other guy but turns out it was just some guy that really liked spitting
Even more toxic tbh
I hate you
Looking to down H Sylvanas tomorrow and get a dagger so I can eat a piece of paper
Can I wear your bandana mister? Plz
yes 

I'm not a fan of most headgear in-game. The only helms I use are Engineer goggles because they're kickass
^ yes
And at this point I have a pair of goggles for any set I could want, regardless of color
Only non-goggles I would want is the LFR crown from Opulence, I should get some people to help me.
I'm not original 
Ah, I killed the conversation.

Lol, I was using the green orb grapple thing to get to the Vault of Secrets and a Boomie was on the other side waiting. I Cloaked and threw my Gravimetric Scrambler Cannon at him and he bonked close to a Stygian Bombarder and died
Have you made yourself some shadowlands goggles yet? That’s what I’ve been rocking.
I want the Zandalari and Legion ones 
What is this for a set?
?
Sorry was forget to answer tje picture from ashkitten
Ooh
Shoulders are looking badass
Damn thanks for that im NL 😭
I think you can still get them as a drop but someone that’s Venthyr has to spawn the mob for you
Question...does Exacting Preparation make only stones and oils 20% or is it Celest and Sinful aswell?
Looks like the tool tip says enchants as well
makes me wonder..
Is that a DK ability? Wrong chat yo xD
Venth soulbind trait 🙂
Maybe worth trying out? 20% is big on the agi proc if it works like it reads
Sim it
in the works now
exacting prep is pretty dogshit
Sorry for the late reply, needed pb sammiches 
Yeah, I've crafted every single googles possible, been Engineering since I started way back in Wrath
is that worth to us MfD instead of Vigor guys?
you can sim it
ye i simmed it is 120 higher
sounds worth it to me
if you don't mind adopting mfd gameplay, its worth
whispyr compiled a short list on how to use it in the pins
Heck yeah I stay healer parsing
Was getting purple parses for healing with my r4 Frost set
just gotta equip a r5 for 🍊
Vitamin C?
is it normal to waste cp with seal fate? trying to work on learning how to review my logs
Was also hovering under 30% crit
My healing parses 
Yea that’s normal
We don’t really play around Seal Fate procs when generating
If you get lucky and go to 3 cp in 1 mut, you mut again. If you get lucky and get 4, you use a finisher.
okay thank you
When necro you use SBS during gemstone windows in ST if using heirmir.
In cleave you do play around the extra cp you’d get.
I have never once in my life played sin to cleave

The only thing this spec is good for is boss damage

yikes
and falling asleep pressing two buttons on aoe
4 buttons
sub?
I just don't like sub, I play outlaw, I have no problems swapping
Sin in 2-3 target cleave is insane
think sin aoe is way less sleep gaming than sub
sin is great, you don't need to play sub if you don't like it
spec diffrences in raid are irrelevant usually
I have no problem keeping up bleeds on multiple targets I'm just going to play outlaw in true cleave scenarios
the nine is one of my better personal fights
Simply saying the correct usage.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
in m+ subs niche might be handy if you push rly high keys, but if you don't 
Yeah I'm doing plenty well on it, but I mean it's just abusing a mechanic that will be gone next patch which I hate
ho ho ho is that all your swashbuckling can accomplish
With a 246 mainhand and a 233 offhand yes
You can play subterfuge on that fight if you want to try something spicy
after the x week of killing that boss
real question, I hit every optimal M+ vault item that I could, do i keep doing 10 keys a week to try to hit tretiary stats on those same items 🤔
ignore difference I 100% fucked up the pull I played subterfuge
Never tried that tbh
completely fucked my opener
is it worth to play 1xEoN 246 at Mythic Sylva fight?
yeah you should
20% speed here i come 
u mad man ninja
oh my bad i misread that, i wouldnt personally do 10 keys a week if i had full bis m+ "stat" gear at 252
balanced as all things should be
do you not ambush with subterfuge?
does mfd work on remnant orbs?
You wish
My instinct says no since I dont think it refunds bone spikes
also they dont die
they go friendly
KT adds
ok good
or maybe thats sbs
painsmith balls are fine because they die
I think KT adds get desummoned or some shit idk
maybe they fixed it but it didnt work a few weeks ago
i think it works on kt adds
the soul

fatescribe adds work too right?
and the small adds
I know bone spike doesnt refund from tank adds
do you use rupture on remnant orb or is garrote enough?
they die too fast in my raid
if you drop 2-3 point ruptures you make a ton of energy off venemous vim
11dps diff between epvig and bsds :o
you can pretty much just use any combo of talents at this point I have sims with master poisoner, subterfuge, mfd, deeper strategem, EP, vigor, all within 50-100 dps of each other on straight patchwek and Im sure they would have minor variances based on fight play style, just sim it out as best as you can
i heard last night that you are supposed to dot them while they're immune
Yea you do
Thats fine
For energy
at Nathria it was 250 dps diff for me, now it s just so close it just confused me xD
I think they fixed it so it refunds from tank adds
yeah my bad just seems crazy to dump a 4 cp rupture into a ball thats taking like 1 damage
I know kel thuzad and sylvannas I have so much fun chucking about 30 bone spikes throughout the whole fight
each
shit dies too fast on heroic for me to do that and we havent reached mythic yet
painsmith should be dead soon though
for mythic remnant are rogues always outside manevolence?
que
sometimes you arent
You dump CPs depending on how long it will live
whenever the boomkin gets it im "close"
I basically never do it
or warrior im "close"
you do it for the energy gains, not necessarily the damage
Its a free energy battery
oh wait we talking painsmith balls?
Nerzhul
remnant
wait you still do it for painsmith ball because its an energy reset
is it possible to even maintain 4 garrotes
no
2 I think? 3 maybe
It just seems really tight
Not much play so to speak so you wouldn't be pandemic'ing them
You can have 4 no? Assuming they’ve hit them all in pandemic (ofc you need more time than most situations in the current raid allow)
It would take you 24 seconds to apply 4 with 18 second durations
you apply the first, then at 6 seconds you apply the seconds, then at 12 you apply the third, then at 18 you apply the fourth at the same time the first drops
you only get 3
pandemic has nothing to do with it
I was saying it wasn't possible because of the time constraints, just worded it weirdly lol
NOW
Yea makes sense im dumb
If night fae ability had stayed how it was back in beta
Maybe something with a subterfuge build
But I dont think currently that you get subt benefits from the pseudo stealth
Yeah true
Possibly just me though with my current stat balance but I have plenty of sim builds without MA at all
doing more or equal damage
Most likely from Necrolord crit gem talent and sitting close to 45% crit already
Do we pool before flag or just vendetta/shiv and are we supposed to try line shiv up with flag?
If you don’t lose usages lining up is ideal
So on a patchwerk fight you’d line up your final usage
Sylv prog tonight o/ any tips boyz ?
Alright! Do you pool before flag?
Pool and Max -1 CP before you flag
Also You can hold Shiv if it’s within 10 seconds of Vendetta/Vanish only
Other then that you Shiv on CD no questions asked
Don't die to swirlies/rive and watch veil timings before using cds
P2 if you're running the mfd build you can throw a flag at the 1st platform and have it come up late on plat 2 but it desyncs vendetta and flag on the boss so its iffy on whether to use it or not (assuming your cds are assigned to be used on sylv in p2)
Okay but vendetta is 20 active seconds so wouldn’t shiv make it into the vendetta window? Or is it because master assassin benefits off shiv?
Yeah, we are at a early sylv prog too, I'll ask to let me only cd sylv and st in Lts in p2
I'm considering going CT instead of PB to help P1 and p2 prog
We will see
Not worth imo
Let other classes that have better aoe go aoe spec and you focus on st
The latter, because Vanish and Vendetta will always line up
That is true
Okay thanks!
You can cloack the raining swirlies on P1 and avoid the dot, you can cloack waves in p2 and avoid the dot, p3 idk
If you're close to intermission I would recommend saving cloak and running to a far away chain and using it there, you won't take damage from the aoe burst and your chain damage doesn't stack @tribal mauve
Hi I had a question regarding raiding legos. I read thr faq and wowhead guide. I see that it mentions doomblade and dashing scoundrel are pretty close, but sims seem to favor doomblade, but the raid breakdown shows most rogues using dashing scoundrel. I'm just curious about the variance. I'm guessing that the reason doomblade is higher is because in sims it can get perfect uptime while in most raiding scenarios the poison ticks just are more reliable. So I'm just wanting to make sure to craft thr correct lego as I'm starting a rogue alt
You see most using dashing at the top end as it interacts well with our best dom gems, frost
At the moment, dashing is a bit over Doomblade; however, if you check #assassination-faq it’ll answer a bit more in depth about all of your legendary questions
Along with some sims 🙂
Oooooh I see. I didn't even take dom sockets and bonus into account
Woah woah woah
Quake is being helpful?
I've only been gone like a week man .. what happened to you?
Wdym
I only troll the homies
Im helpful to everyone new, as we’ve all been there 
And try to be helpful to those who are asking the real questions 🥺
can someone help me I'm a bit of a dumbass when it comes to sims
but I want to sim to see if I should use oil on mainhand and such
!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
would MFD still benefit me on partiocular bosses even if it simms lower currently
