a lot of 246 phials in armories
Yeah phial is OP even at 246 will upgrade it tomorrow if I don’t get it in the vault
Now that I moved from main to alts, i'm upgrading my 210 I got last week in my rogue to try it on
Nice man
i think i was at 11 or something
Pain
Got like this last week, later i'll check my vault
is that an m+ setup with zoldyck?
didn't know a thing till yesterday of Sin frost crit build
am I too wrong?
nah i was just curious
because for raid we dont play a leggo on legs 🙂
looks good to me
I have a 225 doomblade on hands from previous season
getting research to get a Scoundrel leggo recipe and look for domination gear an sockets
ah nice
almost 40% crit without using a crafted 230 ring on my bags yet
waiting for something nice from vault tonight
When you’re Necrolord 

^PepeMom
i miss the copium of necro being better ST than venthyr
best rogue cov
Imagine having all 4 covenant abilities simultaneously
when we get domination weapons, and we can combine covenant ability with a different signature and a soulbind from a different one
Not joking, I mean it well
Imaging being able to use Nadjia with Thrill and necroskill
id have wanted the nine spear to be a bit bigger
EON, Bow, Kt both wpns
i meant like them having effects and stuff in general
yeah id be happy if we get another dagger next tier that just has a generic effect
visually theyre mostly ok i guess
oh yeah, the fist too
Totally agree, I mained fury all bfa and treasured my cut of death more than all my other gear. Something to play with besides raw stats just adds the right flavor
although I also think they shouldn't just come back and do it next tier
its only special if its rare
i heard/read theories of us getting domination weapons next major patch 
yea we get artifact weapons broooo

pretty sure they'll ditch the domination stuff in 9.2
get some new kind of borrowed power
Hopefully a real set bonus
yeah, pretty sure of it too
im at ilvl 240, crit 38%, Haste 22%, mastery 24% vers 4%, is there something i should rework?
Yea rogue is ruined think you need to delete and remake
yeah work around getting higher ilvl (while simming upgrades)
100% crit and go next
so my stats arent complete fuck up then, yeah im working on my ilvl , rogue is just an alt so i havent givinen him too much love yet
ilvl is the only real thing to care about tbh
got my frost dom bonus atleast
pog
I care about you 
but the korthia leech/avo gear is bae tho
Bleedy poison pals, how did you make out with your vaults?
I have an Ocarina with +50 avoidance you can have
h sylv ring for me @stray mural
Pretty sick! Slap a socket in it?
LOL
I need KT shoulders, sylv chest, and dagger. It’s the only reason why I keep doing heroic skip runs.
i need new content
ay dude, some nonsense is occuring on fatescribe where a lack of venthyr boomies has got rl considering options
i ve just checked, i think there are litteraly 0 logs playing zoldyck both in hc and myth
oh is that something you can check
how do you look up by lego
13.6k
whispyr how the guide going
the magnifying glass on the right, at the bottom
after digging into logs some more zoldycks is off the table 
actually, its a bit fucky, but you can sort every zoldyck log by umbrahide leggings id
and bc you craft on legs only DS and Zold, its easy enough for it
ah nah it filters every page separately, so you ll have to manually scroll through everything to the end, idk what am i doing
M rem dagger/H sylv dagger or should i still farm H sylv every week for the H dagger? and double them up
@balmy condor or anyone that knows, can you do the deathly shadows vanish buff for sin like you can with sub?
no
It does not
it's sub only
yeh
used to work for all 3
but then they "fixed" it
problem is
it's a different spell id for sub
than the other two
so it got fixed for sin/outlaw
and the sub spell id didn't get touched
cause they forgot I guess
oh?
nice
And soon I'll be able to make it into my second 262 lego
good luck bro
Now to figure out how in the heck I'm going to track the crit buff
Hmm, somehow mine doesn't
True
who's do you recommend I import?
What
the heck
Winds of winter at rank 4 straight up just beat all of the anima powers I had, including erratic Howler
In 2 weeks of raiding I managed to ditch pretty much all my 239 pvp gear filled with versa, and now have 235 ilevel but with 38% CRIT, 23% haste, R3 frost set and all shard pieces, including a 236 vial that my friends and I went to get just now from a M16 (made my boomy go feral loot, he got it for me). Life is good. My HC logs still suck tho :(
Yea ofc gear matters
But there is no substitute for reps with your spec and learning the fights
in a m+, not much, on a 3 minute tarragrue, probably a lot more
ye wondering abt st
question for you boys
raid team is doing the md strat on nerzhul
why does shadowstep not work everytime?
when im getting md?
i got it
you can stand pretty close to the inside person
its like it doesnt register the button hit
make sure you press shadowstep before you get knocked off the platform
if your model is off the platform it doesnt work iirc
been trying
Had to pug Heroic, guild was a no-go
ahhh so being right on the edge is a no go lol
yeah you ideally want to be a little closer to the middle
thanks man
should i hold cds to line up with unholy set bonus for fate?
or would that be troll
sorry I'm an outdated unholy user
Troll
Okay lolol
very troll
if you are pulling a chain on soulrender and you cloak while holding the chain does it break the chain?
I don't think so
it does not
Trying to parse without guardian trink, sylv daggers, and 249 ilvl while 18manning does NOT feel fun
multispec freakazoid rogue

i will master all 3 specs, and unite the hidden leaf village

shut up
water, earth, fire, air

multispec god gaming
hi

hey um


what's wrong? 😦
you ain't lookin' for a guild are you
ruh roh

hate to break it your missing a balance druid too
yeah
we are missing that too, sorta
even with boomie added i can't find a single sylv kill w/o monk/holy pal
just be the first, make history
lol
don't see it happening
they're talking about switching a 250 sub rogue for his heroic geared ww
or a 250 resto druid for heroic geared h pal
we're barely meeting the check in p1, so they're assuming we won't meet the check in p3

252 salvaged fusion amp
we did it
we had 8 melee in the fight and the only drop was for the tank in dps spec :)
@ebon notch I have a new strat
Have you been running mfd on sylv whisp?
I don't play sin
I only play sin to degenerate heal logs
yeah
Bro
mfd seems banger
its super banger
Haven’t pulled the boss once with vigor
In p1 I basically only press it for pull, and flag (obv) and I just hold it for adds
I don’t necessarily follow the 15 second hold rule
any NA horde have turnip that I could borrow for a couple minutes
Because I get multiple resets per chains and per sentinels
i think i do whispyr
yeah its worth
but if its like 20s to the next set i would send it on boss
let me check rq
@balmy condor i have the turnip
where u need it
in maw
ok
Are you testing healing strat
I am
healer degeneracy
i can go to korthia??
PeepoLeave
@balmy condor add me or say where to meet
dm char name
Friend just got his 3rd mythic Edge of night
i got mine 2 weeks ago xD
3 upgrades left
Tell me about it. I'm also still rocking normal kt shoulders
got the hand 2 times in 3 vaults, and 1 time on 1 boss loot (out of 3* 3 boss) 
yo guys,is simming dslice for assa a good choice? never played it in m+ and wanna try it out
pretty much yeah
whats the benefit of 2nd sylvanas dagger? double finisher dmg? tooltip doesnt say anything but sims 26dps higher than normal 246 dagger
I cant remember exactly but I think its double damage
might be double proc rate
not positive
its possible that a higher level main hand sims higher than double daggers though
all my daggers are 246 unfortunately, i dont have any other choice in vault but i dont want to lose too much crit
what stats shoud i craft my zoldycks with if its only for m+
I still went crit haste on mine but crit mastery could also be a good choice
either way is probably fine
got ya,i ll sim it and check,thanks for the feedback
no matter which one you craft, you can probably get the stats on other gear
so don't sweat it too much
Yesterday me and my guild managed to down painsmith and guardian HC (yes we started proging last week). Weird enough we wiped 3 times in painsmith and around 7 on guardian
I now call him sniper. Because the amount of times half my raid died to the beam...
We also found a soaking strat for guardian using only 2 members. A fire mage and a frost mage, frost would ice block near the tanks, get hit by both soaks, then fire then frost again. Amazing way to do it really
yeah, on mythic you do something very similar but 3 players have to immune in the soaks
cloak works too 🙂
Doesn't that soak involve a physical damage part aswell? That's why I didn't soak
the swirly one is the physical one
the yellow circle is a group arcane soak
that one is tank mechanic
you just let the tank get hit by the brown one then walk in during the orange 2
but in heroic whatever you squad is doing should be great
How do you guys handle CD-timings on Painsmith? We're currently progging, but it feels a bit awkward with the balls spawning in vendetta and every shiv-window if used on CD
Tried waiting for after balls as well, but then I often get traps in shiv-windows etc
i havent noticed that really
vendetta is usually ending when the balls spawn
at least on pull
then shiv kinda depends i think
Yee, I mean, it's only 3-5 seconds of vendetta afaik
so not the worst
Shiv is worse however, if I use it on vendetta on pull it comes up 1-2 sec before next balls spawn
probably just send it then swap to ball and swap back
Ye, alright - that's basically what ive been doing - just felt a bit wasteful
ye
Have been using shiv a few times on balls in p2 to get em down quicker as well - should I ever do that?
We all really thought this one still had a physical component to it... #fail.
probably not, since the balls rarely live for a full 9 seconds
Maybe just FoK to spread dots aka increase your frost set dmg? Atleast that's what I did
anyone able to explain how come the sylvanas chest is simming as a 43 dps gain in droptimizer but as a dps loss in quick sim?

enchant
6 weeks of hc clears and sylvanas kills finally paid off
Gratz!
Trinket and dagger in one vault sadge
12 weeks no dagger
Raid vault no good but M15 had a haste Critical ring 252 with socket (the one from top i believe). I can finally upgrade my 200ilvl one!
can anyone just tell me how i can do non critical strikes out of stealth with MA used+ 51% crit with stats? o.O
thats 101% out of stealth+ 3 sec after and i still get normal hits with my mutilate
nani show log
Ditto
atm just wondered in torghast doing kinda funny stuff with with volatile flesh and it did a normal hit with 0.5 sec left on MA. I only got a short clip of it not a log. for logs i need to take look @ the last raid logs
thats the ms it just hit
and thats the normal hit
i think it cant crit
sure i can
same as kel trink and rack
*it
Because MA affects our abilities
Not necro shield explosion, it was just unlucky rng
MA say's your critical strike chance is increased by
so the tooltip should be wrong
The legendary or the talent?
talent
the leggo is dead since 9.1
with the legendary your right that was the nerf in 9.0.5 i think
It’s probably whitelisted to just our abilities if I had to guess
^
afaik the talent has always only worked with our abilities
Yep
If that worked I’m pretty sure we’d all be using our damaging trinkets during the window.
Yeah and timing it around winds
Flesh craft is not considered as a rogue ability but as a shammy ability since they can cast it while moving without being kick?
Would be poopoo
that might be because of emeni
In arena nah
I was Hella asleep
Because they re playing mari I can garanty
Tell me the strat when you're up
They just do their buff that allow them to cast while moving and not being able to get kicked. The tooltip talk about sham abilities only and apparently flesh craft is one of them
well
Nobody said blizzard was consistent
Yeah blizzard’s tooltips are notoriously inconsistent
i feel like the tooltips are 💩
You’d feel correctly
Ye. Dogshit.
Can someone look at this log. its the 18,2 strat of the eye. Can't break past this general number
as i said with MA: your critical strike chance is increased by 50% there is nothing about only your abilities
1st take 5 cp's to instant use rupture on the abductor's.
2nd you and rly dont wanna use envenom on the abductor
Why Envenom the abductor? Just DoT it and pump boss
only bleeds+refresh on abductor and use shadowstep to dodge the lazor
sorry brainfail
pump boss->pump eyes> only dots on non primary targets
with shadowstep you land frot left of the boss
i am using shadowstep, ive also cloaked a lazer too
do you pool energy before using shiv?
theres just a bit of down time going left to right... waiting for timer to tick away for debuff we get. i feel like everyone just runs right in while i sit back and wait
yes i pool
It depends when you go over, if it's right after a stack is applied it takes longer to drop them (but also if the eye takes a while to die you can't really control that). But you can go hit the other eye, just make sure you and the tank are max melee from each other
so basically i should start going over earlier than its called to switch so that my debuff drops first so i can start attacking right away
imo
My much shorter kill had more garrotr/rupture casts than yours, so the best thing to do is focus on multi dotting the adds and making sure you keep 100% uptime on the boss
Maybe not. We always go over right as white swirls spawn so we dodge them as we take the chain. If you go early you might spawn a swirl where people land
meh i hate that side switching tac in this fight 😦
But even if the stacks refresh, as long as you don't collide with the tank/healer you're fine. You can be max melee behind the eye and be ok
Yeah it kinda sucks for logs, but I do alright and don't particularly care for them. Just the way we started doing it and cba for people trying to do the other way, have no trust :p
Maybe i can just start on the otherside and wont have to worry about switching lol
Yeah but then you’re taking hella damage
I kinda gabagool’d into mythic eye last night. I think a large part of it is the 18-2 strat, the group I’m with still did the swap strat, which kind of sucked.
Yeah but the other rogue was ridiculously higher. Soo it still should work fine
Identical-ish kill times, played like garbage, r4 frost, and couldn’t vendetta the lust phase since the boomy convoked the eye I had to match. Still about 800 up, with 200 more energy gain, I wasted about 300 less energy,
When you do swap are you using movement abilities to get their ASAP (obviously after buff falls off)
played like garbage 
Bruh I just kinda wung it no strat no shot
Wasted almost 50 CP mostly through seal fate and sbs 
Wasn’t meant to be a shot, more of a, somethings up. Play on kriz’s end seems better
And with higher winds damage 
Flex lol
Its gotta be a down time thing overall
I was above 10k on the nine and died at the end.. was mad cuz i was ahead
Had half of the fragments on the nine. Way more fun on mythic though 
you can pre cloak fragments if you are going to pop cds
what always cucks is the double shield
as you watch all cds become available
and then have to hold for like 20s
Wait until fatescribe and you get every inner rune
That’s the real fun
You sit there with coolies up like “guess I’ll just go fuck myself”
That’s my heroic experience too lmfao
This raid is actually miserable
why are you popping cds in intermission? 😛
Just like I blasted Scott in that email and got in trouble
True

Ye
“My b I’m used to just blasting and telling people to git gud, I disclosed this in my application”
The damage portion does
okay
As sin you want just one, probably OH
so having a hc and a mythic at same time is fine it doesntoverride?
It’ll stack the damage part on both
I’ve never tried the 18-2 strat. I kinda like the split and plant strat
18-2 is worse, just not by any metric that matters
for rogue both are probably same shit
If you can get on the side that takes the extra add every time, parse ez
since you can just cloak application and run over whenever the fuck you want
you can cloak the application, so it just falls off
I always just cloak the beam so I can stick on boss/add
We did the swap method, moving at 4 stacks
I hate the swap method
Yeah not the biggest fan
The side that gates always milks way longer and has 0 down time
And i was always put on the side that takes chain
So the side that takes chain has to sit and wait while they milk, and then stop dps to wait for them to get the other eye low enough
Kinda shit tbh
Yeah, I was chain group too
Like I said had to vendetta to catch up to the convoke on both eyes

as sin you want two on 259 if you only can get 246 you want one in offhand and 252 in mh
We’d leave the eye at 40ish, their eye at 55ish. So we had 15% more + movement + boomy convoked
Not always. My 252 offhand sims higher. It’s not blanket advice for sin 
anyway just sim before using anything but bis is 2x259
any1 sent to 2nd platform on p3 sylvanas to clean pools? got this task but i barely lived after jumping back
no
rogue is super bad at this
you need an external or smth
best class outside of a tank is probably a dh with netherwalk
ya im still the one to do it so ...
If you end up using an external just make sure its not sac
the only platform you have a dps do usually is 4th platform while you're on 1st
the others the tank do
sending a rogue 
I think the though process is “they have cloak” but its very backwards 
ye its basically, send the rogue he have cloak LMAO
if your raidlead rly dont wanna take a other player to do this try Elusiveness instead of Cheat Death
Yea actually good idea
Cringe but basically the only way to not get fucking smoked
i rly like Elusiveness if you're sure you dont fail its the best choice in that row
I hardly ever get assigned a duty because most of my guild doesn't even know what a Rogue could do.
Imagine if I tried making that "activate Cheat Death" meme a reality in their eyes.
I don't mean I avoid all responsibility, I do make a note of what I can do, I just make sure I don't get hit with something like Saisel. 
I only offer to do stuff if I know I’m the best person for the job
Pumpkin spice coffee with pb sandwiches, good morning so far. 
Understandable
I hardly ever get target for Crushing Gaze on The Nine or Frost Blast on KT, so I can't look cool taking it solo

Funny when some classes wanna solo those type of abilities with cloak, ice block, etc and someone be like "oh nooo I have to help my friend soaaaak that".
You know what happens next 
unless its called for solo i stay in group
doesnt really matter on the nine since on that fight nothing does enough damage to be threatening, but on KT there are certain soaks that are harder than others
Yee, yee I do
Friggin freezing in place soak anyone?
that + people recovering from spike dmg + having 6 people stuck when there's adds to interrrupt can cause wipes
"Why didn't you solo soak it?" 
anyone know if cloaking big purple circles on the nine removes the explosions entirely like cloak does on fatescribe? the cloak excel doesn't have details on this part
I run it out and then cloak and shadowstep back in. The sound effect for the explosion still goes off, so I assume it still pops when you cloak it off.
Like a Sylvanas arrow situation
can I run through balls with cloak on Painsmith?
No
You can try! I believe!
If you try it. Please take a video of the moment
Door of Shadows
Yes it does
I couldnt :<
Cloaking it removes the circle but Im unsure if it would cause the damage to go off to anyone in it
The only way to be sure is to make sure you’re standing on top of the entire raid when you cloak

For science
"research purposes"
Good evening Sinner's gamers, looking for advice and tips how to min max CD's for P2 Sylvanas. Currently testing this and it feels ... not optimal. Moving Vendetta to 1st Sylv burn doesnt make it align properly for 2nd (should i just hold for p3?)
Sinners
edited Sir.
I usually double cd on goliath, flag colossus, then vendetta burn 2
It kinda lines up better for p3 from what I know because using stuff on cd gets you more casts through the fight
CD on first Goliath, nothing on first Sylv burn, nothing on Colossus, CDs with pot + cloak haunting wave 2nd burn.
It lines up p3 CDs better so you pretty much fire them on CD, and it’ll be ready for the lust @ 13:30 ish
Arachnid Cypher ring 246 is apparently better than 246 Ring from slyv
149 crit 99 haste vs 205 crit 43 vers
Both of them together sim well for me
Ye got 252 Bloodoath signet
107 crit 151 haste
didnt think assa would favor my haste at 20%
I mean
It favors whatever is good for the gear you have
Next patch its probably right back to haste
yeah crit heavy im at 45% but could be at 50 if i dropped some ilvl
Haste means more opportunity to crit
I see
You want both but mostly crit
Im finally at the point where I need haste > Crit at 48.5 crit.
Shit took forever
what tea#s are worth rerolling from theotar?
Crit/Haste are both good, roll Vers/Mast
Buuuut doesn't really matter too too much, as long as you have something
so Agi is worth rereolling?
If you know way ahead of time when you're going to do content, you can reroll every hour until you get what you want and then log off until it's time
But I roll Nadja the QT3.14 so I just do whatevs
Cev are you still playing or have you entirely quit the game?
Seems like a lot of people I know retired until 9.2
Now I have to pug for the dagger

I got a 0% crit on my wind last night on remnant does that count for anything <.<
based dapman

its with new guild also so i gotta put my name out there
I've quit the game entirely.
Still hang around here though :p
i wish i could quit you
Sadge 😦
just taking a break or permanent?
It’s not like he’s evading the topic.
i lost the little interest i had in raiding after progressing 2 nights on Painsmith and wiping on the same thing 75 times
Wow
welcome to prog raiding
we did our first prog night last week. 40 pulls haven't gotten anywhere close to a full group past first intermission yet
i can't tell if i'm having fun or not.
If youre over it after 2 nights just wait until you get your month of sylvanas wipes lmao
At least for like a year. Kinda doubtful I'll start again after that :p
But who knows 
almost immediately after joining method 
Completely unrelated though :p
Would have quit even if I was with the Stormwolves of Stormscale
lol
@ebon notch consider the following
ooooooooo
but
hmm
your frost set wont be as big
with no dashing
and its a huge amount of healing
bill bill bill bill
blood set is better?
oh 100%
I joined the 10k club by a whisker... https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/xajKfS3VQTnw5adY5e7oJn
now just need to actually do it in raid o.o
sim it again 
No way! it might be different >:
receive more dmg, fixed
Tell healers to heal you less
yeh
yeah
I think ascended vigor > eternal grace
but eternal grace has less overhealing
idk how eternal grace procs though
Is healing oil worth?
Also
and rinse and repeat
yeh I guess
Why havent there been ptr notes yet
I want to see #outlaw mald for the 6th week in a row or whatever
no i havent
I heard a rumor you have a friend that plays kyrian bear 
Maybe
in the bag
@wild lantern yo fuck the damage parse I need kindred for the hps
Am I nothing to you besides a simp bear

Can someone explain why the MFD - vent is was meant to be BiS but virtually everyone in top logs runs vigor?
They don't know or old logs
recent addition
also if you get kindred
you may play subterfuge
hidden bladees
and still top
Virtually everyone in here is playing ep mfd
fun fact, top logs does not make top build, top player, top anything
yes bois that go to the gym play mfd
At least people that care nough to optimize
True just interesting to see
it would be funny if we had like a shadow with no name in private logs
This is how shitters like me get rank 1s 👀
Lol why
because things take time
so we could know how much cream are packing the top dogs
to pass through the community
mfd won't have a good showing until like 2 months into 9.1.5
cause it takes forever
MFD best run with obe right? Then dashing
Oh I see
Another factor is this discord is probably mostly NA and EU and a lot of the simp parses are cn or kr
Nah. That depends on your gear, most def a sim question.
Mfd sims higher with Dashing for me.
same
How far have you made it on Sylv 
we're reclearing this week
Why
Just cause? Or was p1 giving you guys trouble
We’re barely phasing correctly so we’re making some changes to roster tn
But we might end up reclearing next week as well
Is it normal to be parsing lower if I don’t have dashing + frost
raid lead on vacation
Gonna have to tough it out and clear everything this week somehow
Next week too @.@
Question: if I kill either sylvanas or KT HC, my vaults will also have their loot table options or do I need to kill both so the vault adds their loot table? (Got sylvanas down only)
Both
bleh, i've done a key as sub and never again 😠 😠 😠 😠 assa masterrace
So until I kill KT HC I don't have a chance on sylvanas loot on the vault?
No u can get her loot yes @
Oh okay. Sweet!
U can’t get kt loot until u kill him at least once
bro
we're switching 1 arms warr for his hunter so 2 hunters and 1 arms now
and i think we're switching resto druid for hpal
how far have you guys made it oxi?
we make it clean to intermission then it all goes to shit
same
we got to p2 with half alive
now we're switching comp so we're gonna have to reoptimize chain damage

How do you actually parse when you can only get 1 flag in p1 on sylv
Play obed I guess
Still only 1 vend
Wdym
i mean you can do chain dam also
I aint got wild spirits
Neither do the other sin rogues?
A lot push slower or do fast push

We tried fast push once, would have passed orange. Then decided not to for sales
So sad
are the boe leather pants from sod bis for frost build
only crit heavy legs ive seen
Last in the raid to get fusion amp...DHs, hunters, shams all got first rippppppppppp
No, and also BiS is an outdated concept that doesn’t really hold much weight these days
Good because I had some drop and I put them in the AH
enjoy the next 75-100 pulls
No kizzy bro
We wasted like 70-80 pulls with a raunch comp
Switched 1 arms for hunter and we sail through damage wise now
I think the biggest thing messing with people is that positioning can change from pull to pull
Like the chains/where she jumps to/where black arrows need to go etc
It took us 25 cause we got there end of night and people were losing their shit
lmfao
10k club we made it https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/bd5csgXgxhXzpi6yyv3pQ1


stop reading discord and kill boss
for mplus do we run different stats or is it still crit?
crit/haste .. check #assassination-faq
m+ should be crit most important, then probably mastery or haste
vers is good too though
everything is good
i play 40-42% crit, then depends on dungeon/affixes
big aoe dungeon = more mastery
a lot of st = more haste
also depends on tea
a solid mix of stats is good for keys though
dungeon slice is a good sim for us but its ok to adjust stats a little for your needs
Yeh mastery is good
But like sub, we don’t really play for aoe
We’re the single target cleave boys
And haste is really good for that
Having some mastery isn’t bad though
Vers obviously same thing, not the best but having some is good especially in high keys for a little more survival
JUST use what topgear tells u

He's tryna steal whispyr
I don’t want to put kojiyama’s traveling sim circus out of business
He rewrote the entire feral apl from scratch I hear
Rewrite the boomy one to bait them all to go kyrian
Lmao
I actually wonder how many people would play simp specs if their externals counted on their damage
Like if the bond from kyrian boomy went to the boomy’s details instead of the person they’re buffing
You think people would play it?
If that shit counted for logs probs all of them
Chickens already be dying due to not wanting to move during ramp
They'll do anything for the numbers
One of our boomkins dead ass suicided to spike spawns on KT prog
Because he fucked his pull
Lul
on the fight where dps matters least yikes
@ebon notch I have actually been wanting to play warrior though I hear good thing, I always went warrior/hunter first in my end of expansion leveling
The new kt strat makes boss dmg matter
I just can’t be asked maintaining 2 classes
I'd be willing to if not for Dom gems
I'm doing it now
Gonna get my last few pieces from a heroic boost this week
And then try blasting
Need them to add a ember catch-up
I'm really surprised they haven't yet
So far all they announced was higher drop rate for gems
@balmy condor go look at their APL and see if there's anything fucky wucky UwU
Honestly it’s probably working fine but a lot of rogue complications are aoe/dslice related
Shiv is actually one of the simpler apl lines
Press shiv on cd
rupture, but only in pandemic, and only if if if if
The time remaining where you cast rupture
Changes based on the bleeds you have out, dashing, doomblade, the time till the mob dies
The time you remaining where you cast CT changes on legendary, how many mobs you have, the time till the mob dies, the bleeds you have going out
And then people still be like “idk dslice isn’t optimized”
:/
dslice does always recommend haste though
is that because you lose a lot of boss damage without it?
Just say that you meant 4 ruptures and garrote on main target for 5 bleeds total for max prio damage

Boss and cleave
Haste only sucks if you can hit your saturation all the time
So like 4+, you’re saturating after opener
So you got haste going down
And then as you get more targets
DIVIDE SERVER TICKRATE BY ATTACK SPEED THEN DIVIDE IT AGAIN BY YOUR ILEVEL TO GET ACCURATE DPS FOR ANY ENCOUNTER
CT damage stonks
so like a key where you have tons of mass pulls
Mastery stonks
but you would still want a decent amount of haste
you never really want to get fucked by boss
Bruh there was one regular in here a couple months ago that was so dentbrain
Doing math for tick rates on rupture/garrote
To get an extra tick in
And I’m like “yeah but that doesn’t matter, cause partial ticks exist”
And he fucking stared me in my eyes through the screen
And unironically said “yeah but if you aren’t ever refreshing dots, it matters”
I'm too tired for this it's destroying my brain
Wtf is a partial tick
So rupture ticks happen every 2 seconds with 0 haste yeh
Which is fine cause all the rupture durations are even numbers
Super easy
Ok
Easy sure
So now your dots tick 10% faster
0.9 tick
So you get 1 tick, every 2 * (1-haste) seconds
So is it 90% the damage of a normal tick
No
Still same damage
But now it’s 1.8 seconds
and it doesn’t fit nicely into a 16 second rupture for example right
Yes
So you get 8 ticks
And then you have 1.6 seconds left
So it does a smaller hit of damage
To make up for it
A partial tick
Wait isn't that what I said
That’s also why when you recast rupture
You get a venomous wound
Instantly on cast
Because when you cast a garrote or a rupture
It instantly snaps the timer to tick on cast
The partial tick either gets added on the new cast
Or if it expires, just does a mini hit

Wait so what was wrong with what I said
Partial ticks are very scary stuff
very scary
Or was it right but coming from the wrong place
im going as a partial tick for halloween
Yeah it was right enough
It’s just the last tick though
Nah
Is the scaling too bad
crit can apply on every tick too
Cause the problem is that you need crit for the cp
will we ever see those big dick PBs like in legion with a shit ton of mastery?
Just have like baseline 25%
Nah
our mastery is so boring
PB doesn’t have enough of a base damage anymore
On top of that
Legion mastery was poison only
So you could have 200% mastery, 200% poison bomb damage
But now the same amount of mastery only gets you like 40%
Cause it buffs bleeds too
So not only is PB weak
The coefficient is shitty
Mastery affects it less
Bro I closed my eyes and started hearing beeping noises
The coefficient is indeed shitty
so reduced effectiveness of mastery to accomomdate to buff bleeds too?
Yeah

PB in legion also was also just like twice the damage baseline

My contacts
Yeah
Of course
Let me call my uncle who works at blizzard definitely for sure
no tell your blizzard friends to design something cooler for our mastery

or give us more cool stuff
oh.. ofc i didnt mean like 3,5mil crits of PB ... but the big dick dmg scaled down to our dmg rn .. but ig it does not change the fact that its still weak now :/
Idk poison bomb is just boring and stupid
Doesn’t matter if it’s 3.5 mil or 3.5k
Make it so that 1% of mastery is 1% more damage
i miss it anyways
% wise it’s just worse
Problem solved
yy i get it now
