It's just a do the mechanic fight

#

First version of kt was awful

slow marsh
#

It's just rough going from 25 pulls on eye to 10 on the nine then 61 remnant, 69 soulrender, 288 PAINSCHMIDT, then freaking 9 on guardian

#

Like wtf is this

lean coral
#

Should never have to hold dmg that fucking long

fallen arch
#

KT now is fine right

lean coral
#

Yeah

#

You just nuke

blissful raven
#

what is the b est legendarie for ASA???

lean coral
#

depends on cov/stats

blissful raven
#

vethyr is the best cov righr

timid cloud
#

Yes. You send. The only thing that matters is that you don’t nuke banshees since they literally have next to no HP now.

blissful raven
#

right

#

???

lean coral
#

sim dashing obedience and doomblade

#

for raid yeh

blissful raven
#

im new on asa

#

y level up an wana playit

#

its 230

lean coral
#

with less gear i think doomblade wins

#

not sure tho

#

id sim

timid cloud
#

It might be since you just don’t have the crit. But that’s a feelycraff moment.

#

When in doubt. Sim it out.

limber lion
#

It really depends on your frost rank honestly.

#

Without r4/r5 frost it's a bit messy

#

But yeah, wouldn't freeball it, just sim it out.

marble bear
#

is it bad that I use mad duke for all content?

#

!oil

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

arctic hare
#

I'm simming at 9,822 now, whoot whoot

vestal wren
#

nice

ebon notch
#

@slow marsh did you lose a bunch of players before painsmith or what lmao

slow marsh
#

It just be like that with this guild

#

I said before the tier that painsmith was gonna be the hardest boss for us just knowing how they are

ebon notch
#

withstand

#

that many pulls

#

i would have left at 150

slow marsh
#

I almost didn't tbh

#

I was making plans to leave after we hit 200 and the same people were dying to tank spikes and no changes were made

#

We finally managed to kill it last night, of course on the pull where I had a flag get parried but I'll take it.

long wyvern
#

not really

glass tulip
#

Wait so how many did it take?

vestal wren
long wyvern
#

Even if you get bombs and shatter

#

Just healthstone , even on shatter 3 which does more its completly fine

#

The issue with that boss is dps not doing orbs, bomb damage and shatter damage is irrelevant

vestal wren
#

it depends on the group

#

then more organized it is then less issues you will have

long wyvern
#

defo not i was in a very meh guild

vestal wren
#

but keep in mind that the majority is playing more casual that has to deal with other issues

#

we had damage stops but later with more gear just pushed through the boss often

gritty mason
#

does anyone know what the best zandalari embrace is for sin rogue?

golden basalt
#

Should be paku

south hollow
#

oh no

#

we killed kt

#

i dont wanna prog on sylv a month

slow marsh
subtle tundra
#

man zoldyck is actually such a pad leggo

echo geyser
#

right when i was about to sim my sin stuff

#

i noticed i had added PI and Kyrian Link

#

"i dont think im supposed to sim 14k ST"

#

i rly hope the kt legs beat painsmith ones

humble ginkgo
#

mfd on sin?

echo geyser
#

that is the meta rn yeah

#

for venthyr enjoyers

shell kettle
#

I mean thats basically the same thing

echo geyser
#

its probably because of vers instead of haste on obedience lego

#

otherwise itd win

shell kettle
#

1,5 week you can trash it for a remade one if you like. Or just turbofarm cinders i guess

echo geyser
#

o?

sharp zodiac
#

Yeah you get full refund of cinders and ash

echo geyser
#

ooo

sharp zodiac
#

So just need base item and missives now

shell kettle
#

youll need another tier 6 base item tho ye

#

But given your itemlevel you probably have plenty of gold income anyway

sharp zodiac
#

Legit think it only costs like 10k raw material for 262 cloak rn anyways

#

On proudmoore anyways

echo geyser
#

i was gonna scrap some old legos but i realized theyre 235 feelscryman

#

no cinders

sharp zodiac
#

You can just run 5 full double torg clears

shell kettle
#

You can farm torg anyway

echo geyser
#

crit haste kekw

sharp zodiac
#

Just sprint to end and kill boss doesn’t have to take long

shell kettle
#

just do quick runs for an hour and you have a leggo

#

ez

echo geyser
#

u mean perma cinder farm?

shell kettle
#

y

sharp zodiac
#

Yeeee

echo geyser
sharp zodiac
#

Ram bout to be R1 Maw rattle parse

echo geyser
#

they should let u trade soul ash for cinders

#

like 10 or 20:1

#

gonna be bathing in soul ash but no use

sharp zodiac
#

I heard that was in the works.

#

But they scrapped it to change a piece of wall painting to a bowl of fruit

echo geyser
#

doomblade is not gonna be seeing any more play right

sharp zodiac
#

Parse lords on first 3 maybe playing Necro

echo geyser
#

i see

shell kettle
echo geyser
#

yeah

shell kettle
#

The literal only reason that cinders exist is because they wanted to timegate tier 6 legendaries

#

It is now obsolete

subtle tundra
#

well, yea, it made sense

shell kettle
#

I think that if you look at it retroactively the entire system has failed and that the changes coming november 2nd affirm that

subtle tundra
#

i dont think so

#

it was the same with soul ash

timid cloud
#

Complaining about systems that are going away in a week.

shell kettle
#

Remarking someone's displeasure because you are displeased with their displeasure kekW

timid cloud
#

It’s just pointless & negative.

shell kettle
#

Its not pointless at all. If you never make your opinion heard you can't expect anything to change.

timid cloud
#

That’s true, but things are changing so why are we still talking about it? You’ve been heard, now you may stop.

shell kettle
#

I have my doubts about that honestly, I don't the idea that blizzard has now learned about their past and things will change for the better forever.

Anyways the very fact that I have to explain you these things probably means that any argument is largely futile so I won't bother further. If you do actually want to understand, you can always whisper me.

timid cloud
#

No thank you, we’re done here.

shell kettle
kindred rapids
#

Changing the subject, if garrote is in pandemic window at 3cp is it better to garrote and finish at 4 or mut, finisher, then garrote.

#

I usually do the latter

golden basalt
#

garrote no? Risk of wasting combo points with mut

quasi ledge
#

Yes, Garrote and finish on 4 (if playing Vigor obviously)

#

Removes the chance at overcapping if the Mut crits, but it won't make any difference either way tbh

timid cloud
#

It also depends on your Rupture / Envenom durations too.

kindred rapids
#

You risk wasting cp but 4cp finishers are less efficient than 5

#

So it's a tradeoff

#

I feel

timid cloud
#

Barely, it’s just because you need to keep up Elaborate Planning too.

quasi ledge
#

"Losing" the combo points is worse than finishing on 5

golden basalt
#

I mean if you can put rapture into pandemic that’s even better there

#

But there’s too many variations and the best cast would be different each time depending on the scenario

timid cloud
#

Mentally I’m just like “If I hadn’t overcapped my CP here then I would’ve had X amount of CP here in this part of my rotation, possibly, this is a DPS loss.”

golden basalt
#

“I could’ve reached my shiv window quicker and potentially gotten more shivs in during the fight”

#

Then just get completely demoralised and just chill

timid cloud
#

Lol.

#

wowreally u rly had to do oxi like that huh @kind talon

oak sky

i think it gets converted to mastery during lust doesnt it?

#

#

i mean

echo geyser
oak sky

no clue if its true

kind talon

oak sky

second highest is sin at 11.5%

oak sky
#

me never getting kyrian druid anyway

kind talon
#

true

#

cuz ur a bitch

oak sky
hollow river
#

I’ll get kyrian Druid one day 2ez

karmic depot
#

hey im new to the disc do you guys do log reviews?

oak sky
#

yeah if you ask for one theres plenty of people that can review them

karmic depot
#

there a certain channel i send it too?

oak sky
#

anywhere

#

or you can dm it if you dont feel like everyone seeing it

#

I wouldnt mind looking

karmic depot
#

okay im new to this stuff do i just send this

oak sky
#

you just get more comments from more people if you slap it in here

#

yep totally good

#

a lot of people have a fight in mind

#

so if you want more specific info on one parse you can always send that too

karmic depot
#

im just looking how to increase my dps i went up in the chat a bit saw someone 4 ilvl higher then me simming for 14k and i sim at 10.2k lol

oak sky
#

well a sim is just gear

#

also

#

if it was ramfam

#

one of his sims had kyrian druid buff baked in

#

which is over 1k dps

hollow river
#

Yeah no one is simming at 14k

#

Without like PI/kyrian Druid legendary external buff

karmic depot
#

the bood elf pumoer was at like 13.8k

#

oh it was ram

oak sky
#

well we cap out around the 12k range with the best gear we can get

hollow river
#

Max sims with regular raid buffs are 12-12.5k

oak sky
#

yeah

#

your gear is very good by the way, I'm guessing ur around 4/10 or 5/10 rn?

hollow river
#

This includes windfury totem which a lot of raids don’t have or don’t give to their assa rogue

karmic depot
#

ya i sim 10.2k patchwerk but seeing my ilvl parses are green and grey still doesnt make to much sense

#

ya im 4/10 M looking for a new raid team cuz mine raid 2-5 am

hollow river
#

Ouch

karmic depot
#

oh ya i dont get windfury

#

or pi normally unless i search for a group w a priest and pay them

hollow river
#

Yeah you can turn off wind fury in your sim buffs

#

Focus on parsing without PI tbh

#

It’s fun to get PI, sure

oak sky
#

o so

#

couple tips

#

I just checked your guardian log

karmic depot
#

ya youre totally right just want my parses looking clean when i have to link my parses to guilds for trying to join

oak sky
#

looks like you lost a few casts of things

#

you want to be pressing shiv, flag, and vendetta on cooldown

#

you sync up flag with vendetta when you won't lose a cast by doing it though

karmic depot
#

ya i normally do that i try to save them on that fight if we just are about to go into the sheild tho cuz alot of moving

hollow river
#

On guardian you wasted 8 combo points to mutilates

oak sky
#

losing a cast is way worse than using it at a bad time

hollow river
oak sky
#

the only time you should need to save uptime on guardian is when you get the bombs

hollow river
#

It sucks to get a bomb during CDs, but that’s somewhat unpredictable. Kinda rng at that point

oak sky
#

also, your rupture uptime was a little low

#

should be shooting for 98%+ if possible

#

96% on your garrote is good enough though

hollow river
#

Careful with wasting combo points as well

karmic depot
#

ya the website told me when vendetta is up to not use anything but mutilate and evenom so i dont even press my bleeds during that

hollow river
#

Big no no

oak sky
#

definitely press bleeds during vendetta

oak sky
#

they should never drop

#

ever

hollow river
#

What website??

#

That is insanely wrong information

karmic depot
oak sky
#

oh no nono

karmic depot
#

said i should try only using those 2 moves during it

hollow river
#

Don’t trust that website

drifting cloud
#

that thing hasnt been updated for like 3 tiers atleast

karmic depot
#

oh shit

hollow river
#

^^^

karmic depot
#

welp

oak sky
#

all the info in this discord in pins and faq is constantly updated

hollow river
#

Yeah not having bleeds rolling during vendetta is very bad

oak sky
#

and wowhead/probably icy veins are at least current to the patch

hollow river
#

They’re damage is amped

#

Stick to the discord and the guides linked here

#

!guide

karmic depot
#

during vendetta then should i be using a 4 combo point instead of 5 if it means wasting

#

combo point

hollow river
#

Never waste

#

Ever

#

You can shiv at 5

#

That’s the only thing you can “waste”

karmic depot
#

okay i see i see

#

becoming much more clear noe

#

now

oak sky
#

i'm pretty sure whispyr has updated the wowhead guide in the past few weeks since he became the guide writer

hollow river
#

Method.gg has good small guides for each individual boss fight too

#

Pretty useful info

#

But your raids fight timers are specific to your raid

#

So whether or not you sync a flag/vendetta is based on that

oak sky
#

the general rule is you sync your first and last vendetta/flag together

karmic depot
#

ya when i pug its weird cuz my cooldowns are different each team i go to makes things weird

oak sky
#

it can be hard

hollow river
#

Yeah pugging for parses can be a bit rough

oak sky
#

its safer to just press everything on cooldown than to try to hold and mess it up

hollow river
#

Timers are something you learn more as you play more. Do you have a combat timer WA?

#

That can help a little

karmic depot
#

i dont think so i just have boss timers like when they gonna do certain moves

hollow river
#

I’m still learning how to utilize fight timers optimally myself

oak sky
#

there should be a timer in the top left of details as well

hollow river
#

True

#

I like to have a really big timer wa though

karmic depot
#

ya shows how long fights been going on

hollow river
#

Something easily visible during a fight

#

But that’s me

karmic depot
#

ya but whats that help with if i may ask

drifting cloud
#

ert has one

karmic depot
#

just shows how long the fights been going on for

hollow river
#

So I know whether or not to sync my cast

karmic depot
#

oooo

oak sky
#

like if you know that you're at 50% on guardian at 1:30 you then you might want to sync flag with vendetta at 2 mins

karmic depot
#

okay i see now flag could be off cd but vendetta isnt and boss is at 15 % use the cds type deal

oak sky
#

because you probably won't get to use that cast at 3 mins

hollow river
#

^^^

karmic depot
#

ooooo okay wow i never thought of that

hollow river
#

Or flag comes off CD around 3 minutes but the boss should die before 4:30, you hold for the vendetta around 4

#

If the boss dies before 4, you’d send the flag alone

#

Etc

karmic depot
#

i see now

#

ya that makes sense

oak sky
#

but yeah the basic idea is to get the most casts you can of everything but also to sync up stuff when you can

karmic depot
#

thank you for looking over the logs yall amazing

oak sky
#

just let someone know if you have more questions

karmic depot
#

will do thanks

Is there a point to the defensive spreadsheet now?

#

Or does it all just go onto the method guide

balmy condor
#

defensive spreadsheet is more comprehensive

oak sky
#

""

balmy condor
#

also includes dungeons

hollow river
#

True

prisma cypress
#

i see mfd sims better than vigor, but how much of that gain is negated by wasting more energy

#

is this really better in practice

oak sky
#

yes, especially with resets

slow marsh
south hollow
#

the opener feels a bit clunky

hollow river
#

When you go to do a mechanic I suppose you could argue you’d cap energy faster without vigor idk

hollow river
south hollow
#

orc gang

dense hamlet
#

belf bis

hollow river
#

Indeed

slow marsh
#

i mean the opener is the same as bs/ds but a little better actually

south hollow
#

the orc tmog is very important

hollow river
#

I’ve been thinking about going orc out of boredom

dense hamlet
#

idk some mogs dont fit orcs

hollow river
#

Some don’t fit b elf :/

dense hamlet
#

ye

hollow river
#

Like SoD helm on f belf

south hollow
#

i like how shoulder pieces look on orcs

hollow river
#

Is kinda yuck

dense hamlet
#

isnt that helm just shit

hollow river
#

It looks decent on f orc

dense hamlet
hollow river
#

Goggles bis tho

#

On anything

south hollow
#

true

#

but you go f orc if you pvp

#

it s the law

hollow river
#

I rarely dabble in pvp

prisma cypress
#

all belfs must bow to their zandalari troll overlords

hollow river
#

Wanna get the glad mogs but just cba

south hollow
#

ngl if there were no factions all my chars would be gnomes or mechagnomes

#

their racials are fucking op

hollow river
#

Also cring

#

True even a lot of the patch gear sets of rogue sims are mechagnome

dense hamlet
#

BUT

#

belf is bis

#

anyways

south hollow
#

i want mirror images

#

they look funky

fathom swift
#

i hate being a diaper baby

#

awful racials and awful transmog

oak sky
fathom swift
#

yes i know what it does, thats why my rogue is a mechagnome

oak sky
#

then why did you say awful racials

fathom swift
#

awful to play with

#

not awful damage

hallow sage
oak sky
#

cant play alliance anyway

hallow sage
#

oce player, can only really play alliance 🤷‍♂️

oak sky
#

lmao

plain onyx
#

blood elf or orcs , what would you choose for rogues ?

balmy condor
#

Whatever looks cooler

plain onyx
#

racials wont matter a lot ?

oak sky
#

they never do, the biggest difference is like 100 dps or something

#

but belf and orc are like 2 of the best anyway

hallow sage
oak sky
#

@balmy condor how much do you gain from pressing arcane torrent at all during a fight

placid radish
#

orc is BiS if you also want to PvP

balmy condor
#

But it’s something I guess

oak sky
#

is there a sim

#

i need to know if i should actually be doing it

#

optimized laziness and all that

balmy condor
#

It is 100% worth doing

oak sky
#

guess im pressing it now

hallow sage
#

so i did some rough maths

#

and i worked out

#

15 energy is > 0 energy

#

so

#

do with that what you will

oak sky
#

thanks for your comment

hallow sage
#

yw king 👑 💪

oak sky
#

its 60 energy in a 6 minute fight + L + ratio

#

i use it in m+ for the dispel every once in a while

gusty mirage
slow marsh
#

It lets you hit flag 2 globals sooner

Surely it must be like 300 dps

It's Monday, I don't even know why I'm in such a good mood

kind talon
#

@solar stump yo just wanted to ask you if you think its good to go double dps trinkets?

#

and especially if thats good to use with spirit bomb?

#

seems like it might do tons of damage

round temple
#

Wrong discord? Pretty sure spr bomb is not part of assassin rotation 😛 or maybe i missed some conversation

kind talon
#

nah its just a meme i have with that guy

round temple
#

Aha my bad! I’ll lurk back into my corner now

normal mist
#

Spirit bomb should do dmg based on intellect. Or spirit, but that was removed

kind talon
#

DH with intellect

hallow sage
#

spirit bomb should pull health from all allies around you

#

to 1shot nuke someone, but it's got a 99% failure rate

normal mist
#

Dh + intellect would be able to triple jump!

Is kyrian any good on sin now

#

With these buffs

oak sky
#

what buffs

#

@humble ginkgo

kind talon
spice spire
#

No buffs, just sim correction iirc. In pins it states it’s verified for sub/outlaw. Unsure if it’s a gain for sin. That would be a TC question id ask Vhispyr if it weren’t 4 am for him lol

oak sky
#

seems unlikely since kyrian is so far behind on sin

kind talon
#

oh

#

the sim correction was for sylv daggers

#

so its like

#

nothing for sin since you dont use resounding clarity

#

lol

ruby oyster
#

yo guys on fatescribe, assuming equal gear would you rather play outlaw or assa? so far it seems like outlaw makes mechanics easier to deal with but my guild is aiming to burst p3 ignoring runes, if my execute patchwerk for outlaw and assa sims within like 200dps i guess im fine either way? im asking here and not in outlaw channel because i normally play assa so i would rather see a comment of players similar to me

oak sky
#

yeah play whatever ur better at

#

or whatever you want

#

rogue is insane and all 3 specs are close

ruby oyster
#

ok cool thanks, any value in using zoldyc instead of dashing if i decide to roll with assa?

oak sky
#

not worth it

#

damage loss too big

oak sky
#

no

rotund oak
#

lemme clarify

#

actually shadowstepping behind them

oak sky
#

no

rotund oak
#

aka balls rolling we step on the boss behind

#

kk thx

oak sky
#

you can step to something fully on the other side tho

#

not to the balls

#

or the boss inside the balls

rotund oak
#

thats what im implying

#

the boss being on the otehr side

#

if we can shadowstep

#

while balls rolling between

oak sky
#

why would it ever be on the other side

#

that trolls your melee

rotund oak
#

true but maybe could step on something else

oak sky
#

yeah you can step to a person but you literally never need to

kind talon
#

The boss is only on the other side in phase three for a second but you’re focusing balls at that point

oak sky
#

just kill balls

rotund oak
#

all i need to know

#

thx alot

kind talon
#

So you have p much 100% uptime

normal mist
#

This is not optimal but venthyr players can use shadow door to escape tricky situations

#

I usually use the venthyr ability to port to the other side of the beam in the 2nd boss, (if I'm not fast enough to just click my warlock and SS

oak sky
#

yeah but the point is your raid wipes if the ball doesn't die anyway so it doesn't matter either way

normal mist
#

Yeah yeah, was not talking about painsmith, just a quick reminder that we can actually do some tricky shit

rotund oak
#

im jsut considering whats a better spec to play coz the individual responsibility to stay alive is very high on painsmith

#

Outlaw seems more fitting for that

normal mist
#

I'm not a mythic Raider myself so I can't help with that

#

As a heroic nerd, I'm pretty okay with assa

rotund oak
#

ye door of shadows works actually and its a very good input

oak sky
rotund oak
#

its has acrobatic strikes,its definitely better for dpsing balls and hlding a rangecheck

oak sky
#

dpsing balls is easy you just backpedal bro

rotund oak
#

doesnt matter the specc for me,can perform the same in all 3

oak sky
#

then play sub it does the most damage because you can funnel off balls

normal mist
#

(in HC painsmith I just FoK the balls while melting the boss)

oak sky
#

nothing wrong with that royal

rotund oak
#

its progress,ofc ild play sub if i wanted to blast it

oak sky
#

damage kills bosses

rotund oak
#

im not saying it doesnt

#

i can still do dmg as outlaw

#

and im acutally simming higher as outlaw than sub

oak sky
normal mist
#

Well, if it is prog, wouldn't you have an easier time going assa so you can DPS while being brain afk and just focus on all the mechanics?

rotund oak
#

not a problem for me whatever the specc,jsut examining what might be more optimal

#

anyway,thx for the input

#

appreciate

normal mist
#

Guess so, I'm also a assa nerd, I can't enjoy any other spec xD

cerulean nest
#

real shit?

lean coral
#

i hope not

#

honestly

glass tulip
#

yeah imagine going to farm for 2 weeks and you just dont get it

#

then you have to wait until march to get it

lean coral
#

i mean imagine the pain of even tryna farm it

#

every melee gonna be signing up for that key

#

only real way to farm is getting a 4stack to farm it without

#

idk if theyre adding the key reroller to timewalking m+ either

#

to let you fish for the right key

rotund oak
#

Its gonna be huge though

#

auto-atk is a good chuck of our overall

lean coral
#

i just dont want a bis item in a every 3 months type of event

subtle tundra
#

if its like 50 dps i think its fine 🙂

lean coral
#

10% extra dmg on one of our top 3 dmg sources?

rotund oak
#

think it will be more than 50

subtle tundra
#

its not 10% bruv

#

literally you didnt read what he sent

rotund oak
#

oh ye it says by 27

#

so its a flat dmg inc by 27 on the autos

subtle tundra
#

wow players and drawing conclusions without knowing what they are talking about

#

holy shit

rotund oak
#

Had the old version of the ring,it was big back in the day

#

u r right

subtle tundra
#

if was really good and melee wasnt even a big part of dmg back then

glass tulip
#

wasnt melee not wanted because mechanics were just uber punishing

#

and/or ranged could cheese a lot of stuff

#

back in legion, that is

subtle tundra
#

that has been true for every expac

lean coral
#

yeah was gonna say

rotund oak
#

in general kinda ye but rogue was always needed

lean coral
#

thats like every xpac

rotund oak
#

lock/hunter/rogue was the meta back then

#

enh shammies where good as well

glass tulip
#

in general I'll probably try some of the dungeons, if I get a ring great, probably wont use it anyway

rotund oak
#

ill just wait for the actual sims

#

will see

subtle tundra
#

ill probably farm it as long as its more than 10 dps

lean coral
#

wonder how much dmg it is at max IL possible for the ring

#

crit haste too so it'd just replace my non sylv ring

oak sky
#

246 ilvl btw

glass tulip
#

^

lean coral
#

yeah my second ring is still 246

glass tulip
#

no way itll be enough to knock out a bis 252 or 259

lean coral
#

my vault lucks been shit

subtle tundra
lean coral
#

yeah dont see anything replacing my 259 sylv ring till next tier

rotund oak
#

its crit haste,for raid its bis even for outlaw

glass tulip
#

1 more week and I guess we'll see

rotund oak
#

also rings dont have primary stats on them so ilvl isnt that much of a big deal

alpine latch
#

Has anyone done the solo normal Plaguefall mount as Sin? I knowSub is better, but I suck at it. Just curious if it's actually doable or not and if so if anyone had any tips.

solar stump
lean coral
#

you have to do it on mythic 0 no?

solar stump
#

its easier to do on like a 210 DH Tank than it is on a 240 sin rogue

I attempted at iLvl 250 CANT kill the 3rd boss. Full buff and only got her to about 15%

How many times did you try? My results would vary quite a bit when I took my shot before 9.1

does anyone know why is that sometimes I get 4 combo points from mutilate?

#

generaly happens when I'm bursting

plain thistle
#

we have a passive

#

we generate 1 combo point per crit, mutilate strikes with both hands

fallen charm
#

oh it can crit twice

#

nice

Juicy for legion m,+

hollow river

Correct, legion m+ is proper m+, not timewalking.

#

Hey all, I was curious if anyone had an idea why my melee is missing so much in heroic raid? Under melee, i'm missing close to 20% of my hits every fight, but the boss isn't parrying, it's 95%+ just outright misses.

prisma cypress
#

you mean white hits, or all your attacks

vestal knot
#

I'm pretty new, so forgive my ignorance. I'm just looking at warcraft logs and it says melee has a miss percentage of 20% which seems like I would be doing better dps if I were to figure out why that's happening?

#

For example:

spice spire
#

That’s normal since we have weapons in both hands iirc.

vestal knot
#

Oh okay - that may be true. I'm not very versed in logs. Trying to learn how I stack up at the moment.

spice spire
#

It’s normal to miss quite a bit. Now if you’re missing more than like 30% that’s cause for concern. But also position behind the boss so no parries happen

vestal knot
#

Yeah, that makes sense. My parries were low so I was thinking something else was the problem.

spice spire
#

Nothing tilts more than an sbs parried off the top of the fight

vestal knot
#

Maybe more of a logs question than Rogue specifically but what's ilvl % mean? Just what percentage I am for all rogues in terms of ilvl?

spice spire
#

Yes

vestal knot
#

Ah, I must be doing terrible than. Seems i'm ranked 15% with an ilvl rank of 28?

spice spire
#

They will do a 3 ilvl range. So it’s usually 245-247. And like 247-250 kinda thing.

normal mist
vestal knot
#

Ah, I'm only 236

normal mist
#

(dont mind the emote, showing my GF)

spice spire
#

If you ever want someone to look at your logs, you can post

#

And you can have us see if there’s any tips to improve

vestal knot
#

Uh sure, yeah that'd be cool.

normal mist
raven vapor
#

What are you logging on? SoD logs are scuffed in the low ilvl range due to dom sockets

spice spire
#

It is not @vestal knot private logged 😦

vestal knot
#

Okay let me try and figure out how to make it clickable.

raven vapor
#

I can see it

vestal knot
#

SoD is what i'm logging on

spice spire
#

If you ever get some public, and want some help post here, there are SEVERAL helpful rogues here that love to help.

vestal knot
#

This might be more public

#

I really hated my dps on mythics and stuff for assasination, I think i'm finally understanding the class but there is so much to click versus my braindead warrior. I'm glad you guys are helpful, I appreciate it.

spice spire
# raven vapor I can see it

You can’t see the report as it’s private. You can see the numbers, but for the log review side of it and seeing casts, resource management, sequencing, movement, and etc. it’s not viewable for me anyway

delicate berry
#

i also realized that this was the wrong channel haha

spice spire
#

It’s saying it’s a private channel

delicate berry
#

trying to troll a friend

spice spire

There we go

Checking now

#

Thanks a lot, if we need to go PM versus clogging the chat that's fine too. Don't want to take over here lol

balmy condor

spice spire

A thread is a channel that’s temporary and diverged from the main channel

balmy condor
#

Goredrinker Log

vestal knot
#

Oh, I see it. That's cool.

spice spire
#

That way if someone comes in and asks a question and a whole conversation happens, log review isn’t lost!

dark token
#

Has a anyone checked on ptr whether dot damage for deadly poison and crimson tempest is reduced by the sqrt scaling of soft cap or is it uncapped? @balmy condor ?

balmy condor
#

only the initial hit of tempest as far as I know

dark token
#

Niice

hollow river
#

Can’t wait

dark token
#

Time to farm 262 Zoldyck

hollow river
#

Oh no

dark token
#

It will be even better next patch

hollow river
#

My zoldycks is like 225

#

Why’d you say something

balmy condor
#

those 3 pulls where you pull more than 8 mobs are going to be bangers

limber lion
#

But you can farm them infinitely without diminishing returns now, right?

balmy condor
#

yeh

dark token
#

Next patch yeah

limber lion
#

Or whenever 9.1.5 comes out

hollow river
#

Oo

limber lion
#

Ye

balmy condor
#

9.1.5 is infinte cinders

hollow river
#

Time to farrrrrrm

limber lion
#

So you can legit get every single legendary at 262 in one day

#

if you wanted

dark token
#

And they buffed the base soul cinders rate too I think

limber lion
#

Not sure why you'd want that, but you can do it

hollow river
#

That’s the RuneScape grind talking Comfy

hollow river
balmy condor
#

nah

hollow river
#

I imagine it will be hard to control which 8 mobs are taking the full scale damage though..

limber lion
#

Doubt it'll change much

#

The SL dungeons were designed with the AoE cap in mind

#

That's why most packs are like 3-4 mobs

balmy condor
#

the problem with pulling bigger is running out of CC and tank damage mostly

hollow river
#

Yeah ik

balmy condor
#

think about necropolis in NW

limber lion
#

Yeh, there's so many cancer packs that you just can't deal with

balmy condor
#

they nerfed weapons, and people needed to use 2 weapons or else they would run out of cc

#

or the tank would get smashed

hollow river
#

Maybe in 9.2 we’ll get some banger nuke em dungeons copium

limber lion
#

Like Tazzavesh?

balmy condor
#

if that shit doesn't insta-die from weapons and orb silence runs out

#

you're doomed

hollow river
#

Or we just continue playing PoE for our nuke it all fix copium

balmy condor
#

tazzavesh has like 2-3 big pulls tbh

#

I can see it

#

but dunno

#

that shit hits pretty hard

#

and has some spooky stuff

hollow river
#

Yeah it should be made into 2 m+ dungeons right?

balmy condor
#

tazavesh feels like a tank buster

#

yeah

hollow river
#

Gonna be spicy

#

Some of that stuff trucks at m0 level

#

Or hard mode I should say

hollow river
limber lion
#

What's up

inland hull
pallid bough
#

Tazavesh might be scary but imagine getting a +15 ticking sac in your vault

spice spire
inland hull
#

Can do! Time to finally keybind a pot

spice spire
#

Also at 247, MfD will probably be better (as always, sim it!)

inland hull
#

Yeah, I want to say it sims 100+ dps higher, I'm just not used to it, so I thought it'd make my results worse due to poor play, but I can practice that.

spice spire
#

Yep, just those few things because that’ll up your garrote uptime. Other than that, you wasted a singular CP on mutilate? Work on that I guess kekl

inland hull
#

Ha! I even knew it when I happened!

#

"Well that's one for the log review"

spice spire
#

kekl recognizing is good

inland hull
#

Has anyone posted a vid or anything showing mfd use? I'm having trouble getting the flow of it.

spice spire
#

It’s in the FAQ iirc

#

But if you want some hot MFD gameplay

#

Lemme see if I can find a rogue that streams

#

And you can watch that god

#

Vod even

pure moth
#

Ill have to sim again. Ive simmed afew times and it hasn't come out on top for me

You can also BS/DS for guardian

Shes gonna die tonight

#

So.....

gusty mirage
#

I'll toss you a habibi prayge

oak sky
#

Like we literally almost got it our last raid night

gusty mirage
#

not a more authentic prayge from me right there

oak sky
#

So there isnt any real reason we cant kill

spice spire
gusty mirage
oak sky
#

We have like 2 people late to raid tonight so we might waste an hour

#

:/

#

I really want us to get it

hollow river
#

We have like 2 different absences planned this week :/

spice spire

This is looking like you might be caught in 12k king

Gonna be C R I S P

Kidding here, just making yokes

hollow river

#

TRUE

hollow river
#

If I don’t have at least ONE before 9.2 then all is lost

or any difficulty

hollow river
#

Mythic

gusty mirage
#

oh

#

I was going to say dude

hollow river
#

I got heroic on my AOTC kill

gusty mirage
#

just loot the item

#

its that easy

hollow river
#

Just loot it twice 5head

I'd take it from lfr just to know it exits

Getting back to work,
You all have a great one and best of luck tonight king yejoice

idk if I can kill her 14 more times for another 246

gusty mirage
hollow river
#

I’ve given up on double heroic it doesn’t even sim better for sin

spice spire
#

Muse plays both based specs tho. Outlaw and Sub yejoice

hollow river
#

My blood would be r5 this week if I cleared heroic

hollow river
#

I’m 30 embers away

spice spire
#

Both killer for him so it’s a no brainer

tight ginkgo
#

im no sinner

gusty mirage
#

the budget fury warrior doesn't deserve a dagger

hollow river
#

My r4 blood sub sims the same as my r5 frost sin

spice spire
hollow river
#

So r5 blood would make me play sub

gusty mirage
#

can't loot daggers in your fury warrior with pistols spec

tight ginkgo

not every one can be as kind and generous as quake it is true

spice spire
#

Kidding, muse kinda the goat tho

No u georgeStare

I have 252 and EoN sin and outlaw weps but I gave up on veinripper

Too bad my outlaw sims the same as my sin

Idk how

spice spire
gusty mirage
#

no

oak sky
#

resounding bad

hollow river
#

Literally all 3 specs sim 10.5k for me

oak sky
#

kyrian behind

gusty mirage
#

the changes to the sims were the anima charged CP affecting sylv daggers

balmy condor
#

I mean it does apply to us

gusty mirage
#

kyrian didn't magically become great

spice spire
#

Even before, Kyrian was ahead of NL though, according to sims

balmy condor
#

but who gives a shit

#

cause it's sin kyrian

#

with sylv daggers that are dogshit for sin

hollow river
#

I’d play it

spice spire
#

I figured it applies but still isn’t like better than Venthyr for us

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

def not

hollow river
#

Kyrian sub in 9.1.5 copium

gusty mirage

#

I am just making sure, didn’t really have time to do a full review of it before work, thank you for clarification though

hollow river

I’m gonna level a warlock and monk too

skip the memes

I want that warlock mage tower moggie

I don’t wanna spend monies to boost all these pepehands

Skip to green rogue

EZ just play rogue and lament your fate until blade flurry is uncapped

Ha, my bad -- was just memeing. Probably could've made that clearer.

Blade flurry will get switched to 8 targets and the last minute

#

Just you wait and see

slow marsh
hollow river
#

Once I have r5 blood tonight or next week I might go sub

slow marsh
#

I like outlaw more for prog tbh just because of the cd timings

hollow river
#

But I think my raid wants me to stay sin for Sylvanas boss dam

slow marsh
#

if i had r5 blood i'd play sub

hollow river
#

I’m getting PI on p2 boss burn logs

oak sky
#

unethical

hollow river
#

With my vendetta since I can cloak the first waves

#

I didn’t ask for it

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

It’s just kinda best used on sin at that moment

oak sky
#

im not even cd on boss first burn pepechortle

slow marsh
#

ill be unethical all day if it's the optimal usage

hollow river
#

You cd adds?

slow marsh
#

my guild gives PI to destro lock

oak sky
#

goliath

slow marsh
#

on ST fights

oak sky
#

not demo+ not fire mage + not boomie + L + ratio

hollow river
#

We would be giving it to our demo probably but he has to take time once he gets to the boss to set up gate and his portal and then begin his ramp so

#

I usually have move speed or even sprint to get there quickly and hit the boss right after the interrupt

oak sky
#

demo is like the best pi target

#

generally speaking

#

we have 2 but no priest

kind talon
#

demo is good

#

firemage is kinda goated tho

#

unreal

#

stinky as fuck

oak sky
#

ong

#

stank af

kind talon
#

holy moly on a whole cannoli bro

hollow river
#

I’m usually above our demo on boss dam when PI goes to fire mage

#

Fire mage is straight unethical almost as bad as Venthyr bompken

spice spire
#

Whether or not it goes to a higher damage character is (mostly) irrelevant. If demo gets +700, and you get +400, even if you’re still ahead, it’s just better to give demo, yeah?

#

Like if the player sucks

hollow river
#

Nah it definitely depends on performance and reliability

spice spire
#

No

#

But if you’re just a slightly better player and their class is way better, yes they should get it

hollow river
#

I definitely agree with you

spice spire
#

Idk your demo

hollow river
#

But it depends on the raid and players

spice spire
#

But there’s several people in my guild that will not get it kekl

hollow river
#

Cev did a whole theory craft on giving assa rogue PI for p2

#

I wanna see his studies

oak sky
#

idk
