#

Aight - just tested it out - and Im guessing that I do not want to line it up with shiv then? seeing how Shiv is 25 sec and popped on CD and MfD is 30?

spice spire
#

Yeah probably not; you’re overthinking it. Outside of the flag windows, just pop on CD

#

Well when you’re at 0 too obviously

#

Don’t pop MFD with some CP 😛

gusty adder
#

obv. :>

#

but aight, ill test out how it feels later

#

already missing vigor tho :<

gusty mirage
#

if you're belf, you can torrent after snd or garrote to help speed things up a bit

#

so you could mut > snd > mut > torrent > garrote > flag > rupture

#

or mut > snd > mut > garrote > torrent > flag > rupture

#

because you're waiting for energy regen anyway, so the gcd for torrent doesn't matter too much

gusty adder
#

am orc - but ye. Feels horrible in the opener even - at least without hero, seeing how I'm sitting for 1-1½ sec waiting for energy after mut - snd - mut - garrote - WAIT - flag - rupture - vanish opener

#

ah ye - same thing

gusty mirage
#

ye that's the issue w/o vigor

#

people underestimate how nice the extra base energy amount is

solid venture
#

u dont prepull with mfd snd?

gusty mirage
#

no

solid venture
#

why not think

gusty mirage
#

you want mfd for the flag stacks

solid venture
#

i mean you can use mfd and wait to click yes on ready check if ur a degenerate like me

#

and still have mfd back for the flag stacks

gusty adder
#

We dont readycheck :< Would be a gamble every time 😄

spice spire
#

Hol up what monkaGIGA

solid venture
#

use mfd and click ready when theres like 15 sec left on its cd

#

cast snd right as boss is pulled

gusty mirage
#

lol

#

hey man you do you

solid venture
#

idk

#

lol

drifting cloud
#

yeah it works just depends how long pull timers your guild does

solid venture
#

this is what i mean pretty much

spice spire
#

It’s definitely a good thing to do - but given this is a completely new thing to the person asking probably not the suggestion needed. But I remember ryler did it with 20s prepull

drifting cloud
#

yeah its easy in my guild, only way I get fucked is the pull timer starts 15s after ready check is done 😛

#

because by then all the combo points are gone

spice spire
solid venture
#

yeah my guild has the same syndrome

spice spire
#

Especially if your guild doesn’t ready check I wouldn’t recommend. It’s a small, little gamer move which helps ryler and others get those fat parses

#

But definitely more when you understand the lines of mfd and your guild timers than a universal

drowsy parcel
#

i made my guild switch to 25s pulltimer when i play mfd

thorny pond
#

Okay satan

#

Typically first Eye beam I cloak it and stay on boss. I actually run towards it so I can pop cloak sooner rather than wait and get the CD running. I don't know what you mean by shadowstepping the boss vs using chains. Since you can't really appear behind the boss, I assume this means once the beam has cross the threshold (center) you shadowstep and it puts you back in front of him

spice spire
#

Yeah

#

You can do that every time because it puts you in the exact same spot

#

And there’s zero interruption in anything

outer cairn
#

I've been opening up on Kyra and then I throw my next garrote and rupture up on Signe. At least try to but the way we do the boss they end up pulling them back a bit so I'm chasing Kyra most of the time until they get them in position. Once they do I throw Garrote and Rupture up

outer cairn
# spice spire Yeah

I mean I knew that, but it didn't occure to me to do that until you mentioned it.

spice spire
#

Yeah I’d recommend it

#

Less thought process and whatnot

#

No one murders the homies on the meters and gets away with it

#

I step every beam for that reason lol

outer cairn
#

Right on. And typically as soon as the add spawns I throw a 4-5 cp rupture up and then I go right back on boss

spice spire
#

Yep

#

Don’t want that winds hitting add

outer cairn
#

I think for 9, I just need to get a garrote and rupture up on Signe a bit faster while focusing Kyra and just pay more attention to their timers on her and try to keep them running a bit more smooth. With EP/Vigor its obviously easier because I feel the energy starve running MfD

#

I actually started using the BElf racial in my open because I can Mut - SnD - Mut but there is a good second or so of downtime where I can't garrote immediately so I use that GCD to cast that and get some energy back and then I'm able to garrote - flag - vendetta- rupture

#

Need to get back in there on Heroic and just practice a bit more

#

But the Rogue who normally beats me, I was beating him on Remnant

#

these are all on Mythic btw

spice spire
#

Figured

outer cairn
#

what really helps is i finally got a 252 dagger from vault and last week I got a heroic edge of night

#

and my numbers have been way better than just playing EP/Vigor with Dashing

#

So now I'm trying to figure out where am I making these mistakes that are costing me damage and I think the lack of Vigor means I need to pool, which I'm not used to doing, so that could be playing a factor

thorny pond
#

You just said you run EP/Vig?

spice spire
#

Gotta read the whole bit beach

#

Rn he’s running mfd, he was running ep/vigor

outer cairn
#

I used to run EP/Vigor with Dashing, but I saw that Obedience/MfD was doing well for Venth Rogues so I simmed it and my sim was a lot higher and I've been using it and my damage has been way better

thorny pond
#

was got it

#

sorry mobile is cancer

outer cairn
#

Tarragrue is a gimme. I think based on discussion, Ep/Vigor would still be really good during Eye and Nine just cause of throwing additional bleeds up on other targets

thorny pond
#

fights with MFD resets are always good. My biggest takeaway last week after running MFD is just to be a bit forward thinking and pool when appropriate ahead of time. It starts to get messy when you have to play catch up with bleeds

spice spire
#

I could see EP/vigor on the nine being fine. But you also get hella energy by maintains bleeds

outer cairn
#

yes I need to maintain bleeds better. I had to play with Plater to help with the enemy name plates cause they were overlapping terribly despite having it set to not have them do that. MfD has been great and in between Flags, I haven been using it mostly to ensure I get another Envenom off during the next shiv window

#

if the timing is right. i try to always cast shiv on cd

#

i'm only 243 right now, but the fact that I can beat the other rogue during Remnant means I should also be able to beat him during Eye and Nine

#

since we running the same thing

static rock
#

is obedience good with bs ds or do we use dashing with bs and ds?

#

and if someone doesn't mind can they tell me if i have any any big issues i know it isnt the best fight

#

i swapped sin mid prog so i dont have many logs as sin

cerulean nest
#

i hate how MFD feels tbh

spice spire
cerulean nest
#

dont like having the entire fight focused on it

static rock
small basin
cerulean nest
#

yeah but I just mean in multitarget fights. trying to snag dying mobs right before they die and shit

static rock
small basin
#

but if you delay you could lose casts

static rock
#

yes thats true but it lined up for me during the window most of the time

outer cairn
#

after opener and based on cd times, i have typically been able to mfd again inside of my next shiv window

spice spire
#

But to answer dashing

static rock
#

yeah i was using bs and ds on guardian since it was just patchwork

#

should i use ep mfd there?

outer cairn
#

then my next MfD is up for my next shiv window with flag

spice spire
#

Ep/mfd still does better yeah

#

Also

#

You’re only lining flags up with vendetta, don’t do that you’re missing casts. At least in that fight, but it’s a weird selection

#

You also missed a vanish

cerulean nest
#

since when is BS/DS worse on single target?

spice spire
#

Since the mfd optimization

#

Your sims should show it

cerulean nest
#

checking now

mystic garden
#

Is vigor just a moot point?

cerulean nest
#

so its literally EP/mfd on every boss

outer cairn
#

honestly i'm waiitng to run Ob and DB together in 9.2

spice spire
#

Yeah you definitely can

outer cairn
#

but wondering where we craft DB since the current pieces will probably be tier slots

mystic garden
#

Well thankfully we can fully recycle legos for 100% refund

outer cairn
#

true. will still have to buy the piece though at rank 6

spice spire
#

You still run vigor if you’re not venthyr with ep

static rock
spice spire
#

Mfd good because of flag

static rock
#

i missed the last vanish completely

#

is 40% crit normal on wind of winters? seems kind of low

#

or is it just unlucky

outer cairn
#

42 is the magic number i was always told

#

but you want higher so you aren't relying on energy since your muts should almost always give you 4 cps

static rock
#

no i mean like in the log

outer cairn
#

oh

static rock
#

my wind of winters had a crit % of 40

spice spire
#

And I’m doing mobile review and it looks like p2 could have squeezed one in and stuff. You can check vs intermission but I’d have to be on a comp kekl

outer cairn
#

My understanding is stack crit with Dashing. but if making the move back to obedience/mfd, you need to start getting some haste back since you lose vigor

cerulean nest
#

that opener looks wack hahah

spice spire
#

If you prepull mfd, you’d have to have a longer pull timer

thorny pond
cerulean nest
#

no is it a shitshow

thorny pond
#

Think we hashed it out

gusty mirage
thorny pond
#

JPS got some early intel in and we ran with it. I think ID is the play now but again that's sub shit

static rock
thorny pond
#

we bleed bois here

gusty mirage
thorny pond
#

How was prog Oxi? I had to close the stream a lil early

gusty mirage
#

45.1% wipe

#

went through the logs and a buncha stuff could've been fixed for a lot of us

gusty mirage
#

including 2 peeps dying for like all of plat 3

outer cairn
#

if sub opener changed using mfd id want to know

gusty mirage
outer cairn
#

mfd and using deathly cheese

thorny pond
gusty mirage
#

so if you do the prepull snd stuff, you'd need mfd to come off cd when you press flag

cerulean nest
#

ah yeah okay

thorny pond
#

flag delay is pure cancer

gusty mirage
#

tbf mfd is pure cancer as well

#

but here we are

cerulean nest
#

anyone have a log with that opener? just want something to look at on my second monitor when I pull lol

outer cairn
#

i think i need to sim mfd with dashing and see what wins

#

right now obedience has been winning

gusty mirage
#

depending on gear it could win

#

mfd dashing is like 26 dps over mfd obe for me

outer cairn
#

right. the difference between OB/MfD and EP/Vigor w/ Dashing for me is like 100-200 dps

gusty mirage
#

oh

#

ep/mfd w/ dashing should still win

#

over ep/vigor

cerulean nest
#

also @spice spire BS/DS still sims muhc higher on patchwerk for me

outer cairn
#

so if i go dashing with mfd it could be a lot closer

gusty mirage
#

but it's not like an insane amount

outer cairn
#

right. just with Dashing means less flag casts

fallen arch
#

Is anyone running mfd in m+?

gusty mirage
cerulean nest
#

he told me it wouldnt lol

gusty mirage
fallen arch
#

Awesome

#

Vigor it is

gusty mirage
#

ye the extra energy is stonks

fallen arch
#

I l’m renowning venthyr

#

Ans i’m really not sure whether to use obe or zoldyck

outer cairn
#

Shiny Vampy Boi is always the play

gusty mirage
#

fort weeks zold probably still wins

outer cairn
#

I play Zoldyck when I do M+

fallen arch
#

With zold my output seems higher this week

#

Ye

gusty mirage
#

depends on what you wanna do, ya know?

#

obe is stonks for tyran though

fallen arch
#

I wanna assett dominance as rogue

spice spire
#

Obe also stonks for top this week

gusty mirage
#

obe for more prio, zold better for overall

small basin
#

necro still sims higher for dungeonslice but dunno, venthyr easier to play

outer cairn
#

You're a Rogue. You've already established dominance

static rock
#

i think obed is more damage upfront too i think

fallen arch
#

That’s what you want

gusty mirage
static rock
#

i prefer zoldyck but alot of the streamers are playing obedience

fallen arch
#

Tricks the boomerboy entire dungeon

gusty mirage
small basin
#

i like obediance for tyran and zold for forti

thorny pond
#

Obe gives you the potential to take down a prio target, Zolds doesn't

outer cairn
gusty mirage
#

yeppers

cerulean nest
#

real quick before we end the MFD talk. can someone send a good log/video of using it on a few different fights? just helpful for me to look it over that way

gusty mirage
#

you'll do consistently okay damage in aoe w/ obe

fallen arch
gusty mirage
#

but your prio dam/boss dam is infinitely better w/ obe than zold

spice spire
#

Wdym

gusty mirage
#

idk I'm a converted full time obe gamer now

spice spire
#

The wombo combo jank that you should never do is MA:CT

thorny pond
#

Also vers is just worth more the bigger the keys get

spice spire
#

I’ve been convinced

#

When I’m allowed to go venthyr

#

I run obe

outer cairn
small basin
#

best is night fae for uwu

gusty mirage
#

@spice spire that's cuz obe shows you how mediocre zold really is

#

doesn't do shit for 70% of the pull essentially

outer cairn
#

Yeah

#

but that last 30%

#

Bleed for me baby

gusty mirage
#

ye don't get me wrong its still good

cerulean nest

@spice spire teach your tank to chain

#

What tea do I want?

gusty mirage
#

crit

spice spire
fallen arch
#

For m+

spice spire
#

Current tank*

gusty mirage
#

always crit

outer cairn
small basin
#

is it normal for venthyr to sim quite a bit lower for dslice than necro?

fallen arch
#

And what tea don’t I want

thorny pond
#

aagi

gusty mirage
#

agi/haste for m+

#

but mostly just agi

#

anything else is usually fine

fallen arch
#

But output is similar

spice spire
#

Do you not remember sending me “does your tank just hate your healer?” Mid key king?

gusty mirage
#

yeah necro is better in cleave

#

LMAO

#

bro

#

that poor holy pal

static rock
#

so if i dont roll crit tea then swap nadija?

#

in raid?

spice spire
#

That prot pal is an hpal main

thorny pond
#

you can sim it edibles

spice spire
#

And he plays the same way both times

#

He’s actually a lunatic

#

Certified

gusty mirage
#

cleanest 5 death top ever

#

all 5 being the poor holy pally

#

lmao

spice spire
#

Yeah he just didn’t give a shit

#

That pull before gorechop hpal wasn’t even there for

#

He said nah were hitting it

static rock
spice spire
#

It’s not that bad tbh

#

Less of a loss than you’d think

gusty mirage
#

you're better off just chaining and utilizing the bleeds from the last pull to set up your regen for the next pull

#

than resetting that set up every time

static rock
#

the empowered garrotes if my tank doesnt allow restealth?

gusty mirage
#

plus ideally you'd be using vanish on CD to empower the garrotes

#

so it's about dps neutral

#

whispyr did sims last season (maybe earlier this season?) and assassination actually loses less than outlaw does when getting no restealths

static rock
#

oh okay thats good to know!

gusty mirage
#

it mattered more in bfa w/ shrouded suffocation

small basin
#

makes sense, count the odds is big

gusty mirage
#

but even then just not having to set up bleeds and stuff is big

#

like if you chain 2-3 w/ bleeds into next pull you can go straight into fok -> CT and spreading bleeds

thorny pond
#

Biggest thing about early bleeds is the energy regen and the low opportunity cost to get a few garrotes up

gusty mirage
#

yeah plus you'll get at least 3 empowered garrotes up every pull w/ vanish

static rock
#

ct doesnt give energy right?

gusty mirage
#

correct

kindred rapids
#

on sylvanas we cloak waves in second P2 burn w/ cds right?

fallen arch
#

Use meld on cd too 4head

gusty mirage
#

if you're CDing both burns

kindred rapids
#

makes sense

gusty mirage
#

you'll get cloak up w/ both vendettas

thorny pond
#

Just don't screw up earlier and need cloak

kindred rapids
#

means there's a pretty big gap between cloaking intermission and waves

small basin
#

think running crippling poison is good with spiteful?

kindred rapids
#

you can't cd both burns without faerie right?

gusty mirage
#

you can

gusty mirage
#

you just gotta pop vendetta ASAP running over to first burn

kindred rapids
#

oh interesting

gusty mirage
#

I vendetta as I'm running over and I get it for the the last 17-18s of the 2nd burn

#

you lose some value on both but you fit in an extra cast

thorny pond
#

The fight both feels tailored to sin but at the same time ass

bleak spoke
small basin
#

more thinking of my gifted puggers

thorny pond
#

"fuck em"

outer cairn
#

I vendetta first burn during P2, then I vendetta early for the last summoner/soul judge which means I can vendetta again during p3 before next lust and vendetta.

#

but, that could also be slower kill time

bleak spoke
#

Tbh the reason they’ll be cranked by spites is because they don’t notice them not because they’re not slowed

kindred rapids
#

probably keep cding first add platform until we start pushing more reliably

bleak spoke
#

You’re far more likely to save their lives with kidney shot

kindred rapids
#

after first burn you just have colossus

spice spire
#

Think Ska is talking about heroic?

outer cairn
kindred rapids
#

M

bleak spoke
#

It’s like 30 seconds to get to colossus another 30 to kill it and then bridge spawns and shit

outer cairn
#

Yes Heroic lol

#

I'm no where near M Syl

gusty mirage
#

yeah dude

hazy hound
#

hey guys . i have small question how much haste % i have to "cap" for M+ ?

gusty mirage
#

the blade actually isn't matching the animation

#

can confirm

gusty mirage
hazy hound
#

completly ?

outer cairn
#

When everything is bleeding, the energy comes rolling in

kindred rapids
#

there's actually so much padding you can do in P1

thorny pond
spice spire
#

It’s not irrelevant. But it’s not a primary stat to look at

kindred rapids
#

w/ mfd especially

spice spire
#

You want crit then a healthy mix of everything else

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

Crit first and foremost

#

And there’s no cap on anything

#

Just sim stuff to see what’s best

#

Which feels like a cop out, but between different soulbinds, covenants, trinkets, gear sets it’s better to just say that than go through the hoops and stuff

it's not bad, but I think it still loses for triple potency

im guessing the third potency you'd swap between PK and WPS?

depending on dungeon and if you want more prio damage

Defias isn’t a promotion lol and he’s always been defias

Just remember to play terrible on PTR and betas

outer cairn
#

i definitely want to play better and do more damage. I thrive on being top damage and if someone is beating me then I have somthing to chase. For weeks the top rogue has been beating me. Granted we aren't a CE guild, but I was top on remnant last night and he's got 5 ilvls on me. Which means if I can beat him and the other rogue on Remnant I should be able to beat him on Eye and 9

#

I see you refresh garrote and rupture a lot outside of pandemic windows but you still let garrote fall off 2x

#

I also see spots like this where you'd have been better to hold that envenom, cast shiv then cast envenom

#

MFD outside shiv and flag

spice spire
#

This might be worth a thread review uh @stuck knoll ?

thorny pond
#

I just can't make a thread otherwise XD

spice spire
#

Yeah we gotta ping a CF or SB. And most of the sin ones are asleep or away rn

outer cairn
#

Bleeds for me right now is a timing thing. Where I could easily refresh during pandemic, I'm still adjusting to the lack of energy without Vigor. So its a timing thing that will come as I get used to it more I believe. Makes sense to hold envenom then shiv, especially if I'm at 4 CP and shiv is coming off cd soon and i won't cap energy

I swapped from Venthyr to Kyrian. It was for Subtlety, but I've been enjoying Assassination lately.

  1. is Kyrian considered bad for Assassination? I feel like it's less DPS, but I forget what I was simming as Venthyr.

  2. Do others find Echoing Reprimand incredibly satisfying to use compared to Flagellation? I agree Flag is likely more DPS in nearly all situations, but it's not as "punchy" and the mini-game of spewing out a bunch of CP for Obedience isn't nearly as noticeable as nailing 7 CP finishers with the Kyrian legendary.

  3. I'll sometimes use Poisoned Knife in an attempt to specifically land on the animacharged CP. Is this right to do, or should I avoid doing this and just do my normal rotation?

  4. can Poisoned Knife crit? I don't think I've ever seen it generate 2 CP with Seal Fate.

  1. that'll be what we have to do in 9.2 if kyrian becomes better / equal to venth
#
  1. yes
hollow river
#
  1. No that is incorrect you should not do that
#

Do your normal rotation

thick sail
#

So don't do 3

slow marsh
#

yeah dont do that right now

hollow river
#

Don’t do that ever

slow marsh
#

dont even know if it'd be worth in 9.2 but was just something discussed

hollow river
#

Pretty sure

slow marsh
#

only way to hit on 2

thick sail
#

Even in PvP, or like, to land another 7 CP envenom on a boss as it's about to die?

slow marsh
#

na

hollow river
#

Garrote

thick sail
#

Interesting, I've been playing it wrong then

slow marsh
#

yeah but you're holding shiv then which is bad

hollow river
#

You have plenty of time

#

You’re not holding shiv

#

Ever

#

You can almost shiv twice inside of ER buff

#

You have so much time to hit the CP

thick sail
#

Well absolutely, but sometimes I need 1 CP to land on an animacharged CP when Shiv is on CD and Garrote isn't in pandemic refresh window

slow marsh
#

then you ignore

#

just like outlaw or sub would

thick sail
#

So just wait until I land on it naturally then

slow marsh
#

yeah you never go out of your way to land on animacharged even as the other two specs

hollow river
#

You can sorta try to aim for it, but don’t try super hard

#

If you know garrote is about to enter pandemic

#

Do another finisher, then garrote

#

And hit the 2

#

Is what I’d assume you do

thick sail
#

Would this also be true in M+? I've found I can drop multiple 7 CP ruptures on different mobs quickly if I get lucky / semi aim for the animacharged points using Poisoned Knife

hollow river
#

I just wouldn’t use poisoned knife

#

Ever

#

Unless your out of range of 1 mob/boss

thick sail
#

Unless out of range and close to capping energy, right

hollow river
#

Yeah

thick sail
#

Well I guess that's fair

#

Less fun but good to know

hollow river
#

Kyrian just isn’t good for sin as it stands right now

kindred rapids
#

I didn't even have it bound until recently

hollow river
#

The other 2 specs have better ways of hitting all the charges CP

thick sail
#

You guys are certain Poison Knife can crit and procs Seal Fate? I've only been Kyrian a few days, but I swear I've never seen it generate 2 CP

hollow river
#

I don’t know I’ve never seen it do more than 1 cp

#

It’s just a bad spell tbh

thick sail
#

Another inquiry, if I may: why doesn't my WeakAura show when the 5th combo point is animacharged?

#

It shows all the others

gusty mirage
#

because it doesn't empower the 5th

#

ER does 2, 3, or 4

#

resounding clarity does all 3

thick sail
#

Resounding clarity, yeah

gusty mirage
#

afaik it only charges 5 if you're playing deeper stratagem? idk I haven't touched kyrian since like February

thick sail
#

I guess to clarify, when I'm specced into Deeper Strategem, I think that makes

#

Yeah

#

You said it before I could

gusty mirage
#

might just be a bug tbh

thick sail
#

It does show up on the standard CP UI, just not in the WA

gusty mirage
#

oh

#

might be a WA thing

#

I know up until the WA alpha was released it wasn't showing more than 1 empowered CP

thick sail
#

Yeah, I'm thinking so, but I don't know anything about how to fix it

gusty mirage
#

can't, it's an issue with the actual addon

#

not the weakaura you're using

thick sail
#

Do WA work like a mod where you have to update it every so often? or is it constantly updated on the fly? Because I installed this WA at the start of SL and have never changed it

you know there's someone out there that took their blood shard out

for that fight

gusty mirage

ye half my guild

lol

slow marsh

tell them to put it back in and easy one shot

literally

gusty mirage

I'd rather they put their brains back in

How much damage was the deathly shadows bug doing?

They’re truly demonic techers tho

balmy condor
misty holly

Was it only extra damage during the first activation of snd?

balmy condor

Yeah

Was opener dps and that’s it

deathly was fine tbh

not deathly

outer cairn

oh

just so they can use vanish again in the opener ?

this sounds extremely complicated lol

for just 1% gain?

can a mod remove my sub role please so my name is in red. i don't play sub anymore

I got it

oh ty. yeah i was clicking the reaction thing again to see if that would do it but then that didn't work so i was like hmm

glass tulip

starting night 1 of sylvanas prog tomorrow and im shakin in my boots

slow marsh
#

now is a good time to remove sub role lmao

outer cairn
#

done and done

#

i like sub, its always fun to play at times and I could probably run double syl daggers now but i like sin more at the moment

glass tulip
#

This pic was very funny to me. I was basically holding cds the whole fight for super duper controlled damage

#

but it says something about what spec im good at 🤣

slow marsh
#

meh doesn't mean as much as you think

glass tulip
#

but now I have 300 pulls of sylvanas to sit and think about my life choices

#

while learning where to put my vendettas

slow marsh

im low key praying that i can get into a new guild before we start sylv prog

better than i'll ever be

You want to trial with us? :)

Man, re-progging on aotc blows

Someone please kill me

You got this bro :)

alpine latch
#

Oh, I'm fine

glass tulip
#

on tank yet? or are you still a yellow man

alpine latch
#

My guild sucks

#

Naw, not yet.

#

The problem is, I'm like our entire raids damage

#

So if I swap, we're fucked

#

And won't be killing bosses

slow marsh
glass tulip
#

are the guild your long time friends?

alpine latch
#

Yup. GM was a groomsman in my wedding

glass tulip
#

Dang

alpine latch
#

Been with them off and on since Vanilla

glass tulip
#

my recommendation was gtfo so that probably is a bad alternative XD

slow marsh
#

Yeah palmer boi in a rough spot

glass tulip
#

no pressure just lmk

slow marsh
#

But since it's irl friends there's really only two things you can do, loosen up on your expectations and just try to have fun and chill, or try and make more of a push to bring in new raiders

@alpine latch Was sort of the same boat. Joined the old guild I was in right before SL came out and raided with them in nathria and stuff. They were apparently pretty good in BfA but I was way ahead of most of them in Nathria. Then with SoD, I wanted to progress and they were really struggling heroic and I was pugging heroic clears multiple times a week for different toons and it was killing me trying to get so much done. So I had to just say screw it and moved my rogue. Most my other toons are still there, but my main was about progressing him

slow marsh
alpine latch
#

I wound up going Horde in 9.1 but I missed everyone and came back. Gave up CE for these aholes

outer cairn
#

If you're friendship is solely based on being in the same guild on a game I wouldn't call that much of a friendship

#

your^

restive bone
# glass tulip while learning where to put my vendettas

pretty much on cd. you get 2 in p1 if your raid doesn't push quickly. you can send vendetta on both boss phases and pot the first one in p2. from there, just on cd. You can save the second to last vendetta for lust depending on how fast your raid kills sylv

alpine latch
#

It's not just based on the guild

outer cairn
#

I hear ya. Its a tough choice. It took me a month to figure out that I needed to move my Rogue to progress. I never thought I'd get mythic boss kills.

#

but a lot of ppl weren't serious, we were constantly pugging people because lack of recruitment and they were wiping on soul render when i already had aotc. I have limited play time as it is. Sounds like its not a guild problem but a GM problem. If he's to stubborn to make change then maybe the rest of you have to force the change with or without him

glass tulip
#

Wait @slow marsh you cant make this shit up

#

this is what I have on rn 🤣

slow marsh
#

Hahaha Pog

glass tulip
#

That is the mark of a good assassin rogue

slow marsh
#

I just changed to that this week too

outer cairn
#

I've been wanting to go get some white pieces to include the hood so i can get a storm shadow look

glass tulip

oooh, that'd be clean

getting similar vibes here

as sub

sharp zodiac
#

@slow marsh are you guys close to Sylv where you at now

#

Did you kill fate

slow marsh
#

yeah we started KT and had a p3 pull

sharp zodiac
#

We had our 2nd 259 bow drop for our other hunter last night. Our raid is feeling blessed Prayge

outer cairn
#

can't even get a 246 leggo bow

sharp zodiac
#

KT feels like shit eh not being able vendetta on pull

slow marsh
#

they have me staying up so i dont have that issue xD

sharp zodiac
#

Excuse me

slow marsh
#

yeah

sharp zodiac
#

Who is your downstairs team

#

Wtf

slow marsh
#

venth boomie bm hunter sub rogue

#

something else

sharp zodiac
#

Just 3???

glass tulip
sharp zodiac
#

I mean we 3 heal KT so we have extra DPS for up

#

But we do double rogue feral Druid, DH

#

Then we bring the boomy down on the 60-20 burn

#

I mean consider yourself blessed downstairs sucks ass

#

But your venth boomy is fucking useless on at least one of the two big burns???

alpine latch
#

I need to find an Alliance parsing community

#

My Sylvanas parse is shit

sharp zodiac
alpine latch
#

My guild? Only me that would be interested in it

#

Maybe 1-2 others but no one has expressed interest in it

sharp zodiac
#

I just mean if you guys are struggling Eternal Kingdom on Proudmoore has plenty of teams looking for players

slow marsh
#

yeah their strat is troll rn

sharp zodiac
#

Are you just playing CT then?

slow marsh
#

yeah

#

i mean my cds line up super nice for it

#

and as long as they live downstairs they kill it fine

alpine latch
#

lol

#

I just like seeing orange and pink numbers

small basin
#

wtf is a parsing community

alpine latch
#

Exactly what it sounds like

small basin
#

you just do heroic or soemthing for top logs?

alpine latch
#

Yup

small basin
#

fair enough

alpine latch
#

I'm all purple/orange except for Sylv and it's triggering me hard

grim jay
#

just use pugs to get good parses if you want good hc ones since you can just basically ignore mechanics as long as you deal enough damage

#

and they wont kick you 😄

alpine latch
#

Finding good pugs on heroic Sylv is a struggle

grim jay
#

you can aswell join a boost group and earn some gold while boosting others and getting logs in

alpine latch
#

Not sure my logs are good enough

#

I'm only 86% overall

#

My Sylv logs are dragging me down

grim jay
#

I think they only want like 80-ish overall? not sure tho, need to try

#

would be the most efficient way certainly

alpine latch
#

I can always try

grim jay
#

as you wont get more trys in any other way and you earn gold

alpine latch
#

Helps that I can loot funnel everything including EoN I guess

grim jay
#

they pretty much dont care, since you will be boosting multiple sylvanas in a couple hours

alpine latch
#

Yeah, the other downside - I'm alliance

#

Only like 1 community even sells those I think

odd heath
sharp zodiac
#

ASC is heroic 92% and 5/10m

alpine latch
#

Do they sell Alliance? Almost every community I've seen is Horde only at this point

sharp zodiac
#

ASC has a good alliance community yeah

alpine latch
#

Yeah, I'm not 5/10M and I'm not 92% overall in heroic

#

I wouldn't qualify

odd heath
#

Being alliance is tough tbh, hope we have cross faction raiding on 9.2 (or 10.0), would be better for everyone at this point

sharp zodiac
#

Cross faction going to be 10.0 no shot they do it in 9.2

odd heath
#

Very very optimistic to be 9.2, realistic 10.0 lol

sharp zodiac
#

I can see the gold text across the screen for the trailer now.

#

It’s a giant selling feature and they make the most money from expac release

#

That’s mega re sub time

alpine latch
#

Eh, most people I know are happy in other games and aren't coming back no matter what happens

visual prairie
#

will they come up with some lore to explain it? or are they at this point "just let them do whatever. we need money"

odd heath
#

Most people I know would come back if the game state was better

sharp zodiac
#

My tinfoil hat theory would be time jump. Crazy turaylon

visual prairie
#

poor world first raiders now will be required to have one of each class and every race raid ready

sharp zodiac
#

They’d just play mechagnome dwarf or Night elf

#

we are using 20 dwarves on this fight

#

Max and Preach both talked about it a lot

#

I'm bummed. One of the guilds I was going to be a backup for just announced they are extending for the forseeable future and not reclearing at all

lavish lichen
#

Keep trying bud, now is the perfect time to climb guild ranks

#

Guilds are bleeding players

#

And imo even if they don’t reclearing and are a good guild try to stick around they might need someone for progression

glass tulip
#

Alliance classes are really good

#

dark iron dwarves and night elves are NUT

glass tulip
#

when the entire raid is 248+ ilvl it isnt worth it to reclear anymore

#

for us*

alpine latch
#

Yeah, it sucks

#

I was hoping to get some experience in Mythic, but IDK if that's going to happen anymore

#

Not without buying the kills

#

And evne then they'd probably just tell me to die

Hey guys, Painsmith boss, using FoK to spread poisons to balls is good idea or just tunnel vision? I mean for bigger Winds of winter dmg not poison dmg.

balmy condor

Just funnel

FoK on balls is good to build combo points, should do it regardless even though it opens up the possibility of your Winds proccing on a ball

balmy condor

Yeah

Just not worth trying to spread things

also vendetta on first boss burn or tin man

@gusty mirage 0 procs in 35 pulls /cry

#

Is there something I'm missing here? I sim like 900 dps lower as assa than outlaw, I feel like they should be close as my gears similar in both specs.

outer cairn
#

@spice spire so besides opener, I should still use trinket on cd right, not pair it with flag and vendetta?

spice spire
#

Correct

#

Send it on cooldown

spice spire
#

That’s not the ST talent

#

Also should try mfd

make a macro that literally says fucking send it when i push the button

@balmy condor Wispr does Mastery affect envenom?

balmy condor
#

Yes

outer cairn
#

so weird that obe/mfd was simming higher the other day, now DS/mfd is beating it

balmy condor
#

Of course

strange python
balmy condor
#

Why is that the third time I’ve been asked if mastery affects envenom in the last 24 hours

strange python
#

i fucked up the link woops

#

what's bis assa sim now anyway?

#

I got 252 arachnid from vault and kt neck so I guess im not missing much anymore

#

just sylv daggers

#

and phial

outer cairn
#

because i haven't asked you a fourth yet. Well the difference in sim between Obe and DS is minimal. like 30 dps for me. so i guess its more of do I wanna flag more and have more melee damage or do I want winds to do more

mortal pike
#

oh

#

LOL

strange python
#

you should be like 500 behind outlaw as assa in sims I think

mortal pike
#

how did I miss that, ty.

balmy condor
strange python
#

roughly idk

mortal pike
#

Yea I kind of figured.

strange python
#

if equal gear

spice spire

Your outlaw gear looks a touch better as well

very slightly

what do you usually raid as

i mean assa is fine, for every fight, same as the other 2 specs

#

but if you usually raid as outlaw/sub you might want to stick with what you're more comfortable with for that fight

mortal pike
#

outlaw

sharp zodiac

You’re very much a boss damage slave

just curious

balmy condor

It isn’t

We’re slow to kill

So lust with 2t is better than list with 1t because we need the damage tbh. Recall doesn’t happen until skyja iirc so you avoid that

balmy condor

You lust when she comes down that’s 3 target
