slow marsh
#

We just had first weekend of KT last weekend

brazen zodiac
#

slow marsh
#

brazen zodiac
#

how come u applyin to diff guilds :o

slow marsh
#

Been a long time coming but I've been dragging my feet about it

#

But mostly cuz schedule

brazen zodiac
#

ah

#

yeah 10 to 1 am startin to get too late for me too with work

slow marsh
#

Mine is just weekends don't work anymore now that social things are coming back

#

Wife kinda hates wow cuz we can't ever do anything on fri sat

spice spire
#

Time to fix ASAP

void carbon
#

Can Dashing scoundrel work for M+

spice spire
#

Not well, no

slow marsh
void carbon
#

what should i use for M+

spice spire
#

Zoldyck’s is a good selection, but if venthyr it’s recommended obedience for prio damage

#

So for like tyran weeks

#

Or even just top in general

void carbon
#

ok and what about raiding ive notice every rogue is using Dashing scoundrel

#

Can doomblade compete with the venthyr lego

spice spire
#

Dashing is good but obedience is also good

#

Doomblade cannot

void carbon
#

Thank you

Of course they are

idle shard
#

How much of a dps difference is there between assa and sub for M painsmith?

balmy condor
#

Realistically not much

#

Not that it matters anyway

#

Painsmith isnt a dps check anymore

#

If you get dps checked on painsmith you probably can’t kill the eye either

idle shard
#

Lmao

#

I wanna try sin again but

#

My frost set is rank 3

#

Ive been playing it on heroics with blood tho

#

How hard u think id be memed if I go sin with blood set vs painsmith? Lmao @balmy condor

balmy condor
#

Idk if people would notice too much

idle shard
#

What leggo should I use since not Frost set?

#

Obed or doom

balmy condor
#

On painsmith definitely not obed

#

Doom and dashing are both fine

strange python
idle shard
sand sigil
#

without frost gems doomblade would still be better right? like the main thing to make dashing bis was the dom sockets wasn't it?

#

well dashing was close to doomblade before the gems iirc but definitely worse

limber lion
#

Correct

balmy condor
#

Dashing was within margin for a lot of people

#

Frost just made it noticeably better

#

Necro doomblade hard carries tho

#

@balmy condor Hey Whispyr, I wanted to ask you if you guys used Ask Mr Robot's spell database thingy? I only found out recently they have a repository of spell and item interactions and formulas. Do you guys use that in sims etc?

balmy condor
#

Ask mr robot is a terrible company

#

I would rather drown than use their shit

novel arrow
#

Is there an alternative to where we can find spell and item formula's and the like?

#

Didn't know that.

ok

#

So any guesses on 9.2?

#

Is march a fair guess?

#

Any more informed guesses?

oak sky
#

nah nobody really knows yet

#

I am trying to decide

#

whether I can farm Mythic for the next 3 months. Or am I going to lose my mind.

#

I'm probably going to lose my mind.

Need to play outlaw to keep the fights fresh. 😄 Nightfae outlaw. Doesn't get more out there than that!

#

ok Gn everyone. Hope u all have a good day.

yo i heard zerocool was playing nightfae sin in keys

#

is that the play now for m+?

novel arrow
#

I dont know which zerocool you're talking about.

#

But the zerocool I know is an old man

#

XD If nightfae sin is real I'm gonna eat a shoe.

kind talon

inside joke

#

nightfae is dead for all specs

#

worst cov

alpine radish
#

Is Frost set basically mandatory for zold lego sin in raid? Fairly new to rogue and haven't played sin at all yet so only have t5 blood atm

oak sky
#

you want to run dashing in raid ideally

#

frost set is better for sin pretty much no matter what if you have some crit gear

alpine radish
#

I'm just going to be lacking haste really unless I upgrade all my haste gear as I'm primarily crit vers due to sub gearing

#

I'll start upgrading Frost next as it's universally better across the board maybe not so much sub but still good

#

It's just to keep raiding fresh more than anything

gaunt halo
#

Can anyone recommend some good resources like guides, vods, streams for high lvl assa m+ (preferably not nf assa)?

plain onyx
#

Zerocool and there's no such thing called nf assa 🤓

gaunt halo
#

Does he stream? Found it thanks

digital shale
#

Got blood set on 5 and a lot of crit gear. Frost is only on 2 and a huge downgrade with dashing

peak bobcat
#

Frost is normally equal or pulls ahead on tier 4

digital shale
#

Right now with blood sub is like 11.4k dps and assa around 10.6
Feels like a huge difference

gusty mirage
#

Ye the dif is in the shard set rank

#

My sub sims around 11.6 and my sin sims at 11.2

#

But sub is more damage this tier so you have to take that into account as well

young spade
#

So can someone explain to my why exactly I should be pooling on my envenoms if I'm not having any issues getting full use of the increased poison crit window without pooling up to maybe 30-40 energy (depending on crits)

#

It seems like alacrity kinda carries you through low haste areas pretty well so long as you don't have long down times

hollow river
#

#1 so you’re never starved when you need to reapply bleeds

#

#2 so you’re always pooled up for shiv/vendetta/flag windows

#

#3 so you’re not overwriting envenom buff and EP Willy nilly

young spade
#

generally no, like of course I pool a bit when it's getting close to time to slam rupture and garrote back on but I'm speaking really just in terms of outside of cd windows

digital shale
young spade
#

Okay so #3 is what I needed to see

#

Sorry I have a smooth brain and just started rogue this tier

gusty mirage
hollow river
#

Well that’s just how sin works

gusty mirage
#

Even if they were equal

hollow river
#

Spamming envenoms isn’t really good

young spade
#

Seems like mage and rogue have a lot more in common then I thought in terms of buff overlapping so I think I can figure it out

#

Just wasn't sure the reason behind heavy pooling as I haven't really been able to find much about it and it's hard to see that in logs too much

hollow river
#

Generally that’s just how energy type classes work

alpine radish
hollow river
#

Any class that builds a resource

#

Pools at some point or another

young spade
#

Yah this is my first energy class as lmaoo, coming from fire mage and DH

hollow river
#

Well idk how DH building and spending works

young spade
#

A lot different but I can't see myself not playing rogue now and you could just using like a baking roller on your keyboard to play DH

arctic hare
#

Nahhhh, its not thattttt fast

young spade
#

BUT luckily I was pooling for burst windows and stuff already so I'll work on not overlapping

#

I last played DH in bfa

#

and corruption went brrr so it was pretty fast lol

arctic hare
#

One simply has to use demon’s bite and immolation aura, then use chaos strike, blade dance, and eyebeam

#

Yeah, its slower now, but still one of the faster apm specs

young spade
#

fun class though for sure

arctic hare
#

Ahh, bfa was the crazy days for dh

young spade
#

rip slappers

arctic hare
#

With the buff to their st, dh is still a very viable class in raids, and especially so in m+

young spade
#

I haven't played it in forever it seems like but it does slap lol

gusty mirage
#

Ye it shits damage

#

Esp compared to 9.0

young spade
#

Not to mention seeing the hunt start casting while stunned in arenas can make you shit your pants

arctic hare
#

Yeahhhhhhh

#

I wonder, can vanish cancel that cast? Since they lose targeting?

spice spire
#

They can see through stealth iirc

arctic hare
#

Oh shit

#

You’re right

#

God, how’d i manage to forget about that

spice spire
#

Haven’t had that exact scenario pop up but don’t think it cancels

arctic hare
#

But, we could counter it by shadowstepping behind them and stunning them?

spice spire
#

Lowkey think that dh damage is probably stonks next tier monkascheme

arctic hare
#

Yeah, they definitely scale really well with good gear

jaunty steeple
#

didn't they consistently bring 2 havocs to go in the Windfury group in RWF?

arctic hare
#

Oh right, i get to kill heroic sylv again tonight

arctic hare
#

And yeah, i think so?

spice spire
#

That’s some cope tho

#

Demon blades ups the value by 600% Copium

arctic hare
#

Rogues with slicendice along with windfury makes our autoattacks terrifyingly fast

arctic hare
arctic hare
#

lol

bleak sky
#

unless tier set is shit I guess?

arctic hare
#

Maybe

#

But i doubt it will be, because if dh’s still use the burning wound and are stickin venthyr then they can combine that lego with it

#

Their st will become an absolute monster

bleak sky
#

but venth leggo + ca/dgb peepoyes

arctic hare
#

It’ll be absolutely ridiculous

bleak sky
#

wtb 9.2 ptr

arctic hare
#

lol, agreed

spice spire
arctic hare
#

Ca?

#

And I think dbg is the eyebeam reset one right?

#

Now, i wonder what we’ll be able to pull off with obedience and doomblade/dashing

bleak sky
#

ca extends duration of sinful brand apparently

arctic hare
#

Oh

#

Righttttttt

bleak sky
#

twice I mean

#

but we're getting giga offtopic

arctic hare
#

True

#

I feel that in m+ necro with their covenant lego will just fall behind obe and zoldyck m+

bleak sky
#

obe + zoldyck makes me happy

grim hornet
arctic hare
#

I tried using obe instead of zoldyck, and I was doing FAR more dmg than I did

gusty mirage
arctic hare
gusty mirage
#

If they’re in combat they can’t spectral sight

arctic hare
#

Hmm, oxi’s got a point

gusty mirage
#

Only people that can see through vanish are sin rogues if they have vendetta on you

arctic hare
#

Which is super fun lol

#

Ofc, I don’t pvp, so I wouldn’t really know

gusty mirage
#

It is OMEGAKEKW

#

Watch another rogue vanish but panic cause you’re still hitting them

arctic hare
#

Ahahahahaha

#

I really probably should pvp, but first, I’m terrible at it, and second, i can never get the stun right

gusty mirage
#

If you know anyone who’s experienced in arena you can just let them call for your stuns/blind

arctic hare
#

Oh, okay

#

I have just the person in mind lol

gusty mirage
#

Esp if they’re a mage

arctic hare
#

LOL, my brother’s a mage, or rather, is releveling one

gusty mirage
#

Because we’re just CC bots for mages in rogue-mage comps

#

I like rps a lot but you’re kinda throwing if you’re not playing with a mage tbh

arctic hare
#

Which kind of mage, fire or frost?

fickle jolt
#

When I sim, my unholy bonus is still being chosen over frost. About how much crit should I have for frost to pull ahead at equal gem levels or is it purely a sim thing?

gusty mirage
fickle jolt
#

Rank 4. Had a take a month off so I've only been back for about 2 weeks

gusty mirage
#

Unholy will beat frost until you get to R4 at least iirc (assuming both are at least equal)

spice spire
#

It’s going to be a sim yourself thing though

gusty mirage
#

Yea it’s also tied to how much crit you have and how good your gear is

fickle jolt
#

Thanks guys. I'll keep at it now that I know about where that finish line is

spice spire
gusty mirage
arctic hare
#

I have no idea what happened last tuesday

fickle jolt
#

👍

arctic hare
#

But I pumped way more than I usually do

#

Ofc, roh kalo and kt always screw me over, since i be a dedicated down groupie

#

And roh kalo has made a habit of picking me everytime

glass tulip
#

If you actually want a parse you need to let your raid leader call a replacement for you no matter what

arctic hare
#

Ahahahaha

#

Thing is, while I do care about dpsing, rings are far more important

#

Since I’m one of the only ones who can safely do the middle ring without too much fear of dying

peak bobcat
#

You can parse on KT going down

#

But KT doesn’t count anyways towards your average

brazen zodiac
#

to care abou whats important

clever kindle
#

unless you dont have a pally

arctic hare
#

We do have a pally

#

But freedom doesn’t work anymore apparently

clever kindle
#

I was using it on tuesday so

arctic hare
#

They’ve already tried, it doesn’t consume them or somethin

clever kindle
#

it 100% does

arctic hare
#

Weird

clever kindle
#

Normally we just freedom -> cloak since its me or our other rogue on inside ring 90% of the time

Log reviewing purple parses are weird because you clearly understand what to do.
Big couple of things:
You technically missed a cast of vendetta + vanish, this is more flushed out on the eye than the nine as the nine is a small loss. Just be sure to fit them in on CD when possible.
You’re missing some shivs, and this is the biggest issue I see.
Also your garroting at max CP, stop that. Two wasted both fights on that.

#

Other than that

clever kindle
#

rogue damage also just doesnt look as good on heroic eye as mythic eye because you arent getting full value out of dots on the adds and your cooldowns arent lining up

#

You come out of the first intermission and still have a lot of time on vendetta

obtuse ruin

Any assa mythic+ streamers I can watch?

What's people's opinions on m+ anima powers for assasination btw? Worth going for bolstering on explosive/tormented weeks?

Unfortunately none of the fire dude’s powers are really “wow must haves” ya know?

Pretty nice

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

what about mfd is that go to now ? if u are a vamp

Sim it but at higher gear levels it pulls ahead

Also worth swimming obedience with mfd if you have a decent amount of haste

isn't it just time like 2 15s to get a banner? crap I'll find 4 randos and knock that out

spice spire
#

Yeah that’s it

viscid spear
#

Random question, which Warrior spec is looking better atm?

outer cairn
#

i think its arms that wins

#

but they supposed to have buffed fury recently

outer cairn
#

umm I think both

spice spire
#

Overall probably arms

#

It’s killer in raid and has really good cleave and decent aoe

#

Fury aoe is pretty disgusting overall

outer cairn
#

idk, i'm leveling a warrior and I've only played Fury I don't care if Arms beats it. I farmed Antorus for a good while to get the Red Scythe and by god I'm going to use both in my xmog

viscid spear
#

Kinda have a neglected BElf Warrior sitting on my Horde server, feel bad

outer cairn
#

yeah because fury you just WW, ST ability, ST ability, WW repeat for that cleave

spice spire
#

I mean fury is by no means bad either they’re both completely viable

outer cairn
#

yep. i have a buddy that plays fury and he does pretty well with it in raid because he wants to play fury. Just because a spec CAN do insane damage, doesn't mean the PLAYER can make it happen.

outer cairn
#

what i kinda don't like is the fact that any 1H can be xmogged to another 1H and 2H stuff can become polearms and staves, but a dagger is always dagger. Like come on

hollow river
#

Yep

viscid spear
# outer cairn that i was unaware of

It's a bit complicated. Priest & Mage each have two staves as Artifact weapons, so no matter what they have equipped they can mog it into one of those Artifact Staff appearances. Mage has a Sword/OH combo and Priest has a Dagger/OH combo, and those Artifact appearances can only be used if you're using the same pieces, since Mages can't mog a sword into anything else and a Priest can't mog a dagger into a mace

paper bridge
#

do i always hold flag for vendetta? playing ds. I feel like im not getting enough stacks. on sub im always on 28-30 on sin 24-26

clever kindle
#

Pretty sure thats normal because sub has shadowblades

#

Your cp output is just higher

#

If you get super juice rng you can get on the higher end for sin

#

but if you get a 3 pt mutilate what are you gonna do

paper bridge
#

but im parsing 90+ on necro sin and way lower on venth. i guess im fucking up flag

gusty mirage
#

also why are you playing DS?

clever kindle
#

Hmm the fight also matters so something to consider. like it's easier to parse higher on eye with necro then venthyr imo

gusty mirage
#

unless you mean dashing

paper bridge
#

I mean dashing yes 😂

gusty mirage
#

ah

#

are you playing ep/mfd?

paper bridge
#

No vigor

gusty mirage
#

w/ venthyr mfd is more damage

clever kindle
#

thats a big part of it then

gusty mirage
#

it'll get your first flag up to 28-30 stacks

paper bridge
#

You play obedience with mfd? Or stay with dashing

gusty mirage
#

either or

clever kindle
#

MFD with dashing, or obedience, but most people play dashing still I think

gusty mirage
#

I'd sim to make sure because for some people vigor & dashing still sims higher

#

but w/ enough gear it ends up beating vigor for dashing too

clever kindle
#

or on fights where you are focused on burst windows vs consistent dps

gusty mirage
#

opener slows down a bit, but you make up for it w/ better flag windows

clever kindle
#

@gusty mirage whats your preferred opener for running mfd? it feels slow enough that I could almost refresh garrote before going all in on my burst cds

#

just so I dont have to mid vendetta

gusty mirage
#

I just full send CDs as soon as I can, I go mut > snd > mut > garrote > arcane torrent > flag > rupture > vendetta

clever kindle
#

ok so flag before rupture/vendetta

#

I was probably screwing that up

gusty mirage
#

I mean you can vendetta before the flag, moving those around is like super minimal

#

it's mostly just a system in my brain and anytime I try changing things up my brain melts down

#

but I find vendetta before flag leads to energy capping during that GCD

#

if lust on pull

clever kindle
#

I was casting flag after vanish with full CP then evenoming out of stealth

gusty mirage
#

you want to mutilate out of vanish to maximize MA window for CP generation more-so than the envenom crit

clever kindle
#

so basically get to 3 CP Vendetta, Shiv, Flag, Vanish, Envenom from stealth

#

was what I was doing

#

Yeah ill flip that around

#

I feel like the envenom from stealth thing was a mental holdover I had from last expac maybe

sharp zodiac
#

Mut > SnD >mut> garrote > flag> vendetta > rupture > vanish > shiv > Mut > envenom

#

Mut envenom until you’re at that like 22-24 stack mark which is usually around 2 seconds left of flag then MFD envenom for last stacks

glass tulip
#

I always shiv before the vanish

#

waste of an MA global

outer cairn
#

The difference between Obe and Dashing for me is minimal. It comes down to do you wanna do more melee on the boss or want winds to hit harder?

glass tulip
#

also extra vers and cdr

sharp zodiac
#

Obe is better for burst windows really

#

Fight dependent

tulip pendant
#

Full disclosure I have read a couple guides on rotations and what to do but correct me if I'm wrong are empowered bleeds like rupture and garrote affected by vendetta or am I an idiot and I suggest always refresh right before it expires

outer cairn
#

Not sure how to empower a Rupture, but Garrote w/ subterfuge you don't wanna overwrite unless you are vanishing and reapplying. Correct me if I'm wrong.

spice spire
#

They do more damage while vendetta is up. But like, it doesn’t snapshot to vendetta. So if you refresh it doesn’t stay and give the extra 30% damage for the entire duration. Just until vendetta ends

outer cairn
#

^ in the open for ST, garrote will come off unless you refresh it because of its timer. Rupture though at 4-5 you should be able to focus all of your vendetta into muts and envenoms before you need to refresh rupture.

How do you sim different theotar rolls against each other? I know I see it in here every day but now I need it 🤣

#

think thats the tea thing. least what i was told

glass tulip
#

Yes, ty

#

thats what I was looking for

oak sky
#

correct

#

i simmed it the other day

oak sky
#

you need to put in your simc string first though

spice spire
oak sky
#

if you want to see whats better than nadjia i would sim that too

gusty mirage
outer cairn
#

but see i shiv, mut to 4-5 then vanish > envenom > mut > envenom > mfd > envenom

oak sky
#

small changes wont make a big dps difference, but oxi is giving you the recommended opener

limber lion
#

That's what I do as well except I Vanish immediately after tye Shiv

outer cairn
#

i try to do it. hard to retrian my brain on that

limber lion
#

But like said

#

It does not matter whatsoever to be honest

outer cairn
#

i mean its really do you want two envenoms to benefit from MA or two Muts

glass tulip
#

I'm a 2 envenom gamer

oak sky
#

with mfd 2 envenom, without 2 mut

#

🙂

outer cairn
#

ugh i wouldn't even try to make my brain work that hard

oak sky
#

just play how you want

limber lion
#

Envenom is a boring ass finisher

#

More CP from Muti = more Envenoms

#

see, better

clever kindle
jaunty kayak
#

hey.. uhm .. how should i play myth KT ? hold vend and flag for the add on the platform? but all on pull?

limber lion
#

It really depends how much damage you need and where

#

If you need damage downstairs, feel free to hold for those phases (between phases you can sometimes slam a flag, but hold Vend)

jaunty kayak
#

alright.. ill try for the first pull.. i guess, safer variant is to just hold vend for the phase?

limber lion
#

Really depends on how much dps you have there already. I didn't use cds because we had boomies and others already blasting it

frosty bridge
#

pushing boss damage is also kinda important

limber lion
#

KT still has to phase in time

#

Yoy don't need cds for the last one though

outer cairn
limber lion
#

So feel free to slam after the secons remnant

slow marsh
#

If you play obedience and use cds on pull, flag will be up for intermission

limber lion
#

:')

frosty bridge
#

I mean at least not for us xD

#

always like 15 seconds off

small basin
#

in aoe with no prio target should i stop using shiv?

oak sky
#

no

#

just use it as a builder

slow marsh
#

It still increases your poison dam so still use it on CD

small basin
#

ok ty

subtle tundra
#

any finger collectors in the chat

limber lion
#

Man could set up a shop

hollow river
timid cloud
#

All the rings except the one you want. feelsEUman

cerulean nest
#

our windfury boi had to hold a lockout on his shaman so no windfury this entire reclear

#

feels v bad

glass tulip
#

Couldve just had any alt hold it, no?

timid cloud
#

Yeah, all they have to do is get tied to the ID # by stepping inside of the instance.

sharp zodiac
#

imagine even having a windfury

timid cloud
#

So you could've even had a 145 rat alt hold it. RIP

cerulean nest
#

sorry i mispoke. he held it on an alt, but has to go resto this reclear because of roster stuff

#

same result lol

#

no windfury

slow marsh
#

and he has the bis setup anyways wym memer

timid cloud
#

I see a 246 Arachnid.

slow marsh
#

252 painsmith tho

#

i think that bloodoath is actually better than painsmith too

timid cloud
#

Yeah, they're about the same, I think blood has a bit more crit.

slow marsh
#

yeah it does

#

you're right though arachnid would be ideal but i believe it's within 10 dps or something

#

mostly just depends on what neck / belt setup he has

#

gonna be fun when next tier our crit stacking shenanigans swings back to haste

timid cloud
#

Yeah, just give me a couple expedients...

slow marsh
#

i'm actually itching for some ptr news unlike ever before tho

#

All we're getting right now is more of the same pitchfork mob going after evil Bobby

sharp zodiac
#

Its either today tomorrow or the week of 28th

#

Sure aint getting it next week

slow marsh
#

Yeah ofc

#

Gonna be the next week probs

#

I mean

#

the week after

#

you know what i mean

sharp zodiac
#

Week after thanksgiving

#

ye

hollow river
#

We need 200% haste

slow marsh
#

We can probs get it with iqd next tier

hollow river
#

So I can play exsanguinate

slow marsh
#

nanannananannananan chill

limber lion
slow marsh
#

What we need is talent rework

#

Not "we need x stat to play x"

limber lion
#

Exsang requires a massive buff

#

And I'm all for it

hollow river
limber lion
slow marsh
#

But I am excited for EP/ DS gang to rise next tier

limber lion
#

and that's not enough to make Exsang good

#

You also need borrowed power like Shrouded Suffocation or something

#

With the current systems and Exsang numbers, we will never ever play the talent

oak sky
#

Tier set enabling exsang

limber lion
#

Even with 3235478905782439524679854293786543269785489766798% of haste

hollow river
slow marsh
#

With as much as people talk about SS i'm starting to believe it's possible they add it as a tier bonus

hollow river
limber lion
#

I hope to god they add a bleed interaction

oak sky
#

Dont trust the cope

slow marsh
#

It would be lazy

#

But

oak sky
#

Its gonna be some random thing

slow marsh
#

I'm leaning lazy bonuses over creative

oak sky
#

Either brand new or some lame damage increase

hollow river
limber lion
#

2 piece = Garrote gives 3 cp
4 piece = Garrotes used from stealth deal 400% more damage

oak sky
#

Theres no way its an old "creative" power

limber lion
#

something

#

to do with bleeds

slow marsh
#

Garrote gives 3cp 0.o

limber lion
slow marsh
#

then our ER dreams will surely be dead

oak sky
#

U mean

#

Kyrian

slow marsh
#

Oh I wasn't playing then so idk how it works

gusty mirage
oak sky
#

Nobody has that dream

limber lion
#

Can't wait.

slow marsh
#

I would love to be able to play Kyrian on sin

gusty mirage
#

god that'd be so good

oak sky
#

I wouldnt :)

limber lion
#

Probably gonna be some boring ass passive ass garbage ass boring ass shit

hollow river
#

Kyrian is fun

slow marsh
#

Kyrian is just more interactive idk I enjoy it

#

but it's bad

oak sky
#

And we would have to go rc next patch

oak sky
hollow river
slow marsh
#

RC wouldn't be terrible though

spice spire
#

I wouldn’t mind shrouded as a bonus

limber lion
#

rc?

slow marsh
#

Not as good as dust obed gang ™

gusty mirage
#

inc

oak sky
#

Kyrian leggo cev

spice spire
#

No

limber lion
#

all my homies hate double dose

spice spire
#

Resounding clarity joeagony

gusty mirage
slow marsh
#

Idk I like the idea of slamming 7cp envenoms in shiv window but yeah i'm with you guys i'd rather make a move more towards bleeds over the poison stuff

gusty mirage
#

all we got left is scent of blood, shrouded suff, double dose, and I think ttk?

spice spire
#

WE CAN STILL HAVE AHROUDED

#

Blood of the enemy tho?

limber lion
#

echo is pretty big

hollow river
#

Guys

gusty mirage
#

oh true

spice spire
#

No fucking idea how that would be a set bonus

gusty mirage
#

I think katar is their shitty attempt at replacing echoing

limber lion
#

Blood of the Enemy felt great to press

hollow river
#

Guys I have an idea

limber lion
#

Especially after grinding that shit for fucking hours upon hours

hollow river
#

Just give us BFA sin back

limber lion
#

6 SS garrotes, BOTE

#

dank

hollow river
#

Exact same

slow marsh
#

Yo oxi I am talking to someone on a52 later to join their guild maybe

spice spire
#

Yes man

slow marsh
#

soon we will have triple rogue keys

gusty mirage
slow marsh
#

soon ™

gusty mirage
#

I'm okay with that

spice spire
#

Oxi on sulking though kekl

#

Yo triple rogue top

limber lion
spice spire
#

Actually high key busted

limber lion
#

did you even play the game back then

#

lol

gusty mirage
#

ye

#

and I hated it

limber lion
#

why does everyone hate exsang

#

like legit

slow marsh
#

I didn't and I hate it

limber lion
#

it's the best ability we have

#

the only ability

spice spire
#

I hated exsang at the time but I was infinitely worse

limber lion
#

that actually changes our rotation

slow marsh
#

I would love it if it affected all bleeds though

spice spire
#

I think now

oak sky
#

Aoe exsang would be so fun

spice spire
#

I’d love that shit

slow marsh
#

ala veinripper anima power

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

Exsang is legit fucking goated

gusty mirage
#

I'm a creature of habit

limber lion
#

I mean you can keep your dogshit alacrity if you want

#

I'll gladly take Exsang and play with it

hollow river
#

Oxi boomer oxi boomer

limber lion
#

and minmax shit with it

#

than have some passive ass boring ass garbage ass shit again

gusty mirage
#

they'd have to really really buff exsang to make it compete with alacrity

slow marsh
#

I don't prefer alac and I do prefer playing inside of windows so I should like exsang

oak sky
#

45s cd sounds a little unfun

#

But hey

limber lion
#

why

#

flag 90s

oak sky
#

Lines up weird

slow marsh
#

But the rebellious anti-mainstream part of me doesn't like exsang

oak sky
#

Oh right

#

I mean

#

Idk

slow marsh
#

flag wont be 90s in 9.2

limber lion
#

I've heard a lot of people complain about Exsang who never even played it properly

#

and just shit on it

gusty mirage
#

I mean I despise MFD

limber lion
#

because apparently it's cool to shit on it

#

and I don't get it

gusty mirage
#

but I still play it

oak sky
#

Im not complaining

gusty mirage
#

so here we are LULW

oak sky
#

Ive never played it

limber lion
#

it's legit the best thing we have in the game

slow marsh
#

false EP is

oak sky
#

It sounds like it would be cool as an option

slow marsh
#

EP literal best talent

oak sky
#

With adjustments to either us or borrowed power

gusty mirage
#

I mostly just hated exsang because it changed the rotation up and I was m+ monkey who stacked severe and strikethroughs

limber lion
#
  1. It alters our rotation
  2. It forces us to track timers differently and think about timers differently
  3. Allows for insane energy regen in single target and aoe situations
gusty mirage
#

the thought of farming all those echoes to get expedients

oak sky
#

M+ monkey poggers

limber lion
#

I mean

#

exsang was not great

#

unless you have 9x Expedient III

#

no point to ever play it

gusty mirage
#

ye

limber lion
#

and thus, no point to shit on it either

#

okay I played Exsang with 2x expedient

#

stfu

#

no

gusty mirage
#

nah I'll still hate it

hollow river
slow marsh
#

Oxi just hates anything that's different

hollow river
#

That

gusty mirage
#

I never said it was bad

slow marsh
#

He hates theo for literally no reason

limber lion
#

I also hate money, weed, food and water

oak sky
#

Its really sad we can go an entire expac without seeing a few talents and nothing happens

gusty mirage
#

Mr. Resounding Clarity over here

hollow river
#

I hate Theo

limber lion
#

I feel like it's dumb to hate on something that you've never actually played with

hollow river
#

For no reason

limber lion
#

like hating a shadow priest talent

#

when you've never played shadow priest

oak sky
#

Venom rush kekw

slow marsh
#

I'd rather be Mr Resounding Clarity than Mr Night Fae tbh so thanks

#

oh god

limber lion
#

but idk

oak sky
#

Dude the shadow priest article on wowhead is so funny

slow marsh
#

I can already see it now

#

our tier set

timid cloud
#

I played with full exped & I hated it.

slow marsh
#

makes venom rush good

#

paojdfsvnapdofijbnapoiuvuhfpaoiufyewoihj

#

gross

timid cloud
#

Even with x2 cara daggys.

#

C R I N G E

oak sky
#

Hes complaining that searing nightmare ruins their aoe rotation when it literally is their aoe rotation

hollow river
#

Wtf is exped

limber lion
#

Carapace daggers were not expedient daggers to start with

oak sky
#

But spriest aoe is like sub rogue

gusty mirage
#

I know people who loved expedient stacking exsang and tbh I support them fully

limber lion
#

so you didn't play full expedient

loud silo
#

hey coming back from a break and i dont mean to bother anyone, but do we have a pin somewhere for bis sin cov/conduit/leggo for 9.15

timid cloud
#

No, I meant when you cleansed them.

#

Because tentacle was dog.

limber lion
#

how does you having carapace daggers have to do with anything?

gusty mirage
#

any gushing wounds enjoyers pre-vendor nerf? sad

timid cloud
#

Because they were BIS for sin because of the stats they gave, like even while being goated geared.

limber lion
#

I also hated the awful severe + strikethrough echoing blades spam in m+

gusty mirage
#

I had 2 and then they announced vendor and insta nerf

limber lion
#

even with 2x carapace daggers

timid cloud
#

Oh lord.

slow marsh
#

The only wow boomer rogue stuff I can talk about is Deathbringer's will

timid cloud
#

Echoing Blades....

#

Whew.

limber lion
#

that's not true

gusty mirage
timid cloud
#

I just want SS back.

gusty mirage
timid cloud
#

3 CP per garrote.

limber lion
#

I mean it is

timid cloud
limber lion
#

But it also helps that they had higher ilvl

slow marsh
timid cloud
#

Yeah.

gusty mirage
#

I mean lets be real

#

if the set bonus makes exsang playable

#

we'll all switch whether we like it or not

slow marsh
#

mfd says hi

limber lion
#

Well

timid cloud
#

Did you use Plumage or did you use that other trinket, Cev?

#

GALECALLERS BOON

#

You seem like a boon kinda dude.

arctic hare
limber lion
timid cloud
limber lion
#

weekly box plumage

#

and Vita

gusty mirage
#

tbh

arctic hare
#

I have always wanted to use exsang tbh

slow marsh
#

I like it better than vigor but yeah the fact that so many people still play vigor just cuz is exactly my point

#

even if exsang is viable people still wont play it

gusty mirage
#

they will if its the better choice

slow marsh
#

theo has been the better choice for so long

limber lion
#

that's a dumb thing to say

slow marsh
#

and people still play nadjia

gusty mirage
#

lets be real alacrity is boring as fuck

slow marsh
#

i'm not saying everyone will not play it

gusty mirage
#

nadjia isn't that far behind theo though

slow marsh
#

obvi us gamers will play it

gusty mirage
#

where it'll actually matter

limber lion
#

yeah you said "people still wont play it"

#

which is kinda broad

#

and not true

slow marsh
#

people doesn't mean all

limber lion
#

but the fact of the matter is that Theo is not exactly better in every scenario either

#

just because it sims better in 5min patchwork

#

ya'll too focused on patchwork simmies

slow marsh
#

nadjia is actually prioritized higher in 5min sim than theo

timid cloud
#

Fights with Adds too...

slow marsh
#

theo has value in aoe, downtime,

gusty mirage
#

I mean so does nadjia, crit has massive value in aoe

limber lion
#

lol

#

an encounter where you get thrill seeker during cooldowns

#

is much better than a theo umbrella maybe procing

slow marsh
#

yeah true as long as your 10 second crit window pops with adds up

timid cloud
#

^

gusty mirage
#

Thrill seeker bugged out in one of my sylv pulls btw

#

and procced on pull

#

for me w/ lust

#

and pot

slow marsh
#

pog

limber lion
#

an encounter where you don't get Thrill Seeker because of intermission

gusty mirage
#

and I was doing 32k dps

#

so

limber lion
#

is a fight that's dog for Nadja

slow marsh
#

of course

timid cloud
#

Thrill Seeker during Painsmith intermisson.

gusty mirage
#

I mean umbrella during painsmith at all

#

how often are you stationary outside of p3 burn

timid cloud
#

Kinda often, actually.

slow marsh
#

yeah but who cares when you have token during painsmith

gusty mirage
#

we must've done a dif fight

slow marsh
#

Theo is just a better soulbind

timid cloud
#

Just simply don't get any traps on you.

limber lion
#

they serve 2 different purposes

gusty mirage
#

I knew I missed a step LULW

#

forgot to pray to the GUID gods

#

there's a clip of my dumb ass back peddling off the platform on painsmith prog floating around

slow marsh
#

I mean yeah the top parses are going to be nadjia probably just because thrill and FF are super strong. Not arguing that at all

#

I'm arguing that theo consistency + defensive value is better for most situations

gusty mirage
#

I mean

#

a 2k absorb isn't really shit in a mythic raiding environment

#

plus I'd argue that the absorb from nadjia for healthstones + health pots is more valuable than a random 2k shield on someone

limber lion
#

Again, they just have different niches

#

The defensives are shit

#

One is an rng proc that gives you some damage

#

One is a calculated proc that gives you a lot of damage

timid cloud
#

Yeah.

limber lion
#

sometimes the calculated proc happens during an awful time where you don't get any value

timid cloud
#

Thanks Theotar.

limber lion
#

thus the other choice becomes the better choice

timid cloud
#

LOL

limber lion
#

but sometimes you have a lot of movement where the value of the shade drops

#

and Nadja gains value

#

just 2 different things

#

and you can honestly use either

#

and do completely fine

#

I wouldn't say one is better than the other

slow marsh
#

Was just gonna post 100 heal parses on prog wipes but yeah no need

limber lion
#

or more consistent than the other

slow marsh
oak sky
#

^^

#

i miss it

gusty mirage
#

but ye tbh I'd be wary about saying one thing is better than the other straight up

#

sometimes we forget that the patchwerk sims are isolated boss events w/ no mechanics or intermissions or whatever

timid cloud
#

I'm going back & forth on Nadjia & Theo for Sylvanas.

#

I've had so many mixed results.

limber lion
#

then make your decision

slow marsh
#

Na I still stand by it but it's not better enough to fight over. Nadjia can be good if you can manage to get value from the procs

limber lion
#

I would use Nadja myself on Sylvanas

#

because with my timers I got it in p3 with all of my cds

#

which is the most important part of the fight

timid cloud
#

Were you able to touch chains at all?

limber lion
#

in p1?

timid cloud
#

Yeah.

limber lion
#

Sure, the second and third set slightly

#

but mainly just sticking to boss

#

she flies away during second chains, third chains happen during dps stop

hollow river
#

that's what i've started doing as default at this point

limber lion
hollow river
#

then it's dps stop?

limber lion
#

depends on timers, if you blast the boss that might cause you to miss out on bl value

#

so play accordingly

limber lion
hollow river
#

huh

limber lion
#

there are no dps stops in p3

#

oh

#

right

#

p1

#

lmao

#

oops

hollow river
limber lion
#

yeh

#

right away when it comes off cd

hollow river
#

yeah

limber lion
#

Flag slightly earlier to get value from the adds

hollow river
#

im worried i won't have it up for BL in p3 though

limber lion
#
  • haste afterwards on top of Vend
hollow river
#

because i'm using on both boss burns in p2

limber lion
#

That's fine

#

when are you lusting

hollow river
#

plat 4

limber lion
#

that's completely fine then

#

that's the normal way

hollow river
#

i assume after veil

limber lion
#

just send Vend on CD, holding last one for lust

#

after veil yeh

#

both times

#

flag on cd

hollow river
#

we keep wiping at 62-67% now

limber lion
#

sync second to last vend/flag and last vend/flag

hollow river
#

nearly 400 pulls

limber lion
#

sheesh

hollow river
#

yep

hollow river
#

that ill fuck up my timers

limber lion
#

Not much chance doing that

#

they should line up pretty well automatically if you send vend/flag on both burns

#

and keep using on cd

#

and syncing the last 2

hollow river
#

kk

#

so it's

limber lion
#

just remember to hold the last cds for lust

#

that's the big thing

hollow river
#

2 desynced flags 1 desynced vendetta

#

?

limber lion
#

it's like:
flag - vend - flag - vend/flag - vend/flag

hollow river
#

yeah

#

3 vend in p3?

limber lion
#

yas

hollow river
#

idk if i can swing that

limber lion
#

wut

sharp zodiac
#

typically

hollow river
#

idk why but

limber lion
#

you send it on cd

hollow river
#

ya

#

but it's not off CD til ~9:30 for first vend

sharp zodiac
#

9:42 platform 2 11:42 Platform 3 and halfway through lust platform 4

hollow river
#

kk

sharp zodiac
#

Basically after the first wail veil combo plat 2

limber lion
#

you don't have to have all cds for when the lust is pressed

#

it lasts for 40s

sharp zodiac
#

Same with platform 3 after wail veil combo

hollow river
#

true

#

knowing my luck she'll be dead half way through the lust

sharp zodiac
#

No youll be fine

#

first kill you'll see the Fury at least

#

How to convince guild to find a kyrian resto and also have him give me KA over the nf mage

#

(who is also the GM)

timid cloud
#

Deal more dam than them.

jaunty steeple
#

send them a big enough cheque I suppose

hollow river
strange python
#

We sell 4 buyers first 8, 2 mounts every week

strange python
hollow river
#

oh wow

#

you guys are fking rich then

strange python
#

I get like 350k a week from our cuts?

limber lion
#

Fair

#

A heroic run was around 600k a pop the first 4 weeks

#

Was pretty dank

hollow river
#

why don't you just share it with everyone

strange python
#

But I also don't get the mount till next tier and it's impossible to parse some fights

hollow river
#

everyone gets 1 whole raid with kyrian druid buff

strange python
#

We don't have a kyrian druid xD

timid cloud
#

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

strange python
#

And our PI goes on our demo lock who is basically rank 1 on every single fight

limber lion
#

:')

strange python
#

Our demo lock is a fucking chad

limber lion
#

he should be r1 if he's getting pi'd

#

filth

strange python
#

Nearly all 100s, doesn't use weakauras

limber lion
#

Nearly?

strange python
#

Tbf to him, all the other demos are getting 2+ PIs

hollow river
#

so

strange python
#

Demo rankings are hilarious

hollow river
#

he should find a way to get 2 pi's too

limber lion
#

All rankings are to be fair

#

They're filthy

strange python
#

I hate external Mera

#

Meta*

limber lion
#

Yup

#

Glad I got my parses before KA was a thing

timid cloud
#

You ever get 30+ Externals & still don't R1?

limber lion
timid cloud
strange python
#

I had like all top 50s before 9.1.5 (never had edge) but it's hard as fuck now with all the speed kills and external spam

limber lion
timid cloud
#

Couldn't be me tho.

hollow river
#

you'd have to afk

strange python
#

Trying to complain not humblebrag!

#

I want PI/KA gone

timid cloud
#

I think the logs should just show natty (Natural damage) logs without externals.

strange python
#

Blizzard seems to actively want to diminish logs

hollow river
#

externals should 100% be removed from the regular parses
