balmy condor
#

bruh

oak sky
#

i still have a couple alts sitting there

thorny pond
#

The people who scope out like TLProto back in the day

bronze pike
#

i mean i could probably get CE if i wanted to, just real life and school and personal stuff gets in the way

drifting cloud
thorny pond
bronze pike
#

which adds to the factor to CE

oak sky
#

last tier i thought i wouldnt have time for a guild but here i am ce

bronze pike
#

mhm

balmy condor
#

I'm getting my first CE on tuesday

bronze pike
#

both my ally guild and horde guild downed M rem and started progging on soulrender

#

so half way there

drifting cloud
#

sure you are Kapp

bronze pike
#

grats whispyr :)

balmy condor
#

SAD ryler no

#

not like this

oak sky
#

HYPERS

drifting cloud
#

best?

bronze pike
#

the issue is, they moved raid day from sat sun morning to friday night and sat morning

balmy condor
#

56% platform 4 boutta lust+pot+double venth boomkin ass blast

bronze pike
#

which isnt..ideal for me, friday night

drifting cloud
#

my friend a guild that is progging soulrender in november isnt getting ce

bronze pike
#

i mean clearly lol

balmy condor
#

it honestly could've died on thursday

#

but we suck

bronze pike
#

im talking about rl factors that effect prog

balmy condor
oak sky
#

shit happens whispyr

#

we wouldve killed a day earlier but our warlock stood in the group with death knives

bronze pike
#

we have no intentions on aiming for CE with 9.2 next year

drifting cloud
#

if you jump to 4th at 56% thats gonna be close

#

its not just automatically dead

balmy condor
#

4th at 56% without lust, without pots, and with the entire raid's cooldowns coming up?

#

I think we can burn 10% in 45 seconds

drifting cloud
#

its enough its just not a free kill

oak sky
#

nah getting to that platform with everyone alive is a free kill

#

you got it whispyr

balmy condor
#

free

#

ryler doomer

oak sky
#

free

#

true

balmy condor
#

dead before thanksgiving

#

100%

drifting cloud
balmy condor
#

I said it last month

#

still true

drifting cloud
#

do you raid wednesday

balmy condor
#

no

oak sky
#

my guild still hasnt done our first sylv reclear

balmy condor
#

oak sky
#

bronze pike
#

oak sky
#

but we might next week since we get skip

bronze pike
#

thats def a sure kill

balmy condor
#

tuesday literally last day for the prophecy to come true

drifting cloud
#

I just checked on our 1st kill we went p4 55.5% she died 1s into raze cast

balmy condor
#

yeah but you guys are trash

drifting cloud
oak sky
#

how long ago did u kill tho

#

was your gear worse?

drifting cloud
#

well it was 3 months ago so yeah probably

oak sky
#

yeah

drifting cloud
#

I mean the dps "check" on her starts in p2

#

its just not a hard one :p

#

doesnt start on platform 4 lol

balmy condor
#

p3 damage best attempt

oak sky
#

demo was dead

#

make him live

#

gg

drifting cloud
#

make you get the lucky 44.5% wipe whispyr

oak sky
#

we had 45.1 wipe once

drifting cloud
#

we had 44.6% wipe

balmy condor
drifting cloud
#

sometimes she just doesnt wanna die

#

funny thing is it wasnt even the spell queing because she was that low before raze

#

we just fucked up arrows

balmy condor
#

if I do less than 10k dps @strange python will wake me up in my sleep and spit on me

drifting cloud
#

doubt you have gear to do 10k

balmy condor
#

only 1 sylv dagger

#

can't do 10k

#

impossible task

drifting cloud
#

my best is still 9.9

oak sky
#

i played bad on my kill

#

lost a flag cast

#

8.9k

balmy condor
#

kyrian impossible to play bad

oak sky
#

sub rogues

balmy condor
#

except that push looked at my logs and found out that I'm actually bad

#

cause I play PV but I don't PLAY pv

#

ya know

oak sky
#

nice

#

👍

balmy condor
#

fucking garbage conduit

#

hate backstab

oak sky
#

do you have to sync your backstab with something

balmy condor
#

you have to backstab after every dance

oak sky
#

you always do that don't you?

balmy condor
#

no

oak sky
#

ok

fallow otter
#

You do more p3 dmg than me, buff monks

#

Lol

oak sky
#

im just hoping we actually get a rekill in tomorrow

timid cloud
balmy condor
timid cloud
#

LOL

balmy condor
#

You can see the active time

timid cloud
#

We had that happen to ours, something something burning rush eating 200k wave damage...same time...same place for 10+ pulls...

#

But that ain't none of my business...

balmy condor
#

There aren’t any waves tho

fathom swift
#

cant believe ur not playing assa whispyr

#

😔

hollow escarp
timid cloud
#

Oh, I thought you meant like p2

balmy condor
fathom swift
#

true

#

that thing looks miserable

#

looking forward to ur writeup

balmy condor
#

kekw it’s a bit aggressive

oak sky
#

@balmy condor i loved how you randomly shit on half the rogue talents in a routine dps thread a few weeks back

balmy condor
timid cloud
#

lol

#

Talents are fucking awful.

balmy condor
#

And I was like uhhhhhhh

#

9.1.5 didn’t impact it

#

At all

#

0 changes

#

What do

fathom swift
#

was this for the weekly wcl post?

balmy condor
#

And he’s like “idk talk about things”

oak sky
#

yeah it was a banger

balmy condor
#

So I just wrote a paragraph shitting on talents

oak sky
#

iirc it was frost set big dam-> talents bad

#

class same

#

👍

balmy condor
#

Yep

#

Flag good

#

Frost good

#

Everything else bad

fathom swift
#

theyre pretty good about letting you write whatever you want

balmy condor
#

I agree

#

It’s nice

fathom swift
#

just dont underrate balance druid in a tier list

oak sky
#

each writer rates their own spec

#

get mad at tettles if boomie is underrated

fathom swift
#

yeah there was just very heated discussion at the start of the tier about it

balmy condor
#

Get mad at bolas for including ret at all

fathom swift
#

😦

oak sky
#

ret is sick

hollow river
#

What site was that for?

oak sky
#

wowhead monkascheme

balmy condor
fathom swift
#

at least ret has a real tier set next tier

hollow river
#

I mean the sin thing, with the guy messaging you

oak sky
#

yeah it looks really fun to me

balmy condor
oak sky
#

i might play some ret as an alt

balmy condor
hollow river
#

Ah I see

#

We won’t have time for alts boys

balmy condor
#

Anshlun is guide writer manager person

hollow river
#

Because we’re spam reporting the underpowered sin set

#

All of PTR

oak sky
#

thats before the patch

#

alt is for after

fathom swift
balmy condor
#

Every % loss of the ret tier gets injected directly into sin tier

hollow river
#

I’m making a warlock

balmy condor
#

Conservation of energy

hollow river
balmy condor
#

Cannot create or destroy dps

oak sky
#

ret still has a cool one even if its nerfed a little right?

fathom swift
#

idk if theres enough there for 2 decent sets tho...

oak sky
#

resetting wake sounds fun

balmy condor
#

And shamans

fathom swift
#

yeah fuck fire

oak sky
#

rsham kekw

fathom swift
#

all my homies hate ranged players

hollow river
#

All my homies hate FoTM

bronze pike
#

as a ret paladin main, i am super excited for new tier set lol

balmy condor
bronze pike
#

shoving a second wake of ashes into our 1 min burst is gonna be super fun

hollow river
#

Tricks of the trade all mages and boomkin a

oak sky
#

arcane intellect, alter time, ice block

hollow river
#

From now on

#

Fuck em

oak sky
#

what about warlock

#

they deserve it too

hollow river
#

Nah they’re ok in my book

oak sky
#

warlock and mage are the raid hero classes

hollow river
#

You only want 1 in your raid

oak sky
#

how is warlock ok

hollow river
#

Because you don’t stack them atm

#

U stack boomies or mages just fine

oak sky
#

you definitely stack 2 demo if you have it

hollow river
#

We don’t

#

Our other lock has been playing dk

oak sky
#

wheelchairing himself :/

hollow river
#

Yep

balmy condor
#

Wait that’s ret

oak sky
#

grip is cool on soulrender

hollow river
#

He’s better at dk tho

balmy condor
#

I thought we moved passed that

hollow river
#

Bro I’m honestly in limbo atm

bronze pike
#

ret is indeed

hollow river
#

We’re trialing another rogue

bronze pike
#

a wheelchair with boosters

#

cause if you aint running horse conduit and talent, then your just crippling yourself

fathom swift
#

just play night fae ret

bronze pike
#

might be a thing next patch

#

fully indulge in the rng, nf lego, final verdict, summer yourself final reck, destroy

#

i think rextroy did it already but with frogs for extra cheese

fathom swift
#

lost me at summer yourself, that's a boomkin cd

hollow river
#

I wonder how many boomkins will actually be made to play kyrian

oak sky
#

0

balmy condor
oak sky
#

just have bear instead

hollow river
#

Since they can play kyrian leggo+dps leggo

#

Idk man

fathom swift
#

i hope they all do

hollow river
#

Kyrian for fire mage

oak sky
#

or casual guilds play rdruid i guess

hollow river
#

Pretty sure that gets used on prog

#

Maybe even RWF

oak sky
#

there will be some sort of kyrian druid

#

at least i think so

hollow river
#

I mean for sure there will be at least a tank or healer

oak sky
#

i kinda doubt we see rdruid

bronze pike
#

you bless yourself, nf lego doubles it so you have a 80% to do 60% additional damage as holy. final reck increases holy damage by 150% stack like 40% mastery, serap to push you to 50+% mastery, wings. wing the lottery

hollow river
#

But tbh idk if I see venth boomie in the race

balmy condor
#

No one tell him

hollow river
#

Tell him what

#

That you saw it?

balmy condor
#

That kindred is dogshit on sub

hollow river
#

Lmfao

oak sky
#

well sin will be good next tier

balmy condor
#

True

#

The tier will get buffed

hollow river
#

Cope harder

balmy condor
#

I will scream about it on every wowhead article until it gets buffed

oak sky
#

it definitely will if its too far behind everything else

#

like for sure

bronze pike
#

its a given alot of tier sets are ognna get buffed and balanced

balmy condor
#

Mage tower guide boutta have a section on buffing tier set

bronze pike
#

its the first ptr build

hollow river
#

Does blizzard read wowhead

balmy condor
#

I mean they read something

#

Obedience wouldn’t have gotten nerfed otherwise

oak sky
#

kojis dms

hollow river
#

We just need someone from the community to get into the new feedback group

balmy condor
#

The feedback thing is bait most likely

oak sky
#

foreverguy prayge

balmy condor
#

Don’t think they’ll actually make changes because of what mr 300 mount andy says in a thread

oak sky
#

maybe not

#

but at least we know they saw what 300 mount andy said

#

yeah but

#

i hope you or guy get a spot

#

and/ or

balmy condor
#

I hope every CF+ from every class discord gets a spot

#

On god

oak sky
#

i dont

hollow river
#

Except boomkin

oak sky
#

i just hope each discord gets at least a rep or 2

hollow river
#

Because they will cry until they’re bis again

balmy condor
#

Hey

#

Tettles cries even when they’re bis

hollow river
#

I know

balmy condor
#

Give the man some credit

hollow river
#

Kinda fucked if u ask me

balmy condor
#

Man looks at venth boomkin this tier and unironically says that being so cooldown reliant is a big downside

hollow river
#

The fact that some classes get more attention than others

#

Is the biggest downside of playing this game IMO

balmy condor
#

My spec is a whole ass raid cooldown

#

But I don’t do damage otherwise

hollow river
#

Look at enhancement shaman

#

The spec plays like a dumpster fire

oak sky
#

hot hands, the class

balmy condor
#

Wdym? They got windfury totem?

#

Looks fine?

hollow river
#

The actual gameplay

#

Is hot trash

fathom swift
#

as an arms reroller this tier i appreciate my enh shaman

hollow river
#

I was going to main enhance for 9.1

#

But I left that guild instead

oak sky
#

i was going to never fotm reroll unless im pushing hof because im not a traitor

balmy condor
#

The gameplay is making sure warriors get wft

fathom swift
#

the most important role in the raid

balmy condor
#

Can’t have mr warrior look at logs and see 97% wft uptime

#

That shit won’t fly

hollow river
#

Our arms warrior dipped

#

Because they tried to sit him for 1 night on sylv

oak sky
#

arms is so good this tier

balmy condor
hollow river
#

All the players playing it are not

#

Prot warrior

oak sky
#

our arms had his armor break on kill

balmy condor
#

Banger

hollow river
#

Our arms was clicking his health stones and pots

#

And most of the time not using at all

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

balmy condor
#

Wait

#

I should start doing that

fathom swift
#

truly the chad class

hollow river
#

Wonder how hard it’s gonna be to get tier to drop

#

Since in the interview they stated that the catch up system would come in later on in the tier

#

Looks like we’re gonna have to rely on solely personal loot for the tier pieces

fallen arch
#

Just to save myself from fat fingering consumables

fallen arch
hollow river
#

If I get benched again because of RNG I’m gonna be pissed

fallen arch
#

Or is that vault only?

hollow river
#

That’s later in the tier

oak sky
hollow river
#

From what was stated in the interview

oak sky
#

its probably a month in or before tbh

hollow river
fallen arch
#

What interview we talking about?

oak sky
#

its not like ur top 20

hollow river
#

I failed my trial because no dom shards

oak sky
#

so cringe

hollow river
#

And that guild is 4/10 rn

oak sky
#

you should be glad you failed

hollow river
#

I left

#

I am

#

Now I’m in a 9/10

#

But Sylvanas needs to die

#

After 400 pulls I’m over it, was over it after 200

oak sky
#

finish strong

timid cloud
#

Still less than some guilds.

hollow river
#

I know but it’s just too much man

#

It’s not that hard

timid cloud
#

Also that’s cringe. Glad to see their demise. Just that petty. 💅

hollow river
oak sky
#

finish strong next week

hollow river
#

With like 3-4 trials

hollow river
#

Gonna try my best to finish it with em

slow marsh
#

My guild just killed so looks like I joined at just the right time

#

Sad I don't get to prog sylv but I feel like I've watched enough rogue pov that I don't really care

hollow river
#

Yeah idk

#

After such a long prog I want that sense of achievement

#

And to kill it with the homies

#

Just gets frustrating

soft shale
#

sylv is kinda sad as a rogue you really have no control over anything dying and also p3 will wipe anyway even if you do good damage

#

doesnt help people clipping veils or missing soaks

#

or daggering the whole raid

fallow otter
#

How does this differ from other classes in p3?

soft shale
#

boomkin can ramp and can heal and soak dhs can ignore veils same as warlocks and mages

#

warriors can also ignore veil priests can mass dispel

#

let me think about more

fallow otter
#

ignore value?

soft shale
#

you jump off veil hits you in the air

#

then come back

#

as dh you just double jump then glide

fallow otter
#

I know dh can do that, but there really isn't any reason to tbh

#

Warrior?

#

Warlocks?

#

Mages?

#

You want them to jump off mid veil and port back?

violet jackal
#

THD did it

soft shale
#

its not i want them to is they CAN

#

as a rogue you can kill someone with step i guess

fallow otter
#

Jump off and step back

soft shale
#

if you feel bloodthirsty

plain onyx
#

guys, could anyone spare a minute and tell me the exact rotation for AOE in m+ please ?

limber lion
#

There really isn't a rotation, you have to play accordingly

soft shale
#

4 garrotes ct keep snd if needed with envenom

#

rupture

#

cry

limber lion
#
  1. Keep SnD up at all times with Envenom
  2. Keep CT's dot up as much as possible, don't spam it
  3. Garrote on cooldown
  4. Rupture everything
  5. Envenom whem mobs are dying instead of applying new bleeds
plain onyx
#

got it.. one more thing, once a mob is pulled, i garrote 4 targets and then do i SnD or CT ?

limber lion
#

You use SnD once in the very first pack of the dungeon

#

Then you always maintain it with Envenoms

#

And by having leftover CP from a previous pack

#

So you use SnD before yoy open up on a new pack

plain onyx
#

or it doesnt matter when

limber lion
#

Then you never let it drop

plain onyx
#

yeah i know i have to snd on the first pack but where do i Snd through the rotation?

#

after i garrote or after CT ?

limber lion
#

I just answered it...

#

Right after the garrotes

slow marsh
#

1 Garret 2 Garret 3 garrets

terse talon
#

garrote bale

lusty bane
#

Any theory crafting ideas for 9.2 for Assa set bonus and legendary combos? Trying to figure out what legendaries to use to make good use of the set bonus. I think the mutilate leggo is a good idea but besides that I can't think of which other leggo to use

#

Maybe "Duskwalker's Patch" would come to good use because our bleeds will tick faster and we can spend more energy

#

maybe Zoldyck could be used as a good execute

balmy condor
#

Those are the ideas

#

Doomblade/dashing and if the 4 piece is strong, maybe Duskwalker

modest shell
#

anyone knows what cd is on vandetta with duskwalker?

limber lion
#

Around one minute

#

It might differ very slightly depending on your profile, ie. talents and gear

#

More energy regen = more cd reduction

modest shell
#

ye just thinking if flagilation will line up with vandeta with that legi combo would proly be good with tier set

limber lion
#

Yeah that's the common consensus

modest shell
#

1 min cd spec is also pog for most raid bosses

limber lion
#

Sure but Duskwalker's lose slight value if you introduce stuff like movement and downtime on a boss

#

And gains value with more targets

#

So it's a bit of a wild legendary

modest shell
#

well obedience is kinda the same right

#

the cd part

limber lion
#

Kind of yeah but not quite

#

Because Flag remains on the target for 12s

#

But Duskwalkers requires constant uptime

#

It's not tied to a period of time where you reduce the cd

#

But rather you reduce it all the time

hollow river
#

Wow I never considered the multi target applications

modest shell
#

ye the cd part is in the window i get that

limber lion
#

During intermission you might lose your bleeds on your targets, which means you gain a lot less energy, which means you can spend a lot less energy which means you reduce the cd a lot less

#

On multiple targets you can have energy saturation, meaning you are gcd-capped and thus get to spend energy a lot faster and thus reducing the cd a lot more

#

But yeah, I can definitely see Duskwalker's becoming meta

#

But it might not be the choice for every single boss.

#

Vigor also gains value from Duskwalkers because it's a flat 10% energy regen increase

#

So that's good news, because all my homies love Vigor

hollow river
#

I’ve been digging the mfd play style

#

But vigor is poggo

limber lion
#

Same

#

Used to despise MfD, but it's quite fun especially on cleave

#

Not the biggest fan of it in heavy AoE

hollow river
#

Agree

modest shell
#

i wanna see how much damage u get from 4 set doe the extra energy from dashing might be a huge dps boost aswell

hollow river
#

I like min maxing it a bit on Sylvanas prog but that’s practically all I’ve used it on kekw

limber lion
hollow river
#

I have a feeling doomblade would be better than dashing

limber lion
#

But you know

modest shell
#

obv depending on crit stack or haste stack i guess

hollow river
#

Especially on cleave

limber lion
#

the energy regen portion of Dashing doesn't matter whatsoever

#

Because Duskwalker's is the portion that is tied to energy

#

if you take Dashing, you can't have Duskies

#

Can't have em both

modest shell
#

zoldyck for execute fights might be huge aswell

#

with 4 set

#

damn so many interresting options

#

gotta see some sims doe

limber lion
#

I highly doubt we'll see Zoldyck in raid

#

It is one of the worst legendaries we have unfortunately

twin kite
#

What about obedience and duskwalkers with the 4 set? Would make flag and vendetta line up quite well

limber lion
#

You can read the discussion we just had around that combo here

twin kite
#

Thanks!

limber lion
#

Just accidentally simmed myself without the frost set

#

9.6k dps without

#

11.6k with

#

literally 2k from the set

#

yikers boys, 9.2 is looking rough

modest shell
#

are u stat optimized for no set doe?

#

might not be as bad with optimal stats

subtle tundra
#

yea its gonna be 1.8k diffence holy shit not so bad

limber lion
modest shell
#

it is for all classes doe

limber lion
#

It's not though

modest shell
#

i can do sim on warlock and arcane mage real quick

limber lion
#

Some benefit more from it than others

#

And the thing is that many classes are also getting insane double legendary combos and/or tiersets

#

We don't really get either

oak sky
#

our raw dps will be higher but proportionally theres a chance we look worse

limber lion
modest shell
#

we get better tier and legi combo than most

#

considering obidience is actayly good

limber lion
#

"actually good"

modest shell
#

look at arcane mage kyrian lego

oak sky
#

that doesnt seem true, but we need to see ptr before coming to any conclusions

limber lion
#

wat

oak sky
#

yeah i think all the mage leggos suck

#

the cov ones

limber lion
#

Sure do

oak sky
#

but that doesnt mean we end up being stronger

limber lion
#

But let's not pretend we don't have a Deathspike on our hands as Necros

oak sky
#

because they all currently look like they have better tier sets

limber lion
#

Deathspike is equally as bad as Harmonic Echo for Arcane

oak sky
#

however

#

our tier could get buffed

#

their leggos could get buffed

#

we know nothing

gusty mirage
oak sky
modest shell
#

deathspike is the same as harmonic echo but kyrian arcane is like a spec for itself its nothing like other covenants completely different playstyle

#

=dead

oak sky
#

either kyrian goes a different covenant, or the legendary will only matter in multi target

#

its that simple

gusty mirage
oak sky
limber lion
#

:')

oak sky
#

it did for me

limber lion
#

It was called Slaughter Poison*

#

you zoomers

#

smh

oak sky
#

i didnt play beta

gusty mirage
#

Listen here night fae boy

oak sky
#

i started during prepatch

limber lion
#

Not far off now

gusty mirage
#

I was gladly wasting 2 GCDs while y’all were zooming around as a fox

limber lion
#

Gonna be pumpin next patch

gusty mirage
#

It’s okay 10.0 for sure whispyrcopium

oak sky
#

venthyr till the day i die

#

oh and i picked it for narrative reasons

gusty mirage
#

If there’s an option to not play mfd next tier

#

I’m jumping all over it

subtle tundra
#

you can not play mfd this tier

#

btw

gusty mirage
#

Don’t talk to me traitor

limber lion
oak sky
#

oxi wants the tier set to be godlike now

limber lion
#

Vigor means more energy regen, which means more energy, which means more energy to spend, which means more cd reduction from duskies

oak sky
#

just because of that

#

to make duskwalkers

#

a thing

gusty mirage
#

What am I going to play? Dusk/toxic onslaught? Thinkge

limber lion
#

Obe/Dusk

grim hornet
#

i.... can't....overcap....

limber lion
#

It really depends which one needs the cdr more as we'll be syncing them together every time

#

If those 3 extra seconds from MFD matter or not

gusty mirage
#

Syncing dusk/obe is actually going to be miserable

oak sky
#

i want us to have competitive damage

#

however it comes

limber lion
#

Duskies are awful

#

Fine on any fights without movement and intermissions

grim hornet
#

yes but for that... i'd use a pirate tbh

modest shell
grim hornet
#

probably gets more from no downtime

limber lion
#

probably around 1.5k for us with optimal stats

modest shell
limber lion
#

wut

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

destro is bad

#

it's lower than every other spec in the entire game

modest shell
#

destro needs huge buffs

limber lion
#

with or without the set

#

lol

#

It was fun in 8.3

oak sky
#

class is engineered for 2t and uncapped aoe

limber lion
#

But been pretty ResidentSleeper after that

modest shell
#

249 stat optimized warlock does 7.5k in singletarget sim 5 min

#

without set

limber lion
#

That's not true though

#

The warlock apl is dogshit

#

that's why it does so little

#

There is no one who is actually taking care of the apl and making sure it's up to par

oak sky
#

i heard theyve been improving their apl actually

#

lately

limber lion
#

Sure, but it's still nowhere close to a proper apl

#

You often see Warlocks at the bottom of the simulationcraft charts

#

But then out of nowhere Affliction starts murdering everyone

modest shell
#

afl was simming insane in last tier but they removed a 75% damage amp on rapture singletarget

#

from conduit they removed

limber lion
#

Because a proper 254 warlock with set does 10.5k

#

it's not a 3k difference

oak sky
limber lion
#

But yeah, getting there :P

oak sky
#

i'm sure whoever their guys are work pretty hard

#

ours is practically replicable in game

gusty mirage
#

Effort isn’t usually the issue

#

It’s time

limber lion
#

And discovery

#

There's constantly new things being found out

oak sky
#

so ideally everyone else would have something on our level or close to it

#

of course

limber lion
#

And someone needs to implement into the apl

oak sky
#

but like theres probably stuff that just isnt there for warlocks

limber lion
#

Like I found out about the MfD thing in Castle Nathria

oak sky
#

stuff that everyone knows and does

limber lion
#

But it wasn't implemented for god knows what reason

#

And we were sleeping on it for months because of it

oak sky
#

what mfd thing

limber lion
#

wut

spice spire
#

MA in castle nathria

limber lion
#

have you not been here for the last month

spice spire
oak sky
#

no in nathria

spice spire
#

Mfd ST

limber lion
#

Everyone is playing MfD now in SoD

oak sky
#

yeah

#

cev

limber lion
#

Yes

oak sky
#

of course i play that

limber lion
#

Yes

#

I found out about it

#

in Castle Nathria

#

The apl optimization

oak sky
#

OH

limber lion
#

It's not a new thing

oak sky
#

OH

#

gotcha

limber lion
#

But it was never implemented

oak sky
#

yeah not until vel said something

spice spire
#

Yo Cev when will MA be our bis legendary?

limber lion
#

and Koji said he'd implement it

#

but I guess he forgot

#

Anyways

#

There's a lot of small things like that

timber tiger
#

Forgive my idiocy but what does MfD stand for

limber lion
#

that get added here and there

#

Marked for Death

timber tiger
#

ty

limber lion
#

And new discoveries are always great

#

And we should aim to always look for new things and new optimizations

limber lion
spice spire
#

It had its time in the sun

#

Too short

limber lion
#

The 1s nerf

#

was too much

spice spire
limber lion
#

They nerfed it to 3s initially

oak sky
#

was it 5s?

limber lion
#

It was 5s

#

Then they nerfed it to 3s

oak sky
#

mmm

limber lion
#

But buffed it back to 4s

oak sky
#

yeah i remember it being 4

spice spire
#

Too far gone, unfortunate

limber lion
#

But the thing is that it doesn't work because of the talent

#

One more second on MA and it would be great again, mark my words

#

We would play Subterfuge

#

If we don't play the MA talent, we're forced to pick NS or Subterfuge, both which require one gcd to be used on garrote/rupture

#

Which means less value on the MA legendary

#

I remember when this chat used to be active

#

Now it's a wasteland

oak sky
#

i try my best :/

spice spire
#

@limber lion I’m sorry I can ape out if you want king

oak sky
#

i cut back on my shitposting

#

maybe i should bring it back

gusty mirage
#

And quake’s been MIA for like a week now

#

He hates us SAD

spice spire
#

It’s all about timing, doing it with the homies (shitposting) is based. Shitposting with people legitimately asking questions is cringe

#

Family stuff with Val, sue me king

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

See you in court

oak sky
limber lion
oak sky
#

i never leave

limber lion
#

Or well, it just needs one person spouting incorrect information and suddenly it's a party.

oak sky
#

mark my words

gusty mirage
limber lion
dawn ivy
#

i still believe in assa prayge

oak sky
#

listen

dawn ivy
#

purely for the double 1 min cds

oak sky
#

im a zoomer

limber lion
#

it's the only thing I believe in

oak sky
#

and you guys are never losing me

gusty mirage
#

Dw I’m sure a certain content creator whose name starts with an “In” will release something new for us to fight the good fight against

oak sky
#

or maybe 0 will stir some shit up again

dawn ivy
#

"NIGHTSTALKER ESANGUINATE 200K DAMAGE IN 3 SECONDS?!?!?!"

limber lion
#

You know it

#

MfD - Rupture - Vanish - Garrote - Vend - Exsang - Sepsis - Shiv

lean fossil
#

@limber lion please tell me sin is looking to be the go to spec for next tier, even if its a lie

limber lion
limber lion
oak sky
lean fossil
dawn ivy
#

yes....

oak sky
lean fossil
#

i dont wanna play sub next tier lol and i refuse to look at outlaw

dawn ivy
#

ngl, kyrian outlaw doesnt look terrible

grim hornet
dawn ivy
#

oh jeez

oak sky
#

wait for ptr to be out a few weeks

grim hornet
#

i mean dont get me wrong, i hate sub, but that's what it seems xD

gusty mirage
#

Why do you hate sub

grim hornet
limber lion
#

Sin is looking like the worst of the 3

dawn ivy
#

he was joking lmao

gusty mirage
#

Haven’t they suffered enough in 8.x?

limber lion
#

Well, we don't really know yet

#

We can't say for sure

gusty mirage
#

I think outlaw looks the worst tbh

limber lion
#

Could be

#

Who knows

gusty mirage
#

BTE reset does fuck all for them

grim hornet
dawn ivy
#

we need to see the functionality of basically all three sets

oak sky
#

I think I need to finish my essay

limber lion
#

Yeah well the Shiv thing does fuck all for us

dawn ivy
#

because all three sets have some confusion still

limber lion
#

And the ExsangVend is

#

well

#

not great

lean fossil
#

they just need to buff it

gusty mirage
lean fossil
#

shiv to 50% and instead of 100% faster boost it to 200%

#

easy

limber lion
#

We get 25% more damage on our bleeds, which is around 15% of our damage for 30% of the time with the 2p

gusty mirage
#

The sub 4pc looks meh if it doesn’t give CP too

#

Overall the entire class tier bonuses look kinda underwhelming

dawn ivy
#

you are not going to enjoy 200% speed bleeds

gusty mirage
#

Any bleed refresh enjoyers during vendetta?

dawn ivy
#

they need to double proc rate, not cut the fucking duration in half its so much easier that way

limber lion
oak sky
#

do you?

gusty mirage
#

I only have to refresh garrote during vendetta now

oak sky
#

i refresh rupture about half the time

#

not a huge change

dawn ivy
#

refreshing rupture at 200% speed is a rupture every 7 seconds

gusty mirage
#

Can’t wait

#

It’s going to be so much “fun”

lean fossil
limber lion
#

Well

#

A 5cp rupture lasts for like 24s

#

so it's 12s

oak sky
#

then pd

dawn ivy
#

oh im in sub right now yeah

limber lion
#
  • pandemic
#

garrote 18s

dawn ivy
#

lmao cant even reapply garrote if you made it 200%

limber lion
#

but we're not entirely sure yet if we have the exsang effect throughout the entire Vend

gusty mirage
#

200% would destroy garrote uptime lmao

limber lion
#

Or if it works similarly to Exsang where it just snapshots

#

Garrote - Vend - Exsang

grim hornet
#

the thing is idk what's worse

limber lion
#

4.5s garrote

#

poggers

gusty mirage
#

Subterfuge gaming

limber lion
#

100%

#

non-ironically though

#

I think the tierset is going to be bonkers in pvp

dawn ivy
#

oh yeah we already go subterfuge

#

with this set

lean fossil
#

they could just triple the hit rate of them during vendetta instead of reducing the time

oak sky
#

yeah its for sure gonna be good in pvp

#

cant see it being bad

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

Yeh

oak sky
#

and they already play duskwalkers

#

energy cap to the moon

limber lion
#

Honestly could see people playing NS/MFD/Exsang with MA

#

and just burst

oak sky
#

they alr play mfd in pvp

limber lion
#

yes sir

oak sky
#

what is it rn

gusty mirage
#

They still wouldn’t drop alacrity tbh

limber lion
#

bleeds up, vend, exsang

dawn ivy
#

i think in pve that burst could have niche uses

limber lion
#

Vanish - Env - Muti - Env - MFD - Env

dawn ivy
#

awful overall of course

limber lion
#

it's mega burst

limber lion
oak sky
#

mp/sub/mfd/elusive/alacrity/internal/pb

limber lion
gusty mirage
#

Assa rogue about to melt people in pvp

dawn ivy
#

but if you wanted to put ONE class on an overlord for soulrender? fuckin hell sin could solo that

limber lion
#

If you wanna have some fun, you should just play Exsang in pvp

#

and go ham and burst people

#

rbg's would be pretty dank

gusty mirage
#

And ninja a base

limber lion
#

yeh

#

love to see it

spice spire
#

Literally driving to work thinking of wow

#

I’ve entered a hellscape

limber lion
#

Yeh

oak sky
#

nah

dawn ivy
#

welcome back to the PTR mind prison

limber lion
#

But MA is still bad because of the alternatives

oak sky
#

rather think about wow while i go to school than think about school

spice spire
#

I know

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

it's sadge

oak sky
#

i assume its the same for work

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

I can't wait to play TO + MA, NS/MFD/Exsang

#

unironically would be dank

oak sky
limber lion
#

they should add resetting functionality to exsang

oak sky
#

they should add aoe to exsang

dawn ivy
#

thats how they could fix crimson tempest issue

#

was thinking about how they could ever fix that talent row

#

make each target with the dot do slight aoe explosion kinda like echoing blades

gusty mirage
#

Make CT baseline and add a talent that buffs it I guess

dawn ivy
#

they need to make crimson tempest weaker in ST

#

and make it stronger in aoe

#

and then buff PB

oak sky
#

they cant make it stronger in st and also make it stronger in aoe

dawn ivy
#

sure they can

oak sky
#

i meant weaker in st

#

sorry

#

tired

gusty mirage
#

They have target modifiers for every spell

#

Im sure they could figure it out

oak sky
#

sounds aids

dawn ivy
limber lion
#

sounds over the top

#

lol

oak sky
#

we need an aoe finisher that does more damage to targets with more bleeds or something

dawn ivy
#

what else could they do to make it worse in ST, im bad at thinking of alternatives like this

oak sky
#

or maybe these are my fried late night thoughts

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

Remove PB

gusty mirage
#

So that it’s an actual trade off

lean fossil
#

make pb like it was in legion

oak sky
#

actually not boring

dawn ivy
#

yeah that needs to be done either way

limber lion
#

Tie PB to Envenom and Shiv

lean fossil
#

wait was it legion or wod that it was op?

limber lion
#

All Envenoms during Shiv proc a poison bomb

oak sky
#

dude

#

cev

#

cev

limber lion
oak sky
#

cev

#

cev

limber lion
#

It did exist in Legion

oak sky
#

i literally

lean fossil
#

ok legion

limber lion
#

sup

oak sky
#

had that exact same idea

#

today

#

in my brain

limber lion
#

good

oak sky
#

im not even joking

limber lion
#

it's a good idea

#

:-D

#

less rng

oak sky
#

or make it proc on crits

limber lion
#

and then we'll actually have to think about shiv windows

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

poggers

dawn ivy
#

we would instantly go back to "get 3 envenoms in your toxic bladfe or else youre not a real sin rogue" pepechortle

lean fossil
limber lion
#

No

dawn ivy
#

no shot

gusty mirage
#

God we’d actually be as broken as mages

limber lion
#

Poison Bomb was an artifact trait

#

And it was made into a talent

#

No idea why they did that

dawn ivy
#

pb in legion was literally our biggest dam sometimes

limber lion
#

They should have just removed it then and there

limber lion
#

felt so fucking awful

lean fossil
#

i just remember when it would proc and youd be telling the tanks not to move the boss lol

limber lion
#

yooooooo wtf tank keep them in the green my guy

dawn ivy
#

worse than any night fae hunter this expac

limber lion
#

"i can't see anything on the floor"

#

ok nevermind fuck

gusty mirage
#

Took me forever to realize that no one else saw poison bomb

lean fossil
#

remember the knife throw opener?

dawn ivy
#

i remember a friend of mine had a weakaura that triggered anytime an enemy took damage from poison bomnb and his character would instantly start spamming to not move

lean fossil
#

we could go back to those dark times

winter vapor
#

I personally just hope we get to be reasonble next tier - im not sure I can face learning sub or feral >:

gusty mirage
#

Well that depends on your definition of reasonable

lean fossil
#

top 1-2

#

reasonable

gusty mirage
#

You’ve been playing the wrong class all expac my friend lol

lean fossil
#

a man can dream!

gusty mirage
#

May I interest you in boomkin or mage?

lean fossil
#

besides im a terrible lock lol

winter vapor
#

im at best a mid tier rogue who simetimes gts first place if the other pumpers are busy or away :p

#

so er, that

gusty mirage
#

Venthyr boomie is about to be kinda nuts

winter vapor
#

its already pretty bonkers

gusty mirage
#

Yeppers

lean fossil
#

glad they had to buff them

#

..

gusty mirage
#

Ain’t it grand

#

WW monk too

lean fossil
#

im going feral

#

cant be bothered to be range

spice spire
#

“Why is this boomkin in melee range?”

lean fossil
oak sky
#

Fuck im gonna be so dead tomorrow

#

And im gonna have to raid

dawn ivy
#

whats the over/under on ptr going up this week tinfoil_pepe

#

no shot with all the strikes right?

oak sky
#

Its not

#

No shot with thanksgiving

spice spire
oak sky
#

Like literal 0%

gusty mirage
#

Yeah zero shot with thanksgiving

spice spire
#

So negative shot

dawn ivy
#

ah yeah fair

gusty mirage
#

Half the workers walked out last week

dawn ivy
#

i forget holidays

oak sky
#

Thats why my name is here to temind you

gusty mirage
#

I think if that doesn’t happen a good chance we would’ve gotten it last week

dawn ivy
#

i wonder whats its like right now being a dev who actually likes the game

oak sky
#

Ill have some christmas stuff by friday

gusty mirage
dawn ivy
#

forced to sit outside your office for moral obligation but REALLY wanting to go inside and work on the game

gusty mirage
#

I would say they don’t mind making good money but we’ve since come to know that blizz pays their employees like shit OMEGAKEKW

oak sky
#

Dude

#

If blizzard doesnt pay well

#

Idk how

#

The devs live in irvine

gusty mirage
#

They’re probably renting a closet out for $2500 a month

oak sky
#

I dont think we have closets

gusty mirage
#

Garage it is

oak sky
#

Its not new york

#

I saw a blizzard dev in the wild once @gusty mirage

clever kindle
dawn ivy
#

until bobby the goblin steps down probably

gusty mirage
clever kindle
#

Nah, its normally just that day

oak sky
#

No

dawn ivy
#

he says hes not stepping down unless he cant fix the issues present though

gusty mirage
oak sky
#

I didnt mythic raid yet so i didnt understand

gusty mirage
dawn ivy
#

yeah for sure

gusty mirage
#

Force the board to axe him, get a nice severance while keeping his shares of actiblizz

spice spire
dawn ivy
#

but he might be "suggest" by the board of directors

#

or investors

gusty mirage
#

Real life gallywix got it figured out

dawn ivy
#

blizz has lost SO MUCH of their stock in just last month

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

Aight king

#

Kinda toxic ngl

gusty mirage
dawn ivy
#

hmm that emote looks familiar

fallen arch
#

that's a cool emote

frail niche
#

Since it's not specified in the faq, do we pool every single time we run out of energy? Let's say I'm casting envenoms, I run out of gas, then I pool a bit and use a few envenoms again? Or when do we pool?

grim hornet
#

u pool between envenoms afaik, unless vendetta / shiv is active

hollow river
alpine latch
#

Man, I got to come into a Mythic Ner'zhul kill and Painsmith prog. So. Much. Fun.

#

#1 in DPS on the kill and a green parse. FML

hollow river
#

Mythic is a bit harder to parse on

alpine latch
#

yeah

#

I only had like 3 pulls on it total

#

The movement is obviously completely different and I wasn't expecting to even be there

#

A buddy told me he'd use me as a backup
