azmond gold like:
"this game sucks" doesnt even play it
azerite became a system in 8.1, the vendor was extremely bad designed since it was just rng slot machine that could get you bis in a month or at the end of the patch, corruptions only became fun midway through the patch which was also the last patch so it wasnt interesting, benthic ruined 8.2
i don*t think wow is for the amount of content it has atm unpopular
thats a fair assessment
i like sl a lot more atm than at release, not only bcuz of qol but actually can log korthia without 3fps and 600ms
covering a game you heavily dislike for years is... questionable
hes 99% negative
I definitely know people this is the case for
so his opinions to me are skewd
cross faction wouldnt fix anything tbh
sure. but that doesnt mean that just because its true for some people, that itll magically fix a lot of issues the game is currently dealing with
gonna try to do all 7 mage towers, gonna be fun to do on specs i've never played
I have friends on horde na I can't play with cause I raid oce, which is mandatory to be alli
sure, it's not the only problem, but it is a real problem
its honestly not mandatory
my mistweaver gonna be POPPIN
seli i am unsure
i raided as ally on EST U.S
I still have a lot of alliance friends but that's because I just transferred to horde 7 months ago
i think a lot of current problems rly come from the fact that content releases are so slow
it is mandatory to be alli for oce if you want to raid in a decent guild ya
the content release cycle is almost double that from legion
i think if they just released small raids/dungeons in between we'd be fine
one raid every 6 months
we also kinda had nyalotha for 10 months but still
my favorite past time is triggering people that quit wow by telling them I actually enjoy the game
for some reason it gets them going

DDDUDDE SAME
but end of addon raid vs 2nd raid and cn was already longer than ever
its funny how outraged they are that not everyone shares their views 
i did write up the times a lot during bfa, and in sl. I can dig it up.
But a new content patch comes every ~7 months instead of 3.5 in legion
its funny because they have the most out dated opinions for the game lmao
and with that i don't count raids as only content
or havent played in 14 years
this is also in line with why a lot of people felt overwhelmed in legion with how much content there was
by the time were at now in legion already cleared 3rd raid 🤣
even people who quit in shadowlands, they seem to think that everyone playing the game is miserable playing the game and just addicted.
while people feel bored in sl from
theyre right, i am miserable but wow has nothing to do with that 
tbh, playing the game differently lately has helped me enjoy it more then focusing on raid as much as possible or M+
the pretty much endless amount of optimzation u can do in this game in pve content keeps me going
u can almost always improve on something
in m+ or raid
and thats good content for me
actually same
u never do outside current content
that's because some people are only interested in certain aspects of the game, and you can't really blame them
but in current content pretty fast
i wish seasons were 3-4 months so the m+ pushing seasons would actually be competitive and mean more
now there are 3 rotations of the affixes and people only play the really good weeks, kinda sad
tbh we should be able to stop at any level to do old ocntent like its current
i only exclusively raid and do m+, and i feel like ive still got loads of stuff to do
tanking this week in m+ certainly keeps you awake
so dont think current content runs dry fast either
people just get bored easily, and thats on them
like theres no improvements for my character outside kt loot
yeh
which is 3 hours per week
thats why you get alts

i have pal mage warr
I mean gear is gear, but i feel like there arent many players in this game who couldnt improve their rotation for example
🤣
every character played as much as you do will stop getting upgrades at some point
thats the fun part, i dont really chase gear as that gets u done with the game fairly quickly
then get 1 of them to main raid
start playing those
hit the gm with the "if i dont start playing this im not gonna show up"
my monk is 246 and never seen the raid 
u actually get the gear to start the game first
i am unsure about this. Blizz does a bad thing in keeping stuff relevant and did cut a lot of optinal/casual content in sl.
I do agree that most people won't play all content but i don't think its the main issue
and if they fix m+ affixes game would feel a lot better atm
thats the thing though. i dont believe it is a "real problem". its just one of many, and one of the ones that has been talked about for over a decade. but i personally believe that if it was really such a hindrance to the success of the game, then blizzard wouldve put in the time and effort to fix this particular issue. the fact they didnt, makes me believe that its one of those issues that the community believes to be very big, but that the internal numbers just dont confirm to be a major issue that deserves the excessive amounts of time and resources to be fixed (yet)
whats wrong with m+ affixes
feels like this week tanks reduced by 90% and cant blame em
they are poorly balanced even with the budget fixes
its only that bad when 2 shit affixes get stacked, such as this week
theyre fairly balanced i feel like
they are not
both of these affixes force you to kite though
but some
I think the problem is that blizz does not iterate enough on systems. A lot of systems did work out fairly well but got scrapped once a xpac was over. This is also part of preservation of old content
well depends on what level u play at
sure u cant do cutting edge keys
but u can do anything else easily this week
my only problem with necrotic is that there are anti-kite mechanics on mobs and then affixes like these make so melee just die randomly for no reason.
even at 20s
affixes that give a challenge = good, affixes that are easy but slow down dungeon = bad
blizz has such a good universe and wow could have been the center and scale way beyond what the company approached it to be
I don't have the stats to prove it one way or another, but anecdotally it def is. Them not addressing it up until this point doesn't mean it definitely isn't an issue; they've not fixed things that were issues for years in the past, it's not really that much of an indicator for whether it's a problem or not.
i like the "problem solving" affixes, but sometimes they are just very polarizing like inspiring in top
like inspired is 0 challenge either zerg down or cc out
there's also a cost to removing faction barriers, some people really care about and identify as one faction
thats what i felt like doing keys this week tbh
yeah for sure. but in regards to "just remove factions to make the game better", i honestly believe it to be a very low impact change. removing the region lock and allowing EU to play with NA would do much more for the game than removing faction limitations, imo.
sanguine super bad and slow cuz non controllable mobs
it was ok-ish on tyrannical, but its impossible to do fortified.
u can play around it tho
it would be very funny to have TOP inspiring fortified in TGP
either by comp choice or strategy
errrr no
what if i play with a group of 5?
a.k.a. my friends
@Ausgelebt#6
I think they should do 3 changes:
#1 remove fraction restrictions
#2 remove cross realm restrictions
#3 make mythic id system less restrictive
comp does matter, a monk or a druid is extremely helpful to deal with sanquine when the pack has mobs that dont move
goliaths, shards etc
no
its not about the control u have
its about non controllable mobs
same for necrotic
there arent packs where u cant control multiple mobs
with utility
like typhoon or ring
there are elites you cant move
because:
ad 1: people are stuck with a fraction they joined with potentially a way lower player pool
ad 2: people are stuck on bad servers and have not a lot of option unless they spend $ for server transfere
ad 3: finding people for mythic is hard, and its impossible to find somone who wants to join for a evening if they ruin their id
we must be playing a differenr game then
multiple in one pack?
2 vanguard in mid pack
yes
right at dungeon start
ok
no
and if its on cd???
they cant
then u didnt play around the affix properly
1 ability pressed slightly wrong in a single pack and the mob healed to full
the harvesters
same with goliath in halls
they need to be in melee
just cast
yeah theyre a bitch to deal with, so u play the harvester
make sure u dont kill mobs on them
if u can handle that all simulatenously in a pack of 15 mobs
very easily said
yea just do that bro
ur the best player in the world
exactly, thats the fun of it tho
lol
its still doable
ok
just not easy
cause i am playing on tournament realm and have infinite tries to master every pack
i was literally able to get some small drops of rio this week
on + what
so its not impossible
ye at what rio man
so 24-25s?
and ur group is handling those packs easily
i've tried 2 26s last night
or are u just skipping them
not easily, this is probably one of the hardest weeks but keys are still timeable
cuz i played with 2.9 heal and tank and we struggle in nw
i actually swapped to kleia outlaw for top specifically for the first boss this week
like 3x easier
first top boss u cant soothe melee boss to reset necrotic
cuz im not only looking to get rating, and i could get rating this week too so why not do it
so u kite which is cancer
its like saying why not just wait 5 months before getting CE, as there will be nerfs to bosses
cuz its not the same
literally not the same?
you get CE and you look at world ranking when you kill it for the first time, for m+ you have the whole season
sry boys im gonna stop
? im an active player
in nw first pull u have small jumpers that give 3 million stacks in 2 seconds the cleave thrower that afaik does whatever casts he wants in whatever order with vanguard u cant control
so naturally u need to either super zerg, have the correct tank or pull smaller/slower while in other weeks u just pull 4 packs bl and zerg
very imbalanced
and im unsure what it has to do with enjoying the game or not enjoying the game to critize such things, theres a reason they already did a lot of affix tuning cuz the m+ active population heavily drops during some weeks, because they are so cancer to play
i dont even play outlaw 😦
outlaw so dead the corpses are swimming up on the shores here
you forgot to post whispyrs outlaw audio file
thanks
This made me chuckle 🤭
Regarding sims i guess we want the crit trinket from legion TW ? 
Hello, you life in the past
Where can I find these sims? I mean the list of items from Legion TW that could be good.
droptimizer
!bis
do you just stack critical strike in raid even with someone else sims a little bit better?
no
looks like ya boi is not farming legion TW 
Idk if there’s any amount of dps I’d farm that shit for
I am interested in trying the dungeons in an m+ setting tho
im planning to do legion m+ anyways
I mean I'll grab the one trink but farming all dungeons nosireee
also, my guild wont have me moan about guardian trinket now
wants me to replace guardian trinket, I worked so hard for it 
there's a possibility not to get the countermeasure trinket during those 2 weeks
farmed phial for 3 months
but its huge for rogues
I think it depends on spec. for my kyrian(kleia) outlaw it's 385 dps, and for sub (mika/theothar) it's just 180 dps
good thing I don't play outlaw 
what a nutty trinket
What does that trinket do really? I can't remember that one
Thanks. Eye of command (or wtvr it was called) it gave crit stacks, will it be good or Kara is not available?
Karazhan is not available.
!guide
just can't get enough from frost
same here, but will be farming that dung for the trinket 😄 after all it's ~130 dps gain!
these are part of tw:
vault is probably the worse with pugs
That last boss....
never even seen any of them so I am expecting to have an awful time
I hate learning new dungeons
you sound scared
I liked all dungeons from legion
tbh its exciting, they are all cool dungeons
🤷
I’ve never ran them, outside of eye, oddly. So I am pretty excited myself
also mage tower challenge 👀
I am very excited to beat mage tower
I took about 20 pulls on PTR and got to about halfway
was having trouble dodging the spinny ground axes because they seemed to move so randomly
Meanwhile the only mage tower I want to beat (besides rogue ones again) is the druid one
Grief AF of them to launch it on bolstering week
any raid boss seagulls?
Raid boss seagulls 

wait until peoples groups are wiping on the Vault miniboss
kekw
I think I missed the mage tower part of the actual game...is it difficult (like assuming ilvl 250'ish)? How long would one expect it would take them to clear it (pulls #, time, whatever)?
Gear will be normalized so it shouldn't matter what you have, theoretically
gotcha
with many sockets etc afaik
interesting
the hotfix nerf should help a lot
because most of the reason you'd wipe was taking axe damage cause skill issue
and it depends on how hard it is, shouldn't take you more than a couple hours if you know how to use the class well
but it's really really rough still
the only class i dont know how to play that i need is mistweaver
I cleared it in about 2 hours during legion, and I was on ptr this time around and it took me almost 7
cant wait to spend hours learning it
7 hours?
yes
well that's actually a good thing. I wish the reward was something better lol
i dont even like that transmog
no leech this time around, poggers
it's easily harder than the legion one on release
do all 7 ez
like getting green fire back in the day, was one of the most rewarding things i've done in wow
you're basically required to find leech gear or wear twink socket gear to try and game it
i love challenging solo content
at least for like the average joe
shard of rev 

fortified leech, leeching poison - sound like good ideas.
THEOTAR LEECH 
theotar doesn't work
its gonna be a long couple of days trying to dodge axes with no pattern
stupid question - is the assassination reward different from the subtlety reward ( i know we're getting off topic, so i appreciate it )
like if i do it as sin - would there be a point to also doing it as sub - i guess is the question
I don't think there's a difference
I think they are diff challenges, I don't know if there are diff rewards
You'd be doing the different specs for meta achieves for the book mount
gosh - literally the only thing i need in-game is an upgrade to my 239 helmet
yeh would just be achieve stuff
Closing the Eye - frost death knight, havoc demon hunter, survival hunter, subtlety rogue, arms warrior
The God-Queen's Fury - arcange mage, ret paladin, assassination rogue, enhancement shaman, demonology warlock
The Highlord's Return - blood death knight, vengeance demon hunter, guardian druid, brewmaster monk, protection paladin, protection warrior
Thwarting the Twins - balance druid, marksman hunter, frost mage, shadow priest, affliction warlock
An Impossible Foe - unholy death knight, feral druid, fire mage, outlaw rogue, elemental shaman, fury warrior
Feltotem's Fall - beast mastery hunter, windwalker monk, discipline priest, destruction warlock
End of the Risen Threat - restoration druid, holy paladin, holy priest, restoration shaman, Mistweaver Monk
happy for you, or sorry that happened
?
ahh thanks for that.
So getting the mount requires beating all of those
Is the sin mage tower hard
Heard it was pretty easy back then but idk if they buffed or nerfed
Sin was the easiest back in Legion
Yea
Damn
Just start adding all the CCs and spells to your bars you never use
blind focus macro seems to be the only thing I needed to add

yo true
Has anyone tried it after the recent tuning patch note
considering it's not live and also cannot be tested
I would be very interested to hear if someone did
it should, axes are the main avoidable damage that will wreck runs
I wouldn't mind grabbing that now but if it's still super hard I'll just wait to do it with a tier set
but tbh the whole thing is tuned way too high
if "we" (talking collectively as the mythic raiders and high io pushes and good pvpers of the community)
cannot smash it day 1
It was too in Legion
and it's a struggle
then we got gear
I thought you’re playing sub next tier why are you in here?
then it is way too fucking hard

and this time there's no "waiting till next patch" to outgear it like in legion
you're just stuck
The set bonus should work in there but dom gems will not
It means you are slow learners and are able to clear mythic only by cheesing mecanics with high end gears or by gathering all the good gear by doing splits and getting golds sent by your fans
That was a big kapp dont attack me D:
the set bonus does not work
Ah well I hope that nerf helps then
all tier bonuses are disabled
I should upgrade my garrosh heirloom weapons for the extra gems I bet that'll help
Put some old school enchants on them too
That seems to make a big difference in other time walking content
what gems can we put in that older gear, +16's?
It prob scales down so current gems are similar to legion level. But those daggers have two sockets each so if you have them that's a huge benefit
better use old gems
I'm not sure it's worth it
they are worth yeh
Sockets are pure gold in tw
but mage tower isn't time walking
convergence seems rly good, so if you want sth for the mage tower challange, might look at that
m+ will be scaled up, so i think you can cheese in it
Dang I looted that on my dk in my last NH run.. too bad I didn't do it on my rogue
Won't the legion dung gear drop in m+ become redundant once 9.2 release? 9.2 might release in February right?
Correct
And then legion m+ will come back in like may
And we’ll farm the trinket again
:D

New phial except on time walking
The trinket with +crit right?
That’s what I thought. Ty
Sucks starting in bfa. I don’t know any of the legion dungeons lol
It drops in VoW right?
LEETS GOO
mythic i hope
it is
Yeee!
im not even bothering for hc on assa
how do you beat the mage tower as sin rogue
Wondering if crippling poison would work in mage tower so that Jarl cant chase you down
I got a 20 neltharion's I just dropped to a 15, not trying to first time dungeons on a 20 🤣
TW is already up?
Usually servers aren’t even back up yet lol
My friends got into their vault so
welp, mage tower is still feeling just as beefy as ptr
is it really possible to beat Mage tower as rogue tho
400k hp bosses and I'm sitting here with 6k hp
yea its possible
any clues?
id recommend looking up some guides
there lots of little tricks
I don't understand, I get hit by 0 axes and still lose all my health in the first 30 seconds :)
kidney jarl when he empowers, blind the sigryn cast, kick shadowbolts, dodge valkyrie, run over the purple circles, heal with golden orbs
that's basically it to my knowledge
I just get fuckin trucked
ur triggered #lmao
am I? 
lol
About the ocular gland, trinket from the Eye, does sims always assume that you re above half hp? 🙄
It does a certain percentage, not sure the amount, but there is consistently 90%+ uptime and usually higher
Thx 
There’s setting alongside the food buffs and stuff you can change
95% is usually good
I leave it at 100% personally
OKayyy, didnt watch the settings
Kinda looking to minmax before sylv if i can get some upgrades i ll take it
It had a 97% uptime on my sylv kill
literally not getting out of the first 30 seconds of mage tower sigh
back to shadowlands it is

Pretty sure pinging someone to insult them is considered harassment chief
🙂
yo guys, idk if it has been discussed or not. Is this thing oversimming ? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/pC9BY48W5yp9eeXuH8H6dY
its not
no
it's just a good trinket
that shit goated
Yoyo cant find in the pins, but is there anything good from legion mythic plus for us ? Like the court of stars ring or did they nerf it
#wow-general pins @thin trout
Oh today pinned. cheers
Ty
how different was rogue in legion? Design wise for mage tower
I'm glad I have two of the best trinkets recommended for MT
it was still hard back then till you severely overgeared it
took practice
not everyone that did it won
@pearl basin
yeah thats cool, moreso wondering if our tools were relatively the same
still the same i think
The same but everything is nerfed
maybe a stupid question, but is there anything we should be targeting in the Legion Keystone Dungeons
For the other specs maybe, sin's was infamously easy even on release. Will be curious if it's the same.
What's Blind's CD reduced to again?
CoS ring not updated yet? Or just bad?
Not working yet on raidbots
Rip
!def
Rogue Defensives usability: http://tiny.cc/q602uz
If it's infamously easy I should uninstall rn
Literally everyone is standing at the front door complaining about how hard it is except for 1 warrior I saw lol
it was infamously easy for a shorter time than it wasnt
it got adjusted fairly quick for back then i believe
Sounds about right, yeah. Most of being a rogue in there is about using your entire kit.
Although we lost bandages... so IDK how that's going to impact us
Because blind/bandage was a thing back in Legion
@gusty mirage gib vault blessing
There are definitely no openings to bandage even if you were able to use them
The three apes punching you in the face all the time
was the blind debuff a thing during legion?
@balmy condor what % hp does the sin fight end?
i think its 20%
back then a lot of people used hp regen food I think, stam flasks, etc. Even build changes specifically for mage tower
I read hard stack leech
Might be worth to go leeching poison or elusiveness
yeah, I read leech poison, get the leech cloak enchant, and whatever gear you have with leech.
I'm going to to try it out after my class
if I remember correctly all of your CCs work so make sure to use them liberally
bruh I got the sylv belt
I'm actually mad
Does SL gear get down graded to ilvl50 or 60 ?
i got terragrue bracers but with speed
you go down to about 6-7k hp
holy shit vault of the wardens is toxic
what is the enrage timer?
ye first boss is rough
those flames come out way too quick
Last boss is tough but idk what I'm doing
how are yall doing on mage tower? im getting shat on
about like 40% of runeseer's hp he starts casting shield non stop
i guess im soft locked 
damn a 246 vault trinket beats 252 amplifier by a lot

With speed
AYO?
I could see satchel being GIGA busted actually
pretty solid
Is there a way to check how many vendetta's I used?
oh nvm found it
5 cast

curious to see if it get's tuned with m+ taz coming
Ew
it'll be really good for a lot of specs but yeah mastery and no main stat is rough
it's the same stuff that we had to say when people were stacking it for rwf
just cuz it does a lot of dam doesn't mean it's necessarily better. just gotta sim it when it comes out
It does a shit ton of damage passively tho. It’s not that it was bad, it’s just at 246+ there were better trinkets than one capped at 233
I think it could be a heater next tier ngl
yeah the thing is people seemed to forget how much agi increases your overall dam cuz they were too stuck on the proc damage
it will be for sure and i'm glad we'll have something to compete with the other trinks we've farmed for 2 patches in a row
@spice spire @slow marsh
Who knows maybe if we do end up going crit mastery it could be bis
Gm 
gm 
GM king
pog
I agree it could be
Satchel is insane
Whíspyr
Ya

Do you sleep brother
I just woke up?
he's a light sleeper

Grustle don’t stop?
Same, I slept for like 2h
Barely finished last shaping fate at reset.
Also, I didn't bless my brothers, both Rogues got bad loot.


did we really have to lose durability on mage tower 
ok brb 
Bless up Mr. Minalba 
now she drops the 2nd one guaranteed right
Yes
tried and tested that. still no luck
praying for my vault in the morning
Any sense of when CoS ring will be updated in Sims?
Is it the theorycraft people that have to implement it or is it the raidbot people?
tier sets is theorycraft people, right?
Well it’s a bit of both
So they have to be tested first - then implemented in. Problem is, if a TC knows change is about to happen, or thinks it will be what’s the point in running the sim?
It’s good to have early data, sure, but it could lead to a ton of unnecessary extra work
i think it is
already updated
u can run droptimizer
I think the AA part isn't in Sims
No way it's simming 10 DPS lower than Painsmith ring with the effect included
I'm aware
But it's been me ruined a few times that the effect isn't in Sims
Mentioned*
The effect is not in sims
And that’s on whoever does items
For sims
Raidbots is just an interface for the most part
So AA ring is not actual doo doo?
Ash'golm trinket looking pretty heat (even though its frost dmg
)
It’s not omega but it’s worth it
It's just +10s duration Amp, so it's better xD
the trinket from vault seems to be rly good for some
I don't have a mythic gaurdian trinket so I'm sure that's why it's so good for me?
It’s better than that
countermeasure is actual bis trink for a lot of specs
pog
i think
i think all melee
idk about 2h users
CM doesn't look like it sims too well for me
wars seem to want it
but ill grab one anyway lol

I don't buy it
you don't have a mythic guardian trinket
and you're saying that cm doesn't sim well
even though it's heaps better than amp
Wrong trinket.
kekw
OH
Faulty countermeasures
faulty countermeasure
IM AUTISTIC
thats not the right trink
LOL
LOL
I got faulty with speed on it :D
Are you playing
anyone beat the mage tower yet?
i did with feint pants
Yes Countermeasure is yuge for me, sorry Im autistic lmao
in a time long ago
yeah its bis for everything
its melee bro
unless the tooltip is fried
That would be why!
this dungeon shouldn't exist on tyran
all 3 survival hunters will be in there for sure
please lord gib trink so i dont have to do this anymore
will SL drums work for me in magetower?
or do I actually need to buy level 40 drums
how many times have u done it
how terrible is it
its so bad
thats what i expected
i'm about to just try to get into 2's
lol
wdym?
I will have to rewatch the bad tower guides again D:
wdym
what dungeon? 
vault
yes
its easy wym
so easy
vault just sucks
just takes an hour for a 15 nbd
that and too many things are just stupid
^
one of the best dungeons
last boss aint fun with people who dont know what to do tho 
worked for me
idk it doesn't seem like it's tuned for this
np
I just did it with 1-2-1-1-3-2-3 talents, crimson is crazy on that fight
my top dmg
we need %
How the heck are people able to do the mage tower as sin rogue its impossiable
git gud
Only available tomorrow for eu right?
im trying but I guess I suck
i almost got it took a break died really close lol
i actually haven't attempted it yet
CC nonstop and outskill it.
you got almost all percentage at the start
It’s very difficult
since you omegaskipped at the end
put all the gear with leech you have (i had 14% with talents) and go leeching poison and crimson
cleave all 3 of them at all times
dot them all
use a blind macro for sig and poisoned knife for jarl
kite him whenever he enrages and blind her whenever she does the blood thing
PK 
prob just gonna do it as outlaw, the pirate boys seems to be knocking agatha over one after one
also master poisoner for stronger crippling poison
This is some dark tech
the fight ends before she dies btw, i think at 20% maybe?
Ye
something around that
anyone have a list of items we need to target legion keys?
countermeasure
Only thing I need is Faulty Countermeasure
aa ring
Ring’s not properly implemented yet in raidbots
Sooooo
Enjoy court of stars
Y u do dis to me?
Because I want to share suffering comrade 
handy to remember in case you forgot
What is the advantage to running a timewalking mythic+ on say 20 versus a 15?
There isn’t
nothing really
thx
are the mage tower abilities timed based or % [getting to round 30-35%] abilities just cast non-stop it seemed, at least the shield
Depends on fight
well the sin one, wasnt sure if i am just dps'in too [enrage] slow or it just speeds up at certain percent
Fight ends at 20%
Probably too slow. Lots of people are having trouble with the check rn
I make only 40 sec in the fight and dye
In fact I’d say most
Main target is the shadow bolt guy. Not the big boss
Read @balmy condor great guide on wowhead
Helps a lot
once you get farther in the fight, the shield and valkerie come out much faster while the other ones don't cast really
I'd like to know why it has an enrage timer now
should i farm leagion gear to make easier
Im at 43 attempts only make it to 40 sec and then die
if it makes you feel better, ill probably struggle too tomorrow
No it just all scales anyways
It’s just tuned very tightly right now
40 seconds should definitely be doable
There’s lots of guys in here that are VERY good Rogue players having a tough time
thanks @balmy condor
I think my first attempt today was like 2 min in
so my guess is probably that you're missing a mechanic
i just switch to Master Poisoner and def feels a bit more in control too
Ill rewatch the video and read your guide
yeh I think MP might just be better
i got IQD with leech can it be the play?
any piece with leech should be basically insta equip imo
how long is this fight in the mage tower
However long it takes you to get the middle dude to 20% iirc
Its super unforgiving damage if you mess up
is it normal to get unholy instead of frost when simming in top gear?
Depends on the ranks and your gear
Like if both are r5 something is seriously wrong
both sets maxed, ~40% crit
unholy ahead by ~0.5%
link the sim
here's one with obedience: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/e8Tb4aZoZXS8E7JyfJs5EA
here's one with dashing: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/i1H8Sm78PeiURkhbPwLShz
Just did a bare basic one
And frost is an upgrade at t5
By 300 or so
thanks! guess my settings are messed up somehow?
Yeah, when running sims it’s best to keep it simple, so I just did t5 vs t5
Napkin math suggests ring would be ~.4% upgrade
lol
something is very very weird though
the spell queueing thing is happening like every other pull
im trying to stack them all a lot more in the beginning for CT dmg
why arent you streaming it whispyr
yeah okay I'll toss it up
afraid to embarrass yourself?
yes
Is the boss a demon btw
I wonder if that heirloom trinket that is more effective against demons would help
Nah humanoid
im close, but christ does the damage randomly get out of hand sometimes
also the healing orbs definitely despawn
So is this mage tower hard or am i bad? LOL
why not both
but jk muti one is hard imo
the other classes with this challenge are like... ret paladin, enhance shaman, demo lock
so clearly designed with more sustain in mind lol
do we only get one encounter or is it like legion actually was?
each spec has its own
because i remember the sin one being the platform during legion
or i might just be crazy
think you might be crazy
I think it may be the fight length that's causing this.
5 mins: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/qa3A7fSs1fHUUfdXqfnbrn
7 mins: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/8MEcDxYQpVxpz1QME44Kse
10 mins: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/uqv2i9VzrZF1on5Y9fjzuK
Is this normal/expected?
your frost set is replacing your red gem in boots
longer fights will favor the red gem
@gusty mirage we made it
since more time is spent below your hp%
so basically, you're simming red gem + time vs your frost set lol
ok, I think i get it. thank you
Running now
I got the belt 
I’m guessing kyo is right; however, there’s no spot where you have a ten minute pw fight. Even sylv has a lot of in between time, and the damage is mainly focused on p3 anyway
ye, even 5m patchwork is pretty generous
I also tried running just the frost set and the one blood and even then, the dps still goes down over time.
6 mins: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sb81Wis5Z4yeGabWfUDwjF
10 mins: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/u7DANgfwVurjdTqjmZDSqW
But you're right; 10 mins isn't realistic. Just bugs me that I can't figure out why frost dps goes down as the fight time increases.
though that's my default raid sim
maybe something to do with increased damage during first 20s?
my guess is that it has to do with timings
yea
the proc lining up with cds, the absorption building up faster during lust, etc.
oh, ma doesnt give the proc extra crit?
ah
ive been lining those up, so i woulda been kinda sad if not lol
in any case, vendetta/lust WILL make your proc hit harder unless you're capping the absorb every proc
just by virtue of more energy for more abilities
and i guess vendetta boosting your damage will also fill up the absorb faster outside of abilities that are already hitting the per-hit absorb cap
the dagger is coming soon 
where can i check ST and AoE openers for venthyr assa?
Token of merit gang
fuck 5%
Ugh I'm hitting the "enrage"
isnt that just part of the fight lol
Don't remember that ever happening in Legion.
Just avoid enough mechanics and you would finish
at the end they're all doing their shit at the same time for me
Yeah, I got the guy to do the shield thing 3 times in a row, and the big guy did the rage 3 times in a row, and I was like well guess my dps isnt enough
that sounds like an enrage mechanic to me
I can't get under 60%
im doing way less dps than whispyr on stream, at least
but im getting sub 10% with 800-900dps


i tried it earlier and i didn’t even get to 10% so i am just not geared enough for mage tower this time
the gear is normalized
Pull count 
uh
10 or 11?
half of those were just rusty, reading chat, or
moments tbh
I only really had maybe 3 pulls where I was like "well, I got caught off guard" and not "oh I wasn't paying attention lmao"
oh so maybe i’m just bad lol
probably makes up at least some of the dps difference between us
im also shit at muti aoe since i only play muti on 1 or 2 target fights lol
side note, decanter is a meme, hasnt healed me once in a 6m pull and a 5m pull lol
just went back to normal trinkets
yeah, i was not seeing decanter heal at all on details
wonder how much iqd heals for as an oshit button
IQD is almost a Lay on Hands in regular SL stuff at least
someone's cube once healed me for like 45k or so when we were wiping
dude im doing mage tower and the bosses just enraged and murdered me @ like 15%????
is there an enrage timer what the fuck
or did i fuck something up
BRING OUT THE HOOKERS BOYS WE GOT A SECOND DAGGER
rogue is done done for the tier idgaf about tw cheese
weird message but gratz
Whispyr community council?
Debatable ❤️
Hmm, I just watched an old guide, and it said that after 50% health 2 of the abilities stop happening and you only get shield and valkyrie
I did not notice that today.
all abilities were happening
That's kind of messed =/
also there's definitely a hard enrage at 6:30 i think
Yeah I was hitting that I think with all 3 abilities happening at once over and over
jarl literally got an enrage buff (not the one he gets from sigryn)
and just two shot me
never have I felt worse as a player
I tried an attempt using the jarl Kidney shot macro on the guide, it didn't work at all.
the macro doesnt have his full name, so i dont think it works idk
i set him as focus and have macros for focus
I have sig as focus for blind. Its not a big deal, just wanted to point out it doesnt work for others who try to use it.
Oh
Unlucky
I’m not home atm
But if someone wants to dm me the working macro
I’ll get that fixed ASAP
it seems to be made for classes with sustain, so yea
im just pure shiet at dodging throwing axes, feels like they're homing lol
@spice spire 
keep getting it to 5%
?????
I opened up a spec channel and you were just sitting there soaking up the sun
So I had to do it to em


What cov are we running for mage tower ?
disabled
You right


ngl this would be easy with necro lol
It would be easier with anything
I’ve also never done a mage tower

hey
