in your head a DW spec should be getting way more but turns out they get less

#

or in some cases roughly the same

#

thanks to the lovely 19% miss chance

fleet anchor
#

(And yeah to your point above, Avade is a cool dude and this manufactured drama was absolutely ridiculous lol)

gusty mirage
#

manufactured drama in the wow community?

slow oriole
#

Sometimes I ask myself why player misses and parries on Raidbosses are still in this game

slow marsh
#

Oxi told me that he hates playing with other rogues especially if their name starts with m

lime gulch
#

the parries I kinda get whatever that encourages positioning

outer cairn
#

bro

fleet anchor
#

Also Shakib was a guildy of mine for like 2 years and I think he's a pretty awesome guy...so talking about the whole sims vs. Limit DHs was actually hilarious

nova flax
outer cairn
#

how?

lime gulch
#

the miss chance and especially that you have to just already know about the miss chance because the game doesn't tell you

outer cairn
#

and he's literally spamming FoK

lime gulch
#

is cringe

#

same goes for armor

fleet anchor
#

Even now Parries are becoming problematic with bosses that spin around like a PvPer the whole encounter

lime gulch
#

that and the behaviour of some abilities/procs vary wildly in terms of if they refund or just get clogged by a parry

fleet anchor
#

If you are playing as Night Fae Rogue and your Sepsis gets parried because Sylv turns around to anime something, you lose your entire legendary effect 🤣

#

Pretty cool

slow marsh
#

One of many reasons not to play nf

lime gulch
#

big fan of stormbringer not getting consumed but SS going on CD from a parry, so your glowy light up "press this button" thing breaks because you know, you can't press it

slow oriole
#

Take like Sylvanas, sometimes she just cant be moved and puddles are behind her, so you just deal less damage (maybe not a lot but still) because you are melee

fleet anchor
#

Non-CD abilities are not a big issue with parries as much, it's just a global loss and partial refund

#

But CD abilities get hosed

#

Which really was not how parries were designed for tbh

#

Because it's not like Rogues had many primary CD melee abilities back in vanilla

slow marsh
#

I'd rather deal with expertise

fleet anchor
#

But lots of bosses in this tier just randomly turn to cast shit all the time

gusty mirage
gusty mirage
slow marsh
#

Me either but if it means not getting parried

gusty mirage
#

I can never tell which way sylv is facing

#

it's impressive

fleet anchor
lime gulch
#

very confusing too, people pop in and ask about it all the time

#

same deal w/hot hand where the fractal CDR fades as you press it and it misfires, eats a GCD but the button is still ready and doesn't go off

#

so much spaghetti

slow oriole
#

The real solution to parry is to bring back spells being resisted

hollow river
#

Just get rid of parry EZ

gloomy knoll
#

green oxi

slow marsh
#

Na those mechanics don't fit in modern wow

gloomy knoll
#

👀 grats

gusty mirage
#

I don't hate parry or miss being in the game

fleet anchor
#

I'm a fan of making ranged hurt equally badly

gusty mirage
#

but it feels kinda janky

#

that we get punished but they don't

gloomy knoll
#

parry is the dumbest mechanic in the game

#

on jah

gusty mirage
hollow river
#

I don’t mind missing auto attacks as much

gloomy knoll
#

if you ever parried a flag

#

and then lose obedience buff

slow oriole
#

Does the game tell you about bosses beung able to parry you and specify which? I dont recall

hollow river
#

But GCDs and shit being parried is just shit gameplay

gloomy knoll
#

because you parrie dit

#

you just wanna neck yourself

fleet anchor
#

I mean DW penalty is kinda arbitrarily just to fit the "theme" of DW from lots of past RPGs

#

I don't really mind it

gusty mirage
gloomy knoll
#

i hate it so much lol

hollow river
gusty mirage
#

"oh sick 1 stack, nice"

gloomy knoll
#

it only happens when i'm facing boss so

#

bug or parry i hate it lol

fleet anchor
#

I think it's possible the flag thing could be related to a hidden spell being parried

gusty mirage
#

ye only happens to me on the spinning top boss that is sylv

hollow river
#

It’s happened to me when I wasn’t facing the front of the boss

gloomy knoll
#

dude

#

small boss models like sylv

gusty mirage
gloomy knoll
#

actually piss me off

#

like i literally cannot even see her fucking head

fleet anchor
#

It's not the primary ability but there are some non-logged components that don't show up

gloomy knoll
#

without zooming in

gusty mirage
#

and then I look at my flag WA and it's at 1 stack

gloomy knoll
#

and parry is a thing

#

like what

gusty mirage
#

and I just sigh

thorny pond
#

PS can do it when he jumps down. Not his I frames but even after

timid cloud
#

On god. I am raiding today & I’m still noticing people are using Nadjia / Vigor instead of Theo / MFD on like 90% of the logs.

fleet anchor
#

Yeah I think it's basically the "internal" trigger spell

#

That gets parried

#

But doesn't get logged

gloomy knoll
#

they need to make sylvs head like 5x the size

slow oriole
#

I would not be surprised if casting flag still casts slaughter in the background

twilit hollow
#

@gusty mirage that weakaura just causes you to become more and more tilted by your tanks or bad boss mechanics

oxi green POGGERS

tidal gorge
slow marsh
#

Oxi been green for awhile

fleet anchor
#

But parry definitely starts to feel mildly archaic if Blizzard is gonna make all their bosses randomly anime around constantly

tidal gorge
#

I hate botching openers on that fight because she randomly parries an envenom and I didn't notice. goodbye 5 flag charges

hollow river
#

yep

fleet anchor
#

It's also just an artificial space limitation when melee is already really punished

#

Melee having to cram into 40% of the already limited space

gusty mirage
#

vanish -> mut (parried) -> mut (parried) OKAY SICK MA WINDOW GAME THANKS

oak sky
#

@gusty mirage no way

no way

no way

Also there's still enough cleave mechanics in the game that standing in front isn't often a good idea

i dont mind parries as long as i can see which way the boss is facing, on slyv, i cant tell her ass from her front 90% of the time

oak sky
#

and the other 2 i didnt see oxi in this chat

twilit hollow
#

naw parry is an outdated archaic mechanic, remove it or add spell resists for casters just so i can hear them mald

gloomy knoll
#

i mean parries are just stupid

#

there's sometimes where melee is just forced to stand in front of shit

#

in order to move with tank

#

more often in keys

oak sky
#

damn oxi a big boy now tho

gloomy knoll
#

and you just get arbitrarily punished for it

simple stratus
#

some bosses dont have parries and some do, its weird but yeah i wouldnt miss it

except for vault

gloomy knoll

i'm in vault slavery now

gusty mirage

true prob best to do that

balmy condor

#

that won't work

#

btw

#

like if you're trying to compare to nadjia

strange python
#

I don't see it in the pins, but I recall there being a script you could run to determine all the best consumables -- weapon oi/stones, foods, etc.

#

Anyone have that?

balmy condor
#

!oil

#

excuse me moroes

#

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

#

wow thank you moroes

strange python
#

Thanks!

balmy condor

so you can just top gear it with nadjia

#

How do you line up cds in P3 sylvanas?

#

I'm using cds on colossus so I have vendetta up immediately after veil on the first platform

#

I was thinking for that reason of trying to sync the first vendetta and flag but then I'd have to wait until until the second platform to get decent value of them

#

So maybe it's better to flag immediately on the first platform, vendetta at the start of the second platform, then hold vendetta for the 3rd flag

#

so vendetta at 30s, 3m, 5m, and flag at 0s, 90s, 3m, 5m

sharp zodiac
#

No

sharp zodiac
kindred rapids
#

I'm only talking about P3

sharp zodiac
#

I wouldnt CD the colossus

#

So P3 would be Platform 2 after veil platform 3 after veil lust

kindred rapids
#

Well if I don't cd colossus we're missing a good portion of the second burn anyways

sharp zodiac
#

Well right now

#

If you vendetta at 30s you wont get full value because she'll jump during your CDs

#

3min in intermission so you're wasting CDs on chains?

kindred rapids
#

no

Intermission is literally at like 3:12

did dashing with mfd sim higher for quite some time or am i missing something?

slow marsh
#

Yeah

#

Mfd was September

oak sky
#

it was like the week i killed fatescribe

#

jeez

#

its been a while

charred wraith
#

eh i thought mfd was only relevant for obedience

dawn ivy
#

its a little better with obedience

#

but mfd still does work better than vigor even with dashing

oak sky
#

its relevant for venthyr in general

#

its a bigger increase for obedience than for dashing but its pretty big for both

charred wraith
#

cool

dawn ivy
#

but people still dont use it because its a bit cringe

oak sky
#

its not really

#

its fine

charred wraith
#

its fine

dawn ivy
#

feels different than usual

charred wraith
#

it feels the same idk

oak sky
#

people dont use them because they think its too hard for some reason or because it slows down their energy

#

either that or they just don't know

dawn ivy
#

its just clunkier

#

and yeah i guess it can be harder if you throw in trying to use it on adds

#

i just really dont like mfd on sin or sub tbh

iron orchid
#

when you are not used to it, it's hard to get the full potential out of mfd, I think that's just it

dawn ivy
#

its been a couple months now and people still arent getting rank 1s with it, so im confident it doesnt really matter

iron orchid
#

on ptr, i played with mfd for the last 4 bosses and still not used to using it properly, meaning, remembering to use it every 30s and planning to use it on add spawns

oak sky
#

dude people getting rank ones have 20 buffs what do you mean

strange python
#

monday got my first 259 EoN and right now the second, ggs mates

dawn ivy
#

there are certainly some close ranks

iron orchid
oak sky
#

literally people are either not on logs, playing worse with mfd, or dont have the gear/kill times to beat these giga parses

#

if everyone was playing mfd in the top 100 im positive the average damage dealt by top 100 would be higher

#

because its a stronger talent rn

dawn ivy
#

well sure

fallow otter
#

Rank one is a battle of winds crits and externals, sin is a basic spec (once you're geared)

oak sky
#

you can get very high logs, maybe not rank 1s on every single boss with no externals

#

high 99s

#

top 10

dawn ivy
#

honestly i dont even think you can get top 10 easily

oak sky
#

you definitely can

iron orchid
#

top 100 still comes down to some gearing even when you get no externals

dawn ivy
#

you gotta get 5 buff kind of luck on your crits

oak sky
#

not really

dawn ivy
#

to beat the externals?

iron orchid
#

i mean, 252 fusion or 246 countermeasure, and double sylv daggers

#

or you can't get there

kind talon
#

@oak sky rqid util 💀

oak sky
#

some bosses are harder than others but for the most part just average luck should get you in top 10

#

if you play optimally

#

and have bis gear

#

guardian specifically might be a stretch because of how hard people parse whore, but I think with a good kill time even that should be doable to get some decent logs

cyan silo
#

why my wind of winter got low damage

#

way lower than what i see from some streamer

oak sky
#

could be any number of reasons

cyan silo
#

im all ears, please

balmy condor
#

Streamers have a special install of world of Warcraft that gives them 20% more damage

oak sky
#

or

#

it could just be

#

your crit is low

burnt latch
#

its not that much, according to my calculations its closer to 12%

oak sky
#

your winds isnt rank 5

balmy condor
#

Or you’re not 255

oak sky
#

^

balmy condor
#

Or you got unlucky

oak sky
#

im not 255

balmy condor
#

Or you’re missing a raid buff

#

Or you’re bad at the spec

#

Or you’re focusing too much on winds damage when it’s a completely passive effect that you have no control over and it’s super confusing to me why it matters

oak sky
#

i track winds of winter so I can guarantee it crits using my vanish spell

imma buy a 190

oak sky

people just dont know everything theyre supposed to do

#

idk its just ppl not knowing certain concepts and playing it in raid without practice cause they think its easy

slow marsh

then failing and not understanding why they failed

look at gromnak perma holding flag and crying about winds and bomb rng on guardian

yep

oak sky

to be clear

hollow river
#

But was he a good rogue player to begin with

oak sky
#

he is a good player

hollow river
#

?

oak sky
#

on warrior

hollow river
#

Sure

slow marsh
#

Oh makes sense then

hollow river
#

I think most rogues say sin is sleeper

oak sky
#

yeah but its the same idea

hollow river
#

I’ve never heard any non rogue player say that

oak sky
#

people hop on sin and dont know things

kind talon
#

i think most "good rogues" can play sin

#

like

slow marsh
#

Anyone who plays warrior and rogue has something wrong with them

slow marsh

👀

oak sky

🤔

most rogues i know are good at sin

#

and can play it

100%

oak sky

💀

#

100%

kind talon
#

even those that prefer other specs

slow marsh
#

Anyone can play any spec

#

You just activate it

kind talon

only ppl that i know that cant or dont play sin are one tricks

#

like skip :)

he plays a bit of sub but

oak sky

i mean

#

any good

kind talon

point stands

subtle tundra

skip the community council member??

oak sky

should be capable of learning any spec

kind talon
oak sky

its more about effort

and knowledge

#

than anything else

slow marsh
#

Ye

oak sky
#

some good rogues cba optimizing sin

#

and thats fine

kind talon
#

who lol

slow marsh
#

Its more about comfortability and you're usually more comfortable the more you play any given spec

oak sky

#

asking @slow marsh mainly who he means

#

feel free to dm

subtle tundra

wait you can receive both items in m+

im just curious

For what

kind talon
oak sky
#

@subtle tundra yea ive seen a hpal get the healing trinket and ring from cos

subtle tundra
#

damn

kind talon
#

i think its only legion m+

#

warrior got 2 items one time

#

lol

subtle tundra
#

weird

#

received 2 items, neither the trinket

#

must be bugged

#

no dagger from vault

#

i think this game is currently under construction

oak sky

unlucky

How long is it worth delaying shiv for Vendetta for? Say my shiv is ready and my next vendetta is in 15 seconds, do I delay shiv or use and then delay the vendetta for 10 seconds to have them line up or what's the correct decision there? New assa gamer, so apologies if this is obvious but I couldnt find anything about this in detail

oak sky
#

12s is the normal rule

umbral tulip
#

So if it's 13 seconds, do I use it and then delay my vendetta for the next shiv? Or just use vendetta when it comes up and use shiv during that vendetta?

oak sky
#

you wouldnt delay vendetta

#

you would just send vendetta then delay vanish until shiv is back up

umbral tulip
#

I see, ty

#

would I also use flag if that was up with the vanish and shiv then or send that with vendetta straight away?

oak sky
#

usually we send flag on cooldown and only line it up with vendetta if we don't lose a cast of it

#

but you would just use it with vendetta if they both came up around the same time

umbral tulip
#

aight thanks dude peepoLove

oak sky
#

a lot of this kind of stuff is in pins and faqs as well idk if you checked those out yet

#

but always happy to answer any questions that arent there or clarify anything

umbral tulip
#

I did read the FAQ and pins and most of the wowhead guide, but I might have missed it

#

I just recall wowhead guide saying if vendetta was coming up soon you could hold shiv, just wasnt sure what that meant exactly

oak sky
#

yeah, it isnt super clear

#

you can hold a little longer than 12 seconds its basically just making sure you get as many casts of shiv as possible in the whole fight

balmy condor
#

Rewriting the entire rotation page is pain

strange python
#

Shiv timing on sylv annoying

#

The shiv that lines up with her jumping away and then not lasting enough before veil makes me sad

#

Also. 52% crit chance but winds of winter only crit 32%. Rip

balmy condor
#

Should’ve played better I guess

slow marsh
#

I mean if you know you're not getting 9s value of shiv or close to it then just don't press it until you will

strange python
#

There's a specific time on sylv where she's about to do Dom chains into veil and delaying shiv would lose a cast

#

But you still don't get full value

slow marsh
#

Ye I mean just sucks to suck either way you lose

balmy condor
#

Bad cast better than no cast

strange python
#

Too sleepy or I'd check logs to figure out which. I think it's like 4th or 5th shiv

Funny part about rotations is that people who don’t want to execute complex rotations don’t ever seem to believe in simple suggestions and ask for the complex ones instead. 😦

slow marsh
#

They are actually yellow namers that didn't want to get memed on anymore

strange python
#

I'd play outlaw if it was thematically a clown

#

Instead of pirate

slow marsh
#

I used to think the same way pal

fleet anchor
#

“Is it really as easy as keep bleeds on pandemic and mash Mutilate and Envenom randomly? It can’t be. Please supply me with the 182 cast sequence that’s actually optimal.”

strange python
#

Also we gave our tank veinripper over me /shrug

“Surely it must be more optimal to use TB when at 34.5 energy, 4.9 combat points, and 2.1 seconds before Vendetta.”

Scaling???

fleet anchor
#

I also saw a top log that would be a grey parse if they didn’t have 19 externals.

strange python
#

Sin scales

fleet anchor
#

What a time to be alive

strange python
#

Sin scales with all stats so it'll be top spec next patch

balmy condor
fleet anchor
#

Sigma said it was ok

slow marsh
#

Hey so next patch since we will have so much haste does that mean sin will finally scale up to be bis spec again

balmy condor
#

Sounds more like a chad to me

charred wraith
#

not the scaling take notlikethis

umbral rapids
#

ah yes, the scaling thing

strange python
#

Will we take exsang to scale with 4set?

umbral rapids
#

been a while

fleet anchor
#

Surely their raid giving someone who barely knows the rotation 19 externals is maximizing their raid’s chances of success, right? Working as intended.

slow marsh
#

Community problem

balmy condor
#

Yeah some people just play for parse

strange python
balmy condor
#

And that’s fine

#

Parses are just a harmless, no stake game to play

fleet anchor
#

Wait so I’m having a hard time understanding this scaling thing.

balmy condor
#

Which doesn’t impact like recruitment or anything

umbral rapids
strange python
#

Yes

fleet anchor
#

Mages always scale best in the last patch. But SL only has 2 patches and Mages never scale well early in the xpac. Which is true?!

subtle tundra

no, ass chat is serious mode only

It’s sucky

I only get 1 mythic vault each week now...

I have 1 from heroic vault

subtle tundra

cant wait to play 2 omega good push weeks with only 1 dagger

balmy condor
strange python
#

We just do Tara kt sylv and call it

fleet anchor
#

Also I get more and more convinced the RNG on the GV is broken as sin every week

subtle tundra
#

put it on outlaw?

slow marsh
#

I need to open vault as sub then I'll get it for sure

fleet anchor
#

How tf is it even numerically possible for me to get bracers 7 weeks in a row with only 2 on the loot table.

balmy condor
slow marsh
#

Aw darn

subtle tundra
#

i have an idea, what if i dont open vault for a month straight and i get one omega christmas/month

strange python
#

Tokens? Plz?

#

Or like, kill boss 10 times pick loot

fleet anchor
#

I haven’t even seen like 11 items on the loot table in my GV ever. That’s like a third. It defies statistics.

strange python
#

Or shrink loot table

fleet anchor
#

Bracers are like what a 2/30odd chance?

balmy condor
fleet anchor

It’s insane

slow marsh

Na loot table should be bigger but vault needs to allow a targeted pool

I feel like weekly chest had higher chance of getting 252 weapon than 6 slot GV lul

i like the vault freezing idea

slow marsh
#

I'm gonna make an alt rogue named whispyrer and get into your guild so I can wipe on guardian with you and it'll be fun

strange python
#

Our buyer got mythic bow today. We're selling to a rogue next week. If he gets dagger I will kill myself.

fleet anchor
#

Honestly the chances of me getting bracers in 2 GV slots 7 weeks in a row is so absurdly low it’s unbelievable

#

Have better chances of winning the lottery

strange python

I will do it

If I pull dagger I'm equipping it right in front of my GMs face

i bet hes frost

strange python

Fuck his sale

oak sky
subtle tundra
strange python
#

I'd rather lose our entire sale to a ticket than give a mythic dagger to a buyer

fleet anchor
#

Part of me wonders if it’s a two pass RNG thing where it rolls a slot then an item or something.

subtle tundra
#

i love when gms bring shitter alt to main raid and when i want to gear my shitter mage i get fucked

fleet anchor
#

But it’s really wonky

balmy condor
slow marsh
#

Just delete vault plz

fleet anchor
#

Anyway 1 dagger is fine.

strange python
fleet anchor
#

That’s all I need to use all next tier anyway

What if blizzard just makes the drops you need rarer in the vault in order to keep you playing and increase play time metrics

slow marsh

What if you wanting the second dagger is just a community problem and you stopped caring about your dps on a class that has no utility?

I’m the only one of those allowed

oak sky

dont worry whispyr

i would never abandon you like that

im no FF player

WF kills were without a Mythic dagger and thus they aren’t actually needed. Doing more damage is just a community perception issue and that’s not our problem.

Watching our hunters face on stream as he stared at his heroic bow while the buyer looted mythic bow was pure pain.

I'm so scared that's gonna be me next week

one of our hunters got 259 bow on kill

FF combat system is too janky and ezpz no skill I'd rather just keep paying 500k for kindred + PI + faeries + focus magic to get real rank 1s

oak sky

balmy condor

Exactly

M+ score is just community perception

yea, why are you doing 27s? rio is a community problem

Wake up sheeple

scoreboards are an invention of the community

fleet anchor

DPS is just a hoax created by big theorycraft to keep them employed

Stop using ranking websites they don't line up with our game design

If you can't get accepted into +27s on the merits of your bigtitty drawing that got 400 upvotes on r/wow then really that's a community problem.

Worst part about Sigma’s argument is that externals are actually used in a way that is often exceptionally detrimental to raid success rather than to empower it. Because epeening is too big.

Well it can’t be 22% when the tier is 100% during vendetta

at least this way they can see people hard disagreeing and refuting their take

hopefully

slow marsh

which might lead to change and/or future feedback

fleet anchor
#

Can always hope. But the externals convo seems to feel remarkably similar to the Covenant one.

slow marsh
#

Oh so we just have to wait 2 years then

oak sky
#

and the covenant one got changed eventually

#

its not like they were removing externals

#

its a spell

#

next expansion it could happen potentially

fleet anchor
#

We just need 50% of people to quit again to get externals removed!

#

I think they will reevaluate for next xpac though

#

I’d like to hope anyway

slow marsh
#

Yeah idk externals sound fun but then choosing who out of 19 people to use it on sounds so much worse

muted ivy
#

Just make externals similar to blessing of autumn where the dmg goes to the caster

fleet anchor
#

Externals can be designed in a way that they aren’t bad

slow marsh
#

Externals should be smaller and affect a whole party imo

fleet anchor
#

Not all externals are bad

#

PI and Kyrian are bad

muted ivy

Only toxic when it directly improves the buffed persons performance
