yeah so we 100% skip 1 sepsis vendetta

#

And every 2nd one lines up

hollow river
#

yeah

novel arrow
#

I'm excited!

#

this really seems fun

hollow river
#

and you should have shiv for those iirc

#

there is some hold logic for shiv

oak sky
#

yeah shiv for every vendetta and every sepsis

hollow river
#

you treat shiv as a 30sec CD basically?

oak sky
#

i think vanish just sends with vendetta+shiv every 2mins

novel arrow
#

I'd assume right? Especially with most fights being 4 mins

#

4 mins to 5 mins

#

U'd just hold last vendetta to line up everything

hollow river
#

gonna feel weird holding shiv in that way peophammer

novel arrow
#

I'm a zug zug. I just press shiv . The most I'd wait is about 10 secs either way before or after.

#

I'd never shiv like 10 secs before a cd. but if it's 15. I'd just shiv

#

especially with shiv value now

oak sky
#

its the same hold shiv 12s for vendetta as before but you always hold it for sepsis

#

wait

#

i mean

#

for sepsis

#

on the 2nd one

novel arrow
#

yeah 100%. But towards the end. With most fights. waiting 10 secs with vendetta doesn't fit in an extra use either way.

oak sky
#

yeah yeah for sure

novel arrow
#

I think as long as I dont ever wait long enough to screw an extra use

#

I'm pretty happy

oak sky
#

end of the fight is always a little different

novel arrow
#

Yo so can we talk about

#

NF soul binds.

#

We dont like nyaa?

oak sky
#

we like dreamweaver

novel arrow
#

I remember a time where we used to love the trap dmg

hollow river
#

dreamweaver ST

novel arrow
#

Sorry I never ever discuss NF because the cov is dead. So I'm catching up

hollow river
#

korayn AoE

oak sky
#

the dreamweaver capstone trait is pretty good for us

#

i dont think the niya one is very good

novel arrow
#

But that Nyaa haste is up like 60% of the time

#

I always loved that.

#

But yes. The dreamweaver 3% is huge .

#

Koryn is actually so good in pvp.

#

Just fyi

#

u constantly have 10% up. I love my girl.

#

You think we gonna swap off NF for multi target fights?

oak sky
#

mmmm

novel arrow
#

Necro for sure? or 2 - 3 target cleave?

oak sky
#

probably not

novel arrow
#

really ? 😮

#

OUR BOY SBS!

oak sky
#

problem with necro is deathspike is minimal gain for st

#

so even in cleave you just lose a lot of overall damage

Does anyone know where to see Sepulcher guides?

balmy condor

not out yet

fathom swift
balmy condor
#

get ready for making a profile and then having to change the code on 90% of the items to match the naming conventions and guidelines

fathom swift
#

looking forward to every profile using dungeon trinkets cause most of the raid ones don't even work on the ptr, let alone in sims

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

method guide was like "suggest some trinkets to farm"

#

me, sitting there, not even knowing what raid trinkets drop or do

fathom swift
#

"tazavesh"

balmy condor
#

idk farm a phial or something

#

leave me alone

#

by the time you farm phial from your 90th plaguefall the trinkets will work

#

maybe

fathom swift
#

also optimizing unity slot...

balmy condor
#

bruh

#

don't get me started

#

"where do I craft legendaries"

#

in.... a slot I guess

#

crafting in a tier slot is probably a bad idea

#

"yeah but we only need 4 and there's 5 and chest is high stat so we craft chest later?"

#

sure?

fathom swift
#

yeah fv is the same

#

back/chest

burnt latch
#

Craft it in the tier piece slot that has the worst stat budget 4head

balmy condor
#

idk people trying to optimize crafting items they won't have access to for another month and a half

#

give me giga anxiety

#

as if having like 7 deadlines coming up to a patch isn't bad enough

fathom swift
#

yeah im glad i only have wowhead (plus reviewing half the melee guides)

balmy condor
#

like the slot really doesn't matter, craft it somewhere

burnt latch
#

Knowing me ill probably end the patch having unity crafted in like 10 slots because the ideal spot changes every time i get a mythic item omegalul

I actually thought about this, and ull probably end up crafting it into a lot of slots if youre trying to min max during early prog

I feel like ring will prob end up good for a lot of specs to craft on? guaranteed socket, get to pick best secondaries, only 1 max ilvl one available, can't craft on high budget slots cause tier

If you get a mythic item in a legendary slot, means u can just craft unity again in another slot thats heroic ilvl

is it poop stats

timid cloud
#

FUCK THE SACK

balmy condor
#

I don't see tazavesh trinkets being that good

#

numbers atm don't add up

timid cloud
#

This is a mastery haters Discord.

vestal wren
#

i did sim the stat trinket for subtlety and it did beat phial

#

sack does not seem stronger tho

timid cloud
#

Weird. It does arcane damage & also is mastery weighted with no primary.

#

Might just be proc chance is high, but I swore they nerfed that too, since it was bugged awhile back, was it not?

fathom swift
#

yeah was the same when I was looking at them, soleahs is giga and sack is not post nerf

vestal wren
#

i mean it is rly easy to sim by just adding those to gear compare

#

so for what its worth you can already evaluate the dungeon trinkets if you want

timid cloud
#

Then again, Faulty Countermeasure is also a strange trinket.

vestal wren
#

you won't be able to get a upgrade for that very soon

timid cloud
#

Yeah...

#

Just uncap valor pls...

#

I know why they don’t, obviously, but it is quite nice.

vestal wren
#

contermeasure is also likely worth a bit less in 9.2 given the loss of the frost set

drifting cosmos
#

thats good news tho, never liked farming that

vestal wren
#

i mean, it could still be powerful, but probably not to the point it was this cycle

drifting cosmos
#

i also dont understand all the legendary best in slot questions, like i probably not even gonna craft anything till like week 6-7

#

and in 9.2.5 they might open up more slots for legendries

#

Hi, you called?

marble hemlock
#

I'll shut up about LBE, but you're not gonna like what comes next.

balmy condor
#

uh oh

#

seli boutta come up with some kyrian ep nighstalker exsang tech and wreck my shit

marble hemlock
#

Can you guess what it is?

#

Nah

#

But I would like to know how much better Marileth becomes depending on how many SBS resets/minute you get. Since it drastically increases Kevin Uptime, meaning a longer uptime on the 6% damage amp

balmy condor
#

oh that's not bad

marble hemlock
#

Also not sure if its modeled correctly in simc, actually

#

Cause ingame the debuff lingers quite a long time, even after switching targets

#

So in a multitarget scenario, you can ahve the kevin debuff up on 4-5 targets, not just 1

agile geode
#

btw, by 9.2 sims necro is better than 9.1 even in st thanks to 4p, i mean, by 9.1 sims the difference between necro and venthyr is about 500 600, and in 9.2 the difference is lower 11.750 necro and 12100 nfae

#

is it right?

balmy condor
#

that's a @fleet anchor question, but I think he did some of that stuff in 9.1 when he looked at kevin originally

#

I remember him implementing a bunch of janky stuff he found while testing

agile geode
#

so necro would me more playable in 9.2 than 9.1

#

sounds nice

#

but y maybe in dmg check bosses or full st bosses is a safe pick nfae

balmy condor
#

so kevin is already 1.7% better in HAC over the standard heirmir thing, now we just have to tune it down until they're equal to find a semi-break point

marble hemlock
#

too bad using deathspike doesnt give you 2 kevins

#

can you imagine

#

casting 5 sbs back to back and youd get 10 kevins?

warm drift
#

Kevinarmy

steel ridge
#

Kevin is a wild boi

balmy condor
#

hectic add cleave

bleak sky
#

o

marble hemlock
#

but yeah, i think people are underestimating necro, as always

#

cause by design it wont sim as high on raw singletarget

#

but comes with some extra goodies other covenants dont have

vale marten
#

wont the court ring be bis? i was just reading about rings so thats why i asked

balmy condor
#

might be

#

but it's always gonna be a lower ilvl than other rings

vale marten
#

yeah but only 6 ilvl

balmy condor
#

that's 6 ilvl

vale marten
#

and if the mythic one really is crit/mast then has to be

balmy condor
#

not quite how that works

marble hemlock
#

And you'll never hear about how solid Necro is because Whispyr is being paid by the Nightfae Super-PAC to fund his hichew addiction.

visual hemlock
#

if i want to raid and stay relevant for raid, i no longer can stay venthyr? have to be nighfae?

balmy condor
balmy condor
marble hemlock
#

Tell them to stop subscribing to my onlyfans then

balmy condor
#

necro venth and fae are all probably fine

#

fae does more single target, necro does less, venth in the middle

#

necro does more aoe, fae does less, venth in the middle

#

the only unplayable covenant is kyrian

marble hemlock
#

Fae is like Worldvein, kinda blows when you have to move around a lot.

balmy condor
#

because kyrian is just all around awful

vale marten
#

ah man dont tell me necro is good at something, now i need to get renown on it haha

agile geode
balmy condor
#

necro has always been good at something

#

and that's anything with more than 1 target

marble hemlock
#

Necro is the most stable covenant of them all, imo

#

It's been very solid at #2/3 right behind the top-dogs since the expansion started

agile geode
marble hemlock
#

And thats always been pure st sims

random fossil
agile geode
#

you will prog by assa necro?

vale marten
#

but isnt the lego absoulte dogsit?

balmy condor
#

I don't see any necro on my raid chart seli

marble hemlock
#

Worldfirst Assa kill on Denathrius was Necro

agile geode
#

because they're unworthy

balmy condor
marble hemlock
#

And we had 2 Necro rogues on Sylvanas

balmy condor
#

really that's why necro is keeping up, and fae is giga all of a sudden

#

tier set interactions

vale marten
#

hm, well i guess it into thorgast for me yet again

balmy condor
#

kinda good

vestal wren
marble hemlock
#

Ye

#

The 40% damage amp from shiv affecting SBS initials is Stonks

vestal wren
#

btw. its rly interessting that necrolord falls back behind venthyr in 9.2 even in cleave for subtlety

marble hemlock
#

Now we just need zoldyck to do the same exsangery

agile geode
#

lol

marble hemlock
#

Would be some pretty sick execute with 5 SBS during shiv+zoldyck amp

balmy condor
#

so @marble hemlock here's some numbers and things which might be interesting. Each sim is 1 boss 5 min with add spawns. The adds are 15 seconds long, every 30 seconds, and I just changed how many adds spawn.

5 -> heirmir +1.2
4 -> heirmir -0.2
3 -> heirmir -1.1
2 -> heirmir -1.4
1 -> heirmir +0.6

marble hemlock
#

Thats overall, ye?

balmy condor
#

yes

marble hemlock
#

Can you run the same with the prio-line?

balmy condor
#

already included

marble hemlock
balmy condor
#

that's less interesting though tbh

marble hemlock
#

Dunno

balmy condor
#

they're equal on 1 add in terms of prio

marble hemlock
#

To me its more interesting. Having add respawns extend Kevin buff while you go full prio into boss just means that Marileth should pull ahead further

balmy condor
#

and then marileth just ahead by a solid 100-200

#

for 2-5

marble hemlock
#

Can you link or check Kevins Oozeling uptime on the boss?

agile geode
#

marileth is the play in 9.2?

balmy condor
#

yeah let me link, I'll pull those numbers up as well for you

marble hemlock
#

Feels like it should get higher prio the more targets there are to SBS, imo

#

Here, you dropped this šŸ‘‘ cause you're a king.

visual hemlock
#

is it true that assa is behind other rogue specs for raid? i heard even outlaw gonna beat assa in raid situation

vestal wren
#

no, assassination is atm even the statistically highest rogue spec on wcl

balmy condor
#

okay so first problem

#

I can't find uptime report

marble hemlock
#

That means I'm allowed to feelycraft, correct?

#

If no numbers exist, I can make them up, right?

balmy condor
#

I'm digging hold on

visual hemlock
#

i just wanna make sure i play assa in raids and dont suck šŸ˜„

marble hemlock
#

Necro bis next tier, EZ ClappeepoNO 🧢

agile geode
#

you're my father

balmy condor
#

aight I think I found it deep in the simc bowels

marble hemlock
#

But yeah, the way I see it, going full st rota and just throwing out SBS on adds should be a minor gain for Heirmir due to extra CP gained and potential SBS cleaves on prio target, but a fairly sizeable increase for Marileth due to the same behavior but adding Kevin Uptime on top of it

balmy condor
#
marble hemlock
#

Thanks for checking

balmy condor
#

I can also change the spawn interval

#

that might be interesting

#

any numbers?

marble hemlock
#

I mean, it wont really change anything unless its slower than every 30sec imo

#

I have one more ultimate challenge for you

balmy condor
#

okay

marble hemlock
#

Actually it's more of a challenge for Koji

balmy condor
#

is it going to bed at a reasonable hour

#

and not running necro sims at 2:45 in the morning

#

cause I'm fighting hard with that challenge

marble hemlock
#

Considering we still get 2 SBS charges refunded from a single mob dying if there's 2 Necro Rogues who both spiked it, and 3 charges refunded if theres 3, how big is the difference in prio damage for 2-3-4 Necro Rogues in the raid that all spike the same adds that are spawning, leading to almost permanent full SBS recharges

#

@outer lotus remembers how fun it was with double necro rogue on SLG Kekw

#

Couldn't spend the charges as fast as they came back in

#

But nah, Im joking ofc

#

It's just something to keep in mind for double rogue comps, its a fairly significant benefit if you play 2 rogues and both play necro

marble hemlock
#

Oh yeah council

#

Those were good times man

outer lotus
#

wait with deathspike fixed, does the multiple refunds work with deathspike?

#

cuz i think that could legit be a thing in m+ to stack rogues

marble hemlock
#

Secondary spikes still dont refund charges afaik

outer lotus
#

oh

#

right that was intended and not a bug

marble hemlock
#

They only fixed the secondary spikes "overwriting" they primary ones that refund

#

Psure out of that entire list, the only thing that was changed was the secondary charges overwriting primary ones and thus leading to not getting refunds at all

#

The remaining behavior is still the same/intended/hard to fix/low priority

outer lotus
#

i think secondary spikes not giving refunds was the intentional change they made to deathspike in 9.1 ptr though

#

that change just brought all the other bugs

marble hemlock
#

The entire SBS rework in 9.0.5 did that

#

When they added the +1CP behavior in, that never really worked properly

#

That made it so you get CP on hit, not on cast

balmy condor
# marble hemlock Considering we still get 2 SBS charges refunded from a single mob dying if there...

well, that's not something I can sim, but I can napkin math that logic out real quick.

So the premise is that you're getting 2 resets instead of 1 on a mob dying, which would be roughly the same thing (minus the 1 gcd), as doubling the mobs dying. If you assume that the energy gain from extra targets benefits both of them equally and the extra gcd spiking a second target is a statistical irrelevant figure, you can simply take the linked sims, hop up in power of 2's, so 1 add would be the prio of 2 adds, 2 adds would be the prio of 4, etc. But since the difference in prio doesn't change too much based on the target counts, it's safe to assume running 2 necro rogues or even 3 necro rogues would result in the 100-200 dps increase on prio from marileth that you see from the add spawns.

balmy condor
marble hemlock
#

šŸ™‚

outer lotus
#

gotta keep in mind that each rogue you add buffs every other rogue too

#

so if you go from 2 necro rogues to 3, not only does that 3rd rogue get 2 extra refunds but also the other 2 rogues get one extra

agile geode
#

the necrolord family

outer lotus
#

so you go from getting 4 refunds per dead enemy to 9 by adding another rogue

marble hemlock
#

Well, I do think it adds a noticeable amount of prio, as instead of having to SBS 2 targets in 2 GCDs, you SBS 1 target once, and use the other GCD to cast an additional SBS on the main-target. So for each add dying, you gain 1 SBS cast on the prio-target. During Shiv that is a pretty solid amount of extra damage, especially when the spawn-interval of adds is high.

This is Sel trying to make SBS work.

in the 2nd half of council i just stopped casting pistol shot or sinister strike

timid cloud

I was the only NL Rogue on Sire. SAD

outer lotus
#

juts sbs > finisher

marble hemlock
#

Yeah I was about to say

outer lotus
#

cuz they all gave max CP too because dead bodies kept counting for active spikes lul

marble hemlock
#

On certain fights youd just get 4 or 5 CP from every SBS

vestal wren
#

beta sbs was insane

balmy condor
#

MA vanish and afk has to work at some point right COPIUM it's never worked but that's because people doing it wrong, if sbs exsang'd like it did on PTR it would definitely be worth trust me guys

timid cloud
#

Did they fix that SBS bug that if you targeted something that you weren't in combat with, you could pull it anyways because the game thought you had SBS on it?

warm drift
#

Last id it wasn't

#

Because i pulled fate twice and everybody yelled at me. I was afk btw

marble hemlock
#

It's related to Sylvanas

#

Idk why

#

But I've only ever had it happen to me, after killing Sylvanas and going back for other bosses

#

And a relog fixed it

warm drift
#

Oh yeah we killed her first

marble hemlock
#

Like

warm drift
#

Yes it did indeed

#

Didn't know if it was the reload what fixed it

marble hemlock

There's some super weird shit going on with Sylvanas not technically dying, so the SBS never runs out properly, or rather, the hidden debuff doesn't, so you target smth and the debuff still "ticks" and can proc Sudden Fractures. So by targeting smth, you have a x% chance (based on your SF conduit rank) to pull the boss because you will get a SF proc on it even from 100y away

#

At least that's my explanation of it

There's quite a few things why it's a bit scuffed, like it being a fixed sim

#

We always use variance in our sims

scenic kelp
#

i farm renown for necro. do i need the campaign to unlock emeni and heirmir? i never did necro campaign fyi

spice spire
#

Yes

scenic kelp
#

yes i need to do the campaign? šŸ˜„

alpine latch
#

Yes, you do. Each covenant has at least 1 of the soulbinds locked behind the covenant

#

So if you've never done it before, it doesn't auto-unlock

scenic kelp
#

kk ty for info!

alpine latch
#

For Venthyr it's Theo

#

You actually have to save him from a cage before you can use him

scenic kelp
#

gracias

paper nacelle
#

emeni has her own little side quest.

oblique lark
limber lion
#

What does that even mean

#

We use variance in all of our sims

oblique lark
#

i can add default variance 20%

limber lion
#

because the game does not work in a fixed fashion

#

Always use variance

oblique lark
#

i know my boss timers

limber lion
#

No you don't

oblique lark
#

i dont need variance

limber lion
#

They literally change every week

#

lol

#

It literally changes

#

every time

oblique lark
#

okay ...

limber lion
#

depending on how much damage people do

#

if someone dies

#

if you got all buffs

#

if someone gets crits

#

if someone gets bad mechanics

unborn needle
#

What he's trying to say is, he always plays perfect. He's the exception. šŸ™‚

oblique lark
#

lol

limber lion
#

By killing variance entirely in the sim, you will get a botched result that ONLY works if the fight is exactly that time

#

My Guardian kills are around 3:40

#

so I would sim something like 3:50 with 20s variance both ways

#

or 3:40 with 10s variance

#

But I can assure you

#

that you will not

#

hit that 3:40 the next time you kill Guardian

#

For my guild, these are the kill timers from the past 6 weeks

#

and every time it's been a different time

#

It's never the same

#

That's because there's variance

#

in game

#

and in life

#

and in the sims

#

And the robot will sim your exact fight length that you're looking for hundreds of times even if there is variance

#

And if it was super duper better than everything else, it would pop out

unborn needle
#

Oh shit, he's still going!

limber lion
#

But more often than not the 10-30s variance will kill certain setups

#

You can never predict what is going to happen in the future

oblique lark
#

for a 5 minute fight spread is 1 minute, of course this greatly affects the exsang build, I just showed that it is POSSIBLE (yes on the fixed 5 minutes, but there exsang is not used optimally) and if you add the dependence on the timer (as it was in nyalotha), and at other timers, it can be better than alacrity

limber lion
#

You can't predict a team mates death, an entire raid groups dps, mechanics etc.

#

Yeh

#

Just don't follow no-variance sims like a bible please

#

You'll see awful results if you always trust them

#

Just a 5s difference can make or break a build

#

Because it'll force the apl to hold/sync differently throughout the fight

brazen sonnet
oblique lark
#

ofc with 0 deaths etc

#

and it worked

drifting cloud
#

I assume you can change the default 20% variance to a lower number?

glossy olive
oblique lark
limber lion
#

5% is a good number

bleak sky
#

Yes I know the exact timers I always kill guardian at 3:44:73 because my frost shard always procs with a 52% crit rate and my teammates are all at 61.5% crit rate

#

Warriors always get the same amount of procs

oblique lark
#

now first use exsang on 25+ sec

bleak sky
#

Don't even get me started on the dhs always getting a reset on felblade 92% of the time sheesh

#

I need MORE BUTTONS

oblique lark
#

+ambush for fae +exsang

hollow river
#

Sin needs more abilities poggers

spice spire
limber lion
#

It's just that the apl currently does not recognize that the Vendetta with 4p will halve the duration of the bleeds

#

so it never uses Exsang during Vendetta

vestal wren
#

18k does sound rly high in output tho

limber lion
#

Which causes the massive variance in the sim, because it will keep using Exsang on cooldown (because I tested removing the conditions from it), which causes for omega high spikes because of amazing sync

#

or omega shit dps because you use an exsang before a vendetta and have to reapply bleeds soon after

#

and so on

#

But not sure why removing the Exsang line

#

goes from maximum being 18k

#

to maximum being

#

40k

spice spire

Yeah idk how to even write the rule in.
But monkaGIGA

exsang was always a pain to optimize ^^

Like "if 4p enabled and debuff Vendetta up, all of * these * conditions will now halve"

Vendetta with the 4p tierset allows you to halve the duration of existing bleeds and any bleeds reapplied during Vendetta. With the current version these exsanguinated bleeds continue ticking at double the rate, even after Vendetta ends.

The 4p isn’t exactly a snapshot or is it?

limber lion

Not quite

hollow river

I just used that term to describe it

Snapshotting is when abilities effectively "snapshot" to the state when they were applied, rather than dynamically updating as a buff or debuff falls off

limber lion

Snapshotting is a bit of a grey zone because some classes snapshot things different

visual prairie
#

what is a MUD? as someone who has mad 11 of them, i imagine you know how to explain it well

limber lion
#

Like previously we could snapshot with Exsang, so instead of applying the snapshot when you apply the buff, you applied it when you pressed Exsanguinate.

Hey guys. what slot should I craft Zoldyck on necro sin. Legs or feet? Is feet gonna be set slot? if not I guess feet will be best slot for Zold.

hollow river
#

Why Zoldycks?

#

M+ only enjoyer?

brave moth
#

yes

hollow river
#

Hmm

spice spire
#

Legs right now.
And if you get 4 pieces elsewhere, you’d definitely want to stay legs

brave moth
#

Yeah the idea is to have crit/haste in each slot

spice spire
#

But if legs end up being part of the 4p you obtain first, feet.

#

On m+, you lose a bit of haste prio since you’ll have multiple bleeds to keep your energy regen up

hollow river
#

If you only do m+ mastery is decent

spice spire
#

Best to sim that kinda stuff tho happybear

hollow river
brave moth
#

That makes sence @spice spire

#

But there's a chance they change the slot for Zoldyck? from feet/legs to something else?

hollow river
#

Doubt it tbh

#

Never know tho

brave moth
#

but haste increase tick rate of dots right? or not really so much. So you guys recommend going for crit/mastery for M+ as sin.

carmine dawn
#

Haste does increase tick rate, correct

#

People are just saying crit/haste is the best, but if you’re only doing m+, settling for mastery gear isn’t the worst thing ever

#

But run sims so you don’t fuck yourself

brave moth
#

is it possible to run aoe simm?

carmine dawn
#

Yeah dungeon slice is good for rogue

#

Dungeon slice is only as good as the people who keep the sim updated, and as far as we know rogue TCs are the only ones that do

#

That’s why everyone says dungeon slice is bad

#

It’s bad for everything but rogue (as far as I know, idk I’m a rogue one trick)

alpine latch
#

Oh shit, that reminds me ... Zoldyck goes where in 9.2? I didn't see that in the pin.

#

I presume it's not pants still?

brave moth
#

addon or website? cuz im using raidbots for ST sim

spice spire
#

Dungeon slice is good, you can also just do a multi-patchwork sim on x time @brave moth

carmine dawn
#

It’s in raidbots

brave moth
#

well i just logged into ptr and saw that the legs tier piece gives crit/haste

carmine dawn
#

Just change patchwork to dungeon slice

spice spire
#

Raidbots can be changed to dungeon slide

brave moth
#

@alpine latch

So probably feet because pants give crit/haste
