Well we were too late to save the tree 
Idk the decision making but I never went for it. The only difference now is I don’t have to ping for threads. And I can mute people which I hope to never do.
Mute me

mute me bitch
I won’t abuse power
Only deserving mutes here friends
Your dog isn't even that cute
You’re already better than Oxi.
That’s a lob.
I thought you were bae. Turns out you're just fam.
🤟
that's too far @slow marsh
doomblade
Ok you're right I'm sorry
Get this mans outta here.
You're just mad I wont show you my toes
ty @gusty mirage


PO-TAY-TOES?
That’s rude 
Warrior mains getting cf and not even muting anybody smh
My cats are cuter than anything else, fax
hm
whats the best way to work shiv into m+ with the 2p
I think george and ashcats have to be equal
Warrior main TBD
calls himself a OTP and then he might swap warrior
AWKWARD
are there pack size/number of bleeds conditions?
wdym
I'm pretty sure the bot still throws it on CD

idk like whats the best time to pop shiv during a pack
I'd have to look tbh
oxi is just FunnyBot
fuu specifically said he looked and this and didnt like it
I'll see if I can find his message
her messgae
idk
His
We're all genderless meatbags on the internet
But I think you shiv after garrets + CT then spread rup
is there a comparison between specs? just wanna play what is more optimal early on
for progression
ight ty 👍
sylvanas?
Ye
i dont have on mythic
Sub keeps EoN(s) significantly longer than Sin
But then again I only have one and my sub is only ~400 ahead of my sin with shards turned off
til end of xpac, unless something changes by my understanding
So pretty typical, whichever spec you're better at, but sub has an edge (pun intended)
I know Whisp has it pinned but what's the consensus in Sub? Is Mythic EoN better than the Mythic dagger from Sep?
check sub pins
Yeah in oh

They were talking about some degenerate weapon swapping at 50% some shit yesterday too so
So the BiS for Sub is Mythic Sep MH / Mythic EoN OH, interesting
what do you think black powder is?
it's bottles of their BO
It's just what happens when a spec is super good then gets nerfed out of existence for so long
They're like little crack babies
I mean talent swapping, 20 second prepull setups and now mid encounter weapon swaps
like someone come stop these fools
Make the weapon unswappable, just like Jotunger is right now for melee.
people memeing on sin in keys but then beating them is the best feeling
Ez fix.
fuck the haters
I mean good for them that they get to do it I guess. Just sucks our best prepull is mfd snd for like 3 dps
That's less cringe.
I am a vanish mut env mfd env enjoyer
Love doing pre-pull shenanigans just for some dum-dumb to grief me.
prepull is for picking my nose
boomy prepulls and then you are stuck with a 190 ilvl neck on with no leggo 
pre-pull is for petting my dog
⤴️
It really is a Boomie every time, isn't it
I see that one wrath cast flying over my head and I know its over
You use Shroud during the countdown, I hope
I walk around in stealth all day, I know how close I can walk. These monkeys walk around in the open so when they get into stealth they walk up and try to slap the bosses' ass
and bam, floor hugger
my favorite is shrouding and then shadowstepping to the ranged 2 seconds before pull to freak the melee out
That's what I mean, condition them to expect it, then just don't do it one time and see what happens.
Pavlov's Shroud, bitches

Does the Dust trick work and recommend for Assassination as well, or is it worth for Sub only?
sub only
what about for followers
Shame we can't do something with the Shards after this week.
all my homies hate shards
except me bc the 2 characters I raided on I got all 9 in under 2 lockouts :)
I meant exchange them for gold or something
Right now we'll either keep them in the piece and put it in the bank or take the shard out and put that in Void Storage
what is void storage

how is it different from the bank
It's more bank space that you pay to withdraw your items from 
I don't even know what's in my Void Storage, I forget it exists so often.
I should look at it
hey gamers, was just wondering...is 41% crit and 13% haste good as necro sin for raiding in sod? :o
raiding in sod ?
It's fine. If you could drop some mastery for more haste would prob be better
Pretty much stack as much crit as you can and then take whatever you get for the other secondaries is how it usually goes
i get lost in translation what the duskwalker leggo effet? There is so much with this name
lower vendetta cooldown
thx
for every 30energy spend it lowers 1 second on your vendetta
does that affect how we pool at all?
not really
the rotation for NF double leggo is pretty simple too when you reduce it to numbers
its a 3-1-2-1 pattern every 30 seconds
what are the threes twos and ones lol
oh oh
3 (0:00) - vendetta sepsis shiv
1 (0:30) - shiv
2 (1:00) - vendetta shiv
1 (1:30) - shiv
(repeat x3)
and that is for a 4:30 fight or shorter
ye that but it's gonna be a minute before you have to worry about htat anyways
yeah gotchu, thought you were talking about something else
whispyr explains it here: #916546791472783371 message
but its quite wordy so the pattern helped me understand it
regular rotation for an encounter longer than 4:30 is:
3-1-2a-2b-2a-1
a = vendetta. b = sepsis

do you ever use ambush if youre not specced into blindside?
i think in m+ its a bit of a gain to use it
nope, you only use ambush if you're specced into either blindeside or subterfuge, or if you're night fae
ok thanks
Is ambush a mininal gain in dungeons?
good morning oxi!
Yes, Ambush is a gain when using subterfuge on single target.
But it's pretty minimal and you don't have to think about it too much
On aoe you always prioritize garrotes
hi cev :)
sup
whats poppin
easy responses to anyone questioning your place in raid, feel free to use
lol
average dratnos enjoyers
I think they need to not forget that was a prediction
not this is definitively how good each spec is
Hey guys, is there a pin with the night fae opener?
all that stuff will be updated in the guides soon i'm sure
👍

Green looks good on you
Not half as good as it looks on the other boys tho
Ty tho papi
Hope to be a good figure for all the assassination homies
You definitely have a good figure 
I'll turn your insides into a figure 8 if you know what I mean
Bros?!
yeah bro?
Sorry the new clothes just got me excited
Oof
want one of my eyes?
that big toe
Yessir
How big is the gap between performance for all the covenants? trying to decide what i want to go as like, my main covenant on my rogue

check the pins
god tier emote
Thank you papi 
Hey better than outlaw almost getting put in C tier
I was surprised Outlaw wasn't immediately in C or swamp ass personally.
Good tier set, decent double lego
but the numbers overall are just super low and doesn't really bring anything to a raid.
I think guy was messaging him saying “don’t you dare put it in C” 
Anyways, 9.2 dropping in a few days. I'm kinda hyped to get to play WoW again after such a long time
do we know which 9.2 NF soulbinds seems to be best?
Yes, Dreamweaver.
Alright appreciate it, trying to get it setup ahead of time
they just found a huge gain earlier
venthyr dust KS
dust is like 10% over cele and KS is 5% over blade rush so there's some stuff brewing for the pirates
Venthyr outlaw is pretty cool tbh
No, according to Guy's sims Outlaw is around 14.8-14.9
So now they play dreadblades KS
but not sure what his profile is like
Anyways, still behind by a lot
could use an assa rogue treatment
Aura buff szn
he's said multiple times the profiles are scuffed but ye i get what you mean
like the tier still isn't anything to write home about
ye or just straight up making the 4pc buff bte damage or something
Yes
It could still be tuned higher but its not shit tier or anything
nah the new version is miles better than the original
just needs some damage love
das it
ye
a 6cp bte just isn't enough damage to justify a 4p imo
but the free cps and the extra cp finisher for cdr makes it function well
What’s everyone’s thoughts on shiv? I think it’s about time they seperate it for sin, keep shiv a soothe and a seperate CD that increases nature dmg and 2pc interaction
we take what we can get
feel like the sin rotation would be much more boring without it
yeah not sure why they decided to cake in toxic blade into our "utility"
but it is what it is I guess
"about time"? The shiv interaction is a completely new thing introduced in Shadowlands. Shiv, previously Toxic Blade, was a damage amplification and nothing more.
But yes, it is pretty dumb that it's tied to Shiv, when it's one of our more stronger buttons.
Yeah that’s sorta what I’m referring to, reintroduce toxic blade as baseline for us and have something seperate we can use for soothes. Going into pug keys explaining why I can’t soothe 
just pretend you don't speak english
Well, usually the soothe is more important than whatever small amount of damage you get from Shiv
and if they know the language you're pretending to speak instead, tell them you're blind
I think I might just make a macro that says “guys I’m sorry I can’t be relied on for soothes, damage is tied to my 2pc set, why aren’t you bugging the Druid?”
Not really no.
max list looking real diff from dratnos WHO DO I BELEIVE
screenshot?
OKAY THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION
he just calls people and asks them, so if you don't like rogue ones blame whispyr
its only people not in top guilds i think. and are like the community figures of the spec
cant tell if that's more biased or less lmao
yea he is getting his info from cm
Some are theorycrafters
like whys
as long as the people dont sandbag then it should be a "decent" tier list. as much as they can be. still is context and situational at best. bc most of the people are TC for their specs and know how it works etc
gotta watch out for those unethical ones
pretty sure hes just ranking them himself
has to be
sup black
i mean ye. most tier lists are based on an indivuals knowledge and biases
hai 🙂
whats poppin
farming choreghast for nf ;/
;/
Neither, tier lists generally bad. Tho afaik max asks the community for their perception as well as taking his own, so maybe that one.
Iirc no rogues were S-A tier for SoD and you see how that went
They’re mostly in good fun at least 
well if i dont beleive maxs that means i dont beleive whyspr
cuz thats who gave him the info
and whyspr is life
hundo p
sup quakeroats!
Howdy vita
heistin on path what u doin gamer
don't forget cuter
Did max made another tier list recently?
Rn
Can you link me ?
ytho
It ended, it was earlier today
yeah it was pretty sus anyways
other than the melee are strong and ranged kinda aren't bits
I enjoy tier lists because of the discussion around specs and stuff, but I dislike that they are tier lists if that makes sense
Preemptively ranking things seems unproductive given many things can change + unknown interactions can be found (mfd, frost set, etc. in SoD) but the discussion is nice
legit went from chilling at work to a call with max on my shit ass laptop mic in 2 minutes

noooooooo how could you rate my pet spec higher/lower than I think it is
my favorite is "why is outlaw so high" but if I put outlaw lower "why is outlaw so low"

lmao
Why isn’t outlaw in C-/D+ Tier 
Upper tier swamp ass
why isnt outlaw in d tier thats were drat put it !!!
!!!
sup whips!
to be fair me and tettles did talk about the ranking after
and he's like yeh makes sense but also I'm right
Oh
and I'm like yeh makes sense but also I'm right
Ruff
Hey guys, i have a few questions since im out of the loop. I read most of the stuff, but scrolling through disc looking for small bits of information is kinda rough. my main question is that for the first week of heroic raid, should i be nightfae? or should i go venthyr? and also what legendary would i be using for the first week, for both m+ and raid. thank you guys
If I'm not mistaken the wowhead guides have been updated for the most part
basically until double lego and tier, you're playing 9.1
venth
obed
all that good stuff
Necrolord in keys is going to be zold+deathspike with two legendaries and just zold with one afaik.
Once we hit our 4p, it’s dusk+unity in all content
necro in keys is also unity + dusk
thanks dad
we can't escape dusk
it's EVERYWHERE
Did you not read the 4p bit mister Minalba 
bro don't bully him cause he can't read
Bro I’d never bully a goat
there there @bleak sky it'll be okay come here buddy 
the word is Billy goat
I'll tell val and she'll beat him for us dw
She doesn’t need a reason
You’ve spoke with me for more than five minutes
Imagine living with me 

i bet u make a mean breakfast
It’s my only redeeming quality
His signature dish are his PanQuakes.. I’ll see myself out
food is great
foods the only thing that keeps me going bro
life sucks but at least i can make a fat fucking burrito with a soda and watch some stupid shit on twitch
HA good one

i had like 5 or 6 tacos/burritos yday
as you should eat ya dreams
i put pork and a bunch of different peppers in mine for the first time yesterday was super yummy
looking like 2222221 in 9.2?
after tier set and double leggo when we go NF yes
other than that, sim yourself as you go
subterfuge likely picks up once we have tier set
Okay so how bad is vers for sin in raid? On ptr my 255 bis feral is doing just as much as 270 rogue
ok?
Okay so it’ll likely be much higher with proper stats
It was literally my first question?
ig i meant like, comparing the dps
It’s okay I got my answer don’t hurt yourself trying to answer it
Jesus 

@hollow river how many fights will be pure st in next tier
Wondering if ventyr still be ok
On 2 target fights
Skolex, Dasani water (more or less),Halondrus rn @open reef
tbh I will be only playing Vent, it seems the most versatile(in both raiding and M+)
You’re prolly playing venth until you get double leggos and tier
Imo Necro may be better for that
Obviously depending on the fight you can adjust
...or not! Just noticed that Fea is NR1 in ST and NR2 in DSlice 🤔
Yeah, that's true. Though I will be just playing the "best spec", to master the rotation. The difference in DPS shouldn't be that high I guess
Each spec will have its day in the sun on different fights
But I understand what you mean 
Wdym outlaw does 15million DPS I saw the graphs today 
yeah, my guild is probably going to kill me because I'll suck before getting the 4PC double Lego 

You’ll be surprised. Learning fights means some melee DPS have a lot of boss downtime while handling new mechanics you should be fine as a DoT class
Hope so, I won't be going for the biggest upgrades first few weeks. I will be going straight to the BIS gear(in the late game).
I mean like: getting duskwalker ring instead of Obedience as Venthyr etc.
Don’t run Dusk until you have double leggo though
You could also play one of the other 2 specs until you get a 4pc
I will be using Dashing till I get proper items... won't waste gold on the legendary items that I won't be using in the late game. Especially on that dead realm (there are still 262 legendaries which cost >300k on AH).
I hate them though 
Rip
Yeah I get that if it’s a gold cost thing. You might want to sim as well honestly. If 235 is affordable for you obedience might be more worth
I dunno how shit Dashing becomes as a single leggo off the top of my head without frost gems
Well, still got doomblade because of PvP. So the NF is also a good option I guess
100% just run some sims and play what is BiS for you until you have the items you need
Guys, is sin shining 9.2 ? Any pros got by playing it in pvp pve ?
I like sub but Im used to sin aswell
Both pvp and pve stay sub tbh
yeah u dont need daggers on sin



In all seriousness, sin will pump with set bonus and double Lego

4 piece single lego?
doesnt sound impossible if split raiding for sure
granted u can mix normal + hc pieces
i think on pantheon you would go necro before 4p but everything else its venth before 4p
then at 4p nf st necro any cleave/adds
You can get giga luck and get 3pc heroic week and pull the 4th from M+ GV
yeah its possible

I mean I already have both of them 
but that's just statistics
I have one HC dagger and one 246 random dagger 
no one looted from NerZul or the vault
We might get some copypasta if you continue to mention slyv daggers
in the entire tier
That sounds hella unluck
even M Sylv didn't end my suffering
Yeah took my 15 M Sylv kills before I saw one from the actual boss loot
15 kills of two rogues in for every kill
i got my first one from vault and i got my 2nd from the boss then traded another
yeah i had an early m+ vault dagger then a heroic dagger in the vault a bit later
I traded a heroic one to my other rogue raider at the start of the tier. Feels like I’m giving them Excalibur
but ive had sylv down for a couple months at this point
yes
so i get it right sin venthyr is the first few weeks the pick then swap to nightfae so i can skip kyrian/necro renown right?
and yes i saw the pins just wanna make sure
necro is also a nice start
its in the pins, but i like that you are back in bfa with your patch number
Well this phone man, can't even open pings, will check once I get home thanks mate! 👍
Hey, it may sound like a dumb question but i just wanna be sure about one thing : with the sepsis/shiv logic we're going from "slam shiv on cd" to "hold shiv for 0:30, 1:00, 1:30" no matter how many casts we may lose in a fight ?
no still slam shiv, just hold for some seconds to pair it at some point
With tomorrow's reset, shards will no longer work. Right?
they should still work in korthia/maw iirc.. but anywhere else disabled
nevermind.. check #wow-general
Since shiv is a 25 second cooldown, the theoretical hold is 5 seconds each, meaning you are only losing 1 cast every 3 minutes the fight goes on.
Lol no.
Yes, syncing with Vend/Sepsis is a gain as NF.
You would send on other covenants.
Found. Thanks
I wonder if the whole 0-30-60-90-120s thing may cause misplays for some people
Instead of send 1 & 2 on cd and sync 3rd with vend and 4th with sepsis. It basically looks like the same 12sec logic as it is now or am I forgetting something
Would Mark for Death be good in this case?
Ig you could make a WA to make shiv glow at the correct time
Only for venth @inner atlas
I remember reading Whispyr saying mfd for venth and DS for other covs
ok
I'm curious about Vendetta windows? Will energy regen be enough in single target to go down to 1min?
Yeah
Yes
easily, the problem will be to get flagellation cd down enough to line it up 😄
What's the theoretical max reduction you could get on Vendetta?
Down to 45 secs?
Nah
if you can snack benevolent faeries, yes
Well maybe on cleave

full send
Your bleeds in vendetta tick 2x rate so you regen a lot during that window
Typically more than we can spend
I guess it depends on how much haste one can stack as well
??
statwise
Oh the stats
its less haste now
Yeah
alot less
we're back to stacking mastery? or is that an error in the sim sheet?
Stacking, no
What sim sheet
We will likely want a little mastery, but nothing crazy
Cev did you see what I said earlier
I was wondering your thoughts on it
About shiv
Yeah that^
I feel like we wouldn’t ever come to a point where it’d be >12s unless I’m not thinking far enough into a timer
Kind of, but with 9.2 you want to force Shiv with every Vendetta *the same moment you press Vendetta" and every Sepsis, but Dusk makes it more rng where sometimes you might have moments where the 12s rule might not apply. If you follow the 12s rule, you would sometimes end up using Shiv at the last 9s of Vend, but currently we want full value of the exsanguinated bleeds, including the overhang after Vendetta.
The sim previously also prioritized getting as many Shiv casts as possible, whereas now we don't care about TTD as much.
If you use Shiv right before Vend or together with Vend, your Vendetta overhang would benefit from the Shiv as well.
If you follow the 12s rule, this does not work.
How so?
It also messes up the timers after the fact.
I see. Hmm
Also have to keep in mind other interactions during a fight that may alter your timings
Mechanics intermissions etc
Sure sure I simply meant in a vacuum, such as a sim or pure patchwerk no downtime ofc
Yeah definitely I agree.
Yoy press Vend and Shiv together.
Vend drops after 20s, but you just reapplied gar/rup.
After 5seconds you would Shiv again to make us of the last 5-10 seconds og overhang.
So technocally it's not 0-30-60-90-120
It's 0-25-60-90-120
Lmao

Basically you can’t juice the overhang on your second vendetta?
It's not too bad.
Press Shiv with Vendetta and Sepsis, and immediately after Vendetta again.
Press Shiv with Vendetta, hold for Sepsis.
Yeah
Correct, you'd hold for Sepsis
Yeah I gotcha
But this again is super duper minmaxy
so shiv is always paired with something. regardless
And not really worth the brain power if it causes you to mess up
Correct.
So something like if sepsis in >Xs don’t juice overhang kinda
The vendetta effect is snapshotting hate isn’t it?
Because the gain from the overhang is quite minimal honestly
And might mess up the second vendetta overhang
And sepsis sync
And if that happens, you're doomed
Wonder if there’s anything cool we can do with that, other than the soul bind haste proc
Correct
and its always CD -> shiv, correct?
Yeh, that's a safe bet.
Yeah. I think there will be much more skill expression with sin from the sound of everything
I’m happy about that
Definitely.
Do you know if it was found out how long holding a CD is appropriate. For example if you do not get full value of duskwalkers vendetta timing will be off
weed out the sub mains like whispyr
From syncing to playing with the overhang and dealing with multiple targets at the same time
We generally don't want to hold Vendetta ever unless it causes you to not get full value of it.
Multiple targets during Vendetta felt really bad
It really depends on the encounter.
So rotationally: Keep bleeds up, ambush when free proc (and out of combat after you refresh garrote), hold Shiv for after CD (Vendetta/Sepsis), ???, profit
But I'm assuming yoy just slam ST and use CT
Because ST gives full daturation already
And for example on Artificer intermission
yeah
I would have vendetta up and send on one of the big adds
That would be sick if you only needed to CT
Wait are we running CT for 9.2 single target? Bah, I don't have that in my notes
Yeah, technically you'd apply all bleeds outside of Vendetta or double garrote with Subterfuge
No
But that's about it yeh
Only 2+
Definitely not.
Cleave/aoe encounters are different of course
It's always been 2+ targets CT
But now it kinda leans a bit more on CT even with add waves and not consistent targets
I love it.
Me too
Maybe there Is necrosin confirmed
Keeping track of multiple bleeds is something I really enjoy
Oh thank god, okay good
Looking at the fights in 9.2, we'll still probably run it a fair bit in raid
There seem to be a few cleave/aoe portions of fights
Prototype is almost assuredly best as Necrolord - but the rest not so much.
Too bad that shits gonna be like 1 minute with lust

I hope lords of dread or w/e is like a full on cleave fight
2 main targets for the entire fight, ~6-8 minutes long
how does assa compare to outlaw in a sustained 4 target phase like pantheon?
Yes.. but 2tgt for a lot of time also, time to shine :)
You'd have to sim that, we don't have the answers for such niche questions.
@limber lion fight style patchwerk 4 bosses?
That wouldn’t be patchwerk then

should do the trick




Wdym 

Maintaining Garrote & Rupture on all 4 is going to be fun
Even if it's only for a short bit
Patchwork is not 5min single target.
Patchwork is simply a Fight Style where the amount of targets provided will not do anything.
If you're simming for 4 targets, you would sim for patchwork 4 targets, yes.
@steel ridge

told ya
Poor Patchwerk, started out as a raid boss in Vanilla, and has been a concept ever since
science biatch
But 4 target patchwork means that you have access to all 4 targets at all times
And I doubt that's the case for the Pantheon
Reported too smart no allowed
All raid-specific sims can be a bit misleading, so do take them with a grain of salt
Outlaw obviously only benefits from 4 targets if they're on top of each other.
Outlaw 
well they can be quite a bit apart if you stand in the middle of them
Outlaw is dead anyway Oxi stated it himself
Someday they won't be the butt of jokes



but my rudimentary 4 target patchwerk sim just now kinda gave me the impression both specs are fairly close, sadly i dont have necrolord assa for comparison
oxi the surgeon calling time of death on a spec
You can still sim Necrolord for Assa. Just sim Assa on Top Gear, slap on all the gear/soulbinds/gems/enchants/covenants that you want
and then just copy that profile over.
I did not say dead to be fair, I believe my wording was “outlaw sucks, it’s simming feral levels bad”

Bro it’s only C tier, hello?!
Don’t @ me bro
Breaking news: oxi confirms Feral is dead
More at 11
I stg you said “outlaw is dead” but you were joking. I think 
I plead the fifth
Too much green in here 
Cev and I are about to duel outside the saloon at sunrise
I don't even know my own country's amendments, damn sure don't know yours 
You promise?
im colorblind, cant tell the difference between red and green anyway
There’s other ways to duel?
But they’re the same country 
You never notice Christmas approaching suddenly?
I wouldn't know 
I though oxi lived in Europe? 
Nop


I wish 
NA lawyer 
Then I’d be closer to Cev and dadsen
How dare you tarnish the name of oxii-Illidan
Somebody live in Europe? 
Cev
It's fucking awful in here
Great I'm racist, just with colors.
Don’t dox me they’ll see my parses and make fun of me 
Au natural triple nine? That’s a 99 on the Nine btw
Finnish? More like go finish your homework lil fella
Why do I need to see your parses for that?
I KNEW IT
dadsen already hates me 
I had you tagged and was about to hit you with the
@drifting cloud

Ryler’s a homie
Yeah he is 
Him and Cev helped me a lot with sylv 
Am I gonna cry playing assa hc week give it to me straight all Ivr done last 2 weeks is lost ark
We'll all be crying regardless of what spec we play.
Quake is my fren
He help me be horde and doesnt afraid of anything

The Prime Minister of Malaysia is here, be nice
How will work the 1st vault in 9.2?
15+ -> 252 ilv?
Yup, first vault this reset will be season 2 ilvl
I believe the first vault is capped at like +10 and can't get set items, right?
You mostly want to try to get a 20/21 done so you have a 15 for the first week of the season
That would be insane if you could get tier before the raid
So mostly we just do 1 key this upcoming week to get a higher key, which isn't awful
Correct
first week that matters for vault is what you do once heroic week begins
But the loot you get from dungeons is capped at +10
Wait so do a +20 after tomorrow?
So no need to do a +20 today?
correct
You can if you want
tomorrow begin enjoying a new zone and figure out how it works
then on the 1st is when you grind

Game won't be up until 6pm for me tomorrow, guess I'll play Witcher 3 and hit the pub
apparently there are cool puzzles if you research the right cyphers
Ima just watch the end cutscene for the raid before I actually beat it like I always do

is a solution solving no issue and it makes me very upset
The lore is a travesty on mankind but I can't help following it religiously.
when the real problem is having to go to oribos and talk to an npc to change covenant
You’re a cool puzzle

Real tired of Dreven making me stroke his ego every time I switch back
Oh wow we get a covenant hearthstone finally?
Ye
What a brilliant idea blizzard, glad no one’s suggested that since the launch of the expac
Absolutely groundbreaking stuff

Remember when Blizz said your Covenant choice wasn't a huge deal?
Haha good times
there is a conduit thing in ZM, so literally 0 need to go to sanctum
but now I have to still go back and forth between oribos
sad

Ooo, thought of a community question
Post 
Are we sure isnt this the ending week you need a 20/21 completed?
yes
Yes
if you are holding a 20 key next week it should be fine
It’ll be easier next week ye
Just bang out a 20 and be done with it
Helpful when more people have 20s
So you can pick and choose necrotic wake every time
well if you pull a 20 tomorrow you should get a 19 -> 15 in the S3 vault, no?

Choose the wrong week kekw
gotta start getting those 20s week 1 🙂
for some wakes in your vaults
That’s a good question 
I wonder if they’ll do what they did with the portal achievements
wdym
Sbs enjoyer seliathan I know will have a based answer
based on what 
You get new vault only from new dungeons
…
If you do torment dugneons you are capped at 252
Yeah
Yes
Now I can listen for my question and act like a stream contributor when they say my name

And the key should be like 5 lvl lower
I should do 10 dungeons this week in case they fuck something up and I get a tier piece by accident on reset
If timed


Same here buddy
Thought it was a myth
And I’m going to summit1g my monitor
Garbage time? That’s my time
vita got hers 2 weeks ago 
EoN was a myth too but got one last guild raid POG
That’s how it worked with corruption in 8.3 for me, I get 2 gushing wounds they announce vendor a week later. Then they nerf it the week after that

what kind of mouse buttons?
Just flash your brain bios, you’ll be fine
For some reason my shift-modifier doesn't work with the numpad-keybinds
Or just go mess around in some dungeons
Yeh that's the thing though
lots of mouse buttons or just fps buttons?
Do you have numlock enabled?
I don't really wanna play WoW currently, but I have to remod all of my buttons
so if I wanna know how to play next patch, I would need to play WoW to get used to it
12 side buttons, yes. Moving up from 7.
yikers, thats a lot
No, I don't even have numlock on my keyboard at all whatsoever.
I mean, the buttons work fine
and they do what they're told when I press them
except when I press shift down as well
I use Mutilate with mouse button 5 and trinket with shift + mouse button 5
gotta learn to play one handed so you can pet your dog while you play 
Yeah that’s odd
I had to get a mmo mouse like 2 years ago because I started developing pain in my left hand. I've moved all of my rotation binds to my mouse, but had to get a new one because the previous one was consistently faulty and stopped working multiple times per raid night.
Apparently it’s a blizzard thing Cev
I never got used to the MMO mouse, but evidently it's like the thing to do. Almost everyone I know has moved over to them

thanks oxi 
I'll figure something out
I haven't used Alt for anything else but mouseover bleeds
so maybe I can start using Alt instead
So do you do your entire rotation with the mice buttons and modifiers?
I only use Logitech peripherals, and to my knowledge they only have a single MMO mouse (which isn't nearly as comfortable as the 502 Hero is for me)
I just had the spammable buttons on the mouse pretty much. Mutilate, Garrote, FoK etc.
Could do with like 4 side buttons as well, but those are not really a thing hah
same, just front and back for fps
kicks/stuns + defensives and shadowstep on mousewheel
maybe use autohotkey to remap stuff?
what do you need the other 6 buttons for if your whole rotation is already there?
to spam mokoko emotes in LA?
I don't, but there is no other 7 button mouse in the market.
The Razer mice just bug out for me.
I would use a 7 button if there were any, but there aren't.
oh thats a thing I guess
I don’t think I’d be able to stand having my main abilities on my mouse buttons
I remapped my mouse just now and I'm just completely not using like 6 of the buttons
lol

Yeh, it's different for me. I like to move with the left hand and use abilities on the right hand, or vice versa.
I wouldn't remap keys on League on my mouse
or LA
Because you move with the mouse
RuneScape

I just like my GCDs being on my keyboard because they’re much more mindless I guess and I’m right handed
So it’s easier for me to kick/sprint/cloak/evasion/feint well with my mouse
Im pretty bad with using modifiers with my left hand though

I just need to work my pinky out or something idk
Im weird and have no shift/ctrl modifiers, i rely purely on alt
Doesn’t make you weird
play what’s comfortable for you
Alt sounds like it’d be easier for me too tbh using thumb instead of pinky sounds better
Will have to try 

Ngl
I did consider buying a foot pedal at some point
to which I would bind my Mutilate on
just to ease with the strain
LMFAO
It’s legitimately not a bad idea tho
Did you see the video where zera did a flawless twelve as outlaw with a steering wheel set up?
mouse wheel was the single biggest bind i ever learned in like legion. so good for main abilities
I’ve thought about getting a foot pedal for like, my push to talk bind
Idk what else I’d use one for tbh
PTT is mb5 
I have a question, next tier with fae 4pc how good is pairing it with pi? Priest guildie asked if itll be decent.
Ergo keyboard could be a good option too
like since we are holding sepsis for the 2m mark anyway
Fae is good pi target
m4 ptt gang
But we don’t do this
We’re not
You line sepsis with vendetta on pull and @ 3min
aah but that isnt in sync with pi 😦
Indeed

is it only 2m syncs of that doesnt lose cats?
Yeh
You very rarely ever would hold or sync externals anyway
You just slam BE and KA on cooldown
PI was kinda fine because they lined up naturally with Vend anyways
But normally you just slam all externals on cooldown, sync or not
also you gave a timeline that assumes 1m vendetta right. How much leyway is there on that, assume a heavy downtime fight could u still hit the lineups or would u lose too much cdr due to not spending energy.
People can get it to about 55 with perfect conditions
and say our timeline is desynced do we hold ven or sepsis for our 3m synce and how long or is it just doomed
read the book

ye I read that but that assumes our vendetta cd keeps up right
downtime won't be as major as people think it will be
cause you can just spam fok while running out for mechanics for example
PK 
We fok around during fight downtime, got it
He means if you’re running out of giant circle and can’t face boss, why not toss an fok for an extra bit of dam?
No, only use fok if you are about to cap energy. Otherwise let it pool and use it when you get back in range
Use knife toss if fok is out of range and you are about to cap energy
Sure, that too
Uh an example I’d use for him here is the eye on mythic
We swapped. For max uptime, I couldn’t back pedal my way out, or I’d take an extra stack.
On a few pulls I’d pop an fok while leaving so I’d not overcap as hard
Sure, that makes sense cause you would cap energy while away.
Or if I’m borked on a mistdancer pull in SD, I’d fok if I couldn’t hit the dude during a thrust.
Little things like that mitigate “downtime”, PK was another example of it.
But they are fewer and further in between than people think
We have a lot of movement stuff to help us go from point A to B quicker
Still happens sometimes, like soaking circle on m fatescribe
Exactly 
Dawn of the final hour

i heard good things about early prog
