I'm fucking confused

hollow river
#

2M iterations isn't enough anymore Cev

limber lion
#

rip

restive falcon
#

opener with 4piece now is garrote/mutilite/rupture then burst?

#

i dont remember opener from last time subterfuge was a thing

slow marsh
#

gar snd ambush

thorn fjord
limber lion
restive falcon
#

i dont have ambush bound lmao

#

ig i replace it over multiple now

limber lion
#

you do realize you still need to mutilate

restive falcon
#

i was looking at the faq and it doesnt have opener unless im blind

thorn fjord
#

@limber lion thats todays

limber lion
#

You're literally simming Patchwork with WFT on one

#

And Dungeon Slice without WFT on one

thorn fjord
#

wait

limber lion
#

literally 2 different fight encounters entirely

thorn fjord
#

wtf

limber lion
#

5 min patchwork 1 target

#

6 min dungeon slice

#

"looks the same"

thorn fjord
#

Ugh

#

i thought they were both patch

restive falcon
#

wut is the opener now, is it garrote snd ambush rupture?

#

then venda/flag

limber lion
#

Depends on the covenant

restive falcon
#

well for venth rn

limber lion
#

The opener stays the same

#

Muti - SnD - Muti - Gar - Flag - Rup - Vend - Shiv

#

But yeh, you should probably just play Necro with 4p

#

with 2222221 talents

restive falcon
#

when we wanna vanish in that window?

limber lion
#

and open SBS - Slice - Gar

limber lion
restive falcon
#

alright

limber lion
#

just play Necro on every boss

#

with Duskwalkers

#

2222221 talents

#

Change to Fae next week

#

Using CT on cleave/aoe

restive falcon
#

hmmm necrolord alright

viscid spear
#

65 rep from Revered Sadbubbles

#

I know it's not important until next week, but I ran out of shit to do today for rep so I go to bed defeated

somber hill
#

for a high movement fight, when we are night fae i assume its better to swap to a dif soulbind other than dreamweaver, e.g. halondrus where we have to get out of flowers

balmy condor
#

no

#

it's not

somber hill
#

also question

#

Inside the vendetta window whats the refresh protocol w our bleeds, tick out? or refresh at like 1-2s? also is it worth to double garrote a single target in the vanish window?

balmy condor
#

pandemic is halved, but it's the same rules, once vendetta drops and you're dealing with the overhang dots, you let those drop

#

it is not worth to double garrote

#

double garrote has only been a thing once, and that was because of shrouded suffocation

somber hill
#

makes sense thank u

slow marsh
#

Dang no 4p tonight =\ hopefully tomorrow on Handy or rygelondeeznuts

sinful citrus
#

picked up my 4pc tonight and man does it feel fast lol

#

the opener is the same for standard necro lord just with a garrote instead of sbs right?

slow marsh
#

You can sbs first as long as you get gar in the subt window

sinful citrus
#

Ok cool

novel arrow
#

Anyone planning to leave Unity on belt?

#

It seems to be a fine option or are people wanting to move it? It doesn't seem to clash with anything there

humble ginkgo
#

if I happened to play venthyr sin on LOD do I play obedience or zoldyck or doomblade

#

@slow marsh

limber lion
#

Zold with 2p+

slow marsh
#

Zold still

#

Ye

humble ginkgo
#

ok

limber lion
#

It's also only 262 ilvl so meh

slow marsh
#

But also obedience could be good for the awk 3min lust

novel arrow
#

@limber lion is the original unity only 262?

slow marsh
#

265

novel arrow
#

oh

#

So you remake it no matter what

slow marsh
#

So a heroic jailer belt would replace it

novel arrow
#

But you can jsut make it 291 and be done

slow marsh
#

If you make 291 then like Cev said you'd want to move to wrist

novel arrow
#

Wrist stats are just so shit

#

lol

slow marsh
#

Ye

#

There's a few options within margin so I wouldn't sweat it just yet

split grail
#

dumb question becasue I'm dumb: Should I use FoK as a combo builder on Dreadlords? Or is it not enough targets to bother?

gusty mirage
#

do you have 4 or more targets when you're using FoK?

#

if not, no you mutilate still

#

rule for fok: 3 to apply poisons, 4+ as a builder

split grail
#

what about during swarm phase, they take extra aoe damage

gusty mirage
#

well because it's consistent 2T cleave you'd play crimson tempest over poison bomb

#

so you'd mutilate into that

#

ig

#

I'd ask whispyr or cev for a more definitive answer, but fok's damage sucks to begin with tbh

slow marsh
#

It's a no

#

Fok doesn't do enough damage even with the amp

#

With 100% damage amp you would treat the damage as 4t? (Unless I can't math) and you don't spam CT until 8 and even then it's marginal so you just keep doing normal 2/3t stuff the whole fight

gusty mirage
#

welcome to the church of kevin

#

sim vigor vs ds though bro

#

wyd

slow marsh
#

He did

gusty mirage
#

somethings sus

#

DS is goated

#

where's my boy Agreon

#

@oak sky

clever kindle
#

I did initially ye, rerunning now with my venthyr soulbinds again but the lad kevin seems to be winning out

gusty mirage
#

kevin Prayge

#

kevin got me my first 100 parse ever

slow marsh
#

I think it's pb instead of CT that's making DS lower

gusty mirage
#

believe in kevin, kevin is love kevin is life

clever kindle
#

all this swapping in between fights has my head spinning HyperSpin

slow marsh
#

I'm a Kevin believer but not until double leggo

gusty mirage
#

just don't swap thinkaboutit

clever kindle
#

comes out the same with DS/vigor/mfd

slow marsh
#

Well play maim mangle then ig @clever kindle

#

For ST

#

If you're staying Necro for st anyways

peak bobcat
#

Heirmir feels so bad

oak sky
#

dude

#

sub sucks SOOOOOOOOOOO hard on lords

#

i like actively hate myself while playing it

peak bobcat
#

The necro sin is the move

oak sky
#

of course

#

it was just normal

#

and i wanted to work on my sub

peak bobcat
#

Kyrian sub is growing on me

#

and I hate it

zinc frost
#

Hard not to enjoy it when it pumps so hard in ST

slow marsh
#

Cap

peak bobcat
#

The damage is whatever, having unlimited dance feels nice

slow marsh
#

The lusting at 3mins tilts me so hard

peak bobcat
slow marsh
#

I might run venth obed for our heroic lord's tomorrow to see if it makes a difference

peak bobcat
#

I was tempted to try it, just got our first kill of it today so I figured I wouldn't experiment.

slow marsh
#

Ye we killed it yesterday and will go again tomorrow so I'm gonna do it

peak bobcat
#

I want to try again with marileth

oak sky
#

i think marileth is prob worse on consistent aoe

#

at least before deathspike

slow marsh
#

Ye you only get the one add reset every now and then

#

After dspike Kevin is actually real nice

peak bobcat
#

one more week

oak sky
#

kevin is super good on like dausegne and rygelon though

slow marsh
#

Both our hunters and I believe our boomies got 4p tonight so I'm hoping to just get carried this week if I don't get mine tomorrow

peak bobcat
#

I got 3p today and am going into normal tomorrow

#

need the blessed RNG after 2 shit vaults

warm drift
#

How do you position at rygelon? Just left or right to boss to snipe sbs? Got parried so often

slow marsh
#

Just spin around and throw spikes if you need to

peak bobcat
#

Curious to see how Assa performs with 4P

slow marsh
#

I want to stick with my guns about sin being more popular after 4p but uhhhh

#

Sub kinda broken

ebon notch
#

Yeah I'm in the same boat

#

I've been bitching for a while now about wanting to play assa but sub being too strong

slow marsh
#

I'm sure once the big Bois get 4p and show what sin can do it might get more attention but like....right now it's no contest

#

I just gave in a few days ago to sub because I finally hit the 1k sim difference and I just can't deny that

oak sky
#

sin gains the more borrowed power comes up

#

in this patch specifically

slow marsh
#

I think sin will be one of those things where it doesn't get any attention in rwf so the mainstream players don't pay mind to it but in a couple weeks it's gonna seemingly come out of nowhere

oak sky
#

ye

#

i mean necro sin is already close or better on a couple fights

#

just not really worth going on some of those for the rwf guys

slow marsh
#

Ye I blasted in heroic pantheon earlier and barely missed 15k for r1

#

And I felt like I played kinda sloppy

fleet anchor
#

It's really hard to justify not playing Sub on most fights atm though when it just pumps (with me only having 2pc)

slow marsh
#

Ye that's the same boat I'm in

fleet anchor
#

Played Assassination on Lords tonight though

#

Because Sub is super trash on that fight

slow marsh
#

Yeah I played sub in normal Lords and wished I was able to swap before pull

#

Feels real bad

#

Can't wait to see that one on mythic tbh

fleet anchor
#

Yeah looking forward to an 18 minute fight 🤣

oak sky
#

sub feels so bad on lords

fleet anchor
#

I'm sure I'd like that fight more if I was playing a spec that could actually benefit from the AoE damage amp...

oak sky
#

try another class

fleet anchor
#

Assassination feels fine on the fight but really can't get much out of it

oak sky
#

deathspike stocks

fleet anchor
#

I'm not totally sure if Deathspike counts as AoE since it's just chain targets but I need to check logs

slow marsh
#

Dspike doesn't count as aoe though or I would be very surprised if it did

#

But regardless it's a best case scenario for assassination so you play it anyways even if you can't capitalize on the cheese mechanic

fleet anchor
#

I think I might die of old age before I can click through WCL search result pages and find someone using Deathspike though

#

Oh hey I found one 😄

slow marsh
#

Spill the beans

#

I mean people were playing dusk week 1 it's not terribly surprising to see a dspike log to me

fleet anchor
#

nopes

#

Hmm

#

I actually think CT ticks might gain during that time period. Figured only the direct damage would but it seems like it might be getting boosted

#

Doesn't really change much though

#

I don't think the DD portion does enough damage to change the value vs. Envenom

slow marsh
#

Make sure you have shiv for it I guess

#

I did feel like CT dam was higher than it should've been so that makes sense

oak sky
#

shiv is like the only thing that matters for sure

fleet anchor
#

We already keep CT up full-time in 2T anyway

slow marsh
#

Ye

fleet anchor
#

But the DD part wouldn't really change since there's no level of targets where CT spam itself is worth it

#

So 4T effective damage changes little

#

But good to know I guess

#

I figured we gained approx. nothing from the amp lol

slow marsh
#

Well now we know we gain a little bit of something

#

Now to ponder the degen NS CT tech for it

fleet anchor
#

Must be nice for DHs where like.. essentially all their damage is doubled lol

slow marsh
#

Yeah they blast. Eyebeam deathsweep tempest/rush

#

Immo

#

But naturally it's a venthyr Boomie fight. Easy 41k dps during that lust

#

Also mm hunters with wild spirits leggo

#

Dang now I want to try this stupid build for lords but I don't want to do it for heroic

oak sky
#

im kinda a doubter

#

it would be so frontloaded into that initial cast

#

like thats where all your ns value would come from ye

slow marsh
#

Well yeah but if your strat is to burn during swarm I'm just thinking of something that would fit into that

oak sky
#

idk we just dont have any real aoe nukes

#

like is double damage ns ct worth to lose subterfuge gar?

#

not sure

slow marsh
#

Deathly shadows + NS + CT + shiv w 2p?

oak sky
#

its possible ig just dont know

slow marsh
#

Yeah I'm just wondering if there's some degen tech there like there was for sludge fist

#

Albeit sludge was much more straightforward and not limited to aoe

#

I'm actually kinda thinking about trying it tomorrow

oak sky
#

its possible for sure

#

but does the ct dot get the double damage?

#

if it does it definitely might work

slow marsh
#

According to Koji yes that's what led me down this path

#

Also the fact that a 3min lust is cringe so what's the point anyways

oak sky
#

im a doubter on deathly

#

unless you mean prepull

slow marsh
#

I mean in a 10min 2t fight NS MA is only 100 behind obed and it's not even optimized and not including the damage amp

oak sky
#

then im not

slow marsh
#

I was just thinking deathly cuz the amp is 15s and it gives 5cp so you can shiv vanish CT for most of swarm

oak sky
#

hm

slow marsh
#

It's just gonna be one of those things that has to be tested cuz you can't really sim it

#

The closest I can get is 2t 10mins just for the fight layout itself and both MA and deathly are a lot closer than I expected

#

And unoptimized like I said (sim mutis out of NS vanish instead of building then vanish CT)

inner granite
#

What cov is the best all around option for sin?

slow marsh
#

It's a toss up between venth and Necro. Venth is probably best all around but Necro is super good where sin is good (pantheon, Lord's, dasausage kinda)

#

Then it changes to NF after 4p and double leggo

hollow river
slow marsh
#

Ye it should be possible but it'd take a lot of specific adjustments

hollow river
#

Might not be the most simple thing ever

#

Yeah

slow marsh
#

I'm thinking I'm just gonna wing it tomorrow for heroic

hollow river
#

I should’ve ran cache for lords tonight

#

I just got it so was hesitant to try using it lol

slow marsh
#

I got heroic cache week 1 and it's grown on me a lot

hollow river
#

Just seems weird having to track it’s rotations

#

Does it scales with any secondaries?

#

I got one use during lust on pantheon and it did 3%

slow marsh
#

Crit and haste pretty sure

hollow river
#

I just have to put it on its own keybind so I don’t fuck it up

#

I usually just macro on use and pop when I see it’s off CD

#makeassagreatagain

#

Sub is boring in keys

bleak sky
#

You can just play sin in keys

#

How bout that

lunar otter
#

Ye i will n do need tier tho

jovial spear
#

Tier piece or 278 Dagger.... which one do I choose?

lavish hazel
#

278 dagger in my opinion

#

you can loot hm tier set

solid venture
lunar otter
wild beacon
#

I'm loving cache actually, the axe does good dam. Behaves weirdly though, seems to change around a bit on pull

alpine radish
#

I got absolute dogshit this week 😂

#

Crit mastery chest it is

balmy condor
thin imp
#

278 PF dagger or Lihuvim HC hands giving 2pc? (around 218 dps difference favoured by 2pc)

novel arrow
#

@balmy condor My King, do we Fok during Swarms on dreadlords. And spam Crimson as finisher?

normal mist
#

0/4 set unite!

#

Another week another pvp piece!

warm olive
#

Do tier items created with the creation catalyst have the same stats as the token tier items? I thought they keep ilvl and stats and just add tier bonus on them. But seems like it is just the ilvl?

solid venture

Yes, thats what I know, but what about the stats?

#

this good ?

untold basin
#

according to wowhead it's one of the bis trinkets

strange python
#

i might pick it cause im sick of titanic ocular glan

#

but this NW 278 crit vers ring makes me think

umbral tulip
#

Take the ring dude

#

U will replace the trinket soon

#

Oh its assa

#

Maybe dont then xD

strange python
#

fair enough, i can get a drop in the raid

#

but the ring is mythic ilvl

subtle tundra
#

Nah

#

It is crit vers so it's bad for assa

#

And you will only need 1 ring

#

Since you get Lego ring

bleak sky
#

not a vers enjoyer varas?

subtle tundra
#

Tier sets have shit stats so you will need everything else crit haste

#

Or close to everything

thin trout
#

like we have a druid

#

that got anduin helm normal week 1

#

anduin helm normal week 2

#

anduin helm heroic week 2

#

and now he got mythic helm from his vault

#

kek

umbral tulip
#

Is it correct that crimson tempest is worth maintaining on st but only outside of shiv and vendetta?

thin trout
#

yes

umbral tulip
#

nice thanks

fading mason
#

What cov are we playing when we have 4set but not double legendary

warm drift
#

necro

subtle tundra
hollow river
#

Do we CT inside of shiv now with 2P?

subtle tundra
#

i cant tell you, i dont have 2p 🙂

#

lets see if im gonna be the last person in my guild to get 2p

spice spire
#

Varas PepeHands

warm drift
#

Im in the 1p club

hollow river
#

Me and the other rogue in guild have acquired 3p, every piece at the same time and same slot

#

Kinda funny

spice spire
subtle tundra
#

the only rogue alt in the guild has 2p and didnt even do full clears 🙂

spice spire
#

My gloves are lfr if it makes you feel any better

subtle tundra
#

🙂

#

its fine

hollow river
#

Lfr gloves?

#

From@vault or?

spice spire
#

Good slots this week but missed first few bosses and got an LFR slot, tier starege

#

Yep vault

hollow river
#

Ouch

subtle tundra
#

cursed

spice spire
#

Took a 239 from my vault with full 278s in m+ row

umbral tulip
#

a few days ago

spice spire
#

But at least I got it right? feelscryman

hollow river
#

So just curious

late birch
#

he probably assumed thats with PB though

#

did you ask with CT

umbral tulip
#

no I didnt

#

so maybe but probably not

subtle tundra
#

man and i want to play 4p in m+ :///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#

cant have fun

hollow river
#

I mean I’d have to be talented into ct to use it

spice spire
#

I’m going to say no, assuming you’re talking about ST only.
Anything more than one target you CT to maintain dot always

#

Even in shiv windows

hollow river
#

Ye

umbral tulip
#

dont think the 4p is that interesting for m+

#

its mainly the 2p thats nice

subtle tundra
hollow river
#

The prio dam from 4p is going to be good

spice spire
#

4p is pretty big. It lets use the prio dam niche infinitely better

subtle tundra
#

double vendetta in packs

#

pogger

#

🤤

late birch
#

Vaults must've been disappointing this week since I've only seen about 2 screenshots in here so far

hollow river
#

Where you been lol

subtle tundra
#

i mean, i got 278 dagger, which is nice

hollow river
#

I’ve seen like 20

subtle tundra
#

but i dont have tiers so its not nice

umbral tulip
#

double vendetta?

late birch
#

hol up

subtle tundra
late birch
#

definitely missed it then

subtle tundra
#

duskwalker + urh buff go brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

umbral tulip
#

ah

hollow river
#

All of yesterday and last night

spice spire
#

Phial + tier

late birch
#

Damn

#

what a vault

hollow river
#

Phial or tier

spice spire
#

I took LFR tier, you were not gonna see that screenshot kekg

spice spire
#

Oh it’s long gone homie

hollow river
#

I think every rogue ever always comes in to post vaults

#

Because I see so many phials and daggers every tier kekw

hollow river
thin trout
#

litterly cant use anytihng ecept hte haste mastery boots which are a 30 dps increas

spice spire
#

Helm for catalyst?

thin trout
#

oh still have 0 piece

#

i mean thats an option i guess

#

4 weeks of no anduin helm

#

neh

#

with boots atleast i can trade stuff

hollow river
#

You could always take tokens to socket any bis gear you get

#

Idk

rotund oak
#

Gonna sim it but isnt it supposed necro to be stronger with 2p than venthyr?

pure moth
#

the difference is 1

rotund oak
#

is that fuu's?

#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
pure moth
#

whispyr's

rotund oak
#

oh kk thx

pure moth
#

and sry link was over number but it was 12314 for necro 2pc hah

rotund oak
#

on it already no worries

#

they are equal

#

but necro enables some funnel/cleave

#

necro more optimal

pure moth
#

yeah

rotund oak
vestal wren
#

i rly like the necro play style

its april 12th right

a tear rolled out of my eye reading that

I earned this. 25 mythic sylv kills to get dag

no mythic dag at all 🙂

that's ridiculous tho, 25 kills

#

ppl in my guild getting 278 tier from vault all around and i just wanted a 252

#

fucking unfair

spice spire
#

Buddy, 239 tier is where it’s at

#

Trust

lean fossil
#

ill take any tier i can get!

strange python
#

Our ret pal got 278 tier helm and legs. Shits cooked

#

I just wait double leggo now so I can stop playing sub

#

Sub 4 set heinous

lean fossil
#

i dont discriminate based on ilvl lol

spice spire
alpine latch
#

We have still only killed 2 tier bosses, Halo and Lihuvim on normal

#

Once we get P2 and P2 intermission down, Anduin and Rygelon will die

zinc frost
#

The DH and warlock in my guild got 5 tier pieces before I got one feelsbadman

wide ridge
spice spire
#

Until we get the Andy skip

wide ridge
#

and we'll do them every week

spice spire
#

Yeah that’s what we’re doing too

#

Scuffed last week by not killing skolex + artificer first

wide ridge
#

ah I see

#

im assuming anduin skip will only take you to anduin right

#

like, cannot skip to lihuvim or halond

spice spire
#

I think so but not 100%

alpine latch
#

Yeah, my alt has the first 5

spice spire
#

So warrior still a lockout slave for a bit

alpine latch
#

on normal

wide ridge
#

i mean

alpine latch
#

We're still a bit out on Anduin. Probably 15-20 more pulls I think

spice spire
#

monkaGIGA my future probably

sterile chasm
#

Imagine we play with 4 set I should use shiv before stepsis or after?

wide ridge
#

only thing that bothers me is that my current guild setup has 1 rogue(me) an arms warr and a brewmaster monk, so we're kinda softlocked on luck cause like mage alone we have 3 and like 3 druids, they can share tier so much easily while we rely on almost pure luck

alpine latch
spice spire
alpine latch
#

With hero on P1 intermission we're hitting Anduin to like 53%. Damage wise, we're there ... We just need to get P2 adds under control

spice spire
#

Less needed when you have it lined with vend; however, it’s still best practice to sepsis > shiv to get the boom during the amp

wide ridge

shackle/paladin fear

spice spire
#

And blind one and you’re chuckling

alpine latch
wide ridge
#

zz

#

that sucks

sterile chasm
spice spire
#

It’s like 6>6>5

spice spire
#

And it’s amped by shiv, so you lose a bit of damage

sterile chasm
#

Stepsis is affected by 4 set?

spice spire
#

Again, during vend, it’s sped up so less necessary, but it’s good practice to always sepsis > shiv

#

4 set is only during vendetta

sterile chasm
#

I know

strange python
spice spire
#

You didn’t specify “during vendetta” and you don’t line your vendettas up with sepsis unless you can time the fight out to specifically not miss a cast

#

Vend+sepsis+shiv (opener)
Shiv (around 0:30)
Vend+shiv (1:00)
Sepsis+shiv (1:30)
Vend+shiv (2:00)
Shiv (2:30)
Vend+sepsis+shiv (3:00, repeating the cycle)

You still want to follow the sync logic of “if you won’t lose a cast”, which may result in some simulations holding either sepsis or vendetta. This 30 second shiv cycle is still consistent with that, for example:

Vend+sepsis+shiv (opener)
Shiv (0:30)
Vend + shiv (1:00)
Shiv (1:30, holding sepsis 30 seconds for vend)
Vend+sepsis+shiv (2:00, using the sepsis here)
Shiv (2:30)
Vend+shiv (3:00)
Shiv (3:30, again holding sepsis)
Vend+sepsis+shiv (4:00, with the fight ending before 4:30)

The second example requires a fight of between 4 and 4:30, but the logic can be extended to sync the final sepsis with the final vendetta of the fight in general. Keep this in mind depending on your kill times next patch

#

Is the entire logic

I read it

spice spire

So I’m confused

#

Why you’re confused

When I press vend then sepsis then shiv we will lose 1gcd without buff on sepsis Am I wrong?

That .8 seconds is worth more to get it on CD > damage. That’s how little of a difference in damage it is

Pretty much the same stats as me

1-2% here and there

@limber lion is first sigil bis regardless if u lust on pull or not?

limber lion

But it obviously depends on the encounter as well

Some encounters benefit more from it than others

marble hemlock

I just mutilate all the time still

#

Call me lazy

#

But those 500 damage over 6min aint gonna make a difference Kekw

flipping between a 5-6 minute pull with sigil should sim it appropriately for 1 or 2 uses

Hmm or close

limber lion
# clever kindle what makes ambush good now again

We haven't looked into Ambush since 9.0.5 because it was bad. But I found an overall 0.8% gain from using Ambush instead of Mutilate a few months ago, and the few reasons are because of:

  1. CTTC was introduced so we need less CP to get Slice running permanently
  2. We don't play Doomblade, which favored more mutilate casts
  3. Venthyr still presses Mutilate because it favors combo points more than the other covenants, but other covenants don't value cp as much so the Ambush makes more sense.
clever kindle
#

Gotcha

#

what about master poisoner Sinscheme

limber lion
#

If it wins on 5 minutes, it'll likely win on longer fights as well.

clever kindle
#

Oh ok, probably was just a hiccup in my sim then, but the value increased a good bit between 5-6 minute, like a 40 dps difference(upgrade) over my current trinkets

#

now the question is do I sell out and go sub for 400 dps hmmmmmmmmm

limber lion
#

Yes the value increases because if you sim 6 minutes it won't sim as many under-5min sims anymore

#

So you'll get 2 uses like 90% of the time

Hello @limber lion are you raiding as assa?

U’re a genius… I think my dmg is falling so bad if I play sin

Dunno whats happening and I changed to sub

Btw I still not have 2 tier :’(

clever kindle
#

the area between entering this raid and getting 4 piece is pretty fucking confusing so youre probably doing fine

limber lion

Just needs a bit of practice and you're gucci

clever kindle

You really just need tier bonuses and at that point it seems like you can run a pretty wide array of talents and covenant choices without it changing too much

before we get 4 set/double leggo

Guys with double lego + 4set piece, is it ok to play venthyr still?

#

or is necro/fae better

spice spire
#

Fae better - but you can see exact numbers in pins Sinscheme

restive falcon
#

i simmed myself and cache265 is better than 265sigil with my 252 phial but the spreadsheet says to use sigil over cache, do i ignore sim and use spreadsheet or naw

ebon notch
#

can anyone link the NF opener for 4pc single leggo?

#

i swear it was in the pins but i cant find it

grim tangle
#

use your sim

#

sigil is better when we get burstier with double leggo and 4 piece

restive falcon
#

ahhh so just with 4piece use cache still but next week tuesday when i get double leggo and go fae i swap to sigil?

grim tangle
#

just sim it always

#

sigil probably scales better with better gear

#

so it might still not be better until higher ilvl

#

the spreadsheet assumes BIS gear

drowsy parcel
restive falcon
#

i can resim but i believe it was a dps loss

#

maybe now that i got 4piece running sigil it is better

hollow river
#

And if sigil sims better after that only use it on 5:30-6+ minute fights maybe

restive falcon
#

where is that under, way at bottom?

hollow river
#

Your regular sim might not be getting a second cast if I had to guess

grim tangle
#

are you playing necro?

#

sigil probably a lot wrse for necro too compared to NF

restive falcon
#

im still playing venth atm with 4piece

grim tangle
#

spreadsheet also assume NF, so just listen to your sim

restive falcon
#

but im resimming to 6minutes now

hollow river
#

I don’t think it has much to do with covenant

#

It’s 1k raw vers

#

If 5min sim isn’t getting a second use that’s pretty big difference

grim tangle
#

1k in burst window

restive falcon
#

this is in 6min fight

grim tangle
#

if your covenant is less bursty 1k vers is less useful

hollow river
#

Beats cache on 6min lul

#

Oh it was beating cache on 5min anyway

grim tangle
#

I wish I had 4 set

balmy condor
restive falcon
#

i mean i could running sigil/cache till i get a 272/278 phial

hollow river
balmy condor
#

There’s a 20% variance

#

So 5 min sim is 4-6

#

6 min is 4:48-7:12

restive falcon
#

so i should jsut run sigil/phial based off the sim?

balmy condor
#

Yeh

restive falcon
#

i was running that before i looted cache yesterday

#

but i swapped to cache/phial and cache/sigil

#

then i got 4piece later last night and didnt really look into sims till now

lean coral

if im gonna do a mists key as fae sin to get the cov conduit best bind is korayn right

only other way to get the conduit is pantheon afaik

lean coral
#

or getting 3k io/glad

hollow escarp
#

I did a mists as nf with dashing, it was fine peepoHappyMaldDent

lean coral

i havent done a sin key since like season 1

hollow escarp
#

ohh

lean coral
#

the fae conduit is the only one i dont have a 265

#

got necro from pantheon

hollow escarp
#

if you're more comfortable with other specs, you can run night fae on those as well

#

it's just for one key

lean coral
#

oh nah i like sin alot

#

its just ive been playing sub in keys

restive falcon
#

is the spreadsheet out of date? it says to run duskwalker ring/unity legs but the last sim pinned was unity on bracers

lean coral
#

oh right was meaning to ask if there was a reason for unity on bracers over belt

restive falcon
#

belt is capped at like 262ilvl i tihnk

#

unity at revered is 291

lean coral
#

no i know but cant i get a 291 belt

#

and put unity on there

hollow escarp
#

you can

spice spire

Yes

But jailer drops a 285 belt iirc

hollow escarp

bracers are also good for multispeccing

Hmm, bit lower than expected, but oh well. Guess I'll put my unity somewhere else.

oak sky

duskwalkers goes on ring, unity should be wrists or probably head if you don't have tier taking up that slot

arctic hare

Going sub this tier, just figured it'd be easier to ask in here what the stats were so I could make my decision easier.

oak sky
#

oh lmao

arctic hare
#

Yeah lol

#

its probably going to end up on belt/wrists

oak sky
#

yeah not sure where unity is going for sub, probably also a tier slot long term and wrists or belt before then yeah

arctic hare
#

for non tier slots faq states that its belt, wrist, or ring.

#

and I already have 2-set, somehow.

#

So just trying to weigh my options overall, especially if I end up wanting to switch specs whenever needed.

oak sky
#

yeah wrists is probably safest

arctic hare
#

Wrists give 53 per, belt gives 71 per.

oak sky
#

i think the reason why wrists are recommended for sin is because theres a bunch of good raid belts for us

#

not sure if the same is true for sub

arctic hare
#

no clue lol

#

They aren't terrible, no vers on any of them unfortunately though.

All slots are close in output.
The best non tier slots across all specs are Belt or Wrists.
The best possible slot is likely Hands, Legs or Head.
