Doesn't with 2p

#

Duskwalker's with 4p

cedar edge
#

4p?

limber lion
#

Duskwalkers + Unity with 4p

#

Everywhere

cedar edge
#

We talking pvp right?

vale oasis
#

So ive been reading alot on assass and Im not sure if Ambush is worth using ? some people says it is and some don't. Kinda confused atm

limber lion
strange python
limber lion
#

Does this look like #pvp to you

cedar edge
#

oh sry

strange python
#

Cev be nice :(

bleak sky
#

pvp

subtle tundra
#

this is pve circlejerk, excuse the mongrels

bleak sky
#

The mongrels = pvp brainlet @gusty mirage

glass tulip
#

@gusty mirage I have a question about a ZJ guild

glass tulip
#

know anything about go next?

gusty mirage
#

I do not

strange python
#

Are y'all just spamming rupture and CT during vend?

#

Feels like keeping both up means 0 envenoms

limber lion
#

That's completely fine

#

Just make sure to garrote/rupture at pandemic

#

and with 4p the pandemic is half that of normal pandemic

strange python
#

My brain fries trying to garrote+rupture+ct

trail mica
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
strange python
#

Without CT it's easy

#

Also running into SnD dropping on the opening vendetta with CT

limber lion
#

SnD > CT

#

CT is pretty low priority on single target

strange python
#

So are you not having huge CT uptime in vendetta?

limber lion
#

To some extent yes

#

but if one bleed were to drop, it would be CT

#

Gar/Rup give you energy back and do more damage on single target, so it's important to keep them up

#

and SnD is our best ability, so you have to keep that up

#

it changes slightly on AoE

strange python
#

I'm not positive how you would stop CT from falling during vendetta without letting snd go

limber lion
#

You let it drop

#

that's completely fine

trail mica
#

Is venthyr the play without 4p and with double legendary? (Raid)

limber lion
#

CT is a filler ability on single target

limber lion
#

With and without tier set

hollow river
#

Necro > NF as an overall cov with 4p?

limber lion
#

Ye

hollow river
#

That sounds so weird

limber lion
#

NF wins in single target, but honestly the blossom field is just awful with any movement

limber lion
strange python
#

Lots of adds this raid

limber lion
#

Necrolord already sims better in 4p than Night Fae

#

loll

hollow river
#

Because NF is a lot stronger in ST

limber lion
#

NF is only stronger with double legendary

#

But yeah it's like 1k stronger in comparison next week with double lego

hollow river
#

He said with double legendary

#

Ik Necro is good without

limber lion
#

Ye

#

But you didn't

#

But like I said

hollow river
#

Didn’t think I had to specify

limber lion
#

Necro is the best covenant with and without double legendary

#

The most versatile one

hollow river
#

But can’t you just run Korayn? For cleave

glass tulip
#

itll be interesting to have something different to do than swap venthyr to necro and back

hollow river
#

Ik obviously Necro is stronger in cleave

#

But I’m curious if Necro can do the same boss damage where it really counts

limber lion
#

Korayn is only good with add-waves

#

not cleave

hollow river
#

Yeah

limber lion
#

Doesn't do much on Pantheon for example

hollow river
#

I don’t mean like, pantheon

limber lion
#

yeah well that's cleave

strange python
#

There's not a lot of single target fights

#

Probably a good case for NF on rygelon tho

limber lion
#

Stuff like Artificer, Lihuvim, Rygelon are boss fights with add-waves

hollow river
#

Adds are still cleave, just not sustained cleave

limber lion
#

Closer to Hectic Add Wave than cleave

strange python
#

I haven't watched, but are quasars not just insta dying on mythic?

limber lion
#

Here's 2t 5min sim

strange python
#

It's a pretty single target fight on heroic

limber lion
#

Top Gear is Necrolord Marileth

#

with double lego

zinc frost
#

Resets for Kevin

hollow river
#

Yes ik Necro wins in sustained cleave

limber lion
#

Necro gains a shit ton from a second target

#

Necro is also better with add waves

#

because of SBS resets

strange python
#

What're the sbs rules for marileth? Just don't overcap while keeping buffs up?

limber lion
#

Necro wins in any encounter with adds

hollow river
#

Ye but with Kevin n whatnot

limber lion
#

Sustain or waves

hollow river
#

The boss Zamage

#

Is what I’m curious about

limber lion
hollow river
#

Priority damage

#

Boss damage

strange python
#

What's the sbs logic with 2lego marileth?

hollow river
#

Damage done to the creature that matters most

limber lion
#

why do you change the narrative

#

just say that from the start

hollow river
#

I said that earlier

limber lion
#

From overall covenant, to cleave, to addwaves to boss damage

hollow river
#

That I was curious about it

limber lion
#

Ah alright

#

maybe I missed it

hollow river
limber lion
#

But yeh, Necro wins pretty much always

hollow river
#

I don’t get what the problem is

brazen zodiac
#

necro hard to play if ur nameplates are dog tbh

limber lion
#

Deathspike providing a shit-ton of combo points from any extra targets

strange python
#

I'd expect NF to be ahead on rygelon because quasars are so specific

limber lion
#

just ramps up the damage overall and on prio

limber lion
#

because you get resets for days

strange python
#

Is it just getting insane Kevin uptime?

limber lion
#

and maintain 100% Kevin uptime

strange python
#

That makes sense

limber lion
#

That's one, but that's not the main thing

#

The main thing is sending an SBS on an add, getting 5 combo points from it

#

which you can then use on the boss

#

then you get the spike back

#

and send it to get 5 cp again

#

It's the cheapest generator we have

strange python
#

So. Heirmir single target, marileth everything else?

limber lion
#

and it giving you 5 CP for every cast is just nuts

limber lion
strange python
#

Aka pantheon vs ryg/arti

#

K

limber lion
#

Yeh

strange python
#

Time to run a pf/top for fracture

hollow river
#

We still just insta SBS all targets without SBS applied I assume?

#

Barring finishers ofc

steel ridge
#

Pantheon drops fractures

limber lion
#

Yah

hollow river
#

SBS gar snd?

#

On opener

limber lion
#

Yeh that's fine

#

On single you can do gar snd sbs

zinc frost
#

I’m keen to start yeeting out spikes in mythic + with deathspike

strange python
#

Man I hate DS in openers. Feels so trash to hit 4 CP getting the rupture up

hollow river
#

Oh I meant for single

#

But kk

limber lion
#

Yeh you only need 1cp to get it rolling on single

hollow river
#

And cleave is same old aoe opener I take it

limber lion
#

but it gets a bit spicy on multiple targets

hollow river
#

Yeah ik that’s been the going recommendation

limber lion
#

On 2T I would open gar sbs gar snd sbs

subtle tundra
#

on pantheon i garrote sbs garrote snd

limber lion
#

good man.

subtle tundra
#

mythic

limber lion
#

yes

#

very mythical

hollow river
#

Lol

soft merlin
#

with 4p and double lego, you still go necro on pantheon. right?

winter vapor
#

for any cleave necro wins

limber lion
brazen zodiac
#

but but night fae :(

soft merlin
limber lion
slow marsh
#

pretty much. fights ended up suiting necro really well after dspike bug fixes so you can get mega kevin uptime which helps the otherwise lackluster ST

soft merlin
#

and you always play kevin then, not bonesmith on certain fights?

slow marsh
#

I think NF still has a chance to be relevant for some fights where ST prio is more important though since shiv sepsis does damage

#

Yeah after tomorrow you only play marileth

#

no reason to play bonersmith anymore

winter vapor
#

no chance anyone here uses threatplates? having some issues trying to get stuff to scale with the options

soft merlin
#

yeah, true. since sbs spreads

#

but you still play dusk/unity on all bosses except pantheon/lords?

slow marsh
#

the pantheon is debatable i think. lords is still dusk

#

after 4p**

#

don't play dusk until 4p

limber lion
soft merlin
#

ye, but im talking about when u get 2 legos 😄

#

ah

#

you wrote with and without

#

kekw

limber lion
#

You only play Zoldyck on it if you don't have 4p

soft merlin
#

Allright, thanks 🙂 and unity on wrist

slow marsh
#

the only reason people are thinking about zold for pantheon even after 4p is because is gets really hectic, but pretty sure it should still be dusk always no matter what

limber lion
#

Zoldyck is more damage on p3, which is the most important part and where most wipes happen

#

So it's a safe bet

#

Dusk is more overall because of p1 and p2, but those phases are kinda whatever in comparison

soft merlin
#

ye, I mean I will try both and see - but I agree, p3 is most important.

#

Will you guys craft unity on wrist asap?

limber lion
#

Yes

soft merlin
#

Better buy the 291 now then before it goes up

plain plaza
#

@limber lion 2-piece set Necro, Unity with Dashing until 4-piece? Then Dusk?

subtle tundra
slow marsh
#

boots?

limber lion
#

Don't think so

echo geyser
subtle tundra
#

nah, not gonna craft

#

for 1 boss

limber lion
#

and m+

#

bingchilling

subtle tundra
#

not playing assa

#

🙂

echo geyser
#

pantheon lord?

#

or is lord dusk now?

limber lion
echo geyser
#

so legit only pantheon?

strange python
#

Zold over dusk in m+?

subtle tundra
#

pantheon since most important dmg is last phase

#

lords is important the whole 9 min

limber lion
echo geyser
strange python
#

Will zoldyk still be fine over dusk in m+

#

I assume so?

limber lion
strange python
#

Great

limber lion
#

Both are great, just do different things

subtle tundra
#

hmmm we got pantheon to ~25% in 2 hours, can we kill tomorrow in 3.5h?

zinc frost
#

Yes, you got this

timid cloud
#

I believe in the you that believes in yourself.

subtle tundra
#

got benched on xymox cause "we dont need boss dps" so i wont have 2 mythic options :((

#

if we kill ofc

zinc frost
timid cloud
#

What was your other?

#

It wasn’t Vigilant & Skolex or Da-Sausage???

subtle tundra
#

i mean

#

2nd option

#

5 bosses

timid cloud
#

Oh oh. Woops.

#

Then you 💯 got this.

zinc frost
timid cloud
#

I think it’s always gonna be a Sin maneuver.

#

Tomorrow might be easier too.

#

Because Bonespike.

umbral rapids
#

also a lot harder to mess up tbh

#

you mean deathspike?

timid cloud
#

Yeah.

umbral rapids
#

would you even play that on lords ?

timid cloud
#

Yes.

umbral rapids
#

deathspike there sounds a bit weird?

subtle tundra
timid cloud
#

Well you gotta if you play NL.

umbral rapids
#

that's exactly

#

why i'm asking

subtle tundra
#

yea

#

lords is two target cleave

#

perfect for deathspike

timid cloud
#

Free spikes

subtle tundra
#

with adds for resets sometimes

timid cloud
#

You net more spikes because you have to do it 1 less time.

#

Means more times for bleeds too on Pantheon.

indigo mulch
#

Do you get double CP from deathspike leggo though?

subtle tundra
#

yes

indigo mulch
#

Noice

subtle tundra
#

(afaik)

timid cloud
#

That’s why you go Deeper too.

#

You’ll just be in CP STONKS

subtle tundra
#

in 4t 1 bonespike = full cp no rng

indigo mulch
#

I was running hc rygelon

#

and god its actually stressful sniping shit with deathspike 😦

timid cloud
#

It will also make your opener cleaner too.

subtle tundra
umbral rapids
timid cloud
#

Well yeah, it’s just more of a reason.

umbral rapids
#

sbs is so good man

#

love that thing

timid cloud
#

But some people play Vigor for comfort.

indigo mulch
#

I play vigor/doomblade

#

on st

timid cloud
#

But you’ll just be wasting CP

zinc frost
#

Yeah It’s the one covenant ability I don’t want to see go in 10.0

timid cloud
#

I only like Flag/SBS

umbral rapids
#

flag is boring idk

timid cloud
#

I like because red.

umbral rapids
#

ER with RC is pretty fun

#

well it doesn't work with sin

timid cloud
#

It only is fun with Outlaw for me.

umbral rapids
#

but the ability legendary combo is really cool on outlaw and sub

zinc frost
#

Yeah flag just kinda feels a bit meh for me where as a ranged bonespike is great. Like in dungeons jumping out frontals or any incoming damage and throwing spikes is where it’s at

umbral rapids
#

flag doesn't make you do anything special

#

it doesn't generate CP or anything

#

just press it and do your thing

versed mica
#

??? You kind of have to set it up and try to line it up with things

umbral rapids
#

sure

versed mica
#

And it's exciting to press and feel the build up

umbral rapids
#

i still don't find it interesting to press

versed mica
#

Sbs you just toss and forget, and when there are multiple targets you just get more combo points from it

umbral rapids
#

like i don't feel like it interacts with my kit enough

#

juggling sbs resets in dungeons is satisfying to me 2_PeepoShrug

limber lion
#

Flag is super boring

limber lion
#

5CP and Flag off cooldown?

#

Press and forget about it

umbral rapids
#

yeah i don't like it

versed mica
#

No

limber lion
#

?

versed mica
#

U guys weird OMEGAKEKW

#

Owned

umbral rapids
#

got me good there ngl

versed mica
#

Destroyed

limber lion
#

Even Sepsis is more interactive than Flag

versed mica
#

Idk why we arguing, obviously sepsis is the mo-

#

Shit lmao

zinc frost
#

What feels good about flag tho?

strange python
#

Deeper strat opener feels awful :(

limber lion
#

Feels fine to me

versed mica
#

Sepsis is more interactive than sbs

umbral rapids
#

tf

limber lion
umbral rapids
#

it's a whole new cp generator

#

?

#

what

#

that resets on death

limber lion
#

SBS is the most interactive covenant ability we have

timid cloud
#

Deeper only feels bad with blindside…

limber lion
#

and it's not even close

umbral rapids
#

and perma bleed

strange python
versed mica
#

LMAO I just don't agree

umbral rapids
#

i mean there's no "don't agree"

limber lion
#

It's not about agreeing or not

#

It's facts

umbral rapids
#

there's nothing subjective about it

strange python
#

Feels like a lot of time waiting for energy for the 3rd Mut to rupture and then start vend shiv

versed mica
#

Dam

zinc frost
umbral rapids
#

cev i like when we think the same thing, makes me feel special hug

versed mica
#

Never said it felt better, just said it's more interactive

timid cloud
#

Only one way to settle this…

#

POLL TIME

limber lion
#

SBS is an ability that's a permanent dot on any target you slap it on. You gain combo points from using it, which can crit. The more targets you apply SBS to, the more combo points you get. If the target you used SBS on dies, you get a reset.

#

Flagellation is an ability that you press before a finisher that stacks up with the amount of combo points you use and does damage and increases your haste accordingly.

#

That's it

#

I'm guessing your Necrolord is literally 1 renown

#

and you've never played it

timid cloud
#

What’s the argument? Which ability feels more fun? Or which ability is more interactive?

limber lion
#

Which is the more interactive one

timid cloud
#

Trying to set it up right now.

limber lion
#

Fun is subjective

#

Interactivity is not

#

Lunatics think that Echoing Reprimand is fun

brazen zodiac
#

xd

limber lion
#

but they're allowed to have that opinion

amber fossil
#

that thump sound of sbs

versed mica
#

Permanent dot is not interactive
Spike getting more combo points from crit is because of an interactive sin ability
It literally just a combo point generator that yeah, is fun, but sin gets more combo points and energy the more targets there are anyway

#

And no, I am max renown in all 4 covs and I play Necro in raid and in m+ when we need a Necro

limber lion
versed mica
#

You just mad I have a different opinion

limber lion
#

You have to literally play it differently according to the fight

#

Whereas Flag you play the same way

#

every

#

single

#

time

#

It's the same thing

#

every

#

single

#

time

versed mica
#

But more targets mean faster flag build up!

zinc frost
#

I’d rather throw out an sbs then get fuck all cp spamming FoK over and over

limber lion
timid cloud
limber lion
timid cloud
#

Lol

#

It’s just for the memes.

limber lion
#

SBS > Sepsis = Echoing Reprimand > Flagellation

#

If we did something differently around Flag windows, then sure

#

but we literally don't

indigo mulch
#

Whats the deeper ppl talking about?

timid cloud
#

Flag used to be different, right? I didn’t play it S1.

limber lion
#

We don't even want to finish at 3cp

indigo mulch
#

Did i misa something?

limber lion
limber lion
indigo mulch
#

Oh

versed mica
#

LMAO how is sepsis more interactive than ER

timid cloud
#

Yeah it was like…Coral or some shit from EP.

#

I think….

limber lion
#

what

#

=

#

means?

zinc frost
#

Its like people who think phial is an exciting trinket

indigo mulch
timid cloud
#

I like it cause poison.

versed mica
#

Oh I misread starege

timid cloud
#

More dots, dots.

fallow canopy
timid cloud
versed mica
#

But I guess it just my lack of knowing, u rite

fallow canopy
limber lion
#

The only thing you need to track with Flag is the cooldown

#

With ER you want to track the anima-charged CP and CD

#

With Sepsis you want to track the CD and the proc

#

With SBS you want to track all the targets that have or don't have it applied, the charges you have, the cooldown of the ability

versed mica
#

I ain't gonna argue with you man, I just don't agree homie

limber lion
#

What is there to argue about?

#

It's not something you agree or don't agree with

#

It's facts

red plaza
#

Oh I haven’t thought about the NF sepsis proc. Do we use it on an empowered garrote or an ambush?

timid cloud
#

Ambush PES_Why

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

Previously we also wanted to track the Sepsis duration itself to match our Vanish with the bonk at the end

gusty mirage
#

because reasons

timid cloud
#

Feels so bad to press sometimes.

limber lion
#

But we don't play MA, so that's not needed

strange python
#

Atleast ambush looks kinda cool xd

limber lion
#

Ambush is great

timid cloud
#

The energy costs, they hurt.

strange python
timid cloud
#

I actually really disliked playing it on Guardian.

zinc frost
#

Yeah felt weird not having ambush on my bars for so long lol

limber lion
timid cloud
#

Always felt worse than normal.

limber lion
timid cloud
#

Nah.

limber lion
#

literally

#

if you played blndside

#

those are free

soft merlin
#

@limber lion how much haste/crit % you wanna aim for?

limber lion
#

procs

red plaza
#

100/100

limber lion
strange python
#

Why do we match vanish with sepsis?

timid cloud
#

Oh I know. But it still felt weird, CP wise.

limber lion
strange python
#

Oh duh

limber lion
#

We play Subterfuge nowadays, so it has no interaction with it

strange python
#

I was struggling to figure out why you'd do that with shbt

#

Subt

timid cloud
#

Cause I really didn’t recall the CP generation I’d possibly get if I crit, & I felt like I was hitting more buttons for finishers. It was just a bit off putting, personally at least. It felt smoother in execution though, I will admit.

soft merlin
#

Tomorrow going to be expensive, crafting 2x unity for different stats, finality & akaari

limber lion
#

sheesh

zinc frost
#

2 x unity is a bit keen

soft merlin
#

Want crit/haste for sin, crit/vers sub

#

Worth it

timid cloud
#

Don’t say the forbidden word around Cev.

#

||Stats||

soft merlin

Oh shit, mb!!

limber lion
#

yheh

ripe gulch
#

around how much haste do i need for sin

#

4 piece double lego

slow marsh
#

like prolly around

#

69%

ripe gulch
limber lion
#

There is no secret number or anything

#

Just sim yourself in Top Gear

#

And do what the sim says

ripe gulch
#

yeah

#

was just asking for a minimum number for the spec to feel comfortable

#

i feel like im always energy starved

limber lion
#

Yeah

#

and there is no minimum

#

Assassination is a slow spec until you get 4p

#

Then it's a speedyboy

zinc frost
#

We are basically outlaw rogues now, even gain AR as NF

limber lion
#

A toned down version though

ripe gulch
#

cant wait

#

to play nf 4 piece

strange python
#

I’m glad I discovered necro, way too fun to pass up

limber lion
#

yep

#

bis covenant

zinc frost
#

It’ll be interesting to see how much venthyr is played once everyone gets 4pc and double leggos.

limber lion
#

Yes, it will be interesting indeed.

gusty mirage
zinc frost
#

But flag is so good to press 🧢

sonic schooner
#

it s been a while since i ve seen so many "how much haste do i need for sin" peepostudy

#

I wonder if we’ll miss the “how much crit do I need for frost shards/dashing scoundrel” days

#

how good is MA with 4 set?

misty holly
#

and I dont think it's wrong.

hollow river
#

That’s fine if they only live that duration

#

Or if they won’t live a 5cp ruptures duration

misty holly
#

The thing is, I don't always know how long they are going to live.

#

They might live longer.

#

But I'm only gonig to waste one build/finish per mob

#

when there are 8 mobs in front of me

limber lion
misty holly
#

no way am I buildint twice before dropping that rupture

limber lion
#

Doing 3-4 CP ruptures is actually fine on a few targets or when setting up bleeds for the first time

#

But you want to default to 4-6CP bleeds after you have energy rolling

#

Assuming they live the entire duration

zinc frost
#

I know i meme about FoK but in huge pulls in m + you should be getting full ruptures out anyways, it’s the 5 mobs where it probably works since FoK is hit and miss there

green isle
#

is 7-8k dps for 251 ilvl +15 keys good/bad? ive been reading the guides and trying to do the correct rotation

limber lion
#

We can't really say

#

It depends on your group, route, tactic, pull size, dungeon etc.

normal slate
#

with 2 set and double leggo is staying necro still considered reasonable, if so what should second leggo be?

limber lion
#

You obviously do more overall in SD than you would in say TOP

limber lion
normal slate
#

ty ty , i love my necro

#

dont want to change

limber lion
#

Good, don't have to

normal slate
#

would zoldyck be decent as 2nd in m+?

zinc frost
#

Yeah it will be decent for overall as always with necro, can do duskwalkers with 4pc for more prio damage

limber lion

#

Ambush is currently only used from blindside/sepsis proc, not from stealth.
The reasoning is a little complicated, but the most important of them is the difference in combo points on crit (up to 4 vs 3).
Some other factors to consider are increased poison applications, blindside, and doomblade. This is true for all talent combinations and legendaries.

Reassessing my gear and rotation. Got 2pc and I'm still not getting better damage

zinc frost

You can always send logs through if you want someone here to assess it and give you tips

sour citrus
#

need opinion, I have been using phial and titan ocular to bring my crit up to 31 or 32 and then because of titan, haste to 29 or 30. That a good idea?

HEROIC CACHE TRINKET LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

lofty pivot
#

Are rogue splaying sin in mythic+ i just tried it and my dps is CRAP 7.5k dps overall why

glass tulip
#

Delicious chefkiss

#

Now use axe during anduin intermission and go to #1 on DPS meters @winged basin

lofty pivot
glass tulip
#

But for assassin you want subterfuge, vigor/ds, and CT at the very minimum

lofty pivot
#

Rogue just bad for AoE but good for boss?

glass tulip
#

Otherwise you are not doing any aoe

lofty pivot
#

yeah got those

#

Just i was doing 10k aoe while others are pulling 15K + and on boss im only getting 8k ish

#

I just did 14 and my overall was 7.5 so i feel that is pretty low

glass tulip
#

You can still do pretty decent damage to packs

#

But it also sounds like you aren't playing optimally

#

And pretty much every other class will do more aoe then assassin rogue, just not how the spec is made

lofty pivot
#

Myabe yeah i am not use to playing rogue in mythic just arenas lol

winged basin
#

THIS TRINK IS SO GOATED WTF

#

9% dps lmaoooooooo

#

do I only use it when I get axe for prepull?

#

like wait for it to rotate to axe then use?

gusty mirage
#

but axe is almost always the play

#

also be careful with trying to wait on the prepull for it, because sometimes it just insta swaps when the boss is pulled

winged basin
#

oh word

#

so like just so I got it down, its not really part of opener

#

unless luck

gusty mirage
winged basin
#

that weakaura is absolutely goated

#

thank you oxi

gusty mirage
winged basin
#

❤️

gusty mirage
#

if you wanna see some real degen shit, play sub in a key with it and play planned execution

#

some pulls its legit 33% of my damage kekl

winged basin
#

might not have 2 pc but least I got goated heroic trinket

#

pls daddy vault tomorrow

#

pls

gusty mirage
#

may you all get tier pieces in your vaults

winged basin
#

mythic 278 tier piece inc

#

cache bis trink tho right?

#

or "bis"

#

cache and shadowgrasp?

winged basin
#

LOL it auto swapped to wand

#

and I sustained like 26k for like 20 seconds

hollow river
#

trinket will come off cool down and it won't show me which buff it's on

balmy condor
#

that's not the WA

#

that's the trinket

gusty mirage
#

yeah it takes time for you to find the weapon bro

#

whatchu mean

hollow river
#

orly

gusty mirage
#

yea

hollow river
gusty mirage
#

buff needs to be present for you to use it

red plaza
#

Yeah CD is actually 3min 24 seconds

#

😂

hollow river
#

i thought the WA was scuffed to deff

lunar otter
#

hey so Heimir 2 potency for m+ ?

barren drift
#

Alright, Subt main planning Assass as offspec for the more sustained aoe fights like pantheon and lords of dread. With 4p do I go Zoldyck for that swap or Duskwalker?

#

Pins say Duskwalker with 4p but logs showing way more people with Zoldyck

hollow river
lunar otter
#

@hollow river cheers babes

hollow river
#

2: zoldyck's is very good for p3, and overall in that fight

#

which is best for you, and your raid/parse etc idk

#

there's a specific way to sim it i think

#

pins do say to use zoldycks on that fight tho

#

if that helps

barren drift
#

Tyvm

lunar otter
#

an y one know how to get SBS bleed on my plates in plater

hollow river
#

Very nice

zinc frost
lunar otter
#

i mway to used to my plates >.<

#

they just show gar rup and ct

hollow river
#

I mean you can add the debuff to your plates any way that you prefer

lunar otter
#

ye i just tried and it didnt show up lol

hollow river
#

Since it never runs out though imo it’s best to change the color of the bar

lunar otter
#

yeye woiuld be good

hollow river
#

I think it may conflict with priority targets in m+ tho

#

If your plates have diff colors for specific targets

lunar otter
#

ye thats why i didnt ant colour change

#

*want

hollow river
#

Yeah it’s been so long since I’ve used SBS in m+ idr if it conflicts or not

#

You could make it into a texture

#

Instead of diff color

#

So it just adds stripes to the plate

#

Etc

lunar otter
#

ye no idea on that one haha im not that good sheesh

dusk summit
#

It seems like most of the pinned stuff is focused on the raid and raid out put. Does anyone know if there is a difference between raid set up and M+ that can give me a hand?

zinc frost
#

But you’ll most likely want to go marileth for m + for resets and Kevin uptime. Talents are vigor/CT

tidal gorge
#

Is that shiv timing stuff no longer relevant? Was looking around for it in case I get 4pc tomorrow, but not seeing it anymore

zinc frost
#

This is for 4pc double leggo and NF

tidal gorge
#

Yes, but it's no longer pinned or in the FAQ so I wasn't sure if that means it's no longer the go-to

zinc frost
#

Yeah I think it was in the previous 9.2 feedback fed that Whispyr had pinned there

balmy condor
#

It’s still the go to

#

It’s just the default now for fae

rotund oak
subtle vale
#

So unity at 291 will be wrist for sin rogue?

zinc frost
#

Wrist is the safe option yes

violet jackal
#

Hero damage and blood mallet have it on neck any logic behind that?

zinc frost
#

Those were the initial sims done which put it on neck, wrist is the safer since it’s least disruption to tier set and any other conflicting leggo (Akaari is on neck in case you wish to go sub) - but unity can be re-crafted if you truly want to min-max after you have full tier set

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

There’s a couple slots that are somedps better

subtle vale
#

so if i only plan on playing sin neck would be better?

balmy condor
#

Nah

#

If you want that extra 30 dps

#

You would craft on helm

#

And get the other 4 pieces of tier

#

But you need to have the high ilvl on other slots

#

And it might not even be better depending on your gear

violet jackal
#

Hmmm but aren’t hands the worst stat wise?

balmy condor
#

It’s really questionable

balmy condor
violet jackal
#

Ah that is true

balmy condor
#

The tldr is wrists are close enough to bis and usable on other specs

#

And if you really want to min max the minimal of gains

hollow escarp
#

you mean usable, right?

balmy condor
#

Then go clear mythic and shit and get a ton of gear

#

And then recraft it then

balmy condor
zinc frost
glass tulip
#

Axe DoT is too strong notlikethis

#

2.3 million damage over 2-3 uses on Anduin

inland heath
#

so how shity are we going to be on mythic+?

zinc frost
#

Not so much shitty more so sub very much better

umbral tulip
#

Does this mean the dots will actually do damage as well?

#

Or that they will just be there if you do it fast enough to get back

hollow escarp
#

hope it works for SBS

#

other bleeds will fall off anyway

#

but if they do damage, it would be good to reapply them before phase

umbral tulip
#

How are you kojack

#

Did u find somewhere to raid

hollow escarp
#

yeah

!guides

surreal flower
#

so with aoe is there no situation where you just spam knifes and crimson tempest? you just refresh when its low while applying rupture to more targets?

zinc frost
#

Yeah no need to spam CT, just reapply like everything else

balmy condor
patent granite
#

38 targets....that sounds doable

#

Tanks just need to pull more

balmy condor
#

I had to run the numbers for a prick that didn’t believe me

hollow escarp
#

so not even worth doing it on the big blob pull in Plaguefall

balmy condor
#

And not worth in ardenweald unless you pull every crane, have a cast go through which would aggro every crane, the dragon, the pack after the dragon, all the hidden mobs, and you manage to find a way to stack them so your CT can actually hit all of them

patent granite
#

ill run that strat by my tank, im sure hell agree to it

balmy condor
#

You’d have to pull everything after the wall trap tunnel to the pat before the boss

#

And it would be like +0.5%

hushed dirge
#

It sucks have to craft multiple leggos for Sin.

balmy condor
#

As opposed to sub, which has to craft the same amount of legos

#

I agree

#

Tragedy really

surreal flower
#

ok I will remind my tank to pull around 40 targets

#

easy starege

hushed dirge
#

At least with sub I only need to craft 2 leggos vs 4 with sin. (Unity excluded).

balmy condor
#

FOUR?

hollow escarp
#

only need to craft like 5 legendaries if you wanna play assa and sub PepeLaugh

balmy condor
#

My guy what fucking legendaries are you crafting

#

You are out of your god damn mind

#

Crafting 4 legos on sin

hollow escarp
#

Unity, Duskwalkers, Zoldyck, Finality and Akaari

balmy condor
#

I can’t even name 4 sin legos and I write the fucking guide

surreal flower
#

LMAO

hushed dirge
#

Outlaw has the easiest time with one leggo to upgrade.

balmy condor
#

Duskwalker, zoldyck, dashing, the one that’s like dashing because it does the same thing and sims equal but it’s for necro, the shiv one that no one uses

#

What else is there

hushed dirge
#

Doomblade

hollow escarp
balmy condor
#

(Yes it’s a joke, that’s the bit)

#

Realistically you only need 1 lego on sin as well

surreal flower
#

gonna craft 291 tiny toxic blade starege

#

big shiv pumper

hollow escarp
#

if you check logs, all top rogues play it kapp

balmy condor
#

Idk who told you to craft 4 legos for sin

#

But they are smoking crack my guy

soft merlin
#

Hahaha

hollow escarp
#

I would say even Zoldyck is optional ngl

surreal flower
#

I guess he could be counting deathly shadows prepull?

zinc frost
#

Gotta have 4-5 leggos for sin, another unity because it gives me 30dps on helm, then another unity for sub because can’t have haste /s

balmy condor
hushed dirge
#

So far I have had to craft 3 leggos already.

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

Unity, and Duskwalker

soft merlin
#

Unity, Dusk, Zoldyck

#

Should be enough

hollow escarp
#

more than enough

surreal flower
#

yeah I haven't played sin rogue much

balmy condor
#

You can skip the zold prolly

#

Or if you only play sin on dread/panth

soft merlin
#

Prolly, but I want to play it in p3 for Panth

balmy condor
#

You can skip the dusk

hollow escarp
#

tbf, unity + finality on sub 4 set in keys makes it not even worth the effort to play sin in keys

thin trout
#

i have 1 set piece with killing evreything on heroic and normal and LFR since it's released (okay -1 anduin heroic first week)

soft merlin
#

I have my sin legos, just need to craft 2x unity, finality + akaari

balmy condor

2x unity

balmy condor

What fucking game do you guys play

soft merlin
hollow escarp
#

not worth the 40 dps

surreal flower
#

new update if you craft cov lego and unity to get stacking buff starege

soft merlin
#

For sin and sub (not going to use the forbidden word)

balmy condor
#

People will craft 25 legendaries to compensate for their depression or lack of friends or something

soft merlin
#

for sub is mainly for m+ tho

surreal flower
#

gotta craft unity in every slot because you can!

#

ya never know what blizzard does at the end of expansions!

hollow escarp
#

unity on bracers and call it a day YEP

zinc frost

If you craft unity on wrist the small amount of haste is so minor for sub even in m +

it will be good in high keys when stuff lives enough, am I right?

So im trying to improve my gameplay and i was reading through the faq and it says always finish max-1 cp. So my question is why, i mean should i ever go for that fifth cp like with a garrote or something or its always 4cp sans DS

surreal flower
#

where is whispyr M+ streams 😦

balmy condor
#

It’s not inherently better in any way, just more energy efficient

#

Instead of 4cp for 30 energy, you’re doing 5cp for 30 energy

If only you could wear multiple class leggos. copium

I kinda really hate the season affix

If you have enough immunes you can cycle them on the 3rd boss making it easier for the tank.

balmy condor

How are you gonna immune the tank mechanic

assuming u have enough immunes

it’s fun when you’re mostly bad but have a pull where you actually pop off

with 4p sub everyone can feel like that Pog

Or popping off every pull only to die on kill and grey parse like a chad

rogues have this try hard stigma but really I just love bein a little stabby loser that sometimes rules.

if it doesnt sim higher dont use it tbh

im using doomblade even if dashing is something like 50dps more

Take cubes off if you raid with a MW without an Innervate, you won't get a second cast, it'll go to mana.

I just came to a revaluation even more important then cache on my morning commute to work. Double leggo means I FINALLY get to use deathspike leggo guilt free no punishment, cause unity and I think that hypes me up for keys more than literally anything

I get 2 pc from vault obviously cause I’m giga chat and I just mega push keys this week

have fun then 🙂

I will indeed, I got heroic cache last night, so the amount of AOE I feel inc… maybe I too can pretend I’m a sub rogue while staying on sin Copium

Yes. Once you get 4p sub is much much better than assa.

With 2 set only, assa kinda equal to sub but sub still has funnel

2 set sub in keys is not great

4 set though

yeah for sure, I’ve just wanted to use deathspike all xpac without being punished for using a meh leggo kekw

I’m sin only, I’ve tried to play sun and can’t, enjoy sin play style too much

subtle tundra
#

I mean, its still being used at a cost

#

It's not free

#

It would be another leggo for other covenants

winged basin
#

Doesn’t it swap effects based off your current covenant?

#

So if I go Venth it swaps to obed

subtle tundra

Yea, I can see a world where you can try to play necro assa with zoldyck but then you would still do worse aoe than sub and worse st

subtle tundra

#

ahh I see I see

subtle tundra

It's not free

winged basin

subs numbers mean little to me cause I rarely push past timing everything at 15 cause I’m disgustingly bad at keys, my only use is in raid and I’ll be NF for that anyhow
