just with vendetta is fine
its for bigger boobs man

i dont know if my gnome wants bigger boobs
Are they adding a boob slider?
what
god, I hope so
lol
would prefer ass slider, or both. but take what you get

😈
pk in m+ legit or nah?
poison knives condy?
yes
Most of our conduits suck
Pk, lethal poisons, doesn't really matter
is not taking subtre trolling or nah on tyrannical
prob
I think not taking sub in keys is mostly troll
no
sub is neutral
you can do comps with or without them
we are far from the meta of last season
still 3rd best dps
i mean
havoc is probably better depending on comp right
because of their magic buff
How is havoc better
does it have stronger funnel than sub?
no class can rly provide that,except frost mage and Enh shaman
but not that strong funnel and not combined with so much control
Havoc has really good cc and decent damage
Good st and aoe
magic buff
Interacts extremely well with urh with blade dance
Idk about better but it’s def good if you absolutely need the 5% magic
destro funnels better than sub
you just never notice cause they're too busy doing 400k aoe dps
eh
destro cleaves
or am i missing something
they get shit ton of shards in aoe from rain of fire
and then just blast 2 targets super hard with chaos bolts
oh ye which they prio with bolts
yy
f@ck warlocks
im gonna kill eveyrone that has a wm on
I wish
my gf was in hawaii 2 weeks ago you could've finessed
wait hol up
I gotta ditch covid weight. Ten days is enough time right?

I also used to play a warlock if you want more reasons to hate me
Shun


maybe i do keys tomorrow
Friend got 2 bonkers back to back out of his.
Actually malded.
I got…Bells…twice…
I've been working on a plater script to track both pandemic AND bleeds hasted by vendetta
Can I send a video here to show what it looks like for now ?
Hi guys, just wondering about a state of assassination rogue right now. How is it going? Cuz as far as i can see, this spec in a pretty bad shape (still from the start of SL) Is it so?
Why is the spec in bad shape?
sin was bis in CN after the buffs
sin was equal to sub in sanctum and both did perform about equal
sin atm is on par with subtlety overall in the raid
the only content sin is not played a lot is m+ and sub is slightly better in that content
cuz ur not playing on horde
thats why spec dead zz

u have a great day minal i hit the boof in honor of u today

But what about your boss damage?
Oh. . .
(tbf he was dead I think)
That’s very opposite of my experience. I’m close bottom 3 dps on trash but then I zoom to doubling the 2nd dps on bosses
ah
ye he was not alive I was just wanting to talk shit
posting out of context ss
interesting weekly quest ring 

26+ ye
29 xd
i didnt know the explosion did 70k
so i died just as i popped first vendetta in bl
it do hurt
ye just feint
nah

hot damn
cloak is useless anyways
wtb sin in TGP
Damn @subtle tundra , that's a full 180 from 2 weeks ago. What changed?
a full 180 from what

is chains of domination good on assassination?
it is, but it is hard to get your hands on a high item level one
chain/cache both are target uncapped so they offer something "unique"
oh i was lucky and gat it heroic form the chest
like what? i just use it and do dmg
or do you mean the thing whare you have to move away for the aoe?
you need to break the chain to get full efficiency
also there are other easier trinkets to get like sigil
so i don't think that we will see a lot of ppl play it
well i dont have anything else atm so i wil use it what is aother good trinket beside phial?
well have fun, just don't forget to break the chain
and what changed
Can't be more annoying than earthbreakers
earthbreakers is fine
Real reason to play sin over sub: sub trinkets are cancer
if you don't run initially like a maniac
the fisures will spawn fairly close, so should be easy to break
It spawning outside of melee range during opener makes me wanna alt f4
but you can do shadowlands.earthbreakers_impact_weak_points=2 as custom apl option
if you think you only break 2
I honestly can never tell if I missed the third until I check logs after
i got a mythic one on my halondrus kill so please no anti earthbreakers propaganda
im full copium on loving this trinket now

That is what I am asking u
A bit new to Assn so I apologize if this is a dumb question, but everything I've found says to use mutilate out of stealth/vanish instead of ambush, is there a reason for that?
Seal Fate CPs
!mut
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.
this is a little old but works for MA
wat
my point still stands, i dont want to play tyra assa keys
i only think swapping is good
for specific scenarios
Hi guys, don't know if this is a right channel to ask. Do you know where i can find on logs what theotar's tea buff someone had during a fight?
@echo geyser thanks for being a based gamer (I’m sure you boss swapped but Grats on the 30)
played full key as clueless sin
no its just for 2nd necro
Ahhh
we didnt even get to use the pools
they have too much dmg

well
its easy key anyways
unfortunately my group has 0 disease dispelss
fucking dog shit
we swapping to necro hpal
i mean
easy for your group
cause thaner has like all chars
just swap to another class ez
survival hunter or survival (live) ?
Hunter
u mean the physial debuff or what
Yeah.
nah they gain more from dh buff
- wl ofc
but necro dh not the juice
while ww likes necro
Necro DH....
I wish necro dh was good

it's fun
u dont even have an active ability right
im pretty sure its not even that good
WW's do less damage than tanks.
& their niche isn't even strong anymore in comparison to other AOE specs.
yea it's passive cov thing
but it's a lot more fun than venthyr
i had the same overall on rogue as their monk did on 29 soa which they timed and we depleted big time
did you do the same pullls
I joined late
xd
rip then I guess
we had some triple pulls
the reason we depleted was a ninja pull 🙂
not even gameplay
PAIN


Just read that outlaw is killing it in pvp? Is that real?
Yes
Tottenham fan 
Hi friend!
Hope your Saturday is as wonderful as @bleak sky is cute

dm me I'm free tonight

jelly
Lol, its love and hate

it is you both are cute
I don’t share minalba, he’s mine
👨❤️👨
If you're looking for someone to dom, try #subtlety

About to go to timeout 


I'm still upset this channel hasn't been renamed to Sinners
Alliance, unlucky
should've played draven
You should’ve just rerolled warlock
no
cringe class
"but minalba you play rogue" yes yet somehow warlock is even more cringe
Says the guy playing venthyr assassination in keys in 9.2
I wanted to have some funsies ok
Happy to hear it friend 

They'll say it is
Guild apps are out. Wish me luck boys

The casual "I'm unavailable Tuesday because I'm seeing John mulaney and then im unavailable for two weeks cause I'll be in Hawaii" apps
Yeah maybe apply after ur trip
unless ur logs are nuts

Just started sim rogue, I’m sad that 4pc doesn’t affect everyone while vendetta is out like 2pc does. Would be very nice for m+
until you realize how shit it would feel to play
you’d get garrote on like 1 target and be scrambling for ur life to keep ruptures up lol
True, but imagine popping it last 30% with zoldyck, al mobs doted 😂 dps 7k7k7k9k9k,40k
Aoe vendetta will never happen
No, but would be cool to make assa rogues choose between 15% self buff and 30% st buff on vendetta. 2 buttons on same cd, pick what you use where
assa has bigger problems than that buddy
Thanks for letting me know, bro
how would you do that
talent?
Vendetta commitment is cool twist compared to fire/forget cds
also, assa's niche of only having ST cd is cool
no, it was cool, in mop. nowadays, just sucks
would not mind that talent tbh
Last patch for example we could beat a lot of strong classes on packs where they didnt have cds
Would be nice for my group since packs don’t last that long anyways 🥹
i mean, vendetta would become very boring
if it were aoe
it would literally read
"dps increase 20%"
thanks
fun
yeah, because targeting 1 target with 30% of the same is so much more fun hahahah
yes bcs you actually have to focus that one target
it actually does something
instead of mindless aoe
so that makes it fun, that you have to stick to same target? that's super limiting, not fun
Then play Sub
i play all specs, prefer assa, and don't hate vendetta. just think it's a boring ass cd, and considering game shifted heavily towards having m+ as one of the main contents, would not mind having a bit more choice when it comes to aoe cds
i like not having aoe cds
great for you 🙂
it's ok to have some variety
now that assa's tuning is dogshit for aoe, is another problem
other classes got way more borrowed power so we fell behind
besides, I did not say remove vendetta as is, just said giving us option to use it as aoe cd instead, on same cd , would be cool. don't see how having more options with same cd is less fun.
I think vendetta is boring baseline, any "x% more dmg" is boring i like my CDs to change how I play. 4p vendetta is a very noticeable shift in rotation
I am happy being 5th on dps meter but doing 1/6 more dmg then closest follower on boss
I am not there to imitate other 10 specs dmg out-put; rl gets me in for bulk dmg on prio
i thought the same until i saw the survival hunter beating me in AOE and boss dam
then i just kinda gave up lmao
Didn't take you for a masochist
he used to raid like 5 days a week on 2 characters
hey guys, trying to pick up some sin after playing sub all tier so far. could i get some feedback on what to improve based off this skolex kill. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/BwaGhb4KC83jTcqN#fight=20&type=damage-done&source=711 tysm in advance
I only did something like that in ICC
Ah, to be young again

Nah he doesnt beat you in boss dam his cleave damage to urh just does more than the gap in boss dam
cope harder bozo

all they need is a decent amount of procs
and they literally shit on rogue ST
Then why dont people play sv for raid st 
bcs we're comparing m+ dmg
you seem to misunderstand
i went to the details meter
clicked on enemy damage taken
and he had done more boss damage than me


but thats...
Yeah i get it sv doesnt change talents
normal
We go subt
ye but agreon is coping
And its a smaller window
survival doesn't do more boss damage trust 
and i just got pissed and shitted on
Survival isnt good 
Bro im happy for them fr
They get to be a part of the wow community
yeah but so do warlocks
At least they earned it fuck destro lock

hi - i noticed ALL the top rogues are using edge of night dagger. I'll never get this as i don't raid. Are the options available from m+ dungeons significantly worse?
oh balls i thought i was in the sub channel! TBH i've ALWAYS played sin - but it seems not be doing so well these days?
its strong in raid
i only play m+ 😦
tough luck
if you like it you should play it! and its not leaning on edge of night 🙂
as well as only doing m+ i also only pug and community perception is quite an issue from experience.
Just join party as sub and change spec during pull timer xd
Most people won't kick you for spec

Hey Guys you got any up to date PI sheet?
pinned in general
A cool vendetta rework would be to spread the bleeds on the target you used it on.
like you find some way to put up some giga bleeds on one target
or alternatively they could not change vendetta and either add new interesting abilities and passives or iterate on other abilities that don't work as well
and then vendetta spreads it to everything
Do we remove secondary poison on The Jailer?
wound would replace deadly poison
only right before the heal though
its only on mythic jailer and you only use wound poison when hes about to cast eternity's end or whatever
man that sounds pretty annoying
if you have an arms warrior i think their mortal strike works on it as well
mirrors is patched
o
i feel like a priest loses alot leaving fae
those remove the mechanic
supposedly the mortal strike effects reducing the healing was intended
*haven't done mythic jailer ^
so like arms warriors and rogues were supposed to be able to reduce its effectiveness
and anyone else that has healing cut
idk what other classes do if any
hunter
yeah i was gonna say maybe hunter
didnt RSK from monk used to or is that a pvp talent
oh yah and those guys are everywhere now
rsk is mortal strike ya
but i think up until the buffs it's probs more of a throw to bring a ww
or to gear one
compared to a warrior who can just swap between arms and fury
well
all arms players play fury most fights rn
so it's fine
fury is a really easy spec to pcik up
apm junky
does not appear that ww has healing reduction baseline
ill check in game rq
i know for sure but ya check
believe its the same as MS
ya
isn't assa's stronger?
that i dont know
i thought assa had a stronger wouun d poison but maybe only with the talent master poisoner
master poisoner makes it 5 stacks instead of 3 iirc
so like 40
well assa is amazing single target and unless mythic does something special
i think it continues to be a singlet arget fight yes
theres some adds
isnt only the MC'd people?
oh but thats not like a super big factor into the dmg profile i feel
on mythic they definitely matter
oh ok
so assa not so strong
anytiem you bring more than afew targets into the mix, we start to crumble
thats not exactly how it works
at least, that's how I feel. only exception is short living adds
where i can play necro 🙂
enough fire mages frost dks sv hunters destro locks etc and the adds should burn pretty fast
and nerfs will come and gear will get better
and those are short living adds
sin should be just fine on jailer
because they NEED to die
oh so effectively it's still single target for ppl not assigned to killing htem
sin has passive aoe as venth basically so its really not that big of a deal
i mean the fight is overall single target but everyone will aoe the adds when they come out
ct
CT
talent
Sin dev working on dragonflight talent trees I see you, please make crimson tempest baseline and add shrouded suffication as a talent and sin is saved, ty
i knew that i was like searching thru the soulbinds looking for a trait that started with those letters
i see what you mean they take ct so they have it
poison bomb is also passive aoe so i was confused
Poison bomb is a trash
are you playing necro in raid?
for now yeah

just heroic for now
dude baseline = on the talent tree and theres no way they scrap ct
every class probably has to talent aoe
i just got back into things last month so i dont have time to swap and level up to 80 rn
Not true
it’s really quick now but also definitely still sort of a pain
im doing all the wqs i can with contract so i get revered enlightment on top of the dailies
dont we just get like 10 things level 1-10 then everything else is talent points?
It should be like black powder, always available and not taking power budget of a talent point
they should delete black powder
Don't think so they said very few actives
we have no idea how the new system works
hmm
pb doesn't do a whole lot of dmg, but if i spec into tempest without the venthyr interaction if eel like i just lose out on envenom dmg when i cast CT so it's a wash
well yeah i hope ct isnt a node then too if thats how theyre doing it
Basically CT needs to be treated like black powder or blade flurry
Not some optional thing
u want it to be baseline
Yes
taht's the jist i get from the interiews
I don’t like how you’re interpreting this talent system rn lol
monka
but hes right
i mean idk man i didnt play old wow so im not sure how they would implement it
How I interpret it is we will have almost actives off the tree and it will be a ton of passives
but possibly
yeah like 70 of them
theres gonna be 51

51 points they said
oh
I am sending deep copium
I envision it as each decision node will probably have 3 branches of empowerment, making the previous node stronger
Sensing
every level 10-60 i think?
anyone have the example tree they gave us
Where did you envision this from, out of your ass?

Just give us poe tree
yeah right
And 100 talent points to spend
allegedly my ass
casual player goes
1 per level
OMG GAME IS TAILORED TO NO LIFERS
and then they have to balance a giga tree
Like league has recommended items
not happening
I also watched the interviews with game devs, the few that have come out and the phrases "talent tree is where you build your character" kinda of played into that vision
if they can't balance talents as they are now, imaggine a poe like tree


I mean they basically said about 2/3rds of the nodes will be taken. The trees aren't gonna be too complex most likely
i dont think they'd put an ability like shadowstrike for sub into the talent tree, those kind of core abiltiies will still be baseline
theyre doing like a 50 50 class and spec tree where the class tree has base abilities and utility and the spec tree has enhancements and shit for spec abilities
i could see them making shadowstrike an enhancement of ambush on the sub tree, as an example
mut an enhancement of sinister strike
but i also don't see them introducing a ton of new abilities into the game, they're still staying the course with the prune thing so the only thing i can imagine is they take out baseline abilities and put it into the tree and if you pick those abilities you can spend more points in subsequent branches to beef them up
they did say they used artifact traits and prior systems for inspiration on some parts of the tree, so it could be alot of passive crap too
i could imagine mastery will be baseline and main cds will be baseline but who knows what else they have planned
ya its really hard to imagine they'd put something like vendettta in the tree
and if htey did it would be very annoying
i bet there will be a node with buffs to vendetta of some kind though
like how the druid tree had incarn in their proposed build
but think back to tbc, they had fucking shadowstep as the premier talent granted it did increase the dmg of your next ability
and mobility was huge at the time
man the new skill tree is so much "nicer" looking lol
if this is the best sample we have to work with its possible to make some deductions
necro or venth for ToP?
does anyone know about fucking boomkins
i cant make deductions without knowing what these spells do
and it's wild that the tree is somewhat the simple part in poe
god I love poe
I mean if they plop Vendetta in the middle of the Assassination tree it won't really matter
give me the new league
Or they will just make it a mid-tier capstone
yeah new league plz
the lunar eclipse thing is the first talent point, boomkin form the second, perhaps the moonfire looking one is like that talent where moonfire hits 2 targets?
Like Starfall is
im hype for new Blue league

i mean moonkin form being a talent, are we really reverting back to this crap
It's just a replacement for passive leveling skills
im hype for ben uniques
It's fine tbh
and that would be like moonkin affinity
ok
all the circles are some sort of passive
all the squares are new abilities
near the top you can see trees
well what about the numbers in the bottom right corner
oh you right
or its a talent you can level multiple times
so like you can see convoke there near the bottom
and to the left of it is some sort of upgrade to CA
oh ok so this is one druid, i thought they were 2 separate examples
this druid is part resto part boomy
no the one on the left is the druid tree the one on the right is the balance tree
all druids get the druid tree
but only boomies get the balance tree
oh wow
Feral probably will want it 😄
yes
Yeah
so like rogue on the left will have stuff like sprint shadowstep blind
but you can only access your own spec tree ? or you have access to all 3 spec trees
you can make trees for different specs
but you cant use both sub and outlaw at the same time
so like you would have a sub build with certain talents, maybe an aoe talent build for sub, and then totally separate builds for outlaw or sin
this will be very good then
its hard to know until we get to test it
you get 51 points for both trees or 51 for each
i see
so you could be strugglign to choose between being better at ur spec thing or being better at being a druid
like travel form being faster or doing more dmg with starfire
ohh its fixed
damn
you couldnt chuck all of em into balance to be a hyper charged boomy
so you dont have to choose between spec enhancements and damage vs class utility and base power
because everyone would always go for big damage and like
skip taking stuns and kicks and shit
from their class tree
ya ya pretty much everyone but pvpers would just go all spec tree
this is much better
i feel like viewing this example makes it look awesome, but not all classes are as dynamic as druid
there's alot of overlap with dks and and what not
So you'll need X talents invested to go past that line
You can't just beeline to the bottom in a straight line
Yes
i like that actually
whats that icon in the very bottom right
I'm guessing it's like
11 points for the 1st and 21 points for the 2nd or something like that
if I were to guess
cause it seems like they're choosing the fury of elune talent
instead of whatever that is
its new moon
boat
if you could specalize in your own spec at being better at aoe or single target rahter than needing to character swap or spec swap entirely
Ah
its probably some sort of empowered moonkin form
you can see them at the bottom
There's a total of 17 points above that line available
They said you'd take about 2/3rds
cause no other spell has that icon in game atm
we need to see the rogue one
im hyped
i gotta look at the o ld artifact traits from legion cause apparently some are being used
They will need to tbh
Rogue has so much shared stuff otherwise
It'll be hard to fill out without reviving Artifact traits and maybe some set bonus/legendary stuff
I wouldn't really be shocked if Kingsbane came back. I'm kinda hoping.
i didnt main assa i just had an alt of pretty much everything in legion cause for pvp it was alt friendly (templates)
what was optimal way to use kingsbane
Surge of Toxins I would put money on
Also maybe some of the Torghast defensive things
Poison Knives trait possible
Dense Concoction would be a decent filler
Yeah was pretty nice
ya urge to kill was baked into vendetta and poison bomb is a talent so a few are off the table, but blood of the assinated surge of toxins seem like nice ones
kings bane with the cdr fits well into our kit
with shiv being short cd
sinister circulation + kingsbane
i want u

would be nice to get a different "opening move" because without subterfuge your garrote is same stealthed as unstealthed outside the silence
cause we share ambush with outlaw
or just shrouded suffocation
without the stacked powers of shrouded is it that good?
let ambush be
for extra aoe they could make crimson tempest interact with mastery if you specced far into the aoe side of things
i think something as simple as rupture cleave would make our AoE a lot more fluid
ya effectiely that but it would need some kind of activator
like arms has sweeping strikes
it passively cleaving would probably make it worse for ST
just in terms of balance
u could do it so it only cleaves during vendetta - borrowing from the way Fire Mage works
like it already does?

the bleed from that ability doesn't interact with venemous wounds
i meant
sorry u right
i always confuse mastery with VW for some reason
yah that wouldd be epic
ct with vw wouldnt affect our aoe at all
but yeah sure
it would just make us always cast CT in single target
more energy wouldn't help u ?
ya if u use a million globals
it wouldn't help at all
by that time, everything is already dead
energy cap happens at about 5 bleeds
which is opener subterfuge garrotes, 1 normal garrote, 1 rupture
you reach saturation super fastr
thats 5 globals
i mean it would be better than aoe is rn
it would literally not be the same as aoe rn
it wouldn't
yeah
because you'd still keep rupture up because damage
and garrote because damage
and it ruins the whole ramping into aoe thing
but gz now you're even more giga capped I guess
well if there's more than 8 targets i just fall over and pretend i dc anyway
why 8 targets

cause i dont wanna rupture that many dudes man
it's like
so obviously my ideas are gonna b eflawed
but general sentiment i get from playing is i hate mass aoe
as this spec
^
and sin doesn't do mass aoe
we literally can't
"but at an imaginary number of targets we spam ct" cool
ya idk what would make it better
I enjoy pressing vendetta in packs and pretending the numbers are from aoe
if anything
how about making it do damage
what, fok?
yeah so i just hopped on sub as the wrong covenant for aoe, literally only pressed 2 buttons and did 20k to 5 targets, no cds no nothing
1 min cd where rupture applies to like 3 targets would be nice
not a problem btw
not even dance
Fan of knives dmg increased vs targets with bleeds
on god I'll int my way to the title as sin this patch
deal more damage per enemy bleeding up to a cap
just in general

Sumin like that
you can unironically maintain 20k aoe on 5 targets when sub is soft capped at 8 targets while pressing exactly 2 buttons
sometimes just 1 button
well tornado is a button so
no no
4p
