I think there was a command or pin for troubleshooting unity

unequip reequip i think

!unityfix

If you have issues with UNITY not working try the following:

  • Log out and in again
  • Close down World of Warcraft and clear the wow cache (delete Cache folder in WoW/retail)
  • Unequip the Legendary and equip it again
  • Change Soulbinds/Covenant

@deft vault ^^

funny bug

balmy condor
brazen zodiac
deft vault
#

is the bug related to deathly prepull shit or nah ?

hollow escarp
#

who knows? assa doesn't use any prepull memes though

#

not anymore

deft vault
#

yeah i know but progging anduin as sub and i dont have unity every single pull

hybrid vale
#

i thought they made andy ezier

#

no need for cheap tricks

bleak sky
#

doesn't mean it isn't a shit fight still

fleet anchor
ebon notch
#

please

#

can we somehow use shadowdust with like a high haste build?

fleet anchor
#

lol

ebon notch
#

not high haste

#

high crit

#

so we get guaranteed mut crits

bleak sky
#

koji can you make doomblade work again

#

Just wait until triple legendary

yo - on lords if you cloak and then a green sludge hits you, do you still get cloud of carrion or does it prevent it?

ethics dont matter anymore

I want to kill the boss

slow marsh
#

andy ?

bleak sky
#

ye

slow marsh
#

Well you see the real ethical way to go about it imo

#

is you powder the shit out of the ghouls so they die faster

#

then everyone else has to focus the remnant

#

instead of pad

bleak sky
slow marsh
#

it sounds degen

#

because it is

Pad and pray they don't find outsilenceheathen

#

Shouldnt assa be a supreme burst the remnant down spec?

strange python
#

I mean anduin isn't really a DPS check anymore, the biggest issue on mythic is not fucking up mechanics, and then killing the abom

#

Sub is better at funneling abom damage

steel ridge
#

How much is the amp? 4x?

strange python
#

Sin has higher burst than sub, but sub still has better funnel damage. Though that's nothing compared to destro

gusty mirage
#

makes it so that you don't spawn upstairs with blasphemy when you were down in kingsmourne

#

or sorry

#

"lowers the chance" that it happens

hollow river
#

hmm i wonder what the duration will be

#

that's like the biggest hurdle for p1

gusty mirage
#

I forgot I have to be precise with my statements, so I don't get another "AKSHUALLY RYFIE IS ONLY 2789 NOT 2800 Nerdge "

hollow river
#

getting those add death timings correct

gusty mirage
#

I was in 2nd down group

Why does my sim feel so shrimp?

because you've got a bunch of cocktail sauce

fleet anchor
#

I got put in as a backup since someone couldn't make it this week and now I'm in jail

#

I will say the one slight glimmer about Sub on that fight is Prey on the Weak and Cheap Shot spam is fairly nice in P2 for add control. That is the extent of good things I have to say about the fight though. And I guess Shadowstep is nice sometimes. lol

gusty mirage
#

I have to hold back for blasphemy for that one idiot ranged sitting there on the opposite side of the platform and then shadowstep them

#

its very fun

fleet anchor
#

hah

#

I use it sometimes although our Blasphemy logic seems pretty orderly so it's not usually very hard

#

The fight is like oddly... really boring

subtle tundra
#

I need to shit

#

dink donk anyone want my anduin spot

#

I played too good and now I have to be in

Why is my gear so shit 💀💀

#

I had some questions so I went into dreamgrove

#

which is already cursed

#

and their faq is a literal chapterbook

#

haste breakpoints for casting filler spells based on covenant

vestal wren
#

sounds a bit too much

#

at that point it is usually better to refer to a guide

glass tulip
#

to be fair

#

the method guide was trash compared to the "faq" which is just a guide in itself

#

was basically, "hehe press convoke"

timid cloud
#

No one does it like Ravenholdt does…

Macroing Ambush to Mutilate only works with the use of a addon.
It comes with the downside that it often requires multiple key presss.

#

is the pre pull lege deadly shadows a thing for assa?

charred wraith
#

no, dont use it, its a loss

spice spire
#

!prepull

prisma monolithBOT
#

Assassination currently does not have any viable prepulls or weapon swaps. Due to the value of vanish, Deathly Shadows is not worth using for the combo points. Sylvanas daggers are much weaker than on subtlety, and therefore also makes weapon swapping not desireable. The best we can do is use Marked for Death about 25 seconds before a pull. This is a very minor gain.

didn't know that was a frequent question

pearl ingot
#

yo guys, how do you use ur cloak on m dausegne? do you hold it for sketchy situations, or are u using it as often as possible?

celest marlin
#

so in aoe situation m+ / raid , do i spam Crimson or what?

hollow river
hollow river
#

We maintain the DoT of CT we don’t spam it

celest marlin
#

so i put more stuff on multiple targets in mean time or pick big add and nuke him ?

hollow river
#

Unless you vendetta something

pearl ingot
hollow river
#

Then you have to train that target mostly, but can still spread a couple extra bleeds during

unborn ruin
#

For necro m+ vigor or Ds? Feel like I’m missing a ton of CPs running vigor when I’m chucking bone shards

zinc frost
#

Run DS in keys

#

As necro

unborn ruin
#

On a three mob pull should I start overwriting empowered garrotes at 6 or 12 seconds or something to stop the bleed from expiring on 2 targets

subtle tundra
#

nope, you should have ruptures rolling

#

energy wont be an issue

unborn ruin
#

I was more thinking that the 80% extra damage vs having 1 of them drop for 6 seconds and 1 for 12 would be a damage loss

timid cloud
#

Every day we get asked about DS, at least once.

#

Did someone make a YouTuber saying it’s good…?

unborn ruin
#

Yeah guides typically say “vigor for M+”

@noble umbra might want to check your trinket order

#

The order matters

noble umbra
#

waot

#

really?

limber lion
#

Yes

noble umbra
#

lol wtf i never knew that

limber lion
#

It uses SGT first in your Top Gear

#

and IQD first in your Quick Sim

noble umbra
#

oh i see ofc

#

becus one sim is popping iqd on pull

#

opposed to the other having to hold it till after my vandetta/hero has worn off

#

thanks @limber lion

limber lion
#

:)

#

Actually, after looking into it, you should be using IQD on pull with Vendetta and SGT later on. There's some checks for IQD + Dps trinket combo, which is why they work kind of funny

#

Just use IQD with your Vend on pull

#

Even if SGT is your first trinket slot

#

learn somethin new every day

noble umbra
#

@limber lion alright thanks homie

sweet dawn
#

Can venth still take Marked for Death in dungeons or is vigor like.. needed? as well as subterfuge?

regal cloud
#

Don't u always play mfd as venth?

sweet dawn
#

That's what I was thinking

#

But my smooth brain can't have a personal thought of its own

vestal wren
#

mfd works well in dungeons

bleak sky
#

Yep mfd in keys

@limber lion ping me if you update the weakaura ❤️

ebon notch
#

yo cev how do i add a socket to a specific item in raidbots

limber lion
ebon notch
#

yeah im doing some sus shit so i wanted to know what the line was for a gem

#

i saw i can add a specific type of gem but idk which would be best so id rather just add the socket

limber lion
#

Just slap this after the ring line:
,bonus_id=6652/7580/7749/7798/3151/6646

#

So for the 272 AA ring it would be:
finger1=",id=134542,enchant_id=6164,bonus_id=6652/7580/7749/7798/3151/6646"

ebon notch
#

ah yeah

#

ill just add that

#

after my 272 aa ring

#

ty tho

limber lion
#

Just an example :)

ebon notch
#

🙂

#

im testing converting a boe in catalyst

#

and moving unity to chest

#

since chest is my lowest ilvl

limber lion
#

I would just do that in Top Gear

limber lion
#

You can add catalyst items and all unities there and go through everything

#

Don't need to add separate sockets by changing the strings or anything either, just use the socket-add feature of Top gear

ebon notch
#

i wanted to make sure it was on the helm just in case

limber lion
ebon notch
#

just in case?

#

🤷‍♂️

limber lion
#

16 crit is 16 crit

#

regardless whether it's on the helm or the neck

ebon notch
#

true

tame sigil
#

Hmm the logs seems to be fairly equal, what's preferred to run on lihivum on Mythic, Sub or Assa?

#

I'm guessing Sub can pop more throughout the fight but Assa is better at downing the big adds fast?

limber lion
#

Either is fine

#

Play the spec you like more and perform better on

tame sigil
#

Any tips for running Assa on it? 🙂

odd heath
#

Lol

limber lion
#

However, if that does not work, using cds on the add is completely fine in terms of progression

#

It'll be less boss damage and overall damage, but it can help your team progress further.

tame sigil
#

Thats awesome, thanks for the tips!

strange python
#

If your guild wants you to save all CDs for protoform you may want to play sub just to not be so annoyed

gusty mirage
#

It’s not that annoying

#

You’re just delaying CDs like 20s max

strange python
#

Maybe I'm just salty

ebon notch
#

its more like

#

the add dies half way through vendetta

#

and it fucks subsequent casts

gusty mirage
#

How

strange python
#

The longer you wait to CD the longer until you can get value from duskwalkers, too.

ebon notch
#

thats what cev said

gusty mirage
#

How does it fuck subsequent casts though

ebon notch
#

he said he missed a cast when he delayed for the add

strange python
#

The longer your CDs just sit there the less value you get from leggos

gusty mirage
#

The 20-30s of holding for first synthesize caused him to miss a cast?

#

Damn colour blasts idk

ebon notch
#

@limber lion sry to tag you but i dont wanna put words in your mouth

#

unless ur into that idk Sussy

gusty mirage
#

For most people, especially on prog, IMO they should hold for first synthesize

#

Because if the add doesn’t die it’s a wipe

limber lion
#

Yeah, I didn't exactly lose out on casts by doing that, it's just that the timing gets pretty funky when you use cds on the adds.

gusty mirage
#

Yeah I’ll agree the timing does get weird af

limber lion
#

Using cds on the boss allows you to use cds on the boss twice between each intermission everytime, it's really, really good

#

Feels really nice

#

But sometimes your guild might need the extra damage on the adds and it is what it is

gusty mirage
#

And it could cause you to miss a cast if the timing is a bit off

#

Because you’ll end up holding because you’re close to another synth

#

And then you’ll parse a 7 like me and feel like shit

#

But the last time I killed it, it worked out pretty well

strange python
#

Without cache or earthbreakers you're gonna be sad trying to parse that fight anyways

ebon notch
#

So I only put some words in his mouth

#

Nice

hollow escarp
weak bane
# tame sigil Thats awesome, thanks for the tips!

everything cev said worked great for me. i played sub on first clear to send cooldowns on schematics, but on reclear i played sin sending cooldowns at start and it lined everything so much better. just need to sort your groups right for the first schematics

gusty mirage
#

There’s zero chance I’ll ever get to send CDs on pull

thin trout
#

anyone else still sitting at 252/259 daggers having evryething else on 278+

#

sure i havent done 8 mthics per week but for sure the first 4 weeks and now im just doing 4

gusty mirage
#

I have a 272 valor dagger and a 259 edge, and nowhere near 278 on everything else

#

And I’ve done 8 dungeons per week and full raid boxes, and I’ve even filled 3 pvp boxes on some weeks

#

I’m 274 equipped, still rocking the KT neck from last tier

odd heath
#

I got 2x 278 daggers, one from skolex and one from m+ vault

gusty mirage
#

I hate you 🙂

odd heath
#

But I love you

gusty mirage
#

Well then tell skolex to stop dropping that fucking cloak

#

Please

ebon notch
#

odd heath

hollow escarp
gusty mirage
#

Damn y’all are built diffy

limber lion
#

after you said

#

and Varas never specified

subtle tundra
#

i've had 29300 on pull

limber lion
#

#

it's like saying

subtle tundra
#

im checking each pull individually

hollow escarp
#

that dark blue background looks nice in discord

ebon notch
#

ye i was about to say

limber lion
#

wowee I hit 80k on Anduin

ebon notch
#

subtle tundra
#

odd heath
#

What's your ilvl @subtle tundra ?

subtle tundra
#

277

odd heath
#

I will check if I have higher envenoms

#

Im close to 279

limber lion
#

but the thing is

#

they're talking about Envenoms without using Sigil

hollow escarp
#

average is still 9k BRUH

odd heath
#

I don't even have 1 sigil :(

gusty mirage
hollow escarp
#

I don't have sigil either

gusty mirage
limber lion

gusty mirage
#

Upgrade the iqd and vendor the rest of the garbage

subtle tundra
#

also get a changeling

hollow escarp
#

I'm a trinket collector

I don’t want to

amanthul's

gusty mirage
#

How many max ilvl mydas talismans do you have?

hollow escarp
#

IQD 272 sims bad for me so not upgrading it yet

subtle tundra
#

maybe you have scuffed stats

#

and gives bad stats

hollow escarp
#

this set might make you mad @gusty mirage

#

shrouded suffocation, echoing blades, 5 legendaries

#

and obviously Heart of Azeroth

odd heath
#

I have one trinket that I never deleted

#

A titanforged, socketed arcanocrystal

#

On my boomie

#

Lol

gusty mirage
hollow escarp
#

I know you hate bfa peepoSHAKE

gusty mirage
#

I hate shadowlands significantly more than I hated bfa

#

Bfa had better dungeons

brazen zodiac
#

oxi <3

gusty mirage
#

Azerite traits were better than every piece of borrowed power that this shit expac has given us

#

And essences were chefkiss

odd heath
#

I liked bfa dungeons also

gusty mirage
#

The ONLY thing wrong with Azeroth gear was acquiring azerite gear

ebon notch
odd heath
#

Freehold, underrot and junkyard were fun

gusty mirage
#

I adored waycrest

#

It was one of my favorite dungeons

ebon notch
#

those fucking corridors man

odd heath
#

I liked waycrest

#

Hated kings rest

ebon notch
#

never felt claustrophobia before

gusty mirage
#

It was ass on sanguine weeks

#

But besides that

ebon notch
#

(from a game)

gusty mirage
#

BiS assa dungeon

odd heath
#

Workshop was really good also

#

Lots of 3-5 packs

gusty mirage
#

Triple shrouded, double ttk, and 1 clockwork heart

odd heath
#

Yes

#

Good times

gusty mirage
odd heath
#

Setup everything, blood of the enemy, boom

exotic pasture
gusty mirage
#

True true

#

Idk man I enjoyed bfa a lot more than I enjoy SL. And I was an aotc andy who just ran keys

#

Maybe that’s why

subtle tundra
#

GET REAL

subtle tundra
#

acquiring azerite armor was the single worst thing i have ever experienced

gusty mirage
subtle tundra
#

if the raid ones were bad

#

you were all up to rng

#

get unlucky, you cant compete

#

🙂 nice game!

gusty mirage
#

Ye that’s why I said it was the only shit part of the system

#

Still better than the systems we have now

zinc frost
#

Not to forget waiting to get your weekly box and get sweet f all

gusty mirage
#

Tier sets fixed that a bit

subtle tundra
gusty mirage
#

I mean you’re disagreeing with my opinion

#

So you can say no and “get real” and you’re not changing it

subtle tundra
#

yes

#

cry about it

gusty mirage
zinc frost
subtle tundra
#

yes it can happen

#

but compare bad vaults to bad chests

#

how often do they each happen

gusty mirage
#

Often enough to dislike both systems

subtle tundra
#

ah

#

so you dont like the game

gusty mirage
#

Which makes me wonder why we haven’t gotten a currency to be able to upgrade a 272 piece to 278

gusty mirage
#

What does that have to do with relying on a weekly vault to get a max ilvl item I want?

#

Curious what your angle is here

subtle tundra
#

and if you dont

#

you hav 272

#

which is slightly worse

#

but guaranteed

gusty mirage
#

Okay?

subtle tundra
#

gl getting high ilvl specific gear in bfa

burnt escarp
#

hey guys I am curious is deep stratagem good or is the go to marked for death? I do not have any set bonuses yet. relearning rogue again haha

subtle tundra
#

glad your boxes helped you

gusty mirage
#

Lmao so because the current system is better than the system was in bfa, it shouldn’t be improved upon at all?

#

You’re right, I should be super excited that we took a step in the right direction

zinc frost
burnt escarp
#

MFD?

zinc frost
#

Marked for death

limber lion
#

And when you get tier set, go venthyr MFD build

burnt escarp
#

oh ok even for m+?

limber lion
#

Sure

#

You can play Necrolord in m+ without tier set

gusty mirage
#

Also trying to bait me into a “gotcha” moment isn’t going to work Varas. Try again

burnt escarp
#

thank you

subtle tundra
#

you on something

gusty mirage
#

Yeah bro for sure

subtle tundra
#

dont even know what "gotcha moment" is

#

but sure

#

bfa was better surely

slow marsh
#

he meant the gacha moment

kindred heron
#

Hi! In the FAQ we say that vigor is the move for necro multi-target / cleave, but in the logs a lot of people are going DS for pantheon and lords. Is this one of those situations where the FAQ is outdated or is it one where all the best people are private logging w/ vigor?

subtle tundra
solid venture
#

any andy proggers? did you go nadjia or theo?

kindred heron
#

Also I'm seeing a lot of venthyr for pantheon on the logs which is weird - wondering if the consensus is still necro for this fight?

#

thx in advance

slow marsh
#

you wont do damage either way so just do whatever

subtle tundra
#

waste everyones time for 1k dps

#

lole

slow marsh
#

lords is better but ye what varas said

#

not worth it to still be 10th on the meters

fleet anchor
subtle tundra
#

get whispy to change!

gusty mirage

Crazy

#

Insane how words matter

subtle tundra

that literally means

bfa was better

#

than sl

gusty mirage
#

No

#

No it doesn’t

subtle tundra
#

but it does

gusty mirage
#

But it doesn’t

#

That’s your implication of reading that

subtle tundra
#

b-but it does?????????????????????

fleet anchor
#

Is it possible we can compromise and agree that they are both shit? 😄

subtle tundra
#

nah shadowlands good

zinc frost
#

We all gonna be dragon healers anyways

gusty mirage
#

I can hate something more than something else despite the first thing being objectively “better”

subtle tundra
#

BUT THAT LITERALLY MEANS ITS BETTER

gusty mirage
#

It’s almost as if my opinion is mine and you don’t have to agree with it

subtle tundra
#

NOT THATS ITS GOOD

#

you rate bfa 2/10 and sl 4/10

fleet anchor
#

I find very few good things to say about either BfA or SL if I'm honest. Both xpacs did have some positives but feel they largely have been super weak xpacs with poor live support from the devs.

subtle tundra
#

which is better

gusty mirage
#

Which is what you’ve been arguing at for the last 20 minutes

hollow river
gusty mirage
#

I like bfa dungeons more. I like azerite traits more. I think both expacs are garbage

subtle tundra
#

which is better

fleet anchor
#

BfA gets negative points for awful Azerite acquisition, the joke of Corruption pre-vendor, and apparently not being able to adjust Sub's class passive for 2 years.

subtle tundra
#

i literally stopped playing rogue bcs of corruption

fleet anchor
#

SL gets negative points for only having 2 major patches, and the ridiculous issues with Covenant swapping

ebon notch
#

just because he likes one more it doesnt mean its better

#

one could have the color red which he likes which would mean he wouldl ike it better

#

but that wouldnt mean that it is better

subtle tundra
#

MORE desireble

#

MORE

fleet anchor
#

If I could go back in time to the end of Legion, future me would have told past me that it was maybe a good time to take a break from the game 😛

gusty mirage
subtle tundra
#

im happy i played legion on private server and not retail lol

fleet anchor
#

Legion had its own problems

gusty mirage
#

I got jebaited by a ton of alt content, a great story, great dungeons, good raids, and all of the borrowed power being fixed

fleet anchor
#

But somehow is still way better than BfA and SL despite all the issues with legendaries and AP in the first half

gusty mirage
#

I missed all the terrible parts of legion

#

and they got me

#

they got my money for the last 4 years

fleet anchor
#

I think the issue was that while Legion had a lot of flaws initially, at least they fixed them in enough time to have a lot of "good" xpac time towards the end

#

But they were way more sluggish/consistent with those problems in BfA

#

Making mistakes like Corruption initially in the final patch despite like 4 years of lessons learned about acquisition of borrowed power

#

RIP

ebon notch
#

the other thing with legion was

#

it just had so much fucking content

#

raids were what

#

every 3 months?

fleet anchor
#

Yeah that's true

subtle tundra
#

i think 3 months would be too often

#

like 5 months would be ideal for me

ebon notch
#

dont get me wrong i burnt out

#

but like

#

it was from having too much fun

#

and doing my degree at the same time

subtle tundra
#

i like just chilling

#

with bis gear

#

doing keys

#

parsing in raid

#

that wouldnt happen with 3 months

fleet anchor
#

There was very little farm in Legion

#

For sure

ebon notch
#

yeah tbh

#

legion release period was so much better

#

having to mentally prepare myself for 8 years of farm is not fun

#

or if i join a new guild knowing i have to sit there on farm instead of proving myself on prog is painful

#

doing a trial on farm is honestly way more cringe than doing it on prog

fleet anchor
#

Like we were around US 100 range for Gul'dan

#

Was about 6 weeks before ToS opened up

limber lion
#

I thoroughly enjoyed Legion, except for titanforging and poison bomb

fleet anchor
#

KJ we were US 80 and also 6 weeks until Argus opened

limber lion
#

Everything else was really good imo

fleet anchor
#

So the timeline was super tight

limber lion
#

Assa was fun, Sub was fun

#

Poison bomb was ass, titanforging was ass

fleet anchor
#

We had an Outlaw enjoyer in our guild but it was a special person 😛

ebon notch
#

was it guy

limber lion
#

I remember getting a fully titanforged Eye of Command from the very last weekly box in legion before bfa started

fleet anchor
#

Titanforging was dumb yeah

limber lion
#

985 item level btw

#

big number good

gray crest
#

I didn't like titan forging, however I got my rogue super geared solely through titan forging in antorus. Basically only did heroic at that point and was mythic geared. Allowed me to join a guild in mythic argus prog

fleet anchor
#

Lucking into that Titanforged WQ stat stick and having it be BiS for 90% of the tier 🤣

main solar
#

the proc rate on poison bomb in legion sucked, but damn did it feel good when it did in a pack of mobs.

limber lion
#

I had a friend who got a 980 Unstable Arcanocrystal from the vendor

#

very interesting way of gearing for sure

fleet anchor
#

lol

limber lion
#

just luck it out

#

910 base item, just RNG your way into 80 ilvls

limber lion
#

Not sure why they made it into a talent

#

very boring

trim cairn
#

Could just make it baseline though

#

The sound it makes when it procs is value enough

#

What's that?

ebon notch
limber lion
#

no

#

rygalon

#

never heard of

ebon notch
#

bro the guys in my guild cant pronounce shit

#

ive heard so many variations of the boss its broken me

#

ryjelon

#

rygeleon

vestal wren
ebon notch
#

rygalon

vestal wren
#

esp. due to tianforging

#

i remember a lot of appeal from people to no-life grind it back then
to get insane gear before even going into mythic

#

the clear downside was that people did not need stuff from mythic gear wise due to that

tidal gorge
#

People didn't play m+ a lot more, they played maw of souls a lot more though 😛

vestal wren
#

but it is interessting to compare to current m+ when people complain that it is not a "good gearing path"

#

because inherently titan forging solves this issue for m+

tidal gorge
#

M+ itemization is an interesting problem. Right now the most frustrating thing is no real targetability. Phial might take you 5 runs or 50 runs based on luck of the draw. But if you could target only the pieces you want with valor or something, would it mostly die off? I personally don't gaf about running high keys like some people do

subtle tundra
#

ok you do 50 runs for phial

#

in legion you did 200 for a titanforge

tidal gorge
#

I'm not defending that either, that was garbage lol

subtle tundra
#

50 and guaranteed max ilvl-6

ebon notch
#

the only benefit of titanforging was that there was actually a chance to get an upgrade from pushing higher keys

vast loom
#

i think right now m+ is in a good spot with the current version of vault, unless you are pushing into last 3 mythic very early in the tier m+ is where you are getting a large portion of your gear until you can get a suitable amount of mythic on farm

vestal wren
#

@subtle tundra true, i think a more deterministic system like valor is better

vast loom
#

but specific items are awful to farm

vestal wren
#

for titanforging, you basically could fish for higher forges long term

#

this gives you more incentives to run m+ more

subtle tundra
vast loom
#

yeah awful now awful then

vestal wren
#

i think m+ runners atm are often at a point they can't rly get a upgrade from m+ anymore

bleak sky
#

hoping that vault gives you max level daggers/trinkets

vast loom
#

i think thats okay? if you are able to get to that point early because you do it a lot isnt that a good thing?

tidal gorge
#

The biggest problem I had with titanforging was also the lack of control. The chance of you getting a 985 or whatever was small, but the chance of you getting a 985 of the item you actually wanted was like winning the freakin lottery

vestal wren
#

i mean vault is like titanforging

#

just that you only get a chance once per week

tidal gorge
#

True. One of my ideas way back was that titanforges would be tokens instead and you could apply them to an item. So over time your gear would get more and more titanforged

bleak sky
#

idk I don't think this is okay

#

yeah run +28 last season at the end of the patch with not the literal best gear you can

#

because you can't get it from anywhere else other than vault

vestal wren
vast loom
#

i wonder if too much control could be "unfun" like if everyweek you could walk to your vault click on your BIS drop would that lead to just every Rogue walking in and clicking bis weapon for 2 weeks then never needing a weapon the rest of the tier. but also with no control it feels awful being at the end of the tier still waiting for the 278 phial. i feel like there is a middle ground of maybe being able to buy the upgradable versions of items but only getting the 278 version out of RNG

hollow escarp
vestal wren
#

I think the rpg concept is fun if you get upgrades from raids/etc

#

but high power level items do not feel good if they are heavily locked behind rng

vast loom
#

yeah maybe i could see a token that can turn a max upgraded item into the full mythic version?

tidal gorge
#

One nice improvement idea I saw for vault was the ability to "bank" an item in the case that you get more than one good item the same week. The banked item would show up the next week, either in a separate slot specifically for that purpose or taking up one of your regular slots

vestal wren
#

and this was shows multiple times in the past xpacs:

  • Legion: Legendary item drops at the start of the xpac
  • BfA: Azerite armor acquisition
  • BfA: Corruption
  • SL: Domination sockets
  • SL: Sylvanas dagger
  • SL: Tier set acquisition
vast loom
#

I feel like tier set is solved with CC, its just CC was implemented too late

bleak sky
#

cc is good

subtle tundra
#

didnt ion say he likes that sylv dagger is still relevant

bleak sky
vast loom
#

he said its okay at best, but in general its negative feedback when previous tier items are good next tier

#

but he said he doesnt want another arcanocrystal like situation

#

i think in general its fine but atleast give us a non rng way to acquire old items. it would be sick if old tiers just dropped currency to go buy that tiers stuff might even get people running it for transmog if you can just buy the shit oyu want

prime robin
#

on cleave fights like prototype. im guessing when ur in ur vend window. you fully focus reapplying on ur main target - coz i virtually have no free space to apply a bleed on a 2nd target due to the speed bleeds tick down ? thanks (only crimson tempest ofc which gets applied naturally).

vestal wren
#

ion kind of contradicted himself in the interview

silent remnant
#

guys whats the opener with 4p and ct?

vestal wren
#

with first saying that people shouldn't feel obligated to go back to old content and then stating that stuff like sylvanas dagger is fine

solid venture
#

who said envenom cant do big dam

limber lion
#

is 33k supposed to be a big number or something

#

doesn't sound very big to me

subtle tundra
#

im deep in that jailussy rn

solid venture
#

rogue life

slow marsh
#

i wonder how much evis does to remnant

subtle tundra
#

evis isnt a big dmg ability either lol

slow marsh
#

agree but its bigger than env

subtle tundra
#

i dont think ive done 30k with evis

limber lion
#

I'm pretty sure Envenom does more damage than Eviscerate

slow marsh
#

oh well maybe tbh i stopped playing with numbers a long time ago so i have no clue what buttons do damage

limber lion
#

But 30k Envenoms aren't really exciting to me when I do 90k bites with my 250 ilvl Feral

trim cairn
#

I don't think they can make Evis do big hits anymore without reworking Sub

#

Despite having a mastery that boosts finishers

slow marsh
#

im prolly just getting jebaited by evis damage numbers in overall because they probably just have so many more casts

limber lion
#

Yeh

vestal wren
slow marsh
#

ok cool well im glad i'm not crazy

#

granted its not by much

trim cairn
#

That's with echoing reprimand tho

#

So prolly 7cp + 5% damage increase from ds

#

compared to 5cp

limber lion
#

Yeah on our Jailer Push used Evis 116 times compared to my 34 Envenoms

#

lol

#

But yeah, Evis also has its shadow portion that's why it's quite a bit more

trim cairn
#

That made me curious about how much the Envenom buff contributes to dps

limber lion
#

A lot

trim cairn
#

So I hover over Envenom and then Deadly Poison only to notice that DP has 150% chance to apply?

#

Just a tooltip error?

limber lion
#

tooltips are bad

#

what's new

slim wagon
#

at how many targets do we drop snd in m+ as assa? for some reason I always keep it up even in large pulls. Is that in faq and I missed it?

limber lion
#

Envenom increases poison application change by 30%

trim cairn
#

And here I thought they sneakily added a covert multistrike to deadly poison

limber lion
#

You always maintain SnD

#

on 1 target

#

and on 297 targets

subtle tundra
#

WHAT ABOUT 3 targets

balmy condor
limber lion
slim wagon
#

then my habit of keeping snd up was correct without thinking about it

subtle tundra
#

its not like pressing envenom is accidental

limber lion
#

if you pull the entire DoS instance, including Hakkar room, the entire Mechagnome section and Ardenweald together

#

Then you can probably drop your SnD

subtle tundra
#

actually

balmy condor
#

jar op

subtle tundra
#

thats less than 297

limber lion
#

It is yes

#

But I'll make an exception

subtle tundra
#

so you lied?

how big is windfury for sin?

vestal wren

2% or so

limber lion

it's pretty similar for both

slim wagon
#

I've been removed from my guild's wf group cause I'm the one the doesnt whine about it 😦

as long as they didnt replace you for dh thats fine

that 0.3% gain is massive yeah for sure

scarlet jacinth

Hello everyone, i have a noob question. Is the 4 piece tier set worth it? I am losing 200 versatility and for a rogue being squishy it's making me rethink. The 4 piece bonus being like an exsanguinate i guess? Since my legendary is my shoulders and belt. That leaves me only chest and gloves as option.

odd heath
#

Around 20% increase in dps iirc

subtle tundra
#

uh, are you talking about pvp?xd

scarlet jacinth
#

20%? that is nice lol. Is losing 200 versatility ok?

#

Yeah pvp!

subtle tundra
#

lol

odd heath
#

Oh, pvp is another beast

subtle tundra
#

you should mention that

#

xd

#

but still should worth it

#

4pc

#

is really strong

scarlet jacinth
#

Yeah in rated pvp lol

odd heath
#

But there are I think 3 pieces with versa on it

#

Head shoulders and legs

tidal gorge
#

It is still a large amount of burst. One of my guild's tanks was complaining about double sin rogue burst while getting 1800 for the mog

scarlet jacinth
#

I already have two pieces. But since my legendary are my shoulder and belt, it leaves me only chest and gloves. And neither have versatility for tier (Assassination)

#

My concern is how much will that affect my survibility

subtle tundra
#

you should ask in #pvp

#

but pretty sure 4pc is worth it

gusty mirage
#

focus on getting helm, pants, and shoulders as they have vers on them

#

and then probably go gloves and toss unity on chest

scarlet jacinth

Guild is having issues on the 2nd intermission of Halondrus. Anybody know if you’re able to “solo” the entire intermission as a rogue or have any tips on good timings?

Currently assigned to 2nd set of bombs. Partner picks it up last second, we push dps to skip reclaim, he drops it, and I pick it up as late as possible when the gate opens.

Unfortunately after that things fall apart with everybody else in the guild getting booped off or dying, so I don’t know for certain if I’m able to make it the whole way, dropping, cloaking debuff off, and carrying again.

tidal gorge
glass tulip
#

it does work

#

sounds like a bomb just exploded lol, usually the debuff from picking it up a 2nd time will kill you by doing about 60-70k

ebon notch
#

you can only hold it the duration of cloak

glass tulip
#

Cloaking doesn't clear your debuff, just negates the damage while cloak is active

ebon notch
#

ye

glass tulip
#

ye

tidal gorge
#

Huh, then it must have bugged out to let me hold it the entire duration until that point 😂

#

Wasn't hard to just trade it mid intermission either though, so we do that barring an emergency

glass tulip
#

yeah not that bad, we mostly traded going into intermissions, had 1 person grab it before the 1st knock, run way up ahead and then the other person grabs it to bring it to the next room

@limber lion to sim panth specifically, would you recommend 4t, 2m, with enemy_initial_health_percentage=50 put in? thx in advance
