Yep
I tried it a couple times and then stopped
It feels so shit not having things for lust lmao
You’re like alright potting for my maintenance rotation sick
I did successfully get my CDs reassigned to remmy though instead of second monster though
So that is good
Andy dies tonight 
We do lords first for sure
Lords probably dies in what? 30-40 pulls?
Something like that, and less if you have gigachad healers who won't be floor pov on swarms
True true
Then we suffer on rygelon
For about 100 lmao
Then jailer for I’m not even going to bother guessing
300? 400?

I think the curve of lords is how well you can bait purple, ranged can manage green, and not dying to swarm
At least you get to live out the necro dream for a bit
Trueeeee
Unity, one of our friend guilds on Ragnaros took over 500 
Also thx for the input, but ya looks like there’s no ez solution for anduin, CDs just kinda suck 😦

Yeah pre nerf adds were kinda worth
Now it’s just not
Slap a kidney on the add and do your thing lmao
Let the real dps do things
Ye I kidney 2nd and 4th to make sure they die
Prey is giga for making sure they melt
If you feel really cool you break the trap, kick, then kidney
Might switch to IB
But get clowned when you miss the kick lol
I did it once on accident cuz I fat fingered kick and it was on CD when I broke
Well mine isnt necessary at all, I was trying to be fancy and greed an extra 4 seconds on the cc chain by myself
Yeah I don’t bother unless a cast is about to go off
I figured I’m there for a participation trophy anyway
We had a pull last week where I died cuz no one broke me out of kingsmourne and I missed all of intermission
And they didn’t miss a beat lol
I voted for Grimrail and most likely won't be playing on 9.2.5 you're welcome

guys im currently checking logs on Mythic Lords and I see that people are pretty 50/50 on choosing Marileth and Heirmir, which one should be go to?
both is fine, go with what you like more
so diff is really low, got it. Thank you c;
heyho, should i use shiv on CD? and when to use envenom?
i'm just learning this spec and im really not sure when to use both
Shiv on cooldown unless you are planning to remove a soon to be enrage
envenom if target is ruptured, garroted, poisoned, and they won't fall off
so basically envenom is my overflow if i can effort it
Got to 1700 
also if your SnD is about to fall off never want to recast SnD if you can help it
does gemstones line up with burn?

Isn't potw better since your whole guild gets buffed with it (ik it's worse for personal damage)
it's all a race to stay above the tanks bro

Just pad your crimson tempest 
Why is nadja being used on mythic halondrus over theotar? I sim light movement and theo still wins out
lots of movement on hala
That seems like a fight where u rly have to move
Idk if the motes were nerfed or not
But it used to be a wipe if 1 hits boss
Yeah still is a 1-shot, fair
Theo seems like it could make u wanna stand in shade when u could preemptively soak motes
When halondrus now has no dps check at all afaik

yeah
they murdered the crab
tanks don't even have to hit every mote with beam anymore
you just phase it
dont worry they murdered rygelon aswell
skip said they killed it 2nd pull this week, their best was like 20% before

I wish they'd murder me
wait what
from my knowlage similar to how it works with same fraction raiding atm
main problem atm seems atm communication as friends list/guilds don't seem to work well with cross fraction
ayo? 🤨 📸

🚨 📣 THE FBI IS SURROUNDING YOUR LOCATION. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RUN. WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED SO COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP AND LAY ON THE GROUND
please surrender your 278 daggies, I need one, thanks
I'm still rocking 265-252 
any fix for a bug where obedience isnt giving cdr
!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
Cachefolder inWoW/retail) - Unequip the Legendary and equip it again
- Change Soulbinds/Covenant
To prevent this issue in the future:
- Make sure to avoid putting two different unity legendaries on different gear sets. If you swap saved gear sets with different unities, it will break.
sweet reequipping fixed, tyty
asking the wrong dude my guy
I got a couple extra 262 valor ones
and I cba to farm the valor to upgrade them
is that good enough
you are good enough 
does cevs 4p bleed profile only work in vendetta or does it work in and out in with pandemic
Everywhere
thanks
3rd weeks of cloak/belt /ring in vault 
oh you have the same problem I'm having
although I snagged a 278 phial 4 weeks ago
so I can't be too upset
Ey guys, about Crimsom Tempest and Envenom, what its the prio?
Envenom when Shiv its working 100% secure, but about other ways
how works
yeah i wonder too

daz crazy man
im not trying to be rude by the way im just baked out of my tree and cant care to find a different way to word.
Does anyone have a weak Aura to make a Vendetta timer pop up when its around 10 seconds left to remind me to start getting ready to re-apply rupture etc at 3 seconds and then disappear when Vendetta is back on CD? I cant figure out how :v
😉

bless u
This will help my ape-like short term memory as I sit there thinking "wait are these vendetta bleeds or no"
oh shit
HBD oxi!
happy birthday you sexy beast holy
@gusty mirage ty mate
I wish I would've been born the same time as you so I can maximize my time on Earth with you friend ❤️
another year, another inch to the cock

damn you trying to be all cute and I'm acting degenerate
wow thats one big cock
hes gona kill some one

thanks guys 
yes
I mean they call him tri-pod Ceverion for a reason

@gusty mirage how's andy
dies tonight I think
I'm no longer on p2 intermission monstrous soul duty
so I can go back to playing sin

pog
D
poggie
u got this gamer
I was given the green light to stick remnant
cuz we're lacking on boss damage
he's a smidgen too high going into p3
inbefore you do worse because your not a slave gamer.
I mean parse % I will
cuz there's like
5 public parses for sin
but damage wise I'm head and shoulders better at sin
my sub is sus as fuck
I was doing so bad on Anduin I felt like I had 'Andy' painted on the bottom of my shoe
ahh yes sin parses right now
lemme get you the stats from our best pull last night

how the fuck does someone parse in the 45th percentile of 3
because %tile is iirc relative to best in the category
nvm, it is just your position more or less
thats not how percentiles work
not sure
Who would of thought assassins cant math
It does not work like that.
yeah percentiles would be where you rank out of the # of parses
so like if there's 3 now, I kill it, there's 4
Theres 5
You can do 1 dps less than the r1 and parse a fat grey 0 if you two are the only two out there.,
overall %tile def. is based on individual logs
Go to the actual page
is only last 2 weeks
Theres 5
not sure how item level works, never rly looked at the metric
I hope the website burns down
why the fuck does the damage page only show last 2 weeks
well, actually "parse" refers to your ranking among the best ranked players the past 2 weeks
people just use the parse term indifferently to ranking
I hate it here
yeh
so the goal is to wait 2 weeks
and then try to beat cev

I just have to find like 3-5k dps in every fight

it's just to show you more accurate information from the past 2 weeks instead of comparing yourself to people who've killed it months ago
won't need that for andy, just slam it down

Its such good all star points pad to kill andy as sin

hey that neck is decent
the log page bro
if only I was that proactive about learning how to be a better rogue
hey i use that neck too
i put it on "print"
were twins
yeah I know but you still already had it in chamber
when I wrote that msg
then you also have to press the reply button
yea I was going to link the necklace after I said I don't want the andy neck
lmao
so I already had it screenshotted
fastest paster in the west
that's not the only thing I'm fast at
I'm fast at getting parried on both mutilates on anduin
and slamming my keyboard
and screaming fuck
lol
hbd Oxi @gusty mirage
on jailer pulls I wait 1s for him to turn to smack azeroth
thanks ram
I literally hug the back of the boss until barrier
so my muti doesnt parry
I once had both serrated bone spikes get parried on lords of dread opener
I've found that standing under his skirt isn't "behind" him
so I stand max melee range
I'm assuming the dude parries with his giant donger or something
idk
kinda sucks nothing happens for melee first 4min here
so im just waiting for others to stop dying
anyone else getting dead globals on jailer
to be fair
a mere dagger cannot penetrate a cock of that size
Are u guys still doin 6day raid

no
i told them to delay raid to thurs instead of today
but they ignored me
so now everyone is burnt out their fucking heads
wdym dead globals? we have no issues in our raid
Phial get nerf again?
i don't think they changed anything
its as if i got parried but im behind the boss
the global literally just fails
yeah I had that in heroic, standing at max range fixed it
the hitbox on that boss is giga fucked
ok i try
so he gives up green and then tries to enforce the rules? 
he is not wrong tho ^^

Green means you ignore the rules and are the problem
Cev literally dying for our sins
GREAT PUN BUDDY
This Druid always had a problem with me pointing out the entrance/exit to any room I was in. I knew it wouldn't work out with her so I showed her the door.
She had also told me to buy a gallon of milk, and if they had bread to buy 3. So I didn't know why she was upset when I came home with 3 gallons of milk.
I even told her they had bread, women are strange and does anyone prefer NL over Ven in keys?
#off-topic <-
I prefer Necrolord in all content
no way how could that be possible

on lords of dread, is anyone else having to press SnD more than once? I'm finding it hard to keep it refreshed via envenoms alone
it's ok to let crimson tempest drop to get envenoms in to refresh slice n dice
also remember to envenom your friends in among us phase just tell them it;s for a maintenance buff 
I did bonespike a few for similar reasons :p ty - think I was really busy on trying to keep up CT
Does anyone at all have the most recent PI % gain lass sheet?

!cache
Cache of Acquired Treasures usage:
Axe is always the strongest weapon.
Note: The Weapon rotates every 12 seconds in the order Sword -> Axe -> Wand
practising the opener in a dummy is awful with first sigil
!snapshot
Explanation of snapshotting
Bleeds update their tick rate dynamically, which means that if you get a haste proc (which increases our tick rate) from somewhere during the encounter (ie. Flagellation, Euphoria), the bleeds would automatically tick faster, but the second your haste goes back to normal, the tick rate goes back down as well.
Snapshotting refers to getting that haste proc, reapplying bleeds at the faster tick rate, but instead of the bleeds going back to a slower tick rate when your haste drops, they would continue ticking at a faster rate until they expire or are reapplied.
why are you 280
pretty good gear
is it surprising that so'leahs tech 272/sigil 252 is simming higher than so'leahs tech 272/cache 265 in both single target and dungeon slice?
I thought the cache was supposed to be good, esp at a higher ilvl
cache was oversimming for a while
Its still decent just less decent
not sure how much in an actualk number
it proc'd 2 times with axe in quick sim, 5 min patchwork
dang, was so excited to get it last night. O well, at least I wont have to worry about timing it for axe

what's the best trinket combo for lords?
phial/sigil seems to what the big hitters are using https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/rankings/29#class=Rogue&spec=Assassination&boss=2543&difficulty=4
yeah i have 272 phial, 278 sigil, 278cache w/leech, 272 tirathons, and 272 soleigh, wasn't sure if a 2min trinket lines up best or not? don't have my fcm lvled up yet :p
looking at teh trink breakdown, cache is 3rd most used
ye i guess it could be kinda troll if it doesnt line up
I just checked the Heroic and Mythic logs for Assassination and I see pretty much everybody using Crimson Tempest. Is that the highest preforming level 50 talent for Speculcher now or are they doing some padding nonsense? I only came back to the game like 3-4 weeks ago.
goddamn
I noticed that too, even on pure single target fights
where you would think poison bomb would be better
Yeah. I was wondering if the 4pc accelerates the bleed damage to do overall higher than just Poison Bomb or something.
CT is better in all situations now with the tier set
Alright, thank you!

for venthyr they take crimson tempest in everything, poison bomb is better in pure single target for necrolord
ty, thought it might be a cov deal
when snapshotting at the end of vendetta. i should wait until garrote/rupture basically fall off vs refreshing right when the pandemic window hits right after vendetta ends? will refreshing in pandemic window post vendetta kill the snapshot effect?
!fuu
Fuus Shadowlands evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/uxr1tz
You want to reapply a Rupture when Vendetta has 3s left, if your Rupture duration is 8s or less.
Garrote:
You want to reapply Garrote, when Vendetta has 3s or less, if your Garrote duration is 7s or less.
Crimson Tempest:
We do not want to forcefully reapply CT towards the end of Vendetta. Only reapply CT, if it lines up naturally within its pandemic range.``` this is from the pin
That seems way too complicated for me. I'm just gonna stick with NF and pray Dragonflight brings back a simple no-brain rotation
NF does the same thing
just no MFD
top picking is vend sepsis shiv instead of flag rup mfd ct vend shiv, bottom image remains the same
@balmy condor i was hearing stuff about shiv on cd instead of always syncing with vendetta is that real tech
yeah
i saw someone link a cev comment a few days ago
and i hadnt heard about it idk when it even happened
its different from even last season because at least then we had the 12s hold thing
but it makes sense because a decent amount of our power got tossed into shiv
😮
you only hold to make it line up with vanish + vend

doesnt it usually get a use during vend anyway even when slamming onCD?
yep
why r 63% of assass rogues running Plague Deviser over Hemiir for mythic lords, is deviser better than hemiir for that fight?
i am trying to find why it is used over hemiir but i cannot find the buff you get from marileth in logs
You mean Kevin’s oozeling?
i see kevins oozling but i am curious about the humanoid buff, why use marileth of hemiir for lords on mythic?
what makes marileth better from 63% to the opposite 36%
A. Perception.
B. Gemstones doesn’t line up with the burn phase of lords
wdym by perception?
@spice spire
i looked and didnt see a debuff either i looked for both buffs and debuffs
I mean I think he means there probably isn't that massive of a difference but one is already more popular and people feel that lining up the damage taken debuff with amp phases is probably better. It's likely marginally better but it's not gonna make or break either way
I mean I think Kevin is better for that fight since there isn’t a gemstones line up
Essentially what Koji said
so just run kevin then, i was curious if there was an "essential" difference to run 1 or the other
The max parse is almost identical and the average is slightly higher for Bonesmith but nothing really significant from a sample size perspective
So just play whatever you want
ive only ran hemiir, i ran hemiir for pantheon
but ig i can run half the raid night as hemiir and half the raid night as plauge and see
roll d20 pls

Not letting SnD drop is huge eh? Even in M+?
Finding myself getting caught up so much in aoe that I dont envenom enough and SnD drops.
Thats huge eh? Like in a bad way lol
yes it's bad, please fix 🙂
SnD dropping as Sin is bad, since we have a passive to prevent that
Your display pic destroys my brain
How many targets do you use mutilate over fon when vendetta flagalation is up.
I know we use fon on 3 targets now, but I feel like combo points are more important when vendetta flag is up and mutilate more consistent for combo points.
Doesn’t change the logic
Hahaha fon
What do you want? Fan of nives, obviously
i see what you did there
@subtle tundra I noticed you never use the FoK conduit even on Fortified? Is the extra 22% poison damage on main target really worth more?
hey, there was a bug were when you had 2 assa rogue in the raid only the first one casting shiv was getting the 2p buff is this still in or fixed
There was and it got fixed
cool ty
Pog st
Anyone know if it's possible to squeeze more DPS from this?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/qtjBCzqafiD8SrnkwZTzpc
I think that's BIS(everything but mythic raiding). 
Get 272 hands babe
I think it increases the damage they take, no matter where that damage comes from
Not the damage that you do
Yes it's all damage
oh hell yea
on LOD, does your SBS get removed after coming back from Among us phase?

General Question: when i roll versa on my Theotar Tea.. isnt that good in the end?
It directly transforms in 3% more dmg for everything i do
Meaning: If 3% haste doesnt equal 3% more dmg, versa is even better than haste
good theory, but I believe that is not how it actually works out
you can sim the teas to see which one is best for you
damn the theorycrafters are in SHAMBLES
OMG i just got my first score in weeks omg 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳
i play m+ for hours a day and finally we timed something
30 what?
29 dos
weak
i guess that's impressive
Not even 30 lol gitgud
Jk gratz
Let me know when the assassination 30 is I got balloons and champagne waiting 🥳
sorry to inform your varas but that guy is working against you!!
fuck fuck fuck imposter
probably a plaguefall
if we get it before i get comfortable on monkerman
we got 30 top so i dont think thats it chief
It’s free
Another general question, is sin fairly low APM? I noticed after the last few raids my hand is starting to hurt from raiding (playing frost DK) I'm thinking about swapping to a lower apm spec. I think sub and combat are pretty high apm iirc
For st, i find it very low APM, but not at all for 3/4 targets
Hmm okay
I enjoy melee, but I think I need something slower to play, I don't have the gamer hands of my youth
plays Necro Frost Mage

I mean I do

that's good
yeah not for me
took liquid almost 4 hours to learn p4
how fucfking long is it gonna take my guild
4 hours minimum encourage your guildmates to be as diligent as liquid 🙂
hmmm, for livihum mythic, is it prefered to not play assa? Seems pretty wasteful to pop CD's on the synthezise, only to have like 10-15 sec uptime on vendetta and no big bleeds after
I tough it never was
or how do you guys do it
less consistent
Rip
send it on pull and blame other dps for not holding
it really just depends on your team, for prog if you arnt killing add for synthesize it is worth holding there but long term you would not want to do that
Mythic Lihuvim is going to be whatever is best interest of the guild, I see some logs with all vendetta on Boss and oher's with it on the Schematic
True, but for early prog and me getting yelled at for not holding - id guess im better off playing sub?
play what ever you are more comfy on tbh, if you have sub prepped go for it
at worst you try it, and you dont like it
Yes! I totally forgot about that 
Anyone know the script that I should copy+paste to raidbot to see which Theo buff and consumables are the best for me?
might do that to play a little on keys
but im not seli to try that in ST fights
Feels nice on SIngle target, also the person was looking for low APM
I bet it does, i remember using it on CN
Thanks!
Can someone help me realize what happened here?
I chose crit/mast enchants/gems and the difference in simmed DPS is ~160, though I didn't change anything.
Try trinket order, I believe top one is used first always
^
Didn't think about that.
Thought that sims are always showing the highest DPS no matter which trinket is where. Good to know!
Sim usually will reorder them to be optimal so not sure, but that is a specific thing around double on use that can be confusing
You have right! I chose additional trinket, so the raidbot would mix them up and the outcome is favoring the different placement, even though it's not doing it itself. Curious...
Yes I was looking for low APM. Other option is to troll my guild and go arcane mage (2/3 officers threaten with gkick for arcane mage, tempted to test the theory)
is it a mythic raiding guild?
If it AOTC only you highly should be allowed to play whatever you want, honestly even if a Cutting Edge guild this late into the tier it really shouldn't matter what spec you play. When cross realm opens up no one going to tell me I need to switch covenant or spec for a boss, if they do i'm just going to find another guild t raid with
We dabble in mythic, but will only go like 4 or 5 bosses deep. They're obviously joking about gkicking it's a play what you want guild basically
It was more trolling the officers but I want to make sure it's something I enjoy so I don't get burnt out on bordem
Just hold. Problem solved
for us at least
we figured out who should hold and who should send on cd
such as sin and spriest
hunters and such carried the schematic so that some could hold cds
We had everyone send on schematic and still had issues sometimes
sounds like someone still wasn't sending then
Nah they were
Sometimes people get there late or make mistakes etc
We also progressed that fight at much lower gear levels than people are now
I just looked at the wowhead guide, do I understand it correctly that the bone spike gang is literally set it and forget it?
Throw one at any target that doesn't have one, Throw one if you are at 5 charges.
You should be able to throw a spike every 25-30 seconds in single target
also if the boss is super low send all charges while still maintaining basic rotation
Oh lol. I thought it was use it once for the dot and forget it rest of the fight
if playing heimir you want to send a few in gemstone windows
With the legendary we start with 5 charges might as well get some use out of them somehow 
If you are talking about Mythic Lords of Dread, I can't mythic raid till cross realm opens up. Arthas only has 1 mythic raiding guild and I think they only killed 2 bosses
oh everyone left?
I was doing mythic there in early 9.1 and there were still a few good ones
I guess I should continue to level sin. I went into torghast last night and died immediately as sin
torghast as sin sucks real hard
I was able to clear it as sub, gotta figure out what I was doing wrong
Oh thank goodness, I thought I was just incredibly bad
like 7 guilds transferred to various realms before sepulcher released
kyrian actually makes torghast easier, only place it makes sense to run kyr lol
damn.
gotcha

guys i havent played since bfa, i remember that crimson tempest wasnt worth on single target, but ive seen that ppl are casting crimson on singletarget now, is that because of the new shiv buff or are there other reasons? currently i dont have the 2 pieces bonus
2 piece, venythr snapshot tech benefits from the extra bleed ticking at an increased rate
not exactly true
we wouldn't be casting CT during Shiv windows outside of Vendetta if that was the case. The biggest reasoning is the 2p, not the 4p.
CT is already quite close to PB in terms of output as Venthyr and the 2p just pushes it over the edge
40% increased dam from poisons and bleeds for 9 seconds
big gains
hits harder than wet noodle envenoms
but my envenom crit for 41k that is a huge endorphin rush
thanks guys, another thing... why are ppl using old bfa battle potions? these are better than the new one? or just because of price/benefit
without blindside does assa ever use ambush?
As NF yes
night fae during sepsis i think
Yes man
Yes.
Still nothing compared to frost crits
41k is with doomblade for sure or on anduin remnant
no doomblade and i was on jailer
yo guys what's your marileth build? online guides kinda confuse me
@subtle tundra 
pog
that neck juicy
what do you mean?
finally aotc raider POGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Conduits / powers
Thank yoou 
anyone happen to know how good is 2 target boss sim for dreadlords?
decent or kinda bad?
It doesn't take the damage amp phases into account
that's true, but i'm not smart enough to do a custom sim XD
So it's decent but not great without an expert mode modification
Is there a mod that Sims the amp phases? @glass tulip
That would be a question to ask someone smarter than me
@balmy condor is there a way for plebs like us to sim lords or not really
there is a way
but I wouldn't say it's easy
and it also doesn't do much except make number bigger
the APL doesn't play around vulnerability phases because they're few and far between and it's just not worth the effort maintaining
That's what I figured, for all intents and purposes a 2 target sim is probably more than good enough
Only real change I feel is how you would use 90 second or 3 minute trinkets
yeah
but if you do like vuln at 0:40 or something and then every minute
will actually do nothing
Can you do it every 2 min or is that not an option?
What would a pro put in expert mode that would be semi accurate if possible? 
@balmy condor
it wouldn't be
if you read anything I just said
the entire APL would have to be rewritten in order to support vulnerability phases
It's too much work for really nothing
your character will play exactly the same
it wouldn't hold any cds or anything
the only difference you'd see is bigger dps number because boss takes more dps sometimes
but you gain no usable info from it
Maybe the closest thing to a sim or useful data,
would be to filter logs by your ilvl, see what kill timers are simular and see what top 5 logs are, without pi
Sorry I missed the first bit you said, thanks whispdaddy
@balmy condor For play against Anduin like Rogue assa what is the best build, conduits, stats, etc.? Im playing actually against him and my dps its poor... around 16k dps with 274ilvl
And i think im doing something wrong in rotation
this is what I have for anduin, if your rotation is wrong that is a much bigger problem than conduits
raid_events+="/vulnerable,first=53,duration=20,cooldown=140"
would be the raid event for lords
@glass tulip Im using the same conduits and talents, in cleave add phase doing like 22k dps not much more, and in st 16k
well, you shouldnt be worrying about intermission at all
that is not our job to clear those adds
When my raid leader hung up the combat on warcraftlogs my percentile its like 45% for me its poor...
you should be tunneling the remnant as hard as possible, then dot and throw a couple finishers into monstrous to help your raid
but especially when you are looking at mid-progression pulls and trying to look at parse numbers that sounds like a raid leader you should run far away from
for instance: (searching for log now)
it completely depends pull to pull whether you are getting CT uptime on those little guys
ow... what the he.. with only 1k less dps the parse changes a lot
@glass tulipAnd regarding the Cache trinket, Cache 265 is better than Quantum Defive 272, right?
I need to get it...
exactly
cache is great for padding, obviously. I would much much much prefer to get a sigil so I can juice my ST burst

i think i posted a screenshot before
of me just spamming fok + CT in intermission
I peak as high as about 37k in int if I get a juicy axe proc
There's not a whole lot of build or rotational differences
Tunneling in this case just means a few fewer Ruptures or something 😛
Otherwise what you're doing is gonna be like 99% the same anyway
So I should be guided more by the Raidbots sim about my character than by parsing in Warcraftlogs to know if I'm really getting the most out of it or not.
Sometimes parse can be misleading
gear can make a difference, raid comp, fight timings, a whole ton of stuff
The impact of priority_rotation in the Assassination APL based on testing is pretty much limited to not multi-dotting after being energy saturated and not always FoKing
Otherwise we basically do the same thing
raidbots tells you about your character, Warcraftlogs parses tell you about how you do compared to everyone else regardless of all other variables
Also percentile means literal nothing for Assassination on Anduin
There is fewer than 10 parses
imagine all my
if my guild had a monk and warrior
but when you analyze yourself look at casts and uptimes on WCL, that is a great table of resources and metrics
The difference between 30th percentile and 100th percentile on Anduin is 26k vs. 28k dps lol
Nobody should be looking at that at all
Basically I'd say the only real yardstick you can measure yourself by is if your boss damage is reasonably high
Gonna be below Warlocks easily
And maybe behind a good Shadow Priest
Otherwise Rogues should be pretty high
oh really 
I mean
Just doing my best rogue utility. Boss die.
@fleet anchor In my case, it's a guild with poor advancement (8/11HC) where I help and raid with my father, but in the past I made semi-hardcore advancement content and somehow my competitive gene makes me want to get the most out of the character...
And lately I don't know if it's me or the raid composition that I don't feel getting the best performance...
you should fear for my warlocks
I was pure funneling Eviscerates as Sub and still get dumpstered by Warlocks lol
Warlocks are broken tier on Anduin 😦
this is all wipes but on pulls we got deep into p2 i was ahead every time
What happens to me is that, that I mistakenly compare myself with the top 100 of parse in HC...
What metric is that?
Across multiple pulls or?
all wipes
Do they get to stay up?
Ah ok
& get PI’s?
That’s uhhh interesting then.
i mean
Should be a bigger gap IMO
look at the gap between 3rd and 4th
and recall that every player in my guild is below 4th
besides the warlocks
and extrapolate that skill data to our warlocks

I mean all 3 of our Warlocks rather easily beat the current Rank 1 boss damage parse for Assassination
On our kill
So idk lol
That’s just lock diffy.
if i got to stay up I'm like 100% sure i would gap the whole raid on boss dam
And they were only like ~50% Warlock boss damage parses
And still beat the current R1 Rogue boss damage parse
I’m not the best at logs, so I wouldn’t be able to find out. ):
R1 Warlock boss damage parse is 50% higher than the highest logged Rogue parse... lol
its very possible that i could be rank 1 sin when my guild kills
ill probably still be way behind mid warlock parses
Destro aura hotfix buff, never forget
😛
Your boss damage is really nice though
I was tempted to try Assassination over Sub but I was staying up to help stunlock CC in P2
And didn't want to change the CC assignments
i dont think it matters that much at all honestly
we're not lacking anything with our comp
After the nerf almost certainly not since they basically die in a single CC now
and i do enough boss damage that its easily justifiable to take me
But honestly we were so far ahead on boss damage it wouldn't have mattered
Our kill we actually phased out of 2nd intermission early
If we ever do rekill any time soon, I'm gonna try Assassination
But largely I don't think it matters too much
we take 2 and 3 when there are kingsmourne phases
I needed to use it for uhh CC adds.
Shadowstep blind into shadowstep back into the big boi add
bro ive carried the boss damage for so long on so many fights its just whatever at this point
I do think Sub can be a decent person to control the Lost Soul adds with steady/even AoE so it has some nice functionality even if both Rogue specs are slightly meh overall
sick but who
sylvanas i was gapping so hard i probably sped up the kill time by a few s
soryr im not ok rn
Varas got that mental illness from doing Sin keys.
I think Rogues are honestly fine on the fight other than the fact we have nothing broken we can do in intermission
sin has steady aoe as well
If it weren't for intermission Rogues would actually be amazing on Anduin
tbh
sorer
Cache is the only good pad damage.
vendetta is like definitely the highest burst cd for the lich king
not pad
first 25s or so i like giga gap the whole raid
its those last 35 where warlocks pull ahead
True, ethical gaming, adds have to die, I can help with that.
especially with snapshotting lust haste

Oh yeah, that reminds me.
Did y’all ask for fairies for lich king for another vendetta?
I gotta try that out when we get there.
that other trinkets do more
nah no faeries for me
I don't have to ask I just get it 
Your boss damage does look really strong Agreon. I'm looking forward to seeing a kill log.
Although I do think someone needs to show your Warlocks how to ramp though 😄
Too bad you can’t ask for a monk or Warrior debuff.
fingers crossed for monday

Bet?
Warlocks seem to basically just chain chuck Chaos Bolts with Sigil and every possible cooldown into the boss's face for the full duration of lust lol
Still rank 1 necro US, come for my throne if you dare 
You can keep it.
i cant
im eu
how do i not suck at torghast for levelling
Much skill
Also enjoy how Infernal and set bonus proc infernal damage alone for the top Warlock parse is actually more boss damage in the first intermission than our Hunters and Warrior did to the boss on our kill
Truly a very balanced spec
Needs another 5%
Does Mind-Numbing & Curse of Weakness end up stacking, or does one overpower the other?
Second afaik
curse of weakness is slightly stronger i believe
I've dishonored the sin gods on lihivium.. 😦
Iirc fuu said they stack
Can prob search for messages about it on discord search
did you kill the boss
yea but grey parse 😦
so?
are you in some top 50 guild that actively cares about how much damage you do?
if not then killing the boss is the most important part
im trialing for this guild
go through your logs after raid and make incremental improvements
i was the only grey parser.
as long as you show a willingness to improve and you dont die then nobody will mind a grey parse here or there
tons of sin rogues playing the chick over theo
yeah because lihuvim is a high mobility fight
yeaaa
its not high enough mobility that you need 2 imo
isn't that because nadjia > theo without haste tea?
that'd be news to me that theo is only better w/ theo tea. seems like massive rng
its because you cant take advantage of the shade
anything which has even medium mobility you will not do more damage with theo
Soulbind: Theotar with haste tea (3 potencies) > Nadja with Dauntless Duelist (2 potencies)
from the pins
where is that in the pinned messages? literally don't see it mention soulbind
scroll to the bottom
oh it's in the rotation?
thats new
so you go theo.. roll for haste tea, don't get it, swap to nadija
weird...
yes
Lots of people just also sticking to nadija with heavy movement because of low shade up time like @ebon notch mentioned.
my sub sims for notttthhinnnggg
oh im running 1 leggo again smart
jfc
wonder why my sub gear sims at almost 1.2k less than sin.
~3 ilvl difference. Raidbots says I should still be using 246 eon vs 278 dags. I'll have to hit up the sub channel.
Both Soulbinds are really close especially if you don’t have 100% Soothing Shade uptime
just keep theotar for sub and make your life easy
theotar for sub nadi for sin? lol
i think that was OG suggestion that didn't work out/wasnt worth idk
i mean
nadja is bis for sin
Honestly the soulbinds aren’t a huge deal whether it’s Theo or nadija.
thats new
it's always been that way
i'd have to dig but when I made the swap a couple weeks ago people weren't saying what they are tonight
those theo sims force haste tea
weird
A wild thought, if 4p is aoe effect, would that make sin kinda meta in m+?
Like 2nd tier after hunter locks
Obviously hunter locks are way too busted unless bliz nerfs they will always be top
Dslice
dungeonslic
ty ty
If 4piece was an AOE it would be a nightmare for the player
it just wouldnt function
You’d just be sacrificing dmg for kicks/stuns if 4pc was aoe anyways since you’d have to maintain bleeds on everything to get proper dmg output
not just that
bleeds would be falling off so fast you wouldnt be able to maintain like anything
a lot of people think the current set is unfun, that set would be like objectively unfun
Things that amplify our bleeds/poisons > exsanguinate
Hey guys, is there still a bug with the ass set when two people are playing assassin in the same group?
no
Alright great, been wanting to play around with assass in alt night but there is another one so wasn't sure
oh nice im simming at 15.3k dungeon slice
sub casually sims 25k+ dungeon slice
dslice sim is mostly about gear optimizations more than actual predicted damage
I think Cev has mentioned this for some time. He pretty much had been running Nadjia everywhere. Either one is fine though, but sims are definitely forcing Haste tea and also default to full Soothing Shade uptime. Even then, they sim pretty close and it's pretty close to 50/50 once you account for those factors.
So it's easy enough to just not fuss with Theotar tbh
||assa is fun||
||true and based||
again, I was in agreement. People just weren't saying this ~a month ago
people were saying do both to avoid spec swaps, but outside of that not this additional info
Out of fcm, 272phial, and 278 sigil. What combo would y'all pick for lords?
Yeah, hard to evaluate use for every for every burn VS sigil with pot/lust and execute/pot
Assuming you use phial
You think fcm sigil would be a trap?
yeah, what is the sigil going towards
Think you'd lose a cast of fcm yea?
yeah it would replace an fcm cast
during swarm
or you fcm on pull, use sigil in swarm 1
then fcm on other swarms until sigil is up again
something like that
There’s so much “choice” that super doesn’t matter
You can eyes closed pick soulbinds
True but I enjoy it
How accurate is bloodmallet for our trinkets?
I know cache is bis by a lot but if we don’t have that what should we use?
IQD, soleahs, or shadowgrasp totem?
!fuu my spreadsheet has trinket combinations, i think that is better to have an idea of relative strengh
Fuus Shadowlands evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/uxr1tz
but as minalba pointed out, you will need to sim in the end
@bleak sky how you

hold on i have a screenshot that will sum it up
fake
yall buggin??
i unlocked godmode today and did a nice 1.5k dps more than normal
while changing literally nothing
so that was nice
some god vendettas?
idk i hard prio'd rupture/garrote in the last 4-5 seconds of vendetta
like cev told us to
and damage went zoom
before i wasnt refreshing as aggressively
but now im trying hard to get those 14 second ruptures out of vendetta and it kinda pumped
you will kill it soon



this is good
ty homie
Idk just kill it













Bone Gang today
