clever kayak
#

anyone know of a good resource that explains the need for swing timer and SSing after a swing?

#

cant seem to find it in any rogue guides online

#

im wondering if it applies to both sword specialization/thrash blade/windfury, and how to tell if the extra attack procs

plucky nymph
#

You don't track it because it's not worth it.

#

The concept is that the extra attack resets the swing timer, so you wanna cast abilities that would trigger the extra swing as close to the beginning of your swing timer as possible.

clever kayak
#

and those abilities are... SS and riposte?

plucky nymph
#

Yep.

clever kayak
#

so i could 1shot a boss with 1 white attack, because swords spec -> procs windfury -> procs sword spec -> procs windfury repeat until infinity 🤔

plucky nymph
#

They'd probably kill you first.

errant timber
#

you could

#

but the chance of that happening is really really really low

pale lark
#

what are ppl offering for the recp @plucky nymph , my friend found one aswell and has no clue, none on AH

plucky nymph
#

3-5x bag cost.

#

Which is impossible atm.

drowsy phoenix
#

how much is that in numbers?

plucky nymph
#

1-2.5k

drowsy phoenix
#

holy sheezus

plucky nymph
#

Mooncloth is expensive.

clever kayak
#

meh rather than track swing timer id rather have an SS icon light up if energy > 40 and swingtimer < swing time/4

#

seems a lot easier

plucky nymph
#

Doesn't matter either way as you should be at high energy anyway.

#

and the entire concept is a low DPS gain.

clever kayak
#

i think rogue in general has a lot of low dps gain optimizations that add up

#

pooling energy is another

#

each one is only 1-5% dps gain but it adds up

shadow tapir
#

How is pooling energy a gain?

fair carbon
#

Vanilla rogue pooling kekw

clever kayak
#

saving up more energy for cooldowns such as blade flurry, or in dungeons deciding whether to snd, ss, or evisc based on mob hp

plucky nymph
#

Just mashing is fine, but you lose a lot of AoE DPS due to it.

clever kayak
#

you generally want to be able to do 2 actions in a row

#

whether its ss + kick, ss + snd, etc

#

it makes you a lot more adaptable to a scenario

shadow tapir
#

For blade flurry makes sense

plucky nymph
#

and target switching, etc.

#

If you have SC 6pc you wanna be at like...

#

40nrg?

#

Procs can burn energy pretty easily.

#

Huh, easy money maker...

#

have UBRS key, be stealth class, sell unlocking door.

fair carbon
plucky nymph
#

or sell Jed lockouts with the door open.

#

infiniteMoney

#

SC6p is so fucking spiky, jesus

maiden cave
#
[8:29 PM] Mizerok - Stalagg [H]: or sell Jed lockouts with the door open.```
#

that sounds pretty damn profitable, heh

#

and yeah SC6p looks really fun, still haven't got the drops for it, sadly

plucky nymph
#

Most of the time it's fine, sometimes you SS to 0NRG and it procs you back to 90NRG or so.

#

and you're like... OK SSSSSSSSS

maiden cave
#

😄

#

I'll have to put more effort into getting it

fair carbon
#

So Miz would you say the proc rate is higher than 3~%

#

Cause isn’t that what people thought originally?

plucky nymph
#

Nah I don't think so.

#

Will see if I can get Details to track it.

#

It just doesn't have an ICD and procs on itself.

maiden cave
#

procs upon procs upon procs

fair carbon
#

Hm

maiden cave
#

3% is still great, happens loads with all the hits you get from swordspec/hoj/wf/ss/etc.

fair carbon
#

That’s fair

#

I love swinging my weapon once but actually having it swing 4 times

plucky nymph
#

It's a PITA to track it seems.

fair carbon
#

I love the scrolling battletext addon I have

#

I get all giddy when I see THRASH!, WINDFURY!, and SWORD SPEC! in rapid succession

plucky nymph
fair carbon
#

Sick

#

So yeah it procs a lot

plucky nymph
#

Will see.

fair carbon
#

Oh peophammer idk why I thought that was your test

#

50 RS procs monkaW

plucky nymph
#

Nah that's the energy gain

fair carbon
#

Yeah

#

25 on a finisher

#

WORK DISC

#

Not the SC proc

plucky nymph
fair carbon
#

That’s actually amazing

plucky nymph
#

That's with a holding BF a lot.

fair carbon
#

I’m sure that 6p makes BF even more ludicrous too

daring kelp
#

Anyone know what pickpocket Resist is based on? Is it a static %?

wraith parcel
#

Spell hit, as it is a spell

shadow tapir
#

I really hate vendoring greens, need bigger bags

fair carbon
#

What bags you using?

daring thunder
#

why don't you have full onyxia bags

fair carbon
#

Not having full Bottomless Bags

#

Pssh

#

Heathen

daring thunder
shadow tapir
#

Bank alt still rocking linen bags

#

but I had a full bank of greens

plucky nymph
#

Yo if you need bags, I can hook you up.

shadow tapir
#

On Sulfuras

#

I got the gold for it, Im just stingy

fair carbon
#

“I got the gold for it”

#

No you don’t HA

plucky nymph
#

Ain't nobody got the gold for what I got.

shadow tapir
#

I didnt say bottomless lol

plucky nymph
#

of dumb comments I get listing the recipe for 1k+?

daring thunder
#

1 comment for each gold

vocal hornet
#

@shadow tapir bags are overrated. I mail stuff to my bank, then hit return. have like 20 mails sitting in the mailbox. 30 days is plenty.

shadow tapir
#

True

vocal hornet
#

thats where I keep all my herbs.

plucky nymph
shadow tapir
#

Yeah I decided to forego devilsaur and just hunt Shadowcraft

#

Mount more important lol

plucky nymph
#

That's my feeling as well.

exotic trellis
#

devilsaur only like 200g on my server

#

maybe I can snipe some devilsaurs in a week and go try to do it myself

shadow tapir
#

About the same here

#

But even if you farm it yourself its still effectively gold being spent

plucky nymph
#

Yep, could just sell the leather.

#

lol

#

Each piece is like... 5 mongoose pots

shadow tapir
#

Linkens boomerang is disappointing 😦

#

Ive only seen it stun once

exotic trellis
#

idk I mean I wont be raiding for a while

#

so probably just grab devilsaur for that intermediate pwoer boost

daring thunder
#

as long as your get your epic mount before phase 2 you're fine

#

its not really that necessary right now

shadow tapir
#

Most people arent

plucky nymph
#

Prepare to get fucking runned down O _O

white urchin
#

30 ap or 1% crit?

plucky nymph
#

30ap

errant timber
#

searing gorge has a lot of mob grind quests, eh

plucky nymph
errant timber
#

which herbs should i stock up on during lvling that i'll use later

plucky nymph
#

healing potion herbs?

errant timber
#

ive been stocking the shit out of firebloom for immolation potions

#

not sure if ppl use those or not, though

hushed laurel
#

Tanks can use then later. Or use then in strat/scholo

#

Gromsblood sells real well on most servers

#

But, just stock up on squid. Live the best food life year round

rancid nova
#

Is nightslayer gloves + bloodfang legs considered better than the devilsaur set together or is it only until bwl?

tough pilot
#

@rancid nova they will only become better once you have the set. check shadowpanther for bis lists

rancid nova
#

Alright, cheers

marble stratus
#

Just a quick question boys and girls, I am currently lvl 51 but I have to say i am pretty burned out on questing. Would you guys say just spamming dungeons is a viable option to get from 51-60 or atleast close to or will it take like way longer?

exotic trellis
#

Not a lot of dungeons you can do in that level range

#

Maraudon if you don’t have your blackstone ring, atal’dazar hakkar sounds awful, too low for BRD really

fossil steeple
#

st is fun if you like labyrinths

exotic trellis
#

I can’t do atal hakkar

#

It’s just

#

Bleh

fossil steeple
#

well its easy to get lost in there

#

and full clear takes a minimum of 2hrs

marble stratus
#

BRD from 52 onwards right?

maiden cave
#

@marble stratus spamming dungeons is awesome once you get to 53ish, you can start spamming BRDs and then LBRS/Strat/whatever once 57+

marble stratus
#

If i remember correctly

maiden cave
#

if you save quests for 60 that's a huge amount of gold too

#

ie. not doing WPL/EPL/Winterspring quests, then doing them at 60, big $$$

#

so sure, if you can find groups, dungeon spamming is a good idea

marble stratus
#

Nice 😄

versed cedar
#

i hate spamming dungeons :/ so many people dont have a clue what they are doing :/

sharp grotto
#

Lol this guild is gonna give a CHT to a damn tank over any of the rogues in guild.... like what

spark raptor
#

Its good for tanking

#

Unless your tank is human/orc i guess

sharp grotto
#

Orcs

#

That’s the depressing part

#

We have 3 dagger rogues including me

ancient phoenix
#

Guess they won't mind passing TF to rogues then 🤔

sharp grotto
#

There’s plenty other gear n weaps for tanking

#

Don’t give a bis dagger to a tank lol

tawdry cobalt
#

@marble stratus there is always to option to just farm mobs, you dont have to have a quest to kill mobs. And farming mobs is a very valid way to level.
It is usually more gold per hour, but maybe a bit less exp per hour than questing. And it is rather braindead most of the time, so you can watch Netflix/Youtube on the other screen (or the phone if you dont have two screens) while doing it

marble stratus
#

@tawdry cobalt Thanks 🙂 i'll try some farming aswell to get to 53 atleast that is

wraith parcel
#

I mean, perditions blade is better than CHT

#

And generally gear on the tanks first (should) allow dps to not throttle and just always go ham

tawdry cobalt
#

Ye the bigger deeps the tanks does, the bigger deeps the dps can do, so it would make sense. I'd be hella frustrated to see CHT go to a tank though

strange canopy
#

Is there a resource that details not just the talent tree points, but when I should be pouriiinnngg them in as I level?

tawdry cobalt
#

But sometimes it's just better for the raid as a whole

maiden cave
strange canopy
#

Awesome, tyvm

#

So I think the build isaw on wowhead was 19/32

#

It said it was the best pve sword spec. So I wad following that, I put 5 points into increased crit, and some into combat tree so far. I'm lvl16

#

Is that 5 points into increased crit gong t screw me up?

tawdry cobalt
#

You just get Blade Flurry and Adrenaline Rush 5 levels later than what you shoulf

#

Spending 1g that early on a respec might not be optional though, you can wait for lvl 30 (when you can get Blade Flurry) then respec into full Combat 👍

strange canopy
#

So is the 19/32 sword the best dps pve spec for rogue? Ocer daggers

maiden cave
#

@strange canopy there's a difference between the levelling spec and the raiding spec at level 60

#

both combat specs are fine for raiding at 60, swords and daggers

strange canopy
#

So the 19 32 sword isn't the raiding pve spec for swords?

versed cedar
#

it is

#

but dagger build is also 19/32/0

#

*combat dagger

#

you just switch the weapon spec

strange canopy
#

Oh so you would want to switch to daggers for raiding at 60 instead of Swords?

#

Since we can be behind the target most of the time and get those backstabs off etc

versed cedar
#

comabt sword is the strongest bild afaik

dusk crystal
#

not really

#

both are fine

strange canopy
#

I'm confused

dusk crystal
#

sword is super strong if you're human

versed cedar
#

dagger builds can shine on very short fights, cause your burst potential is very high

strange canopy
#

Yeah I'm human

versed cedar
#

and if you have a look at the logs, where some fights just take 20-30 secs, dagger can be very strong

tawdry cobalt
#

The leveling build doesnt pick any wep specialization, you take the 5% parry and Riposte for leveling, then respec at 60 to sword, or for daggers if you get a decent pair

#

There is also a Seal of Fate dagger build that is really strong for endgame

maiden cave
#
[1:25 PM] FahwiTV: but dagger build is also 19/32/0
[1:25 PM] FahwiTV: *combat dagger```
#

combat daggers gets opportunity from sub

#

so it's more like 15/31/5

versed cedar
#

hm... thought that was the naxx seal fate build that took opportunity. Okay, then im sorry that I was maybe misinforming :/

tropic karma
#

how much worse is combat daggers than swords? assuming similar weapons

#

I had a hunter in my group take brutality blade yesterday. made me realize how disgusting that class is and that I should probably look into going for daggers

versed cedar
#

u need to sim it

#

to know the exact difference

#

but simming via spreadsheet is a bit more effort to take

tropic karma
#

sim it? I've only seen that classic simcraft thing and it's horrible

versed cedar
#

on classic discord there is a sim spreadsheet

tropic karma
#

I would assume someone's done the math already after all these years

versed cedar
#

there was somewhere a tutorial for it, but its the only thing I know

#

otherwise you have to take what other people say is better

maiden cave
#

combat sword/combat dagger are both great, some might argue that dagger could be better p1 because perdition+CHT+ACLG

#

just take whatever you can, both are awesome

tropic karma
#

I'm going for daggers eventually either way since I wanna focus more on pvp

versed cedar
#

seal fate dagger build looks also nice

#

but you have 0 aoe

tawdry cobalt
#

You'll have good ST though, and it's not like Combat got that much aoe either, once every 2 minutes isnt that great

#

But I think Seal of Fate demands really good gear? Like AQ/Naxx levels of gear?

spark raptor
#

It demands that naxx gear+ world buffs

#

Swords are superior throughout the game

#

Aq gear might work too with how much damage eviscerate does

#

Probably not tho feelycraft

strange canopy
#

Ok I've got way more confused

#

So from what I've been reading it looks like you definitely want to take engineering as a rogue two for the dynamite

#

?

maiden cave
#

do you want to pvp a lot? engineering is very good.
do you need it right away? no, you can respec to it later.

hushed laurel
#

Pretty much everyone should take engi. Its busted. You just shouldn't level with it

strange canopy
#

Ahh ok. So just grab it later on. I took herb and skin. Figure I might be able to make some cash while leveling.,

tawdry cobalt
#

Ye, gathering professions is best for leveling

strange canopy
#

So what about lw later on, is there pieces we would want from that at higher levels? Or better t just get mats and have someone make it and get a different second profession aside eng later on

marble dune
#

@tropic karma lol hunters took that sword over rogues/wars? Yikes

fallen panther
#

A hunter in our guild had the server first thunderfury, so...

tawdry cobalt
#

That one is hard to believe to be honest:P

fallen panther
#

And yet it's actually true peepoSHAKE

tawdry cobalt
#

Yiikes, guess it got agi though, so is good

fallen panther
#

We knew it wasn't the best use but we considered it more a status symbol, really. And he kinda earned it I suppose

#

There even is a cringey YouTube video about it but I'm not gonna show that pepeLaugh

tawdry cobalt
#

Hahaha, I had a hunter in my guild with the first ass-candy that dropped for us :P the warriors found it amusing, and it got even better when we did runs with pugs later on (boosted people), and watched warriors reaction to our melee hunter

shadow tapir
#

My goal is to find this video now

marble dune
#

i remember there was a rogue in tbc who got the server first legendary bow

shadow tapir
#

Didn’t it suck for hunters anyway

#

Compared to other options

marble dune
#

the...legendary bow?

vocal hornet
#

the legendary feral druid staff isnt better than the MCP from gnomergon

#

we had a priest with the orange caster staff. sold his account for like 3k $

marble dune
#

its better in a sense u dont have to waste your life away farming the mcp endlessly

vocal hornet
#

right.

#

or just dont play feral in classic raids.

#

ugh

#

hitting shred every 4 seconds is pretty shit right now.

tawdry cobalt
#

The legendaey bow was indeed crap fo hunters

shadow tapir
#

Yeah can’t remember why

#

No ammo dps maybe

plucky nymph
#

The ammo DPS was not the reason.

fallen panther
#

What was the reason?

plucky nymph
#

Looking, but I remember ammo not being an issue and that the bow had perfect speeds for clipping.

#

Finding the ORIGINAL is a PITA though.

#

I've seen like FOUR different fucking tooltips.

#

As there were leaks, PTR versions, official versions, maybe an update.

#

🔫

fallen panther
#

Yeah

shadow tapir
#

Original was 2.7 speed pretty sure

#

Based on original wow head comments anyway.

plucky nymph
#

I think those were the final stats.

hushed laurel
#

It was worse than the bow of quelthalas or whatever. It just was a better stat stick for stabbybois. End of expac leggos suck honestly

plucky nymph
#

The bow was specifically made for Steady Shot builds that were buff at the time from the tier.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

sharp grotto
#

Talking about builds earlier, I went 15/31/5 as daggers

exotic trellis
#

I wanna go daggers but imma wait until shank and bone scraper

#

Reee why is barman’s the only realistic choice for a MH dagger pre raid it looks so ugly

sharp grotto
#

Lol I’m lucky and got both on first runs!

#

I hit 60 in 5 bubbles when I get home from work to lol

#

Instead of hitting 60 I pointlessly ran the raid with guild lastnight

hushed laurel
#

One of our rogues was excited to go daggers, but we got a krol blade and gave it to him. 🤷

plucky nymph
#

o _o

sharp grotto
#

Lol I just like the feel of BS over SS haha

plucky nymph
marble dune
#

i vendored my barmans PeepoShrug

#

the proc was pissing me off

#

combat daggers is so trash to use for dungeon pre raid bis farming

#

ambush = instant aggro and now you cant backstab

#

AR + bladefurry = instant aggro and now youre forced to SS your target, or lose combo points and switch targets to backstab

plucky nymph
#

Yep.

fallen panther
#

Except for saying bladefurry ofc

exotic trellis
#

?

fallen panther
#

Exactly

pale lark
#

what daggers are "decent" beyond felstriker and the MC daggers

#

a MH dagger

#

pvp wise

#

barmans shanker is a tilter with the dot

exotic trellis
#

Heartseeker

#

But it costs 10 arcanite bars

#

So it’s a yikes

pale lark
#

ye nvm that aswell

#

does any1 have darrowspike, and is the dmg consistent , even if its fast

#

like w/e

exotic trellis
#

Ya could just grab another bonescraper

#

Although it’s fast as fuck boi for mainhand

pale lark
#

ye i got 1 bonescraper, was thinking of getting darrowspike

#

cuz every other slow dagger has the like dot effect shit on them

exotic trellis
#

I’d just grab another bonescraper

#

And then just fish for perdi

#

It drops a stupid amount and it’s like dagger rogue only so it should be an easy priority for you to get one

pale lark
#

ye, hoping to be able to raid soonish, but ive been forced to become a pug master so its abit difficult

plucky nymph
humble roost
#

Guys, is sword + combat spec the only legit way to level solo? Or are daggers subtlety legit at any point?

plucky nymph
#

How do you backstab, in their face?

daring kelp
#

@humble roost you can level with a mix of all talent trees just fine, it just won't be optimal and can sometimes be hard to find good Daggers in a few level ranges. Riposte leveling is just really good. I've seen people that ONLY spam dungeons with a set group run a dagger spec and they outdamaged every other melee.

humble roost
#

thanks @daring kelp

daring kelp
#

There is 0 need to follow advice given by the meta-oriented players, but if you have limited time to play per day and want to reach 60 so you can Raid or PvP with friends at max level, the meta will always be the most efficient way of playing, but not necissarily the most fun experience.

sharp grotto
#

@plucky nymph how’s it looking having 8/8 vs 2 DS or having truestrike/cad chest

shadow tapir
#

No reason to run more than 6 SC

sharp grotto
#

I ment just stats from them pieces vs what you get from others

shadow tapir
#

Oh gotcha

plucky nymph
#

There are better singular pieces.

sonic crest
#

How many pieces of T1 do you need before they outweigh 6 SC

plucky nymph
#

Fuck if I know.

#

Can probably plug pieces in, will see.

#

So...

#

Not worth it until you get like... 5 pieces.

#

6 really

#

Any one piece is better than the other piece, but the set bonus is pretty dramatic and you need a lot of stats to beat it out.

maiden cave
#

make sure to use the better NS pieces (belt/shoulder/head) first ;o

plucky nymph
#

Yep.

#

Then hoard them.

plucky nymph
worldly juniper
#

anyone know if finkles skinner are decent for combat dagger build ?

plucky nymph
#

Fuck no.

worldly juniper
#

heartseeker so expensive to make 😢

plucky nymph
#

There are options.

worldly juniper
#

barmans and bonescraper?

#

scrolling up earlier with the 2 BIS alternatives there's 1 with cad and truestrike w/ 6pc shadowcraft and 1 with devilsaur set + 6pc SC , im guessing the devilsaur + shadowcraft 6pc is better for preraid?

shadow tapir
#

according to the spreadsheet theyre very similar

worldly juniper
#

how close we talking

shadow tapir
#

1 MAEP or so

#

however minor that is, cant answer that

plucky nymph
#
MAEP: Maximum DPS AEP for use in maximizing PVE raid DPS.
drowsy phoenix
#

PvE
kekw

#

needs more agility and parry %

oak portal
#

How much am I going to hurt a combat sword spec if I skip out on lethality?

plucky nymph
#

~1% DPS

signal ember
#

I mean what else would you pick at that point?

versed cedar
spark raptor
#

Get poison chance instead

maiden cave
#

@versed cedar a lot of people use those for a while until they get better

sonic crest
#

How much is hit % worth after you're capped?

#

(the 4% cap)

#

(9% total with talents)

robust moon
#

Trash Blade + Assassination Blade is pretty good choice for pre raid setup?

#

or untill u get 2/2 from UBRS

tawdry cobalt
#

Think Hanzo is better OH, but ye rather decent

#

There' s also the sword from Scholo quest (Or was it strat, cant remember right now), which is even better OH

daring thunder
#

Mirah's Song i think

tawdry cobalt
#

ye that's the eone

robust moon
#

cuz of raw stats?

daring thunder
#

stats and speed are both good on it

maiden cave
#

@sonic crest your yellow hit cap vs raid bosses (+3 your level) if you have 305 weapon skill is 6%, not 9%

#

and hit % is still valuable after that due to the fact that it increases your white damage, but obviously not to a degree where you'd use it over an equal amount of crit

#

if you want specific numbers for how valuable it is, you should use the BloodMoon DPS spreadsheet, it will give you EAP values

#

because the value of stats varies quite wildly depending on what buffs/gear you have

sonic crest
#

Thanks @maiden cave I forgot we're at 305 not 300. Also where can I find the BloodMoon DPS spreadsheet?

maiden cave
#

the rogue classic discord has it, it can be a PITA to get to work unless you use WPS (which is kinda trash software), but it's really handy in general

#

and the rogue classic discord has a lot of idiots, but you get used to that

hushed laurel
#

That's basically every classic oriented discord

vestal spruce
#

For special snowflake dagger rogues like my GM, worth it to swap acl gloves in over keeping 6 piece?

#

Or only if you can swap another piece to maintain the set bonus

spark raptor
#

Yes

vestal spruce
#

Thanks

spark raptor
#

Gloves are too good

vestal spruce
#

He's very excited about his special gloves

#

Loves them and the dagger helm from dragons in vanilla

plucky nymph
#

The DPS spreadsheet works fine in Google Sheets as an Import with the right File -> Spreadsheet Settings -> Calculation settings changed;

#

It just breaks sometimes for literally no reason.

maiden cave
#

😄

plucky nymph
#

and then is fixed, seemingly for no reason.

#

Which isn't annoying at all.

shadow tapir
#

I still haven’t touched it, just seems too annoying lol

maiden cave
#

its an amazing tool tbh

#

I love fooling around in the spreadsheet, trying different gear combinations

plucky nymph
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

marble dune
#

wtb raidbots

#

for classic

#

i trust nobody's sims except for @ruby bridge 's

hushed laurel
#

reads through combat logs of 500000 white hits and SS
Maximum dps is achieved by not dying, gear is irrelevant

ruby bridge
#

Idk if there will be classic sims

plucky nymph
#

Unless someone wants to make a weird GUI for the spreadsheet, ehhh... dunno

#

Can host it on geocities.

pale lark
#

man its a big yikes to farm shadowcraft chest lol

#

CBA full Ubrs runs

#

always so slow and shit

plucky nymph
#

Eh.

maiden cave
#

getting SC chest is a pain, but so is painweaver

#

just do a few UBRS runs when you get the chance, but don't stress about it ;p

sharp grotto
#

Yea I lost SC roll to a hunter lastnight

#

So yup

maiden cave
#

plus SC chest isn't amazing, you can get the 6pc bonus elsewhere

#

so it's not a huge deal necessarily

sharp grotto
#

If you get the cad chest or the Jed chest

pale lark
#

Wanna get 6 pce while using devilsaur set

#

so its like the only piece available

sharp grotto
#

Yea,

#

But you can get 6 pc and use cd chest and truestrike

#

Cad chest*

#

Bc the hit ain’t “needed” from DS.... since you get it from neck / rings / trinkets

pale lark
#

true but the crit is nice

sharp grotto
#

You get that from raw agi from gloves / pants

#

Don’t you?

#

DS was mainly for the hit wasn’t it? I’m not 100% sure on that

pale lark
#

isnt 29 agi 1 crit

#

or whats is it

sharp grotto
#

Yea I think so... so you get like 1.5+ crit instead of 2

#

But you get that from other pieces also

pale lark
#

but u lose like half the AP aswel

sharp grotto
#

Agi is AP and crit

pale lark
#

shadowcraft legs have 12 strength, devilsaur 47 AP

#

oh ye

sharp grotto
#

Agi is AP also?

pale lark
#

y

#

forgot

sharp grotto
#

How much agi is on there to

#

So your really not losing much

#

If anything

pale lark
#

so shadowcraft legs are 36 Ap, 1.5 crit

maiden cave
#

devilsaur is great even without the 2% hit, they're really strong pieces, but sure you can do 6pc SC without using devilsaur, its not a huge deal

sharp grotto
#

Yea

maiden cave
#

cad chest + mask, cad chest + truestrike, mask + truestrike, tons of combos

#

it will all come out close enough to even that its not worth stressing too hard about

fallen panther
#

A hunter snatched the chest? Aww that's a classic pepeLaugh

pale lark
#

ye getting the hit is not a problem

sharp grotto
#

Yup hunter got it

pale lark
#

mostly looking for the crit and stam cause im using it for pvp

fallen panther
sharp grotto
#

Cad set would be better for pvp I think

#

It’s got a lot of stam

pale lark
#

i got full cad set but idk, was thinking b4

#

mixing cad and shadowcraft, 4 + 3

#

or wait am i dumb

#

for the AP set bonus

sharp grotto
#

Lol

pale lark
#

just ignoring SC 6pc

sharp grotto
#

Yea chances are it won’t proc when short pvp fights

#

Unless lucky

pale lark
#

na u cant do it , fuck

#

the 4 pce SC, 3 pc cad

#

or u can, but u wont hitcap

#

youll be at 4% and thats running 2 in precision dagger prep spec

plucky nymph
#

DS doesn't sim much higher, even though they seem very thick

pale lark
#

ye im off the DS train

#

glad i didnt buy it

#

was going too today but na

plucky nymph
#

Just looking at the MAEP values shows it's NOT worth 400 fucking gold.

#

People need to stop buying in that inflated shit.

pale lark
#

Only way i can get the last hit into this set is with guards captains trinket , which is abit yikes since u would wanna swap trinket salot

#

na ofc , its just the ppl solo camping devilsaurs

#

and ppl blindly following a bis list

plucky nymph
#

You don't need 4%.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Just use Blackcrow.

pale lark
#

pvp spec

#

so id only have 2 in precision

marble dune
#

stoneskin cape

plucky nymph
#

So you need 0% hit, excellent.

marble dune
#

yum yum

plucky nymph
#

well, 3%

#

dagger HoJ 4head

marble dune
#

i got kicked from a run before cos they asked me if i needed stone skin cape and i said yes

#

"wtf its a tank cloak"

plucky nymph
#

o _o

#

Doesn't drop anyway.

pale lark
#

lol trinkets were on default

#

hence why i said no point in getting

#

a hit trinket

#

ye stoneskin cloak never drops

#

never see the fucker either

civic crest
#

How long did it take you to get felstriker?

pale lark
#

I dnt have it, its just me being a dreamy boy adding it

#

im using double bonescraper atm , cuz no MC daggers ree

#

even if the speed is dog

civic crest
#

I want felstriker so bad Jesus

pale lark
#

barmans and the LBRS dagger fuckedme over so much

civic crest
#

I wonder what the proc rate is

pale lark
#

i solved it

#

i just need to get onyxia neck pog

plucky nymph

sharp grotto

I love my barman and scraper lol

pale lark

hemo swords is just as good

broken pollen
#

what is the dps increase of using swing timer

#

for sword spec

marble dune
#

1-2% depends if you have WF or not

exotic trellis
#

you'd get mroe DPS by popping an extra consumable or 2

plucky nymph
#

.5% - 🔮

hushed laurel
#

dunno if ive spread my hype here today or not, but i bought my edgemasters for 400g earlier. so fuckin sweet. i can actually pretend to hit things now

exotic trellis
#

edgemaster is 300g on my server rn

#

meanwhile alcor's is like 1k for some reason

#

man I wish I got a good BOE drop

tame geyser
#

3/5 lethality+murder or 5/5 lethality?
I'm thinking flat 2% dmg increase better than increasing crit dmg from 218% to 230%, especially before you even have a lot of crit chance, what do u think?
leveling btw

fair carbon
#

Take murder

#

Nearly everything you fight applies to the damage increase

neat sun
#

I wish I wasn't so dogshit at weakauras

tame geyser
#

@neat sun what are you trying to do?

sharp grotto
#

hmmmm should i only take 4/5 Lethality and 1 relentless strikes?

#

or just got get relentless

#

im daggers

fair carbon
#

I'm so horrible at weakauras as well

#

Trying to make this SnD timer with the ability icon that will glow and be grey when its not up, and colored when it is

#

But only be visible in combat

sharp grotto
#

i cant decide if i want imp SnD or Ruthlessness

fair carbon
#

You get both

#

But get imp SnD first

sharp grotto
#

i dont in my dagger build i am

fair carbon
#

Oh

#

Daggers kekw

sharp grotto
#

so much more fun

exotic trellis
#

The dagger rotation doesnt really leave room for evis

sharp grotto
#

who said evis?

exotic trellis
#

yea

sharp grotto
#

what about evis

exotic trellis
#

its backstab every 6 secs, snd every 30

#

so relentless doesnt really do anything

sharp grotto
#

gives 25 energy 100% everytime ?

#

since SnD is consdierd a finisher so it helps get another BS

exotic trellis
#

waht u use that energy on

#

BF I suppose

sharp grotto
#

i mean it will help squeeze another BS over time

neat sun
#

I'm hoping to get daggers to go combat daggers

shadow tapir
worldly juniper
#

does anyone know if master of deception or any other talents affect pick pocket resists?

exotic trellis
#

No but spell hit does

robust moon
#

do u need an improved stealth for successful pickpocketing in dungeons?

#

also I'm curious how much gold/h you can make?

raven snow
#

I was making 40-50 gold/h depending on resists doing BRD runs

sand cipher
#

currently running brutality blade MH, mirah's song OH. i've got crusader on brutality blade, what should i put on mirah's ?

wraith parcel
#

Crusader

sand cipher
#

do you think it's worth putting it on mirah's? idk what the next OH upgrade is

#

people say brutality blade goes in the offhand after you get vis'kag

#

does the strength bonus stack? or just give increased proc rate

spark raptor
#

It does stack. Your next upgrade turns your brutality blade into your offhand (viskag, cts)

#

If you get neither of those until zg release, warblade of thr hakkari(offhand)

urban matrix
#

mmm love it when they both proc within miliseconds of each other

#

are there any good rogue aura timers out there? I used to have one back in the day, forget the name of it.

pale lark
#

I heard +15 agi is better on OH then crusader if you are strictly doing pvp

#

idk how much worse it is though over double crusader

#

for pve

raven snow
#

+15 agi is phase 5

tropic karma
#

@raven snow what spec are you running for pickpocket runs?

#

I've been thinking about going a combat/sub hybrid build

raven snow
#

Standard Pvp build, Hemo/cold blood

tropic karma
#

ah ok

#

I wanna get down to improved sap with stealth speed but gonna suffer in pve and respecs are too expensive :/

#

I've figured out how to farm robe of the archmage pattern but improved sap would be a great help

spark raptor
#

Do you solo the dudes in LBRS?

tropic karma
#

yeah

#

but the pulls are tricky so it's not very consistent other than the 2 guys in the back

lone sorrel
#

what would the next dagger upgrade be after Shanker?

#

if there is anything before raid that is

plucky nymph
#

Felstriker or Black Amnesty technically.

marble dune
#

We had 8 pieces of nightslayer drop last night

#

was glorious 😄

#

2 bracers, 2 belts, gloves, boots, helm, chest

#
  • CHT + the dagger gloves
sharp grotto
#

Damn

#

So what’s better CHT or gutgore?

marble dune
#

CHT is the better OH

#

Ideally Pred/CHT

sharp grotto
#

Ah okay, that just shows gutgore both higher

#

Yea that’s what I’m shooting for

marble dune
#

Gutgore is the higher MH but it might set you back on priority for preds vs a dagger rogue with blue daggers ya know

sharp grotto
#

Yea on my top 3 I put perd / CHT / bloodfang

plucky nymph
marble dune
#

how triggering would it be to play Hemo with viskag MH and perds OH?

plucky nymph
#

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

exotic trellis
#

So

#

Apparently

#

Warriors don’t realize that

#

They’re gonna see a million HOJ’s before they see a single ironfoe

marble dune
#

ive made my own runs where i reserve hojs before lol

#

just invite all caster dps who needs arena for their bis belt

plucky nymph
#

imo if you are goin to make a group where ONLY YOU would EVER roll on HoJ, w/e

marble dune
#

yup, thats how i got mine

shadow tapir
#

I got mine in a 4 man group with just a paladin to roll against

#

I was level 53

marble dune
#

invite a druid tank or a prot war who needs force of will and not HOJ

exotic trellis
#

This res shit is gonna get real annoying real fast

#

Especially as a physical DPS that can’t just decide to tank a run

signal ember
#

You don't really need to have super edge cutting gear to do good dps in raid

marble dune
#

i make my own runs 80% of the time

#

the only time i dont is full ubrs runs cos thats too much work

#

5 mans are easy to form

plucky nymph
#

Course not, but it's annoying.

wraith parcel
#

What druid tank would want force of will lol

#

Instead of hoj

shadow tapir
#

Do people not do 5 man UBRS?

hushed laurel
#

At 60, a rogue can mostly tank that shit anyway. Had a random pug 60 rogue in a brd a few days ago. He ended up pulling aggro and tanking most bosses. Just had a few packs that I would hold on to extra stuff

marble dune
#

the trick is saying "LF2M" to whatever dungeon, even if you have no one, people are more inclined to join when they think the group is almost done forming and will be ready soon. When you get whispers of potential people, tell them to wait 5 mins ish. When you have 2-3 other ppl interested, invite all of them at once

plucky nymph
#

Usually like, 7 for Rend

shadow tapir
#

Hmm, wonder why. I remember always doing 5 mans back then and I never raided

#

Guess the other people were better geared

hushed laurel
#

With people you dont know as well/worse gear, you want extra damage or healing for rend

plucky nymph
#

Safety is important atm.

hushed laurel
#

And just some packs in general

marble dune
#

There are plenty of misinformed ppl doing dungeons

#

so druids will see oh nice tank trinket for force of will

sharp grotto
#

Just get 2 perds

#

Or are they unique?

plucky nymph
#

Do they SAY Unique on them...

shadow tapir
#

It deos say unique

sharp grotto
#

Can’t remember lol

#

Ah okay

plucky nymph
sharp grotto
#

Got ya

#

I’m not on comp so couldn’t look

exotic trellis
#

Well the thing with HOJ is

#

There’s a difference between pre raid bis shoulders and a bis trinket for like almost the whole expac

plucky nymph
#

ONLY MELEE DPS

#

IN STRAT DEAD

#

Let's not drop anything I need.

marble dune
#

tank will need the baron cape

#

and if hes a dick he'll need the dagger too cos fast weapons are good for tanking 😛

exotic trellis
#

I’d whoop his ass if he needed the dagger with a rogue in the party

#

Especially one that is already specced daggers

pale lark
#

Isn’t that just the meta PvP spec that always uses daggers anyways

shadow tapir

No sword spec you should just use bonescraper

pale lark

exotic trellis
#

Fuck I’m in a weird levelling area

#

Maraudon is pointless cuz I have blackstone already

And I’m not high enough for BRD

pale lark
#

Un goro

#

my dude

shadow tapir
#

ZF, Ungoro, Searing Gorge all good

exotic trellis
#

I was gonna go to searing gorge

#

Zulfarrak??????

pale lark
#

burning steppes has some Q

#

if u havent

shadow tapir
#

Tanaris* But Id assume you did all those already

exotic trellis
#

Yea I cleared gadgetzan already

shadow tapir
#

Western Plaguelands prolly has like 2 you could do but thats it

#

Felwood same

#

I liked Searing Gorge, was easy

pale lark
#

felwood has like 1 chain

#

thats good to do

#

cause it leads to owlbeast Qs in winterspring later

exotic trellis
#

Searing gorge has a ton of shit

shadow tapir
#

You need to do searing gorge for sure at some point

#

Its a ton of grind quests you can just group for and knock out

#

I regretted blasted lands

exotic trellis
#

And afterwards I can go to uncork

#

Ungoro*

#

Snipe some devilsaurs without fear of being camped by the opposite faction because pve server btw

shadow tapir
#

If you can kill them yep

exotic trellis
#

Well that’s what the sniping is for

shadow tapir
#

True lol

exotic trellis
#

Grab me a skinning macro cuz I’m a fucking tryhard

shadow tapir
#

Does anyone know if you can do the whole Tirion Fordring quest line at 56?

exotic trellis
#

At what level do you say I can just live in instances farming pre raid bis

shadow tapir
#

You can get into BRD Angerforge runs at 53 probably but after that 56+ for LBRS I think

exotic trellis
#

Oh only 56 for LBRS?

shadow tapir
#

Can probably do it earlier but Ive never seen one with lower

#

Plus Atlasloot has it at 56 so I assume much lower is bad

exotic trellis
#

I woulda expected 58

#

The quest for mirah’s is 58 right?

shadow tapir
#

WEll yeah, I wouldnt expect groups to accept people under that level but definitely possible

#

Not sure, havent done it

exotic trellis
#

Cuz the only way I do scholo that low is for mirah

errant timber
#

I can't get into groups even overlevelling the dungeon so lmao

exotic trellis
#

Rogue lyfe

shadow tapir
#

Well thats cause youre a rogue haha

#

Everyone knows what you want

exotic trellis
#

No AOE, no CC, takes loot from th warriors

errant timber
#

No cc wym

shadow tapir
#

Well when I try to sap someone pulls right before I get there

#

lol

exotic trellis
#

You didn’t talent into improved sap

#

Did you?

#

Plz tell me u didn’t

errant timber
#

No

exotic trellis
#

Then you have no CC

errant timber
#

You still have gouge/kidney/blind and such tho

shadow tapir
#

I sap>vanish when needed

exotic trellis
#

That’s not CC

#

Well it is but

#

Not that useful in a vanilla context compared to a 1 minute sheep

errant timber
#

Imagine if sap didn't suck baseline

exotic trellis
#

Cuz as you noticed

#

Mobs don’t really cast

#

So kick, kidney, gouge are kinda not that useful

plucky nymph
#

another one

exotic trellis
#

how much was the deposit

#

Also totally shoulda undercut him by 1g

plucky nymph
#

30s or something.

then straight to BRD for hoj until 60

As a fucking rogue?

#

Farm ZF?

marble dune

yes

its harder to get grps than a mage sure

but still can be done

are u getting the bottomless bag recps

Just the one.

plucky nymph

Drakk, Ony, etc.

maiden cave
#

same-ish chance as lionheart I imagine

plucky nymph
#

Yeah abouts.

robust moon
#

9% hit is enough?

#

or could be more?

plucky nymph
#

Could be more, shouldn't be though.

robust moon
#

😄

plucky nymph
#

Just remember that the first 5 weapon skill you get over 300 is worth 3% hit.

sharp grotto
#

So you only need 6%

#

Then you get 5% from precision

maiden cave
#

@robust moon if you have 305 weapon skill, 6% hit is your MINIMUM for raiding, it's what you need to never miss yellow attacks

#

but hit beyond that is still valuable for pure DPS

pale lark
#

just got 6 set SC, kek wat is this pog proc rate

maiden cave
#

because it improves your white damage

plucky nymph
pale lark
plucky nymph
#

and heeeeeeeealth.

pale lark
#

i aint using that shit in pvp though biggest dansgame health loss

maiden cave
#

lmao +8 all resistances

#

I hadnt even checked what 8pc SC was

pale lark
#

lose like 400 health when i could be pumping 5 set cadav with 2 set shadowcraft and getting 15+ all ressi

w h a t

exotic trellis

we're memeing that its a "fatal" wound that uh

isnt fatal

hazy dune

it would totally fatally kill a level 15

plucky nymph

So would be the literally any button you pressed to proc it though.

hazy dune

ofc

I could toss a low-level thrown at a level 15 and knock that punk out

lone sorrel
#

Does anyone know if you can get anything usefull from Heavy junkboxes? I have opened around 200 so far and haven't even gotten a green item, only greys, rogue stuff and healing potions.

#

got them from mobs over brd arena if that has anything to do with it.

maiden cave
#

@hazy dune sweet, grats 😄

#

ignore Mizerok being a twat

hazy dune
#

mizerok is a good boy. thank you though

maiden cave
#

@lone sorrel some people say there's a very, very low chance of it dropping actual items, but junkboxes are generally just pots/rogue stuff/some silver - it's still 100% worth it, you save a ton from all the free Blinding Powder

lone sorrel
#

Yeah that's what i thought just wanted to make sure.

hazy dune
#

I got mooncloth bag pattern out of one from BRD pickpocketing earlier today

maiden cave
#

sick

midnight dew
#

i hear it's very low but a possible chance to an alcors razor from pickpocketing

#

the junkboxes

#

also, anyone know if Eye of Rend is actually better than mask of the unforgiven, im assuming if you're hit capped with eye of rend its better?

#

old pre bis tracker says mask of the unforgiven, but the one in the pinned website says eye of rend.

old stone
#

eye was better for me according to the spreadsheet, still 8% hit without mask

what is there left to do in phase 1 after epic mount and mc gear

#

besides afk in org and log on once a week for raids

shadow tapir

When i get there Ill hunt Horde

#

That are on my list

marble dune
#

i guess i can keep accumulating gold for consumables in later phases

hushed laurel
#

Farm mats for war effort. Farm mats for shadow pots. Farm rep for the argent dawn. Run start for UD horsey.

marble dune
#

i am UD 😄

hushed laurel
#

Even better

marble dune
#

what does argent dawn give at exalted

hushed laurel
#

Makes naxx attunement free

marble dune
#

i got revered for the 10 str food

#

then i realized it doesnt stack with the 10 agi food

#

which sucks

hushed laurel
#

Yerp

#

Oh, yah, farm squids

#

Like... 16 hours a day

marble dune
#

ALSO did you know mongoose pot stacks with greater agi

#

found out last night

hushed laurel
#

Weird

plucky nymph
#

They shouldn't...

marble dune
#

so ive been missing out on 25 agi for a whole month

#

it certainly does

#

the order in which you apply it matters

#

use mongoose first

#

greater agi after

#

you get both buffs

#

whats the cost of naxx attunement if not exalted?

plucky nymph
marble dune
#

thats like....80gs tops

plucky nymph
#

Things don't get cheaper.

#

All of those mats are going to spike in price.

marble dune
#

the effort to get exalted compared to the cost of those mats arent worth it imo

plucky nymph
#

There are events and whatnot to grind for rep. as well.

shadow tapir
#

Pretty sure those mats get into the thousands when it hits

plucky nymph
#

Yep.

marble dune
#

you would have to farm those dungeons for at least 3-4 full days to get exalted

plucky nymph
#

Crystals become monstrously expensive.

marble dune
#

in order to save in 2 arcane crystal and 1 nexus crystal

plucky nymph
#

You don't farm now > _>

#

If anything you buy those mats when they're cheap and sit on them.

#

Especially the A.Crystals.

marble dune
#

maybe ill spend a few hours at stv tonight just mercilessly ganking ppl for luls

tough pilot
#

@marble dune in response of your what's there to do in P1, you kinda hit the nail on the head. There really isn't much to do.

#

I just make gold and raid log and this point.

#

No hk's means PvP is pretty damn dry.

marble dune
#

yea i made most of my gold flipping AH

#

so that means im literally just sitting in org all day

tough pilot
#

Yup it be like that. Hoping p2 comes really soon since most are hitting 60 now it seems.

marble dune
#

theyll prob announce the date at blizzcon, which is a month away

#

and idk if theyll release p2 before christmas, sounds like a bad idea

hushed laurel
#

I'd hope its soon after blizzcon. P2 adds "very little"

Are you level 60 Niko?

And are you sure its SS and not white hits

tough pilot
#

Yeah no way you're missing SS's

marble dune
#

details is showing dodge/parries as misses

tough pilot
#

Ahhhh

marble dune
#

if thats what youre looking at

outer dirge
#

yes im 60 and full pre-raid BiS. im looking at logs and maybe it's showing parry/dodge as misses too then?

plucky nymph
#

It makes sense that if a combat log parser like Details might group them together, that WoL imports would as well.

#

Just pay attention every 4 seconds when you hit SS or EVI and look for misses.

#

or use MSBT to make them more obvious.

#

etc.

outer dirge
#

yea i keep forgetting to get MSBT. using in-game combat text atm and sometimes it's hard to see

#

you guys use the ported version or w/e on wowinterface?

plucky nymph
#

I don't use either due to how wack they are atm.

outer dirge
#

that was my one apprehension when i found the ported version. figured it was probably buggy. not many other options i can find tho atm

#

i think Lorti UI has a very smooth version of MSBT built-in? but I use ElvUI

#

nvm it does not

Send them any of the reliable sources for any melee class ShockD

pallid valley
#

Thanks

sharp grotto
#

Lol it’s fucking insane how tilted they are at me over it

dense aspen
#

What are they disputing?

sharp grotto
#

Like all I’ve ever said was I was going the SC 6pc and 2 DS set bc to get the 9% I only need 1-2% from pieces and I will perform the same and it’s actually a littler higher dps wise

shadow tapir
#

4:30

sharp grotto
#

And they are blowing the fuck up how all I do is spout out wrong info and how white dmg is all my dmg and I’ll do so poorly and they just ignore me in gchat bc I’m wrong on everything

shadow tapir
#

They can also argue with the classic melee discords/spreadsheets if they want

dense aspen
#

White damage is a large % of your damage but missing yellows means wasted energy, lost combo point opportunity and less DPS? :/

marble dune
#

this clip is pretty cool

dense aspen
#

Assuming you have +5 or more weapon skill though you should only need 8% hit for the yellow cap I think

shadow tapir
#

6%

#

That video has the formulas

dense aspen
#

Quite correct

#

%1 from gear assuming you specced 5/5 hit %

shadow tapir
#

Why its like that? Idk, BLizzard formulas lol

#

The reason his guildies think SC is bad is because he wont get 8% hit from gear. However, since the required hit is so much lower with weapon skill than they think SC is much better.

#

Just send them the resources, Shockd and if theyre too hard headed to look into it screw em

dense aspen
#

The argument being in later game when you break the SC set bonus the BiS can make up the slack?

shadow tapir
#

I'm pretty sure they just think you need 8% hit from gear

#

3% with precision of course

dense aspen
#

Probably

sharp grotto
#

Now there just shit talking me down in the discord

#

It’s kinda funny how pinheaded he is being for nothing

shadow tapir
#

You dont play on Sulfuras do you

sharp grotto
#

No

shadow tapir
#

Ok good, would need to avoid these people lol

sharp grotto
#

They are saying how I need a lot more bc of glances and all that bull shit

marble dune
#

your own guildies should never shit talk you tbh

#

its time to hop guilds

shadow tapir
#

Yeah, I'd just leave

dense aspen
#

You cannot nullify glancing blows

shadow tapir
#

Also in that video

dense aspen
#

And it becomes futile trying

marble dune
#

they should be backing you up regardless of circumstances (esp if shit talking non-guildies)

dense aspen
#

5% is the minimum glancing penalty and it's only affected by weapon skill AFAIK, not Hit %?

shadow tapir
#

Yeah hit doesnt affect glancing

#

Theyre dumbasses

marble dune
#

its fine to be a toxic elitist to strangers but you cant be acting that way vs guildies

shadow tapir
#

Thats why ACHG are so popular

sharp grotto
#

Lol it’s just insane to me is all I can say

#

Anyone have the spreadsheet ?

sharp grotto
#

Ight gonna see what they do or say about all that

#

And I don’t leave bc I like some of the people... but now I know why some haven’t ran shit with me nd all... they think I have been spouting out all wrong information “where are you getting info bc all we have says the game is different than what you say”

shadow tapir
#

Thats fine but when the info is sent and they ignore it?

outer dirge
#

@sharp grotto tell them to kick rocks, they clearly havent used 6pc SC. i'm standard pre-raid BiS and the other rogue who literally performs within 1% of me overall in raids is 6pc SC w/ other slots being pre-BiS

#

the only downfall is im pretty sure you get crit capped if you're daggers and fully buffed, which is where standard pre-BiS would be a bit stronger

plucky nymph
#

6pc is pretty silly for daggers.

#

Crit cap for BS or not you spam BS more.

sharp grotto
#

They just hadn’t responded to all the info so idk... lol

shadow tapir
#

Whats telling is how they react when they find out theyre wrong

plucky nymph
#

Just remember that the Shadowpanther charts are weighed after Hit Cap.

#

Spam those are them, get them off the really poor Wowhead BiS lists.

shadow tapir
#

Oh thats good to know

plucky nymph
#

Like this is what happened...

#

They were like...

#

OH POG! BIS LIST!

#

DONE AND DONE

#

Problem is...

#

That's at the TOP of the page.

shadow tapir
#

mmmhm

plucky nymph
#

But then you have 4pc SC options, and 6p SC options.

#

But then...

#

there are NUMBERS.

#

388?!

#

Is that higher or lower than 375!?

#

The 6pc sets are all ~10 higher.

#

Raw stats wise Devilsaur is better, still requires 6pc SC.

#

S I M P L E

maiden cave
#

are you ok you seem a bit excited

plucky nymph
#

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT LISTS

#

OF COURSE I AM EXCITED.

sharp grotto
#

Lol!

#

Lol now they are saying I should ATLEAST be looking to have 20% with having weap skill at 308

shadow tapir
#

20% hit??

#

wtf

vocal hornet
#

@plucky nymph ERRYBODY MATH MATH MATH MATH

shadow tapir
#

Also tell them theyre moving goal posts

#

Pretty obvious sign of a lost argument

shadow tapir
#

"You really want 35% hit so all your whites hit"

#

So dumb lol

marble dune
#

abort guild

vocal hornet
#

whatever. just do big deeps.

sharp grotto
#

I asked the rogue that just said that... what are you at?

sharp grotto
#

He said “I’m at 9% I’m struggling to get more”

#

....

vocal hornet
#

there are only so many slots.

shadow tapir
#

What an idiot lol

sharp grotto
#

See I don’t want to argue with them or anything man, I just want to clear up that I’m not spouting lies and shit

vocal hornet
#

this is why I wanted a simc for classic. jesus. people are so bad at this game.
