Nice that we have a new MA Blood Relic with ToVs release. I've had such bad luck farming BRH.

Because the overall contribution of our damage as assassination is not affected as much as sub is by weapon damage

Think about it like this
Let's suppose Vendetta CD was 10s
In a 100s fight, you could use it 10 times
If the CD is reduced to 8s, you could use it 12.5 times
If the CD is reduced to 6s, you could use it 16.6 times
If the CD is reduced to 4s, you could use it 25 times
If the CD is reduced to 2s, you could use it 50 times
Noticed the jumps?
This is just so you can see the benefits of reducing something's cooldown a lot, it increases EXPONENTIALLY how many times you can use it on a fight, not linearly ( like Vendetta CD relics + legendary boots putting it to ~43s CD, that is ~8 uses on a 6min fight, instead of the normal ~4, LINES UP WITH EVERY KINGSBANE and even Vanish if you hold it only a few seconds, gets off CD a lil' earlier than Exsang actually, 80* extra seconds of +30% damage, ~520 extra energy because of the trait that refunds it all )
All good bro.

Looking at this. The Kingsbane proc at 1:45.333 does 54808 ; after that, Vendetta fades, and the next tick at 1:47.334 crits for 109615 which is exactly double of previous value
You can't test this this mid fight. KB gets 20% stronger for each poison application, so to properly test this, click off your poisons and find a target dummy. Make sure to take off any proc trinkets.
Apply KB and watch the ticks, let it go fully through. Then apply KB while vendetta is rolling, and watch as vendetta falls off. Then apply vendetta mid KB to fully flesh out all the possibilities.
Have you put an effort to check the footnotes on that drive document?
If you are playing AP, "Rupture is our biggest damage source." Argument doesn't have a base in this discussion. Explained:
Here is a log of Pinch's log from mythic nythendra
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...done&source=16
A boss with a mechanic of having you leave auto attacking/mutilating etc. When you leave the boss your rupture is still ticking. So on this boss rupture is valuable.
Where am I going with this? Here is why:
Even with a valuable rupture boss, Pinch did a total of 126 million damage. 30 million of it is Rupture.
You can see a list of other abilities with sums up to nearly 96 million damage.
Here is the question you wanna buff your 30 million damage? Or you wanna buff your 95 million may be 1 or may be 2 more times and also get a full energy bar and a damage proc?
Btw don't forget the fact that when you get 3xMA, every 2 minutes(every 2 minute vanish vendetta alignment) you get the biggest dmg version of "OUR BIGGEST DAMAGE SOURCE" (like your opener)

Sorry if like ... a month ago there weren't any "footnotes" and stuff like that on any of the guides ( both Stjern or the other one ), Master Assassin was just stated as "0 ilvl gain" ( on the ILVL one ) when compared to every other relic, I wondered why, if you read a few of the comments both myself and others made through the topic, you'd see we MANY TIMES argued in favor os MA relics instead of Rupture ones, that based on many things such as From the Shadows trait, higher uptime with bonus damage, more often "energy cap checkpoints" for EP users, Vanish alignment, stuff like that
Shouldn't the MA ones buff the entire 126m instead of only 96m?
With the boots and 2 vendetta relics i have it up for every exang. op as shiz, would take a huge ilvl bump to replace 30% damage with 50% uptime. Considering a 3rd vendetta relic (30 ilvl down) just to make sure this happens with downtine but might not be worth it, what are your thoughts guys?
