    If you are at the bottom of the pack right now, you're doing a lot of things wrong.

    On topic : Idk why they list SS and Eviscerate on Assassination but oh well. Subtlety changes look like a buff, will have to wait for sim results. Assassination was buffed less than I expected, thought they would butcher Sub to get people to play sin.

    Kinda sad about the Killing Spree nerf, was fun cheesing few mechanics with it, curse you pvp!

    I have no idea what they're trying to do with Shuriken Toss, I'd love it to be a viable alternative in fights with lowish uptime though.

    well it's not my personal problem since i play quite good at around 90-95th perecentile but still get beaten by ppl with 70th so yeah thats that. what im trying to say is they buffed rogues thats true but we need those buffs why do they buff hunters ? i know it might be just be a couple of buffs and couple of nerfs but hunturds are in a great spot right now so why buff them even more ?

    If they are going to kill killing spree pvp fix it in pve at least. Make killing spree not cc you anymore.

    i hope this only applies to pvp and not pve if they nerf it for both then holy shit there will be a small shitstorm coming at them .... since we are so many rogues left there is not enough manpower for a huge shitstorm

    It just needs to go in a new tier. I tried it a few times on H Thok farm for funsies, it's just too hard to replace such critical DPS abilities with Shuriken Toss....now give it to me over like...combat readiness. Then we'll get some nifty uses.

    Sub will be strong in PvP again, and combat will be in the shitter. How it should be tbh, combat at the moment is criminally dumb.

    Sub 4pc looks pretty nice. Wonder if that will push shadow focus ahead of subterfuge + GoV (assuming they don't fix it).

    They need to stop buffing all three specs at the same time, if they want people to play Assassination. It's always going to be behind the other two.

    Interesting sub 4 pc. Thats going to add another dimension to an already complicated spec, I like it.

  17. #17
    Keen to mainspec Combat full time with buffs and new 4p, curious if the 2p AD will be buffed by 4p. Curious to see the end end result.

    the problem is all 3 specs lack damage compared to other classes but thats their own fault overbuffing some classes resulted in rogues lacking behind.

    There are also new class-specific trinkets, too.

    Subtlety: Increases the damage of Ambush and Garrote by 75%.
    Assassination: Envenom also increases the critical strike chance of Mutilate and Dispatch by 30%.
    Combat: Your Eviscerate now hurls a blade at the target, with a 20 yard range, and deals 60% additional damage.

    These are the normal versions of the trinket, but judging by the numbers on trinkets for other classes, the percentages probably will be changed.

    think the sub changes are pretty dps neutral
