Outlaw - Finishers at 5cp or 6cp?

[Twix]

As an outlaw rogue, is it better to always use finishers when you have 6cp? Haven't found a guide that compares the difference between using finishers at 5cp or 6cp.

never cast another SS if ur on 5 CP

(unless the mob would die before your next RT

In the long run, casting RT at 5 if you have no guaranteed way of getting to 6 without overcapping (eg you have an Opportunity proc and do NOT have Quick Draw) will provide a very slight benefit to your sustained DPS. But not terribly noticeable.

If the mob would die before your next RT though, fuck it - SS again for 6cp.

Generally speaking, 5. Finishers get really cheap after you get the traits to reduce Run Through's cost, and the chance of overcapping is way too high after 5.

Obvious exception is when using Between the Eyes for the stun.

5 is good enough, never SS at 5. If you have a Pistol Shot proc at 5 AND you don't run Quick Draw, it is safe to use Pistol Shot before the finisher.

unless broadsides..then you finish with 5 even with PS procc without QD
