PVP Assassination openers..

[Sicarius87]

I personally have a lot of fun (and it works well) with the following opener (btw I take Cloak and Dagger, Subterfuge and para poison):

Garrote
SnD (gives energy regen!)
Cheap
Ambush/mutilate
Rupture
Shiv
MoD Envenom or Kidney (check para stacks)
disarm / cloak / evasion or Shadowmeld --> stealth

Enemy can do very little and the dots just tick away ^^

As assassination snd does not return energy. Only sub does.

SnD is still good to get up because it increases poison proc rate

For sure. But I just wanted to clarify that SnD does not return energy as assassination.

Haste tooltip says it increases energy regen. But apparantly it only affects weapon speed and nothing else.
My bad!

Melee attack speed. It's not about hasteor energy regen. Just how much quicker you swing your weapons.

I believe he's talking about the Relentless Strikes chance, 20% to gain +25 energy.

Edit: Never mind, I didn't read his next post...
