I hate the fact that our traits aren't compatible for all situations. For example, you got fury warrior; pick up x3 Cold, hold steel blood and bam, that's good for both aoe and single. Outlaw rogue, too. You get either 3 Deadshot or x3 Ace and that's good for both aoe and single. While assassination is stuck on deciding whether he should go single or aoe azerite(which is double the amount of farming time) on dungeons.
I am 441 assassination closing in neck 65(I could've gotten 65 long time ago, but I cba play rogue, it's too bad) 2k io, so I have an idea or two on assassination.
If you choose to go x3 shrouded, your dps plummets after garrotes falls down.
If you go x3 echoing you're sacrificing a lot of single target dps.
If you go x3 twist, you're sacrificing aoe dmg.
If you go x2 of each, that won't be as effective. Why? Cause trait stacking.
This is the first time where I feel assassination rogue is at its rock bottom state.
It's bad.
The essences are no help at all.
Bote3 gives us 1 big evenom.
Beam, well, decent, not that great.
Condescending high cd.
Lucid as minor is good.
What is up? What's the solution here?
I don't want to go outlaw cause fuck that shitty rng spec.
