do you think rain of arrows is competitive with death trap for dps?

[@nintandao64]

I've seen a clip of a player using Rain of Arrows where the damage is purely the damage of the spell itself and they cleared it with at least half the time remaining on T100. My setup is focused around the Poison Imbuement damage, and while it can do T100 it doesn't do it THAT fast. I can see it being close to DTrap but I'd be surprised if it can match it. You can't go wrong with either, both can clear all content with ease.

[@Bajonkas]

also what do you use until you get shaco?

[@nintandao64]

All the best builds I've tried do require a Mythic Unique, with one exception: Dance of Knives with Victimize. Most players agree that there's some strange buggy damage happening with Victimize and it may require a look at from the devs, but if it doesn't change then that's 100% the build I'm going to be leveling with and gearing with until I find a Shako or Andy's.

same lazy development with a boss with a lot of life

[@nintandao64]

They're still somewhat beefy, but nowhere close to how horrible it is on live. The real issue atm is how far ahead the best builds are for both single target and AoE, where some builds have only high DPS for one of those categories. I've tried about 12 rogue setups so far and all of them can handle T90-95's fairly well, have great AoE, but really terrible single target. Balancing the boss HP and build single target DPS is a thin line to tread on because if you only tweak their HP and everything else is constant, builds like Death Trap are going to shred them from 100% to 0 on the first stagger.
