3:00 master assassin bro. 100%%%%%%% mad crit on SD

[@vortraz2054]

You probably figured out by now but you can use mark to put up SnD while stealthed. So your opener is cheap garrote rupture. THEN you can kidney whenever you need to and thanks to internal bleeding its not a massive damage loss compared to envenom, and you even get the energy back (Assuming Internal bleeding still procs venomous wounds) I also prefer Sepsis for the extra cheapshots it gives us BUT theres something to be said about spreading the pressure around with bonespike and getting extra envenoms instead. Been playing pressure rogue draining healers mana for years cheers yo

[@dirtygerd9083]

I don't talent into exsang anymore that nerf was too harsh. I still like dtb the most, the burst window with envenom is pretty nuts and you don't need to pool your shivs for kingsbane.

Hey Pikaboo! I play assassination rogue and was wondering if you could link your single target build. I seem to be doing ok with the 4 poison build, but it takes a long time for my damage to ramp up. Or maybe i am just old lol. Either way, i enjoy the content thank you for posting! -- Froggee

thoughts on new tunings and rogue nerfs?

[@zacklubeck4274]

how you using kings bane when you dont have it equipped in the talent tree?

[@thebestkeyboardwarrior8790]

Does anyone know if you bone spike then Exsanguinate, does that bone spike bleed effect tick faster forever (or until target dies)? That shit seems broken...

[@jvlinatocfacebook]

Exsanguinate does snapshots, yeah

[@krelekari]

doesnt sepsis do more damage, and give a combo point, and have fatter insta with a fatter dot attatched? the draw towards bone spike is the ability to spike multiple people, from a range, and with a slightly less energy cost I thought

[@PixelCreep]

I prefer sepsis burst for sure.

[@erikarnesen6052]

Yeah, but you only have one chance every 1.5min to use it properly, bone spike has alot more utility and use all over imo. Sepsis is hella fun though, the sound is so satisfying. Also, with kingsbane and improved garrote in your deathmark duration, sepsis isn't really needed to kill with 2x shiv doing 40% healing reduction.

[@Rich-in6ds]

I feel like the skillcap for rogue doubled this expansion with the way their talent free introduces so many potential cooldowns and abilities into the burst windows. Assas literally has about 20 damage buttons before you even get into all their utility and defensives!

[@gavinhislop]

I guess this was before the Excanguinate nerf?

[@Handcannon77]

Youre losing a huge amount of DPS(at least 10%) by using Exsanguinate with Deathmark btw, you never want to exsang with deathmark unless youre 100% sure theyre just gonna die within the first 5 seconds because exsang also cuts the duration of Deathmark which is bad. In real games against good players that arent going to fall over in the opener youre gonna want to garrote>ER>rupture(can throw in a spike too if you want)>exsanguinate wait 5 sec for exsang to end THEN Deathmark>reapply garrote/rupture>kidney>shiv>kingsbane>CB envenom etc. The good thing about this too is that a lot of people are going to see you exsanguinate and probably bait out their trinket/ defensives before you even use your real burst which is probably gonna mean theres little to no chance they live Mark+kingsbane. Try it out when the season starts.

[@xkd495]
