I'd say rob because it does more damage than even sidestab, and shares the same 10s recast.

But it could be different in beta.

lyasa · 11-11-2007, 10:46 PM

it is, but also usually requires a 1s lead in spell to get it done.

and i just noticed. that's a 6s delay 1h hander. that's a slow weapon. that's a huge top end.

Weapon from a group instance boss - fabled drop.

valadil · 11-12-2007, 01:31 AM

87% double attack self buffed from gear (no contested mayong bracers either) with dirge was at 97% with illy was at 123% doulbe attack

That's just fucking retarded.

Didn't they just revamp the int line to make it more useful because they didn't want to trivialize specs?

May have overlooked it, but I think Hideaway didn't get upgraded either, or i totally missed it!

AA's are still the same

- I went remained DW and went the Int line to get Boot Dagger, which ain't that bad imho (considering what other options one has while DWing)

The expansion, what i have seen so far seem to have a lot of item procs, I went through an instance in Sebils (forgot the name) and we had a +2 db attack +1 mele crit neck item from one of the mini bosses, the final named dropped legendary scout set item, which were well so & so.

What else, mobs hit much harder then EoF and other older zones, so be careful when you try and solol ur 1st RoK heroics!!

I've found with enough room to kite, Soloing heroics is still an option.

But its snare to where your gonna kite, double throw, WTP, go through your combat arts and stunning as much as possible till you run out of combat arts, and run out with snaring them... rinse / repeat.

Choadley · 11-12-2007, 10:56 AM

Even some of the green con heroics hit really hard up close.

I'm with Lyasa on Sidestab so far. That's what I chose on beta anyway. The reuse being fast, with no need for prerequisite stealth, seems to put it in front at the moment.

Taking INT for 8-8 makes Boot Dagger pretty useful for Rob. I made the macro for the combo and even in groups it was firing well and quickly. Hideaway always seemed to fail in that combo with Sailwind and a Monk in raid.

Full list of CAs that aren't upgraded...

Ruthless Cunning
Amazing Reflexes
Double Up (but it was updated to include new 71-80 CAs)
Hideaway
Deceitfulness
Appeal for Mercy
Entangle

Never found Boot Dagger to be worth the points you sink into it, since it (at least last time I checked) has a recovery time. 0.4 cast + 0.4 recovery = 0.8 for AA enhanced Sneak.

So basically the points you spend in Boot Dagger are for its damage, nothing else. And it's really not much for a 30 sec recast ability.
