Default Double up Stealth change

When did they remove snicker (our single target taunt) from double up?

It's on the examine list, not on the popup list... does it really matter though?

Do I need to call the brigand licensing bureau and let them know you've been wasting double ups on snicker?!

It doesn't double up snicker.

And in duels and when you need to strip reflects, its evil.

our taunt is the only reason we do so well vs healers in 1v1 PvP compared to the other scouts. i have max AA's into it, use it whenever it's up, and double it up whenever possible. it's by far our best ability vs healers. it'll turn a 3 minute powerdrain fight vs a warden or templar into a 30 second victory.

don't hate on it just because it has limited use in PVE ;)

in a duel on a PVE server, or on a PVP server? L80, or on a lowbie PVP alt? both players fully raid geared?

duels do not use the proper PVP ruleset, and fight the same as if you were in the arena (i.e. not anything like actual PVP combat). certain classes become a lot more powerful in PVE arena/duels because their abilities arent crippled as much as they should be under the PVP ruleset.

also, you should fight some of the exiled wardens/templars/mystics in the raid guilds on Nagafen... we have probably the best raid geared templar WW in my guild, and when he mirror specs to his PvP (Steadfast/etc) spec he's an absolute beast in PvP. =) (now granted, I can usually still kill him, but it turns into a power drain fight.)

there's a big difference between dueling someone on a PVE server and fighting someone in actual PVP combat on a PVP server where they are used to having to fight for their own safety every time they leave town. brigands are naturally easy to 1v1 with, and even unexperienced PVE'ers can do well with them in 1v1 matches... many other classes do not fall into that pattern.

Oh Become, stop pretending like you're experienced in PvP as a Brigand.

In raid vs. raid fights I put my taunt and Double Up on all my target macros... it strips double the buffs so why the fuck not?

Healers 1v1 are extremely easy to kill, Double Up taunt or not. I'm talking PvP rules, not the queer as shit duel rules.

PS. I beat Istaril at lvl 75 with no t8 spells~

and he most likely had little or none of his T8 raid gear, or his PvP spec. a cleric in raiding spec (without Steadfast) is easy as hell to take down. it's night and day.

however, a raid geared warden or templar with a PVP AA spec can make for a damn long fight in 1v1. yeah, you'll still probably win, but you can't just burst DPS them down all the time like you can with most other people.
