Shadows AA line - Page 2

every endline needs 2 points numbnuts. It takes 24 points to fill a line so that at full AA you can not fill 3 lines. If it took 23 points you could fill 3 lines.

Shadows- General - hearty con 5 , swift journey 5. Scout - Quick strike 5, sinister 5, offensive 5, evasive Rogue -Flurry 5, CoB 5, Battle end 5, poison mast 5, essence. Brigand- Full 30 in. Both endlines of course. Avast Ye and Dispatched upgrades first. Sidestab and SB, torn between the tox mit and the savvy upgrade for the last 6 points...probably 5 in 1 and 1 in the other. Depends how the tox mit actually works.

Pretty sure the cap for shadow tree is 60AA, correct me if I am wrong. But if the cap is 60, your shadow tree will never work as you are at 47 right now.

For Rogue you would be better off with 4-1 in INT and only 6 in each of the second STR and AGI and toss those 16 points in STA at 4-4-8 for the +8% HP.

You might be right. If the Shadow cap is 60 then I've got some reworking to do.

As for the rogue line. I have been asking myself that question lately as well. When I was leveling WtP was important enough to merit 8 points. Raiding it is something to hit when all the other cas are down. Even in instance runs it doesn't rank the importance it used to. Torp Strike even less. Boot dagger otoh I use frequently. Does cutting ranks only cut damage or does it cut hit rate as well?

Yeah, I'm an idiot. It does clearly say 60 points at the bottom...

p sure it only cuts damage from boot dagger about 150 going from 8-1. WtP is almost worthless raiding, very few mobs it works on, p much heroic adds on some RoK bosses. 6 pts in WtP should be good enough for any emergency situations in TSO instances since most bosses are stun immune but WtP and the root generally work.

for raiding i have wtp paired with whatever the 2nd from Str line is. the dmg from both is the worst of like all my CAs and I always have a swash to do Tswipe so i am not specced for it and do FD instead to avoid AEs or just not die on wipes
