well I was going threw the Rogue forums on WoW.com cause the servers were do, when I came upon the biggest epic fail know to rogue kinda! This rogue wrote a strategy on how Mut rogues should fight, and I'm here to give you the biggest rofl you'll get today
ready
set
ROFL!
#1 stop using cheapshot as ur opener, this is not sub spec, or combat, and stunlocking takes aways from the burst damage, the object is to drop your opponent as fast as possible, not use up your energy on stuns, only use kidney shot for the final blow, after the u do the 5 point (improved) kidney shot, it will set u up for your final mutilate. Use shiv, as opener, (if fighting melee, followed with dismantle) to apply instant poison, which also apply's cripple poison now, in assas tree, that brings your mutilate damage way up.
#2 throw out your SS key, you wont use it, you use shiv to apply poisons, and then the rest of the time your using mutilates, plus with instant poison on ur shiv, and the fact that u should have a heavy hitting off hand dagger, if your doing assas PVP, it costs less energy, and does just as much damage when u have instant poison on it, you get the 400 something damage from instant poisons, plus your off hand damage, and it applys Crippling poison, to maximize your mutilates damage.
You simply need to adapt to a new playing style, I know 90% of you, are thinking, Oh shiat, no cheap shot!!! But... but... but, I thought we rogues were suppose to stunlock, NO DONT do it, assas spec is just so easy and simple to use, not much thinking involved, just put out damage as fast as possible, the moment u break stealth, half the time you will drop the pallys so fast, that they wont even be ready to bubble.
have fun! and remember its for the lulz!
