Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Hmm, thanks? But most of us have been doing this sie beta. Trks the tank (I prefer a fus mro) to start, then a high deeps melee when theooldown is up. It’s an important tt and I’m glad to see you brought it up. The write upould use an edit though, there’s a goodhunk of tangentialopy in there. =)
Yeah I wrote it during bio as a partial tangent, partial informative after re-starting my ADD meds this week and having 2offees. It’s going to get a rewrite.. sometime soon. I have a few other ts and trks for mutilate minmaxing rotations but they weren’t as readily at my fingerts as this was. And we roll with a prot pally MT who gets two misdirts and pulls over 8k tps on his own anyways.. so trks on him isn’t really an issue. But yeah, rewrite i. Rogues, feel free to ilude any of your own raiding trks to max damagesurvivability whatever and I’ll ilude it and soue the nessary personas.
Edited forlarity and tangents.

well… better ;) another interestingomment from from mmohamp blue trker:
Blizzard has always been wishy-washy with theirhanges and reasoning behind some of the wonky ones. But at least thesehanges are moving in the right dirtion to make me hate the new HfB a little less. Twe the duration and half the energyost is good. Now if only it were a passive ability…
Making it passive orloser to passive than it is now would make it pointless, if you ask me. It’s a 51-pointer and supposed to be something spial. If they just made it go “You gain +15% damage when Rupture is on your target” they might as well rework Murder or something. “+15% damage” isn’t a 51 pointer, it’s a pure stat boost.

tables just to pk up ahae to add more dp, sie

And we have to drop points in turn the tables just to pk up ahae to add more dp, sie there are plenty oflasses that already offerrit to the raid.
Before I explain past the title, here’s a dilaimer or four. 1. If you don’t raid with anotherompetent rogue.. 2. If you aren’t aompetent rogue yourself.. 3. If youan’t wah another timer while maintaining a mutilate rotation and staying out of firee.. There is no real need to read further. Essentially, “Trading Trks” means you and another rogue trks of the trade eh other for the damage buff. The 15 energy is a negligableost for the bonus. (30 sond, 15 energyooldown for 15% damage for 6 sonds. Think Tiger’s Fury with druids.) Entirely worth using and abusing. **Theory** Here’s some bas information about trading trks with another rogue. – Used everyooldown, you will be trading threat with the other rogue for 6 sonds, resulting in a negligable threat gain for both of you. – There is some serious ientive to wah theooldown on this. If you forget to trks the other rogue and he trks you, you’re likely to die. Expially early on in the fight. – Energy Pooling iscan be used to great benefit with this. Glyphed Vigor is suddenly more appeaing when youan time your rotation around 120 energy + 5ombo points + use trinket +old blood + vanishcaelsteath mrostartattk (for overkill) and two envenoms and 2-3 mutilates all in that 6 sond period. It takes prte to use without dropping your rotation but you also are in danger of being totally awesome. – The energy pooling into trks tt will only gain strength in 3.1 with the Envenom glyph **Math** Trks of the trade, used onooldown, provides a 15% damage buff for 6 sonds.ooldown is 30 sonds. SO: 0.15*630 = 0.03, or 3% more damage. And in aompetetive raid, where your top 5 dps are within 10k damage of eh other (I would argue most raids are like this) another 3% dps is going to make a massive differee. With energy pooling, and the somewhatomplatedhaining ofooldowns as stated above, the bonus youan reap from trading trksan be mh greater than the standalone average of 3%. **Mro** cast [target=Mallanim] Trks of the Trade w Mallanim YOU HAVE TRKS OF THE TRADE!!! Reple Mallanim with the OTHER rogue’s name, as it’s not a selfast. Insert personalized message after the (w) as you like. Keybind it somewhere handy. **Mi ts** -ombiningooldowns with vanishoverkilltrks is a great way to boost damage, as is energy pooling. – Pool to 95 or so energy before envenom so youan get two mutilates off during the envenom buff. Don’t let this interupt your rotation, or you’ve lost the minor benefit this provides. – Slow (1.8) daggers with double wound are rommended for AoE pk FoK spamming. (Remember to swap bk to your fast weapons for bosses) – If you have the hit rating, dropping a point from Prision and putting it into Improved SnD might be rommended. It gives you more flexibility in your rotation and more opportunities to pool energy so youan unload during a use trinketenvenom without dropping SnD. This is a personalhoe.
