Assasination changes

Since everyone is doing it, here is my take on some small changes I think would revive the Sin spec:

  1. shadowStep now has 2 charges

  2. bring back toxicBlade from BFA and make it baseline - and if Target has rupture+garrote then toxicBlade 100% crit

  3. garrote from stealth applies 10sec SliceAndDice

I like those suggestions but would also settle for longer durations on garrote, rupture and SnD. You’re constantly having to refresh one of the three and leaves little opportunity to really get a bunch of envenoms in.

1: no

2: it’s already baked into shiv

3: no

Seriously? Garrote doesn’t even require combo points.

probs wont need shadowstep, u already have 60% perma slows and toxic blade is now shiv basically which is baseline and the 3rd one is sketch

Bring back garrote silence

its there dude

Oh is it?! My bad then, I thought it was just a dot now

Only when used from stealth

We’re not getting a silence on an 8sec cooldown.

I’m not following you.

Garotte has a 3 second silence when use from stealth. The cool down is whatever it takes to get a restealth. Unless something has changed.

He’s saying it’s always been from stealth.

It means that we’re not going to get a silence on an out of stealth garrote.

At least that’s my take on it

Id say Exsanguinate refreshes duration on garrote and rupture to max with the normal effect it has now. Creeping venom stacks an absorb heal effect. Bring master assassin talent up to 100% to make legendary diversity.

Maybe Ambush from stealth could have 10 sec SND, but not Garrote as it gives a silence already

Lol no.

lol for added effect.

Those ideas, i like them all. I would also really like to see a general return of Toxic blade and gouge too.

if i could buy enough blizzard stock Id try to get you hired for mut dev :slight_smile:

How is it the majority of Mut players don’t even know toxic blade was baked into shiv?

Toxic Blade is literally already baseline. With how many people there are that don’t seem to realize this, I wonder if that’s the reason Sin looks so bad in logs? lmao

It’s really sad at this point.

People play a spec and don’t even know basics trying to demand balance changes and buffs.

These people are why devs don’t actually read the forums.
