Is Saber Slash best for Rogue pvp now?

Think of all the gold people will buy for that staff

what? backstab costs 5 more energy than hemo and hits significantly harder

I hope there is some filthy rune for Hemo, where it applies a wound poison on steroids.

I think hemo needs way more supporting talents to be better.

And since Backstab has the rune i think its going to be better.

Hemo’s main purpose isn’t damage. It’s fast combo points. And it also hits hard with the right weapon because it’s not normalized.

Slow weapons hit very hard with hemo.

I just think hemo needs more supporting talents to be good.

Backstab rune edges it out for me.

I can see 800+ BS crits in p2 for 40 energy.

No I have had that weapon.

It’s like 500 crit ambush.

Backstab will be way less.

Armor also severly nerfs daggers.

Rogues already BS for 400 crits.

Nobody is talking about Combat.

What if they make combat the alpha pvp spec for phase 2, because it’s new and different?

They do not unless wold buffed.

Like you said 500 ambush, payo with world buffs ambushed for close to 800

Probably on very low armor player.

Armor nerfs daggers a LOT.

Well Payo is the greatest of all time so obviously he is going to pop an 800 ambush in the lair.

This is the rogue spec for P2.

Fatty evis subtlety spec.

yeha and backstab has edged out its niche since its for damage and efficient cp gen. youll change your mind the first time you die to a dagger rogue in a cheapshot at 40.

Nah I won’t. Evis is a fresh rank at 40.

A dagger rogue will lose to a hemo rogue.

Not to mention you can’t get critical subtlety talents as backstab. Unless you want wet noodle backstabs and worse stealth.

Idk.

I dont think a hemo rogue will 100-0 another rogue in their stun lock but a BS rogue 100% will.

Hemo rogue will 100% stun lock kill because you can blind at the end and do it again.

No one will survive two rounds of level 40 evis.

Your only hope is the rogue screws up.
