Its not the way I play mine. I might toss a dot out here and there, but its def not the bread and butter of the build.Its pretty much a "DD" build that focuses on poisons, backstabs and certain SK lifetaps. At least thats where most of my dam comes from.
Most illusion items become all/all at legendary. Manastone exists but it sucks.
Thats additive flat dmg they are adding to daggers right? IDK, might be the way to go. Im doing doubles and even sometimes triples of 5K dmg backstabs (upwadrs of 10K is the highest I saw) with SK epic and Mylokars dagger in offhand. Not sure if backstab is calculated from main hand or both? But if those ROG daggers have a huge flat dmg increase, plus some of them have a backstab skill modifier on them, who knows, this might be the new hotness.
Yeah, it should put Myro dagger ahead of SK epic for MH, since white damage outside of BS is pretty poor. Then it's probably worth throwing Shaman epic in OH if you aren't SP capped or probably an Avatar weapon if you are.
LOL, there was a dude that came across my youtube feed, a WOW player that tried this server. And he wanted to recreate a WoW Hunter class. You know, send in pet, stand back and pew. Well he was almost there, he made a Ranger/BST/whatever the fuck and his pet just would not hold enough aggro from his plinking later on in levels when he bought a good bow. I was thinking to myself, he should have chose a Mage instead, I hear those mage pets are good tanks. I mean not a bad idea if it worked.
Either Monk or Rogue foundational builds seem to be the best for Melee DPS.
Nah its a big problem. Pets, even mage pets, just do not hold agro for shit. Not sure what the deal is but it needs to be looked at.
If he wanted to do that, he should've added Bard for faded memories. Total agro wipe that he'd just have to hit every so often.
Idk what they are gonna change with the 3x bonus for rogue daggers but backstab formula is:
ya i'd love it if they expanded it to all piercing weapons. I'd love to do some kind of zerker/rogue with a 2h piercing weapon.
Nope he specifically said this change is rogue only daggers when someone in stream asked why cant this be for all daggers. He said there was a problem why rogues were not using any daggers in game. So he wanted to solve it. He also said that some daggers in game already had these bonuses but he removed them all early on because it was all a fucking mess. Now hes adding them back in proper.
