    Got it, thanks!!!
    And another question... Do you think the 2543 recovery is good? If it is not asking too much, what are your stats? To get a sense.

    SE is nerfed, i will be using whirlwind of blades in m3.

    The devs tend to not note everything in patch notes. ;p

    How exactly has it been nerfed? Can't seem to find any details anywhere.

    Scoundrel or Sab? Your build states you are using Sab but this post says scoundrel, jc... How would you differentiate the difference between the three.

    What is your recharge speed, your recovery doesn't matter, you should have atleast 25% recharge or so.

    Hop on the preview and check out the base dmg and try maxing on people, you'll find out how its nerfed. :p

    Yea i just respecced to scoundrel from sab.

    I'd say Exec is more crit focused (will be good in m3 with potb).

    Scoundrel is more flat dmg and daily focused.

    Saboteur is pretty high end, its only going to be good if you can land flurries consistently, it was lacking damage for me overall so i respecced. :P

    I don't understand why you can't give a straight answer to a simple question rather than turning into the Riddle Master. Jeez.

    Snow do you know what the new gears will be like in mod3 and if they will be better then the profound scoundrel set?

    Maybe you have a link to what they look like?

    I will never use Sky Flourish cause im not a pvorpal TR, i will continue using DF aslong as im a pbile TR.

    You can hop on the preview server to check it out yourself, but i will not be using the new armor, however, i will use the new daggers, will probably not bother with the enchants either. The reason why i wont switch to the new armor is cause the 4/4 bonus has no 25% or 30% more stealth. ;p

    Thanks for the answer!

    1 Set 4/4 bonus gives shield + heal if shield after a duration still up
    2 Set 4/4 bonus stacks power for a time

    both are randomly triggerd

    Thanks a lot for the great build and guide. would be better with a bit more explanation on rotation, strategies, screenshots and stuff like that. but hey, if someone gives you a free horse (mount), you don't check it's teeth.

    I have a question. I'm playing as a wood elf and initially rolled 10 int (with 6 upgrades and campfire boost i have 17 int) constitution is 12 (with campfire 13). do you think i can play this build well with this char or i need to reroll entirely?

    right now i've got 26.1% recharge speed. right now i'm using skulker and when in pvp it seems like i'm usually off by half a second-a second in my rotation and i tend to die just then. question is should i try to work for the profound set on this char or should i just reroll another TR?

    also take into consideration that i would like (at some point, not now) play competitive pvp.

    thanks a lot for everything!

    Reroll, especially if you want to play competitive, the rolls you have dont cut it, neither does the race. :P

    I have some vids on my yt chan but i play completely different now so yea i'll upload some new stuff sooner or later, i just always forget to record matches lol.

    A big disadvantage, if you played halfling before you will notice the difference between other races.

    My first TR with bad rolls was a human and the moment i rerolled to halfling the difference was huge, all cc was way shorter, especially with tenacity, and the passives from other races just dont make up for it.

    Hi Snow,

    I created my TR based on this build and I am also running a scoundrel set up, please advise why you are switching to Executioner in M3?

    Regards,

    Rex

    I'm personally not a big fan of my scoundrel build, the damage and ap gain is nice, but i don't have nimble dodge which i just don't like playing without. Its just personal prefference.
    But its mainly cause of my new item build in M3, i however don't want to post it in my thread yet cause i'm not sure if its effective until M3.

    Bloodbath and Shocking Execution.

    I swap one of these out for Courage Breaker or Whirlwind of Blades but only situational.

    I saw that your build is expensive for my time or cash. So I cant take this TR anyways. :/

    I am using your build and its working out really good for me, a question though.

    Will i notice the recharge speed loss with 6 defense slots?

    hey, I have some more questions :P

    assuming i chose to go Executioner with your build... do you really think "deadly momentum" is better than "critical teamwork" ?

    i mean, in order for deadly momentum to be efficient you'd need a decent crit chance, and critical teamwork gives you a very nice boost to crit chance (5%). also deadly momentum will only be good for me when i'm using DF, while critical teamwork is generally good for me.

    which generates another question, are you always using DF? i mean sometimes it seems better to slot GC instead like against rangers and sometimes CW... but maybe i'm wrong...

    and for the saboteur tree (in executioner build) wouldn't you say that cunning stalker is better than speed swindle? i mean the gain of 10% run speed only on a crit (in a build that doesn't focus on crit chance) seems just not as good as 20% AP gain while stealthed (in a perma build)... which would mean a lot more SE for me...

    again, could be wrong about a lot of things here but would love for you to clarify some things for me... so to make it orderly, the questions are :

    1. is deadly momentum better than critical teamwork ?
    2. is speed swindle better than cunning stalker ?
    3. are you always using DF as main at-will, or do you somtimes use differently?
    4. obviously SE is the main daily, but what is your second daily and when do you use it ?
    5. this build works on rotation between SS and ITC, but for 3rd encounter.. do you always use POtB or are there situations where you switch to a different encounter?

    Would love some info and clarity on those subjects... again, thanks a lot for the great build :)

    You ask alot of good questions.

    1. Personally i agree with you with that critical teamwork is better then deadly momentum. maxed out deadly momentum gives 15% crit sev. BUT critical teamwork ALWAYS gives 5% crit chance to you and multiple others. You are not a 50% crit build with this build so having critical teamwork is defenatly better.
    2. Its personal preference. You are still critting alot so in a combat situation you have 20% more run speed then your target. (+10% for you -10% for him) It also makes up for easier DF to land when you the enemy has lesser movementspeed.
    3. In pvp your at wills should be DF and CoS, some people like gloaming cut but you dont use a vorpal with this build. DF is by far superior when using a P.bile.
    4. Bloodbath should be your second daily. You will use SE most the time, however when you use PoTB from stealth (pusles faster) and then instantly bloodbath a target you get insane burst (when you only hit 1 target) SE is best for GWF/GF/DC but CW/HR have alot of dodges and you cant dodge a PoTB/bloodbath combo.(often PoTB/bloodbath will do over 60% life on PUGS)
    Also bloodbath gives you a little time to breath when you run out of stealth and have nothing to protect you.
    5. The only viable build atm is SS/ITS/PoTB. This is the best build for pvp at any level. Even if you dont use a high CON/INT build with a P.bile its still the best. So yes always use PoTB in pvp.

    Thanks a lot for all the great information, I was hoping to get an opinion on these from the OP but your answers really enlightened me, so thanks a lot.

    I'm definitely going to give that bloodbath/potb combo a try, never tried it before but i do remember seeing other rogues at it.. never accured to me to try it my self...
