    Also hp and DR have been increased.

    I almost thought it was buffed. Hitting 90k crits with it against decently geared pugs on my level 62 TR. I would put arpen right up there with power to be honest, a close second.

    TR has been nerved as DPS class in mod 6 imo. sure you can always go stealthy sab just for the lolz of pvp, but really mod 6 forces me for survivability reasons to play my TR in a way i do not enjoy.

    Just curious when you say 90k crit, is that just the lashing blade crit damage or is it the LB crit + the procs from enchants, boons, and SD?

    Pretty sure it's some enchants and crazy gear. I can easily recod 1.6k TR without OP gear, max i got with LB was around 45k with MI-Exe to target below 70% hp.

    I have pretty much <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> gear. A greater vorpal on the castle never mh/oh set, rank 7 and 8 radiants and rank 7 dark on offense slots, a mix of the old profound pvp gear with dragon armor and hat, and the newer blue rings for arpen and deflect, "Piercing ring of parrying". In other words, I stack power and arpen. Its not full on glass cannon because I do stack some tenacity from the profound gear, but it does prioritize arpen and power over tenacity. When I start to have problems between stealth and itc, I'll go for more tenacity.

    I am pretty sure the 90k lashing crit is from every damage feat in the mi exec tree going off at the same time, aside from SoD. Average lashing crit for me is between 40 and 80k. If my ping is good I'll slot dazing strike instead because I am comfortable taking out more than one enemy via chain daze (Dazing Strike>Duelists Flurry>Smoke Bomb>Dazing Strike>Duelists flurry) that lasts like 10 seconds.

    btw there is an infamous GF back in action from the days of yore doing over 300k anvil of doom crits, so I really don't find my lashing damage to be that great, or maybe barely even adequate.

    Deja vu, I thought I wrote this response already 0_o

    That's not crappy gear. I have no enchants yet, and rank 5-6 max, though full pvp exec set. They nerfed most dazzles duration so anything except smoke bomb is worthless imo. Also im using GC instead of DF, because DF burn stealth way too fast. My 3rd encounter power is Bait & Switch, because it doesnt require target unlike shadow strike and casting animation doesnt take forever.

    I have a parse of a gf hitting for over 1.2 million crit. Now this was a debuffed dragon in WoD, but my same LB in that time was 140k. The GF was also the top damage %, and did more than double damage of the next closest.
