In fact WK has melee options, and with the new mod lashing blade might be a choice. HOWEVER, all powers that I use at this point are ranged. SS/VP/Blitz, DS/ST/CS. But most ranged damage rings are not the best option. They are decent middle ground rings if you just need something to fill. SS/VP are your best encounters and…
-
Hateful Knives should be your only primary daily. As a secondary you can choose whatever you want, but suggest something aoe like Killing Storm. (This being if your trying to play WK as ST / hybrid. If you are just making an aoe build then disregard)
-
Shirken Toss can absolutely use a buff whatever buff. But the good news is our most important at-will Dishearting Strike is finally getting some love. Cloud of Steel also but I will mess around with Cloud for a while and see if its worth swapping out Shirken. (WHen i say most important it doesn't mean it has to be your…
-
Not a skill I even use. Entering stealth reducing cooldowns is far more important for my playstyle. (i believe you are referring to first paragon choice but I might be wrong and if so disrgard). The upcoming changes will add some nice damage buffs so Iwouldnt worry about this much. (SoD + Ambush + Dagger)
-
I hear ya. For many reasons. Meta blo##. (But before I rant I will concede .... There are however things like artifacts that meta is still important. Having unique and well tested artifacts will make the run go much smoother. ) First off I am probably the only ST Whisperknife in game. While I am still behind the best of…

Attempted to run RC this morning well after the "fix". Patch issues patching MC and now I cant login to game at at. Now I am perpetually stuck in Cryptic's launcher window on startup " Trying to connect 1 2 3 4 5 times" fail. Wish you all luck in your future patching.

Let set the records straight. I never demanded anything .. they themselves said there will be compensation for our time and frustration. All I did was speculate and mention factiously what I would love to have as compensation and then warn others what the likelihood of the compensation would be given past history. Don't…
-
Let hope this compensation package is worth the long down time. Ill take a mystic lightning combat gem! A few choice packs for mystic insigs, a new assassin companion account wide and just to tip it off a 5 pack of mystic motes. Not getting my hopes up though cause my experiences with previous compensation packages are…
-
No do not remove VP. I used to think like you but I have change my tune. Learn how to use it. Aside from Hateful Knives, VP and Shadow Strike are a WK's most important encounter/daily. I have adapted. Lashing Blade was what I used to use but it is now obsolete for me (unless doing a ST boss and could use VP, SS and LB,…
-
I am also a dedicated WK rogue, however one thing about WK is there just too many ways one can play it so there is no general agreement on what needs upgrading. a) I DO use Vengeance Pursuit, its fine and interesting. When you need an aoe use it non stealthed, when you need boss ST damage use it stealthed. b) I use Shadow…
-
No it really does not keep the grind in circulation. It discourages people from even bothering. Whether its dungeons or anything else. Why bother running IC when I could just wait 2 weeks and buy the stuff for dirt cheap? Well if I know I can get the gear I want without having to roll the dice that gives a me a reason to…
-
Are you mad? Like cliniclly insane? or maybe you have a tomm weapon, or are a tank (and maybe dont want damage as much)and I can excuse you. Legion weapon are way the hell better than burnished, abaster or watchers.
-
So days later basicly putting life on hold farming maps trying to get my weapons. Id say at least 200 maps and so far I am lucky enough to have my offhand. That is not even getting into the issues that some are having getting maps at all. Am I supposed to quit my job and work full time grinding to get anything useful? And…
-
And yet another example ... maps for the Legion Gear in the new zone. Here I am grinding away map after map while some already have the full set and other have 1 piece. I can not say how hard some of those people are farming but it cant be much more than I am trying. I have a feeling that 3 weeks from now there will still…
-
Now your just making assumptions that while you are entitled to, have nothing to do with what I am concerned about. But for arguments sake lets say they did make such an adjustment. It is a very low chance that they would end up hurting my rotations (can not speak for yours). I will take a guaranteed 2 crits in my 4-6…
-
arazith In all my suggestions above its still possible to have complete success on crits. So the inverse argument you suggest is flat out wrong. In practice I see far more crit fails on my encounters/dailies then i do the other way around. Now I do not know what class you play so I can not speak for your rotations or…
-
Exactly. Waste AD on rolls do 50+ dungeons (in particular longer ones) and have nothing to show for it. It kind of sad that more players would rather farm juma bags and run codg than bother to run IC or Tomm. Not because we can not .. but rather the time/reward is far more worth it. Juma bags give more useful stuff then…
-
I am not looking for self -defeated responses. I am aware of the past, but giving up is not in my makeup. IF enough players bring this to light then there might be change. If everyone has this defeated attitude there will absolutely be no changes. So now ask why do they make the reward system as is? I think they are trying…
-
Yes it comes down to personal choice and play style mixing in the right feats / powers to blend with your play style and just simply knowing your class (and wearing the right type of gears...dont try to be a WK using your assassin melee gears). If you like Deft Strike then you will like Shadow Strike as they are simliarish…
-
Don't listen to this guy .... Whisperknife is more than fine and way more fun. However it does require some understanding that most people do not care to work at. For one who cares if you do not have shocking execution, Hateful Knives and Lurkers Assault are all you need from dailies. If used right (with SoD) they are much…
-
No beavis. I am using simple logic independent of modules. Read a skills description then ask yourself how do you get the best out of that skill. Then look at what the modules offer. I could care less what there intentions are in mod 16 or mod 15. Look purely at the skill then above all else ask can you get the most out of…
-
No the actual point is to give feedback to the developers which I am doing so that they can take what i give them and hopefully process it and make changes. The actual point is that there new changes are conflicting in logic and make the character worse off by completely mismatching skills and adding dumb changes. Will…
-
And you are both missing the actual point. Their logic of not allowing CD reduction and giving the most potent encounters to Assassin (which thus far is a useless path since there is no lurker assault among other things time will tell if new gear makes it viable) is a DIRECT CONFLICT with the principles of Shadow of Demise…
-
Apparently you suk at it then if you ended up changing to a sabo build. That said ... the new mod is neither exec nor sabo (so anymore chatter about either build pointless) it takes all the skills of rogue puts them in a hat and randomly assigns skills with no thought to whispering knife and assassin. Could the new mod end…

10 encounters is 60s secs (ish) is not spamming. that's averaging 1 per six seconds (and in truth your probably using 2-3 at a time assuming you start it with all your cd cleared). Shadow of Demise than would effectively be adding the damage from one encounter power at that rate. (2-3 if you dont enter stealth until all…

'Greatly reduced' effectively making the class virtually useless. Even in the old mod with 12k recovery and 60% AP gain i could still not spam my encounter over and over as you claim. I wonder sometimes if the developers are actually players cause the changes you have made are wonderful in theory but are horrid in reality.
