[MadMonk 154]

T16 2P Bonus - When you generate a combo point from Revealing Strike's effect, Honor Among Thieves or Seal Fate, your next combo point generating ability has its energy cost reduced by 15. Stacks up to 5 times.

T16 4P Bonus - Killing Spree deals 10% more damage every time it strikes a target. Abilities against a target with Vendetta on it increase your mastery by 250 for 5 sec, stacking up to 20 times. Every time you Backstab, you have a 4% chance to replace your Backstab with Ambush that can be used regardless of Stealth.

Hi,

as the Assasinations guide is closed because of spam I try my best in this topic.

Why does it sound to me, that the 2P Bonus is only usefull for Subtlety Rogues.

1. Assasinations: You will never be able to stack up with Seal Fate. I mean it's nice to have a reduce of 15 energy but for what do you need the 5-times stack?

2. Combat: Will this change the priority for Revealing Strike? Or do I only use it every 20-24 seconds the refresh the buff?

 

Thanks for your help and comments

The 2-piece set bonus provides free energy.  That's all there is to it.  A free mutilate is nothing to sneeze at, ever.

4-piece bonus is so nice for Subtely cause it can happen all the time and not in certain cooldowns as others, Non-stealth ambush chance is fucking awesome when you can forever spam backstab with high haste.
