[A View from Behind] Blinkstep

I had heard rumors, but I /scoffed and /huffed that the Blizz developers would actually do it. Yeah. Come patch 2.3, Shadowstep won't require stealth. Huh? We can...blink? Well, without the stun and bond removal, yes.

Ok, so its not really blink...but wow. Along with a couple of other changes, the Subtlety tree just might become a top performer among PvP specs once again. Not only will deep sub specced rogues be able to use Shadowstep in combat (what a great combo CoS + Shadowstep will be against frost mages!), but the Dirty Deeds talent will also increase damage from specials by 10/20% (respectively, based on 1/2 or 2/2 points) against targets below 35% health. Hemo is getting retooled as well, but there are no details. I would imagine that they are either going to increase the damage per rank that it adds to physical attacks or add a damage bonus similar to Sinister Strike. I'm pretty excited about these changes, as I leveled 60-70 as lewlstep, just because it was fun and I solo'd a ton. I will definately respec for a few days once 2.3 comes out, just for the sake of trying it out.

Usually I dont have lolstep, but I think its better now than it will be with the 40s cd on it.. 40s! if they just had changed it like its going to be and with the current 15s perhaps it wouldve been a little bit more worthy 41pt talent, but as a 41 pointer those 50% reduced threat should be more like 50% added hurt!:p Just my few cents now in the morning and yes Im grumpy in the mornings... Sorry for the big wall of crit
