Tips and Tactics

Ideal for pulls of two, or coping with sudden adds or spawns, it helps whittle away a second opponent while fighting a first. Combo up with Ability rogue slicedice [Sweeping Strikes] Arms Talent Ability for 4 hits per swing.

For three or more enemies, use Ability whirlwind [Whirlwind] instead, and for single enemies, use Ability rogue ambush [Heroic Strike].

This skill gets more damage per rage when used with a slow weapon. When used with a fast weapon, it is usually just a waste of rage.
