Essentially, this enables the rogue to gain 3 (or 4-5 if [[Cheap Shot]] is used) [[combo points]] from his opener alone. If you also have 3 points [[Initiative]] and use this talent you will have a 75% chance of gaining 5 combo points using Cheap Shot.

* [[Preparation]] will immediately finish the cooldown on premeditation.
 
 
==Patch changes==
 
* {{Patch 4.0.1|note=No longer requires [[Preparation]].}}
 
* {{Patch 1.12.0|note=Now instant cast with a 30-yard range.|comment=Old: 1 second cast time, 5-yard range.}}
 
* {{Patch 1.6.0|note=Fixed a bug where the combo points gained using the ability were not properly removed after the duration expired. Also increased range and duration.}}
