Improvements

Notes

  • If there is more than one enemy in range, you may end up at the enemy you don't want to attack at the moment.
  • Killing Spree works with Ability warrior punishingblow [Blade Flurry], so popping both can give five large hits on two nearby enemies each, and as such is very useful when fighting multiple mobs.
  • Killing Spree also deals incredible damage to single targets and quite often is more effective and reliable when other targets are not in range.
  • Since Killing Spree uses weapon damage, it deals more damage with slow weapons.
  • During Killing Spree, you continue to melee. Your melee swings will benefit from the 20% damage bonus provided by Killing Spree, and you should further enhance this by using Ability rogue slicedice [Slice and Dice].
  • Spell shadow shadowworddominate [Adrenaline Rush]'s 20% increase to attack speed will also enhance your melee swings during Killing Spree, but since you cannot use abilities while Killing Spree is active, you will lose the DPS provided by the energy regeneration bonus during that time.
  • While Killing Spree is active, all enemies will de-target the rogue, practically rendering the rogue immune to direct damage abilities (Area of Effects and existing Damage over Time debuffs will still hit the rogue).
