||
| − | ''"What's that behind you? Oh, wait. It's me."'' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Shadowstep was added as the new 41 point talent in the Subtlety tree. It teleports you behind a target and gives you a damage bonus on your next ability. The tooltip read: |
||
| − | |||
| − | "Attempts to step through the shadows, instantly reappearing behind the target. The next backstab, ambush, or garrote within 10 seconds deals 20% more damage." |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Shadowstep in Patch 2.3 == |
||
| − | |||
| − | The ability is scheduled to be changed significantly in patch 2.3. The changes currently consist of: |
||
| − | * Shadowstep being useable out of stealth |
||
| − | * Range increased to 25 yards, with an 8 yard minimum range |
||
| − | * Movement speed increases by 70% for 3 secs |
||
| − | * Increases the damage of your next special attack by 20% (not limited to openers) |
||
| − | * Decreases the threat of your next special attack by 50% |
||
| − | * 30 second cooldown (Preparation now resets the cooldown on Shadowstep) |
||
| − | * You now leave combat after you Shadowstep, giving you the opportunity to Stealth behind your opponent if you were not in stealthed previously and/or in combat. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The exact wording of the 2.3 Shadowstep: |
||
| − | |||
| − | "Attempts to step through the shadows and reappear behind your enemy. The damage of your next ability is increased by 20% and the threat caused is reduced by 50%. Lasts 10 seconds." |

| − | == Functionality == |
||
| − | *Cost: 10 energy |
||
| − | *Cooldown: 30 seconds |
||
| − | * Buff: Movement speed increases by 70% for 3 secs and next special attack deals 20% more damage. The buff lasts 10 seconds or for 1 special attack. |

| − | == Tips == |
||
| − | |||
| − | Shadowstep replaces [[Cloak of Shadows]] as the final skill in the Subtlety tree. This skill greatly increases the functionality of any rogue willing to invest 41 points in Subtlety. |
||
| − | |||
| − | * The ability to cover up to 25 yards with increase movement speed gives a defining edge against opponents who like to kite the rogue from afar. Now you can just Shadowstep behind a [[Mage]] trying to land a nasty Pyroblast on you, and stun them. |
||
| − | |||
| − | * Extremely useful for chasing down runners and mounts. Vanish (if it isn't on cooldown), then Shadowstep + Cheapshot (You can also Gouge or use [[Crippling Poison]] on your OH) for a ranged stun or cripple. You can also Shadowstep while stealthed and Sap (Dirty Tricks makes this much more smooth) a mounted opponent, then do what you will with them. |
||
| − | |||
| − | * Careful when utilizing this talent near cliffs, especially in Outland. An unlucky rogue might accidentally send himself plummeting. Just cast [[Distract]] or wait for their back to be more sensible to Shadowstep behind. |
||
| − | |||
| − | * As of patch 2.3, Shadowstep can be used in combat. This gives the rogue the ability to dump aggro with Shadowstep, and worry much less about grabbing aggro with a big Ambush due to the 50% threat reduction. |
||
| − | |||
| − | * As of patch 2.3.2, the talent [[Preparation]] now resets the cooldown on Shadowstep. |
