Tips

• Slice and Dice is the best finishing move to use in raid situations. It increases white damage by 40%, and as most damage in a raid comes from white damage, it should always be up.
• The best strategy for slice and dice in raid setups is as follows: [Garrote] and immediately cast slice and dice (SnD), build 3 combo points and refresh SnD slightly before it ends, then build 5 combo points and refresh just before it is about to end / energy would tick over 100. At this point you can alternate 5 combo point SnD and [Rupture] until the boss is dead.

Notes

• The 3 piece bonus of the Emblems of Veiled Shadows armor set reduces the energy cost of Slice and Dice by 10, for a total of 15 energy.
• The 2 piece set bonus of the Netherblade set, rogue tier 4, increases the duration of Slice and Dice by 3 seconds.
• The 2 piece set bonus of the Slayer's Armor set, rogue tier 6, increases the haste of Slice and Dice by 5%.
