Game Mechanics: Assassinate

[Silent]

The patch definitely did change the Assassination rate for sure, Not entirely sure how much but its better now then it was before. This was picture is from right after the patch. Prior to that,
I would be lucky to see even 1 assassinate per 15-18 hours of playing time though only a few mobs I fought would be in level(ie these entrance chardok mobs, seb, solb etc)

Now I get them regularly, Not overwhelmingly a lot. But I will still see 2-3 per raid at least. This screenshot is probably just good luck and random number generation but I thought it was pretty neat
at the time because I just straight instagibbed 2 mobs within 5 secondsof each other.

I do not think it is broken, but fixed. People claiming rogues are 'abusing' this tactic in lower mob level areas like solb efreeti camp to PL people are mistaken, I PL people there time to time and its just as rare as anywhere else. Might see one every 2 hours if that.

on live during this era a 60 rogue in seb was always amazing because of the number of assassinates

I always thought it was lower assassinate rate here when compared to live.

+1 to this, was always hilarious down there because you'd straight up be destroying shit with it.

The patch did not increase the rate at which Assassinate fires, but removed the flag that the mob had to be unengaged and another flag which could have been preventing proper assassinates. It should now be working properly. It seems like rogues are going OP, but people are actually seeing assassinations while xping rather than farming green trash.

Not sure what something about assassinate is doing in this thread, but removed the aggro check. Also removed another check that might have prevented it from working correctly. You're lucky I played a rogue back in the day.

what a horrible ui
what did i say about posting screenshots?

[Silent]

You said nothing, Nor did the red server need to follow me into game mechanics(Though I don't mind Sektor, Just you.)

As for exping, Assassinate only comes at level 60 so this will mostly only benefit power leveling others if that. Even then like I said the chance to actually do it is still so low that its not even close to being broken or too high a chance. In a exp situation I would trade the current chance of assassination for a chanter haste any day in terms for dps, While insta killing a mob is nice its just as easy to double 500+ a mob and drop it with 100dps+ in 15 seconds then rely on a 32k 0.5%(made up numberz) chance to hit.
