Puppet said:SB's are the best Assassins; they just all whiny bastards who play the class.
Atleast SB can spec out of Viper3 and voilla he didnt waste a 30 points of RA's which works on ALL classes except Nightshades. Not a too bad trade-off IMO.
In the meantime he could get Phoebus Necklace and totally rape other assassins with 75% style-reduction, where other assassins cant get that. Combined with more HP and highest CON race available to assasins this does add up.
Left-Axe is far superiour when it comes to applying poisons quick and reliable to the enemy. Also the ability to use Malice Axe in your offhand and still make it proc alot while bashing with a heater/freezer-mainhand on those other sneaks is a big plus. That outweights the 'omg I do only 87.5% mainhand damage' whines by far IMO.
Surely SB's need to work 'harder' to be competativer (healer bot for haste; shaman for spec-buffs, spec-AF charges) but once you did that stuff you're prolly king of the hill with a Shadowblade.
