When a warrior hits intercept, hitting shadowstep quickly will teleport you to him, hence, switching positions. Useful tactic to evade intercept stun, or if you need to run off and stealth to get some health in an arena since they will not be able to get in range to melee you till their next intercept.

Works the same for charge I assume.

I've done that abit, Everyone Charges at a differnt time. Its all luck.
Its a cool thing when it happens tho.

True that, being a warrior though I know that when a rogue tries to get away, my first instinct is intercept and beat the crap out of him. Having your mouse ready to shadowstep with a quick reaction time could save ya.

Mouse ready?

b is Shadow step for me

[Ulgrim]

Shadowstep on 3 ! Also nice is in 2on2: to blind 1 of the enemys vanish after 5 sec and shs to him and sap

shadowstep on Page up+f12. Wouldn't call this an exploit more or less the mechanics of the game. Works for rogues sometimes, sometimes they get killed by the warrior they port into. But daaamn that rogue in that vid was baller. Of course if the warrior uses intervene, if he's any good, he'll get out of combat asap and catch you. If you've got time to stealth he's got time to charge. +rep 'cause it can be useful and i'm sure you rogues can be inventive with it. I don't play a rogue. shadowstep is actually keybound to my nuts.

EDIT: Post some vids from 3v3 or 5v5 doing this. Like have 2 41 spec rogues, one uses this when he intercepts, the other uses it on the warrior. In the vid you can do it with mages too. So there's 2 of the most popular dps classes in arenas OPd by rogues. I could think of a lot more uses but i'm sure you guys could come up with better plays with it. Time to roll a rogue.
