90% Midigation on Bladestorm (Double Post sry Rogue)

[Xnokt]

Don't really nowhere else to put this, but pretty much Bladestorm gets reduced to 400 damage with armageddon. (so think about it)

Feint (50% aoe damage) + cloak glyph (40%) damage

Wow feel so dumb for the double post so sorry.

Okay I can go into more detail about this now, pretty much the glyph of cloak of shadows allows 40% Melee damage reduction (Duh) and I didn't think about this at first but Bladestorm is considered an AoE so feint is 50% damage reduction against AoE (On a 10 second cooldown). So I decided to try and see if they both stacked turns out if they do.

The damage reduction is phenomenal. This may sound like common sense to some and I may be completely retarded, but it was news to everyone I mentioned it to. Once again so sorry for the double post

I doubt Blizz wanted rogues 90% mitigating a warrior's 51 pt talent.

Why don't you contribute instead of putting people down?

He is correct. This is infact Working As Intended, and EVERY time someone posts about reduction methods someone always says "I doubt blizzard wanted to...".

Blizzard test eveything extensively before going live, this is ofcourse known by blizzard and is working as intended.

Or you could just run away from it?

So there are no exploits then? If Blizzard intends everything? You can't know what Blizzard knows, you don't know what they intend and what they don't. Blizzard does make mistakes, that is how exploits happen. Shit leaks through, stuff changes when patching, people (Blizzard employs people) make mistakes. There's a reason Blizzard changes things so they don't stack (Berserker + Death Wish as an example), it's because they didn't intend somebody to have that much damage. Same thing here.

Any rogue who doesn't know to feint a warrior's bladestorm and run away, is terrible. Using cloak with the glyph and fient is NOT AN EXPLOIT. It doesn't just effect Bladestorm either so this topic is just riddle with sillyness.

It's a good tip for scrub rogues, nothing more.

I understand this is not an exploit. I just didn't know where else to put it. And I was bored and thought about combining them and in all honesty bladestorm with a hamstring is a rogues worst enemy because they can easily die in it, I believe I said it is common sense to some but hey to others it may not be /shrug.

There is also one thing people seem to be missing here. Damage reduction is never additive. This does not result in 90% damage reduction. Using this two abilities will actually result in a 70% damage reduction. Damage reduction is multiplicative, not additive.
