Get A Headstart On Mobs (Rogue)

[fireb0rn]

It's actually very stupid, if you somehow manage to screw this up, the mob evades = wasted time, combo points & money, and now the mobs on full HP

If you let the mob evade, you're stupid. good point though, I can see how wasting vanishing powder could be a huge deal, seeing as how it stacks up to 20 and costs <15c.

Any rogue who doesn't use cooldowns while grinding or questing either doesn't know how to maximize their xp/hr, or is afraid of getting killed in PvP because they can't play without cooldowns. this is common sense and really should not have been posted here.

I never said to do this in the middle of battle, you should be able to get 5 combo points quickly and not much hp taken off teh mob if its tough. THEN you vanish and let ur hp/energy regen and even if teh mob is at full hp you will have better dps than if you hadn't done this. Also vanish regents dont cost much at all, so i dont know how that could be a problem.

Yeah, the vanish has a nasty cooldown, but here's how I take harder guys on:

Stealth in, Cheap Shot, Slice n Dice, SS, SS, SS, SS, SS, Evis (and if they still have a lot of life left), vanish, Cheap Shot, Slice n Dice, SS, SS, SS, SS, SS, Evis.

I'm not knocking the OP, and I'm sure that any combat rogue knows this already.

I found this out when I was grinding the other day.

1. Get 5 combo points on a mob.
2. Vanish.
3. Wait for Hp and energy to regenerate.
4. Use a combo move on your mob in the beginning of battle.

This can be used on hard mobs, such as elites for group quests, to get a head start on damage.

An easier (and cheaper) solution would be to:

1. Get 5 combo points on a mob.
2. Run away till it leashes.
So on and so forth.

I just tried that, the combo points disapear when you run away.
