Assassination Rogue: Analysis of the 9.2 Tier Set Bonuses - A Lesson in DoT Compression

wowhead.com:

In the last two PTR builds, Assassination Rogue received a rework and bugfixes for their 9.2 Tier Set bonus! Our Assassination Rogue Guide Writer, Whispyr, has provided an updated hands-on look at all the recent changes to the Assassination Rogue Tier Set bonus which includes dispelling myths about DoT compression. Additional tuning on the Rogue Tier Set bonuses is expected soon.

Whispyr, our Assassination Rogue guide writer, has given more extensive thoughts on the Assassination Rogue Set bonus change! Updates and Reworks Following the initial disappointment of the 2 set bonus Grudge Match, it's refreshing to see a buff to the effect. The effect now reads «Shiv causes all enemies with 15 yards to take 40% increased damage from your bleeds and poisons». This is a welcome change especially for the mythic+ enjoyers as this will give a notable increase in aoe. The increase in single target is also quite potent and the set is breathing new life after the rework. There are still a couple of quirks that I feel should and need to be addressed, but the set as a whole is in a good place, and if it were to go live tomorrow, would be a welcome addition to our toolkit. I do however like talking about things, so this is going to be a bit longer than usual. If you aren't interested in any of it, here's a TLDR: Originally I said that the 2 piece required a lot of love, and possibly even an added bonus. This is the love it needed. It is still strong, even at 40% on Grudge
