The War Within Hero Talents Overview
Outlaw Rogue in the War Within
With The War Within's release being just around the corner, it's the perfect opportunity to go shopping for a new main character or to check in and see what new bells and whistles your current main is getting. With hero talents being the focus of the expansion, I would like to share my opinion and explain what I do and don't like about the ones that Outlaw Rogue has been given and help give people a more educated understanding of what they might be getting into if they main Outlaw in The War Within.
Hero Talent Showdown: Trickster vs. Fatebound
In The War Within Outlaw Rogue has two new hero talents Trickster and Fatebound. Trickster Outlaw Rogues focus on a passive proc called Unseen Blade which after procing 4 times upgrades your Dispatch into a Coup de Grace which does increased damage. The other focus of the tree is Killing Spree with talents such as Disorienting Strikes giving it a lower cooldown and Flawless Form giving us a stacking damage buff. On the flip side, Fatebound Rogues are focused on a proc called Hand of Fate, which causes you to flip a coin every time you cast a finisher.
