Quietus Quietus

Rogue · Subtlety · Row 6 of 7 · 5 ranks
NEW in Forever Requires Dirty Deeds

Quietus sits in row 6 of the Rogue Subtlety tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role, and you will need Dirty Deeds maxed first. It can take up to 5 points. Max it fully, or put in a few points just to open the rows below.

New in Forever. This talent never existed in Classic, so don't go looking for an old version to compare. There is none.

What Quietus does at each rank

A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.

  1. Rank 1: Your Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage abilities cause 2% more damage against targets below 35% health.
  2. Rank 2: Your Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage abilities cause 4% more damage against targets below 35% health.
  3. Rank 3: Your Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage abilities cause 6% more damage against targets below 35% health.
  4. Rank 4: Your Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage abilities cause 8% more damage against targets below 35% health.
  5. Rank 5: Your Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage abilities cause 10% more damage against targets below 35% health.

How to reach Quietus

Row 6 opens after you spend 25 points in the earlier Subtlety rows. Level 35 is the earliest you can pick up Quietus, and you will need Dirty Deeds maxed first.

Is Quietus worth the points?

Every rank makes the effect stronger, so putting in a few points while leveling is totally fine. Max it when the final rank is the heart of your endgame build. And if you only need it as a stepping stone, no shame in stopping early.
