Remorseless Attacks Remorseless Attacks

Rogue · Assassination · Row 1 of 7 · 2 ranks
Changed from Classic

Remorseless Attacks sits in row 1 of the Rogue Assassination tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It can take up to 2 points. Max it fully, or put in a few points just to open the rows below.

Changed from Classic. This talent now works differently than in Classic, so read the ranks below before you spend any points.

What Remorseless Attacks 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: After killing a non-trivial enemy, gives you a 20% increased critical strike chance on your next Sinister Strike, Backstab, Ambush, Mutilate, or Ghostly Strike. Lasts 20 sec.
  2. Rank 2: After killing a non-trivial enemy, gives you a 40% increased critical strike chance on your next Sinister Strike, Backstab, Ambush, Mutilate, or Ghostly Strike. Lasts 20 sec.

How to reach Remorseless Attacks

Row 1 opens after you spend 0 points in the earlier Assassination rows. Level 10 is the earliest you can pick up Remorseless Attacks.

Is Remorseless Attacks 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.
