Patch 3.3 Mutilate DPS – Ruptureless Again?

Had a little time to mess around with the new content.  But the main thing everyone wants to know is what kind of buff did Assassination really get?

Before the patch I was hitting 3.8K (peaks around 4k) DPS unbuffed on the Dummy.  After the Patch 4.5K (peaks around 4.8k) DPS.  Wow!  All rotations/specs the same.  MH Slow Dagger with IP and OH Fast Dagger with DP.  The numbers don’t lie.  But is there more to be had? 

Evidently there is!  The Ruptureless Mutilate Spec is back!  Only this time it makes sense.  Every time you do an Envenom you get a buff which gives you a higher chance to apply Deadly Poison (Following the Envenom attack you have an additional 15% chance to apply Deadly Poison and a 75% increased frequency of applying Instant Poison for 1 sec plus an additional 1 sec per combo point).  What does this mean when you’ve already got 5 stacks of DP on your target?  More Instant Procs!  I’m going to give this spec a try one night this week and see how it works.  I have personally never tried the Ruptureless cycle in the past but I’m open for change!  Here’s the spec everyone’s talking about again. 51/18/2 http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#f0ec0exoiboIuVo0xV0xcZb
