Do you think you will continue with 2h post nerfs come June?

If you haven't seen my reply on YouTube, 2h actually got buffed. 300ms reduced queue time between two dizzying swings feels great and the ability feels wonderful on pts. Along with the big buffs to crit rush and dawnbreaker, I see no reason at all to even call this a nerf. They've finally fixed dizzying swing and without the 14% damage reduction, it would be absolute aids in the game.

Next patch, could you possibly replace FM with RAT?

Also what would you suggest I remove if I wanted to put streak on my bar?

I would disagree that the dizzy swing change is better. Felt the same or worse on PTS for me. Also DBoS isn’t getting a buff. Due to the new way that the damage is working, especially the dot, you’ll have far less damage up front because the first tick is now spaced out so it will be less bursty. Crit rush buff is cool.

Trout1996

Chaining d swings feels great on pts right now and entirely justifies the damage nerf imo. It also felt smoother for me to land though I've always been pretty good at landing that skill.

Trout1996

RAT can definitely be an option but I'd still want rally in lieu of FM. Kind of a pain in the arse to slot streak on this setup. Crit rush would have to go but I wouldn't personally make that change. Also trap in place of critical rush is an option for group play.

Trout1996

The only change I'd possibly make is ditching critical rush for RAT and acquiring rally in the process. But with crit rush getting buffed and being a wonderful way to get back on to your target after kiting and casting poison injection, I really wouldn't want to drop it.
