youtubeproxy.org. But why people dont use the beautifull game music,i dont know.
It's a personal touch. I make videos not as a person playing X class with X build, but as myself, so videos aren't just a chance to share my playstyle, but to also share my taste in music, and set a tone for what you're going to be watching, as well.
Have you ever watched a movie or TV show where the music for a scene fits it perfectly, and the actual scene itself is made even better for it? That's kind of what I aim to do.

The 2 Dragon speed kills videos are making me tempted to go back to my Rogue. Where did you get that Templar armor?

What are you wearing in the 30 sec kill vid?
I should probably answer that now, to avoid a lot of confusion.
The actual armor I have EQUIPPED is the Guardian of Enasalin, meaning it has those stats, but the MODEL of the armor is the Knight-Templar Regalia; I modded my save and swapped the models.
I think Templar Hunters are awesome enemies, and I wanted to get into their shoes a little bit with my appearance. The change is purely aesthetic, but I've gotta say, one-shotting a Hunter while wearing the armor and seal of the Order is DAMN satisfying.

I'm right there with you. I wanted that armor so bad but unfortunately I'm on PS3. I don't think there is a save editor for the PS3, right?

So in your skill build, if I wanted Lacerate, what skill can I skip? I really think having Lacerate just speeds up killing speed too much to pass up.
Skip Back-to-Back and Follow Through, if you want. You won't get Blood Feud until near end-game (beinning of Act III/very end of Act II) anyways, and your mage friends should really be handling staggered targets just fine, for the most part.
I was out all night yesterday, and I didn't see how many new questions there were, so I'll try my best to get to all of them now.

Also, huge favor, since I haven't played the game unmodded due to testing, do you think in your build you could try lacerate and confirm my findings that it the staggered effect of lacerate stacks with abilities that benefit from staggered such as explosive strike(upgraded) and vendetta(blood feud)?

Woot thanks for your answers. Hmm, isn't follow through good for stamina regen?

Follow Through would be good for wars of attrition, but how many of those are you really going to see with a class that can put up 50k+ in one shot? I can think of 1 isolated case: The Arishok, and one fight isn't enough for me to justify spending a skill point for. That's my rationale behind not selecting it.
And yeah, I suppose I could test it. What information are you looking for, exactly? Numbers, or if it works at all?

Well I tested it and in my case, the upgrade for lacerate decreased it's overall damage. I don't know if it could just be me cause of all my modding, probably destroyed something and I haven't really played the game completely yet (I love modding and going through data files and playing with numbers).
So far what I have found in my testing is that Lacerate has a 10% chance to deal 140% damage over 2 secs (2 ticks, first tick occuring immediately after proccing and then the 2nd tick 2 sec after).
Upgraded Lacerate deals 70% instead of 140% (weird? might be just me). Had a 100% chance to proc on staggered and does not consume stagger.
If you plan to experiment, try out using lacerate upgraded and use it with something that benefits from stagger like vendetta or explosive strike with upgrades and see if you can find anything useful (also, if it is even worth investing into it as 10% is crap chance when enemies die so fast there's no point of it proccing at all lol)

Blood Lust is the main source of stamina regain. Follow Through is better when dealing with singe, hard targets.
In my game, I have the enemies rebalanced to have more HP so fights take longer. I didn't want to fights to be all about pure bursts and finishing fights in less than a minute. I think I have most bosses and elite bosses with 6x-8x more hitpoints while lieutenants...still die too fast even with 2x-3x HP >_> Assassinate is OP lol

Nobody is paying the OP. Fan guides are a labor of love, they are not know for being done fast. Give the guy a break, you try to write a guide!
/mini rant
I am not going to say no to payment, should anyone feel so inclined. Juuuuuust throwing that out there.
I'll try to get them done soon, but honestly, I don't even know what I would say for weapons. I spent most of the first 2 acts using generated gear, and it isn't until Act III where I could really say 'here, go get this', so I'm kind of at an impasse.
Also, I'll have a new video up whenever Sony Vegas decides to finish rendering, and my internet decides not to be a P.O.S and upload. I don't often toot my own horn (tee hee, also see - total lie), but it is badASS. Be on the lookout!

DW Rogue, at least in my experience, is a nightmare before lvl10 (ASSASSINATE!!!!!!!). That being said, if you're having threat management issues I'd use 1pt Stealth and 1pt Taunt to try to keep aggro off of you and on to Aveline.
Nothing says that your first spec has to be assassin, though. You could go into, say, Shadow, and use its passive bonus to crit damage until you hit level ten, then use a Maker's Sigh to respec into Assassin for Assassinate.

Act 1: Arm of Adruil, Bodice Ripper, Blade of Red Birth (though you get it at the end almost),...
Act 2: Stitch Maker, Coterie Shiv (if you can afford)
Though yeah, between these or instead of I often used some random daggers, too.

No! Don't do it! What are you having trouble with? Maybe I can be of assistance.
Also, I'm at the Arishok right now, I could record it if anyone REALLY wants to see, but I doubt it's going to be that much fun to watch.

Nah, just link us to a NASCAR video and we'll watch that for fifty minutes. Will be about the same effect.
