We've prevented our evidence - in the form of ShadowCraft, and supported by both WoL parses and Simulationcraft - that Combat is fully competitive with Assassination at current gear levels. If you disagree, that's fine, but you need to provide some evidence beyond a vague gut feeling that that's the case.

Also, your shift key appears to be broken. Please fix it.

Original Post:

has all the issues of energy capping with the increased haste levels and t13 2 piece bonus, CD postponing (i.e. AR not being used on CD) and haste pots been taken into consideration with combat's damage output? the combat spec seems really clunky.

what i've read elsewhere is that the insane capping issues is irrelevant because most damage is from autoattack, landslide up time etc. idk, i have my doubts about combat being a good single target spec because of the aforementioned.

things that make us cap as combat:
BL
AR
T13 2piece
Tol'vir pot
Trinket Procs
Legendary dagger proc (future)

Isn't this getting into the realm of being a DPS loss as compared to mutilate? it would function better with
BL, T13, Trinkets, Tol'vir pots so much as that you can use it all together with Vendetta up and put out a lot more dps. no?

Please tell me where im wrong.
