Assassination Rogue is finally fun again

I know I might be in the minority here, and Sin definitely has issues (energy in long fights being the worst of them), but this is the first time since BfA that I enjoy playing Sin rogue again. It’s not the overly complicated, ridiculously high effort spec (or rather class, as I found all specs bloated) that it was in the last 2 and a bit expansions. If Midnight evens out the energy management issues, it will be my main for the expansion.

If anything, it can do with a tiny bit more complexity.

Credit where credit is due. It’s finally fun to play my favourite class again.

Assa literally was the same spec with the same gameplay for the entirety of TWW. I know this because I spent most of S2 and S3 playing Assa, and it was by far the easiest Rogue spec to work with. The only thing it lost was Shiv windows, which were just sent into Kingsbane anyway, and having to use Vanish/Stealth to spread dots in M+. That’s it. It’s like 10% easier now, but it wasn’t hard before, either.
