Was maining sub for a couple of years and ever since shadow dance came out i’ve been playing sin but and just 2 days ago i specced to sub because alot of ppl here saying sin is trash and sub is better in PvP. 1 thing i noticed is to be able to burst down somebody you need to have all his defensives cd’s so it’s like you can only kill them on the second go as where Sin you just kidney put up dots vanish with grudge match legendary and its over man. Also in 2s playing with a disc if you’re burst doesnt work and they nuke you down your healer just heals you up and you’re ready to go again but with sub mage if your HP drops there isn’t much that you can do apart from run eat and try to go again.
So after playing both specs i do feel like Sin with the vanish legendary is actually better to get the kill at the current moment and with sin it’s alot eazier 1v1’ing other classes in RBG’s and defending your base because you can just 1v1 them dot them up vanish and they drop bro, with a sub you will 1v1 and lose man because after you try to burst him down and you dont get the kill wtf will you do if your teammates havent come to rescue you its over.
The only plus side i see in sub is that lets say the healer comes out of blind and is ready to heal the kill target you put him in shadowy duel and finish the job. But is sub better than sin just because of that? i feel like Sin is better overall because of the consistent dmg and vanish legendary burst with grudge match. Sin just rock 1v1 and sub sucks on his own man.
Im interested in hearing your opinions, i got maxed gear for both specs but ill try sticking to sub for now and get the hang of it a bit more.
