About glitched skill

I would like to ask where are you getting the information from (or calculations rather). From all the calculations I have made, spamming Assassinate (by itself) is still stronger than both BS spamming and the new BS/SB combo. I also have the Assassinate/BS (without 4th hit) combo being roughly 15% stronger than BS/SB, not only 5%. I am using this information (all Faster(2) speeds):

240 ms for Dark Sight
1380 ms for Assassinate
390 ms for 4th Hit of Assassinate
690 ms for BS animation time
720 ms for SB
1 second for new BS cooldown

Are you using different numbers?

First of all, daggers get boosted to faster(3), unless you're a fan shad or dark mate shad or have a SI mule around somewhere...

SBlow = 780ms
Bstep = 1950-780-780 = 390ms

- New Bstep+Sblow Combo =390+780ms = 1170ms = 51,280x/min = 75.897,44% dmg / min
- Assassinate = 240+390+1500 = 2130ms = 28.169x/min = 74.295,77% dmg / min

There you have it, Bstep/Sblow > Assassinate (4 hits) in DPM...

Slash Blast. ACB. Somersault Kick. All way less than 150 range. And that 150 is on both sides too, not just one. Shockwave is 330 on one side.
I think Shining Ray is less than 150, too.

Slash Blast isn't used in 4th and both ACB and Somerault Kick are used with a "smack" skill (Rush / CSB) so they dont need the range, since you "smack" the monsters in the skill's range, unlike Band of Thieves, since Shadowers don't have such a smack skill...

But ok... it all gets fixed when Bstep is upgraded... so lets stop the BoT discussion...

Btw, the increased BoT "dagger range" has one pre:
You can now chain Bstep + BoT on Zakum Arms on the platforms. Normally Shads can only Bstep (Sblow can't reach arms then -.-), because you cant use Bstep when you're closer then 100pixels near the edge of a platform.

So, at Zakum (and Horntail?) BoT became a "ranged" Sblow now... also usefull... sort off...
