    almost useless when there are enemies around your target unless you are trying to interrupt flag capping or such. if its a single target tho, insane dmg.

    as the above say this is not sum usless crap move. very devistating dps on 1 target. blade furry does stack with killing spree. so if u get a good enof handful of enemys u can do plain insane damage with it(mainly in pve) for pvp i tried shadow dance. didnt like it>.> not sure if im just not good at it or wat. i just never found it all that usful when u can put points for blade furry or cold blood(shdowstep of cource in wotlk).

    so murder spree>1 target/mob
    murder spree<multi player targets

      even if your auto attacks crit for 1k on BOTH weapons, in those 2.5 seconds, you'll have done 10k damage with it.

      Whereas with shadow dance i can get 5 ambushes off, 4 of them DURING kidney shot, for around 20k damage.(assuming they all crit(ambush crit is 70%+)

      vs one target, multiple ambushes are crazy.

    You guys are forgetting something. This skill is in combat, a raid talent tree. I think its an attempt to make combat rogues have a chance when they get ganked doing dailies or give them some burst in bg.

    Well, it IS a welcome addition to any rogue´s AoE repertoir,
    which does not include very many moves. Before this rogues
    only had Blade Flurry as an AoE, and that´s a pity when it
    comes to clearing trash out of a raid/instance. Before this
    I had to just stand aside and watch while the others killed
    everyone (not JUST watch, of course I was attacking one mob,
    but that almost counts as standing aside and watching when the
    others are killing five mobs a second).
    Also a kickass move for single mobs when you´re questing.

    Tip: Do NOT use it when there are other mobs around, You WILL
    hit them too.

    This skill is great.  does great damage for pve as well as pvp. i suggest for pvp to use this attack rotation.

    CHEAPSHOT_KILLINGSPREE_KIDNEYSHOT

    then just burn the rest of your oponents remaining health points down.  this attack rotation works great on classes with
    low armor and/or health.

    If you really wanted to go nuts with this move you would make a macro that would equip a slow off hand weapon right before using this move.

        Nope, Equiping a weapon incurs a GCD

        Preferably do that w/o the equip weapon part

        Theory Crafting time.
        5v5 arena...

        Rogue has sword spec
        Rogue has a trinket / weapon with a CoH to pop an extra attack.

        Rogues pop blade flurry, fan of knives - Trinkets then this...
        Now since it uses BOTH weapons you could assume 2 slow weapons may come out for the win in this one


        ALSO BTW it doesnt LOOK all that great you just go shadowform-ish and "attack" them

    People who think this is useless need to look again. Drop one point on SnD, then Blade Flurry then drop Killing Spree and your dps is insane and you hit everything.....

    This is an AOE attack yes it does do good damage single target but it's at its best on grps of 2 or 3 used as I said above. I can easily peak and 4K5 to 4K8 dps on small groups when used with BF.

    this itself is decent, but this with BLADE FLURRY makes for a potent blast of damage. use both those at the same time when your energy is low from fan of knives, then whip out MORE FAN OF KNIVES! gives you something to do while that energy regenerates >:D

    damage with this also increases by 20% next patch, good stuff. combat ftw

    not sure how this is better than shadow dance. I can get 5 ambushes off before shadow dance drops. 4 of them DURING kidney shot.  Each one is 4-5k on casters. I'm 69 with mostly greens.  My ambush is 70+% to crit.

    to match 20-25k of shadow dance, this would have to have every hit from both weapons hit for 2k-2.5k damage. Or, it would have to last 3 times as long.

    so how is it better vs 1 target? 

    I'll assume you NEED to be fighting a group and combining this with other skills to get use out of it.

    Now if it was 10 attacks, lasting 5 seconds, that would be something.

    The only problem with that, Killing Spree doesnt require much skill to use, while Shadow Dance would need your single target to stand still long enough if they somehow got away from your kidney shot. Long story short, Killing Spree is a good ability with great damage, but its probably outclassed by Shadow Dance if you have the skill.

    This is great for sorting out clothies on flying mounts who keep emoting because they think they're out of attack range. 

    Fly above them, dismount, as you pass them hit Killing Spree, watch them die as your 'Safe Fall' passive lets you land comfortably on the ground. 
    If your weapons aren't quite heavy enough to do that then just add 2x Deadly poison.  The caster will have to land to dispell it, which he wont want to do, so he will attempt to fly off and die 5 seconds later from the DoT damage  ;)
