SK ST SUB Trickster

SK ST SUB Trickster Profile Guide The SK ST SUB Trickster is a high-burst, single-target (ST) sequence engineered specifically for boss fights, single-target encounters, and high-health priority targets. Built around Subtlety’s shadow-burst mechanics and the Trickster Hero Talent tree, it automates core resource management while weaving powerful cooldowns like Shadow Dance, Shadow Blades, and Secret Technique into a strict single-target rotation. Core Dynamics Focused Single-Target Execution: Replaces multi-target spending with single-target damage drivers. It prioritizes Eviscerate as the primary finisher, and handles generator spam via Gloomblade. Automated Burst Window Integration: Automatically fires Shadow Dance and syncs on-use trinkets on cooldown. It perfectly pairs them with initial Shadowstrike and Secret Technique sequences for maximum burst windows without manual key bloating. Stealth & Dance Weaving: Automatically opens from stealth with Shadowstrike, transitions straight into heavy single-target finishers, and automatically drops back into stealth when out of combat. Playstyle & Utility Raid & Tyrannical Focus: Designed specifically to sustain high single-target DPS on raid bosses and high-priority Mythic+ targets. Priority-Based Rotation: Uses a priority step function to keep Rupture refreshed while defaulting to heavy Eviscerate damage during Shadow Dance windows. Controller Optimized: A streamlined setup that handles complex stealth state transitions smoothly. This allows you to focus on boss mechanics and modifier timing while the sequence handles burst windows and generator-finisher flows. Modifiable Utility Keybinds Shift Modifier: Drops defensive evasiveness (Evasion). Alt Modifier: Triggers quick personal healing (Crimson Vial). Ctrl Modifier: Smart stun control—fires Cheap Shot while in stealth/dance (bonusbar:1) or transitions to Kidney Shot when out of stealth. Controller-Optimized Spenders & Finisher Macros Every core finisher is hard-bound to force continuous auto-attacks (/startattack). This prevents any energy-starved downtime or target-swapping lag on a gamepad. Use your toolbar's Code Block feature for the macros below. Eviscerate Macro Description: Launches your primary single-target finisher. It includes a safety command that automatically starts your auto-attacks, ensuring you keep swinging even if you are low on energy. #showtooltip Eviscerate /startattack /cast Eviscerate Black Powder Macro Description: Fires your main Area-of-Effect (AoE) finisher for groups of 3+ enemies. Forces your character to auto-attack the nearest target in front of you while executing the blast. #showtooltip Black Powder /startattack /cast Black Powder Slice and Dice Macro Description: Refreshes your vital 50% attack speed buff. The integrated attack command guarantees no downtime in passive weapon swings or energy regeneration. #showtooltip Slice and Dice /startattack /cast Slice and Dice Kidney Shot Macro Description: A smart stun macro optimized for controller layouts. Pressing the button normally stuns your current target. Holding down your assigned modifier key (like Shift or L1) stuns your Focus target instantly without dropping your main target lock. #showtooltip Kidney Shot /cast [mod:shift, @focus, harm, nodead] Kidney Shot; Kidney Shot
