It's 180% at this level.

Comentado por Tigraine

You only see 180% written in your Spellbook because the default Blizzard UI applies the multiplier from your Opportunity Talent (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=14075)

The 150% is just right.

Oh, and btw: This is the new Backstab. Rogues were previously only getting through the AQ20 book drop. With Patch 2.01 out now it's trainable at lvl 60.

EDIT: Clarification. —Arideni

Backstab is the best skill for burst damage (besides ambush) for rogues who are not assassination specced. Grab improved backstab for +30% crit, Lethality for +30% crit damage, and opportunity for +20% damage and you'll be quite the death dealer with this skill. Assassination rogues with Seal Fate love this skill because of its insane crit chance. (Seal Fate is a talent that gives you an extra combo point when a skill that gives combo points crits)

Comentado por DJTyrant

You can get this through your trainer now and no longer require getting the book from AQ20.

I still think this should be in the Assasination tree, but meh, that's just me, maybe even subtlety. But here is a good combat backstab build that maximizes your BS and Evis abilities as well as maximize your total DPS.

Backstab is pretty nice if you can get the hit on someone it does crazy damage but ins takes 60 energy and you want to try to get as many points so dont use it every time. although it still is a very nice rogue spell.

Note that attacks from behind can't be dodged or parried.

1350 ap Gladiator's shanker Mutilate spcc : i crit around 1,8 when kidney shot, can push it to 2.3k with Improved Expose armor. :)

I am a bit unsure how one counts the dmg. done by backstab, but this is what I got:

Comentado por 222540

Only 45 energy if you improve it down the sub tree. Very useful indeed. In PvP, sometimes you don't hit the opponent or get close enough so you need an attack that consumes alot of energy and does alot of damage so you don't get "exess" energy. (I can't spell for sh!t)

Comentado por Banehallow

Let's say we have a sub talented toon. %30 base crit rate, +Malice %5, +Puncturing Wounds %30 = %65 Backstab Crit Rate. With Opportunity %20 more damage.With 45 point talent -15 energy = 45 energy. With HAT, if you crit, you will get another CP. Sinister Calling will give %5 damage bonus.
In this theory, we cant get CQC.

Conclusion: Causes (%155 WD+465) x %120= %186 WD + 547 damage with %65 crit rate, awards 1 CP non-crit, 2 CP if you crit and costs 45 energy.

Edit: Ofc it depends on resi and armor >.< If you use the glyph you will get %20 more damage too.

This is a powerful and useful ability, yet can be quite complicated and difficult to pull off in PvP without the target being stunned, since it requires you to be behind your target. personally i perfer Mutilate with poisons applied it can hit for around the same amount of damage depending on the weapons. you no longer need to be behind the target to use this ability as of a recent patch. However it does take 60 energy to pull off, which can be half of your total energy or more if you PvP. with the Slaughter from The Shadows talent in the sub tree, Backstab only takes 45 energy, granting more spare energy for other abilities.

If your confident that you can stay behind your target at all times in PvP (simple in PvE) then i highly recommend using backstab, if not then go with mutilate.

Comentado por derax

This ability is crap. Blizzard should give some reward for using it. It does the same damage as hemo per energy with the top line daggers vs. top line maces or swords while hemoing. The only saving of this skill at all is the glyph of backstab with slaughter from the shadows and puncturing wounds which make it worth using if you have the chance. Then you have to ask yourself is it worth having to stand behind a stunned enemy to get the little bit of extra damage from those talents and glyph to use backstab not to mention in general your cp generation after initial stealth attacks is going to be about 50% slower than hemo.

Comentado por 220355

You can use Gouge to hold the enemy for enough time to get yourself positioned behind him!

Comentado por Wanky

Mutilate does more damage than Backstab if you are specced for it, but if you're Assassination and you specced points into Improved Kidney Shot and have Glyph of Backstab, you can effectively use Backstab for high damage during Kidney Shot stuns. So it's not an entirely useless skill even if you're specced for Mutilate.

It came from...behind...

Comentado por nusmesa

I am wondering atm if u can buff up Backstab to do insane DMG in PVP.

With this build (still working at it) i think you can buff up Backstab to crit for a lot for its energy use.

Xtra Crit: Puncturing Wounds + Malice + Close Quarters Combat = 40% Extra Crit Chance on Backstab.
For extra DMG: Aggression + Opportunity + Sinister Calling = 45% Extra DMG on Backstab.
With Premeditation + Cheap Shot and 1Hemmo u could put up a 5cp rupture right out of stealth and then backstab ur target to death. With help of the Rupture / Backstab / Hemmo Glyphs.

Rupture will get buffed from Backstab, Rupture, BloodSpatter & Serrated Blades

Anyone has any ideas?

A nice trick to know while leveling, if you get a little to close to an enemy he will turn and walk forward. during this about 0.5 sec duration you have a chance to Backstab the NPC.

1 tauren = 4 gnomes stacked on top of each other trying to get 1 backstab. O.o

Comentado por themguyman

so we have to w8 till lvl 18 to get this in cata that's going to suck

Comentado por QFred

This ability is amazing, not only for the damage it causes and also because at least 3 talents increase its damage. Apart from assassination rogues, who should spam Mutilate and use Backstab to refresh Rapture (if they use that glyph), it is an amazing, albeit slow, way to get combo point and a good dps input.

Comentado por MachinusNye

I'm not in the beta, so this is just some curiosity:
Looking at the calculators, they're adding some love (by which I mean, Two talents) to this ability in the Assass tree, so I'm just wondering if it's still better to use Mutilate over backstab, or if they're really making it useful for assass rogues.

Does anyone know how to use this in combat with anything, because if you attempt to kidnet shot, all of your energy goes away and wont come back for a backstab intul they actully wake up, and gouge doesnt work becuase wouldnt a poinson with damage count as an attack?

Comentado por Uuneya

I could be wrong but I think that this is now the only baseline ability that requires daggers.

Comentado por 223389

I am a level 43 Rogue and my tooltip says: "265% weapon damage + 443" but mine hits for about 290-300. So something's wrong.

Comentado por Tithanas

If this change makes it to live come MoP, Backstab will be a subtlety only ability. To replace assassination rogue's execute phase (below 35% hp) awesomeness, they now have a new ability called since seems to have failed to make it to MoP.

Comentado por Thottbot

This is a sweet ability, best used in combination with garrot, or when the enemy is attacking an alley allowing you to go behind it and stab in the back.

Comentado por Thottbot

I dont know if many people realize this, but backstab works on enemies that try to flee quite well. When they flee, they have very little health left, making backstab easy to take that last chunk off.

Comentado por Thottbot

yes, backstab is great against fleeing enemies, but... =P I prefer letting them run a bit and finishing them with a quick throwing knife to the back... yay for finese!

Comentado por Thottbot

Why when i use backstab it works not also from front, from all directions! So, i can use only backstab hit and the finishing move. When i was little level with 1-2 damage weapon i makes 16 damage with backstab.
Is it some server settings or bug?

Comentado por Thottbot

The thing i don't like about this, is u must have a dagger in your main hand. That to me takes away options.

Comentado por Thottbot

THIS ABILITY IS AMAZING. with gouge i can finish the enemy off without them ever getting a hit on me. also amazing in instances. if u have a good tank that can keep aggro u can just backstab, backstab..... use feint once in a while too.

Comentado por Thottbot

Backstab should be considered a priority for dagger-main hand rogues. This ability is well worth the 60 energy required.

Talent-wise, a good way to make the most of this ability is through 5 specific talents.

First, Malice (+1-5% Critical Strike Chance, first tier Assasination Tree) will raise your critical strike chance with ANY attack, including Backstab. This will be the earliest way to increase your critical strike chance with talents.

Second, Improved Backstab (+10-30% Critical Strike Chance with Backstab, second tier Combat Tree) will raise your critical strike chance with regards to Backstab. If you are a dagger main-hand rogue, this is a must-have.

Third, Oppurtunity (+5-20% damage dealt from behind with Backstab, Ambush, or Garrote, first tier Subtlety tree) can add extra damage to your Backstab ability. Once again, if you use daggers in your main-hand often this is well worth the investment.

Fourth, Remoresless (After killing an opponent that yields honor or XP this gives you a 20-40% critical strike chance on your next Sinister Strike, Ambush, Backstab, or Ghostly Strike, first tier Assasination tree) is an invaluable PvE talent and can also work well in PvP. This essentially means that after killing an opponent your next attack will have a good chance of scoring a critical hit. If you have invested in Malice and Improved Backstab, then an opening move of Cheap Shot+ Backstab can be almost guaranteed to land a critical strike. In my opinion, this is one of the most useful grinding/questing talents a rogue can invest in. (Note: Even at 60 this will still work with monsters that level appears in green or higher)

Fifth, Lethality (+10-30% critical strike damage dealth with Gouge, Sinister Strike, Backstab, Ghostly Strike, and Hemorrhage, third tier Assasination tree requiring 5/5 of Malice) will add even more extra damage to your critical strikes. If you use Backstab often, this is definately a good talent to put points into.

The above explantion is just an easy way to explain how to best utilize Backstab for those rogues that wish to use this ability to its full potential.

Comentado por Thottbot

Alright I know... that Backstab has a pretty high crit rate as is.. every 8-12 backstabs for me = a crit w/out talents put into it yet. I just would like to know how to find the base crit rate on Backstab. Or if someone knows it by heart, they could help me with it by posting it here.
^.^ thanx

Comentado por Thottbot

Backstab is the pvp Sinister Strike basically. Most players dont dog fight u like mobs and u can basicaly jump around ppl spamming this move and it'll hit just as often as sinister strike. Only problem is the enrgy cost.

Comentado por Thottbot

i basically put a dagger wep on the sidebars and a sword next to it, i just ambush then backstab and gouge , then i click on the sword and start sinister strinkin, if u switch ur weapons alot durin combat id think thatd work, try it, ull still be usin ur sword and daggers

Anyone know about how much damage Backstab does on a 19 twink agility build rogue? I have seen up to 600 with Ambush, and 200 with Sinister Strike, and was wondering if Backstab would really be a better choice.

Using Assassin's Blade, I have consistently done 123 non-crit and 225 crits with Backstab. In regards to the Sinister Strike, however, I can't say what the maximum damage is. I had originally been using Shadowfang with Crusader, but it's hard to test it with the proc as I only have 15 seconds to score a critical hit. The damage wouldn't be as good if the weapon were enchanted with agility, but the overall dps would be better. So in regards to what is truly the "best", we may never know. Certainly agility enchants are the most convenient, as you don't have to worry about them proccing, and they add armor/dodge.

I have done 80-90 non crit with a Cruel Barb that has agility on it, doing 190 crits.

100-110 non crit with Shadowfang, 200-210 crits. This weapon has a Crusader enchant, but it wasn't procced. Oddly enough, the damage didn't have much of a difference when the enchant was procced. This leads me to believe that 15 agility is the better enchant, however Crusader heals. Again, another moral decision on what is the better enchant.

After testing out some styles, I've come to the conclusion that a sword is ultimately the best main hand. Backstab doesn't do enough damage to warrant the extra energy cost. In addition, you cannot immediately use it after Ambush, you have to wait for energy to regenerate. Might as well spam Sinister Strike. More net dps, and each white-damage swing will do more damage.
