This is my question: At what level of Assassinate will a macro of Bstep + DS + Assassinate surpass the damage output of a macro of Bstep + SB when each is spammed? I used to have the info about the time each takes and the %s somewhere, but i seem to have lost it. Any help would be appreciated.

I would be interested in knowing the answer to your question also. P.S. I tried using a macro like that but it wouldn't work for me half the time, a macro of just ds+assassinate works most of the time but if i try to do a 3 skill macro it usually stops in the middle on me. Does this happen to anyone else?

I find it annoying because any movement/pot usage/etc. will cancel out the third part. However Thats why i'd advise DS being the last part so IF it gets cancelled you can still use a pot. If it gets cancelled while youre still in DS for some reason, you can't pot. Also, to thizzard it seems to be stronger. (I have lvl 21 exactly) However i just want to make sure i'm not getting it wrong because of the speed difference. To anyone that could help, this would be assuming i am cancelling out the 4th hit of assassinate.

I remember it's lvl 19 Assassinate, and around lvl 27 with SE. The macro might take a bit of time to get used to. I personally don't have problem using pots during BStep's invincibility. When I need to move, I cancel the first lunge manually, then continue with macro.

Ok, thank you. And i've been practicing with this macro at places such as pianus, so i think i've got it under control.
