Assassination Rogue: EF or DS

EF hands down plus herbalism = Win and fun spec

EF is a RPPM x 2 weapon enchant = 10 rppm x2 = 20 guaranteed procs per minute not including haste and Poison increases proc rates.

if i was you i wouldnt ask, id just test. Ive tried both and i still prefer DS but thats because i played 19s and im all about maxx agi, newer players or even vets of the 24s may say EF, but im just giving my opinion, i like to see the big numbers when i smack somebody.

fairly certain haste wont increase the speed btw procs. rogues get energy reg from haste.

If u played 19s. Well Curley on his 19 plays Ass spec. Look what he runs Curley @ Bleeding Hollow - Community - World of Warcraft

^ Heartseeker with Ele force x2. U wear crit more in Ass spec. Just FYI. Figure I use Curley as an example.

RealPPM Functionality Changes | 2013-03-04 19:29 | Ghostcrawler
We changed RealPPM to use your true melee haste or spell haste (whichever is higher) to scale the proc rate instead of attack speed or casting speed. The difference is that things that buff your attack speed (such as the raid buff or [Slice and Dice]) do not increase the frequency of RPPM procs. True haste boosts, such as Bloodlust or haste rating on gear will improve proc rate. We felt this change was necessary to balance proc rates among different specs.

Yes, yes. You are correct, I fear I phrased my self incorrectly, what I meant to say was I don't think it will decrease the time between your poision ticks.
 
This is from real in-game experience on my 20 f2p 2k hp (in bg) resto druid.

Rogues that open on me that use DS never manage to kill me. Big ambush, then I jump away.
Rogues that open on me that use EF always kill me. Big ambush + EF procs + poison applies. If I am not already dead by this point I jump away, EF procs off of poisons. I die.
 
I played 19s as long as anyone on this forum. started 2007, that has nothing to do with ele force vs dancing steel considering it wasnt even around

I'm giving an example of a creditable flag returner in Ass spec from the 19 bracket. No one asked how long u played 19. Ur response offered nothing to this thread to help a rogue with a question.

If there happens to be a thread on how to flag return with 2-3 rogues / chain ambushing, since u can't solo an EFC. We will seek ur help / advice.

Assa is way better at 19 than 20-24 since at 19 you have muti and evis instead of muti and envenom.

You are correct. 19 ass spec is best and 24 sub is best. But was only explain if u run Ass spec what enchant should be used also why it should be used. So many people say what to use but don't explain y.

The "you cant solo EFC" line i find hilarious, i really wish i had screen shottred that match. my team won 3-0 ( you did not cap) i 1-3 shotted you every time (alone) next time ill be sure to screen shot! if you deny this happening GTFO lol, also if you deny me killing you out of stealth, lmfao go ahead and thanks for "plaing ally more often" as you said you were gonna! (*but never did) have fun on your scrub horde teams. <3 love, James
