Patch notes
1.60.1.70753
Slice and Dice and the 
Ruthlessness talent no longer make a sitting target stand up.- New passive Poised, learned at level 18, works like the Druid one. New spell Shank (level 24; 5 Energy, 10 second cooldown, melee range): an off-hand strike for 50% weapon damage that generates 15 Energy and cannot miss; Rank 2 at level 44 generates 25 Energy.
Deadly Poison and 
Instant Poison attack power coefficients are doubled (0.009 and 0.01).- Assassination:
Improved Expose Armor moves to row 2, 
Vigor to row 3, 
Relentless Strikes to row 5 as a 5-point talent (4 to 20% per Combo Point to restore 25 Energy).
Lethality becomes a 2-point talent (10/20% critical damage). Murder is removed.- New talent Blood Splatter:
Rupture lasts 6 seconds longer and 
Garrote 9 seconds longer. 
Venom is a passive on row 5: Shank raises your Poison damage by 30% and poison application chance by 20% for 6 seconds.
Seal Fate becomes a 3-point talent (33/66/100%). 
Mutilate moves to row 7 and deals 90% weapon damage plus a larger flat amount.

Hemorrhage cost -3/5). 
Improved Sprint moves to row 2; 
Weapon Expertise and 
Aggression to row 4. Aggression now boosts Sinister Strike and Eviscerate by 5/10/15%.
Dual Wield Specialization becomes a 2-point row 5 talent (25/50% off-hand damage). 
Flawless Execution reduces cost by 15 (was 10).- New talents: Composure (row 3, bigger Poised discount) and Flash of Steel (row 6, more Energy from Shank and a shorter cooldown).

- Fixed Hemorrhage and
Ghostly Strike dealing too much damage with Daggers. - Setup now gives 15/30/45% (was 33/66/100%). Opportunity becomes a 5-point talent (4 to 20% bonus damage).
Camouflage becomes a 3-point talent. - Several talents move rows (Setup,
Dirty Deeds, Camouflage, 
Premeditation, Serrated Blades, 
Elusiveness, Ghostly Strike, 
Heightened Senses). Ghostly Strike now lets your next 
Ambush or Garrote within 7 seconds skip the Stealth requirement. - Hemorrhage also raises Garrote damage by 15%. Improved Distract, Quietus, Cutthroat and Thousand Cuts are removed.
- New talents: Quick Getaway (extra Sap target and speed after sapping), Boot Knife (Shank can add 2 Combo Points) and Death Mark (row 7, 25 Energy, 20 yard range, 10 second cooldown; stores part of your damage per Combo Point and deals it after 6 seconds).
