    Does the duration on special abilities continue during timestop? I'm curious mainly for my fighter/thief, I'm imagining a time trap then assasination, critical strike, and greater whirlwind all put together and really liking the numbers. Anyone know?

    I don't think you can use assasination and whirlwind simultaneously :shake: . And yes, the duration of special abilities does continue during timestop.

    *grumble* Well there goes my fun idea. How about critical strike and assasination? *hopeful, puppy dog face*

    Just use Assassination, you will kill thing in 1 hit or 2, no need for Critical Strike, use Critical Strike only if they are immune to backstab.

    On a site note, Time Trap stacks, so you can set 7 of them, and have Time Stop for 70 seconds!! (they set off one after another)

    Hope this help

    Woah, stacking timetrap sounds fun =) I was mainly just thinking critical strike and assasination just to see how much damage I could rack up. Sure assasination combined with a timetrap is plenty but it'd be cool to see something like 280 damage pop up for every hit.
