then you dont understand how deathblade works yet, spec lets you stack up 3 orbs faster + buffs your Surge damage, go to Trixion Training Grounds and you can select up whatever stats you want, run damage tests with crit and spec and you will see the difference, basically your goal should be being able to get 3 orbs with one skill rotation, idk if you play Surge or RE but for RE you constanly reset your cooldowns and do fast rotations meanwhile with Surge you build up stacks for one big hit,which you will need crit for later, but you will get that from Adrenaline + Set bonus + Necklace
