New or changed baseline abilities

Baseline spells that are new in Forever or work differently from Classic.

Energy
Comes back 1 point every 0.1 sec, 10 a second: Classic's rate with no tick to wait for. From the Energy tooltip and Blizzard's Class Highlights video (3:41).

New talent, at the bottom of Assassination (row 7) since Blizzard's 2 Nov notes: both weapons at 90% weapon damage each plus 36 at rank 1 (75% before), 20% more on poisoned targets, 2 combo points. Remorseless Attacks, Lethality, Cold Blood, Puncturing Wounds and Opportunity name it.
Venom
New talent, Assassination row 5, and a passive since Blizzard's 2 Nov notes, no longer a finisher: your new Shank raises your poison damage by 30% and your chance to apply poisons by 20% for 6 sec.
Axes
Rogues can use one-handed axes now. The Hack and Slash talent lists Axe/Sword as a weapon group.
