my rogue spec @ 60

[Jhondice]

my spec

I used to be all combat w/ the basics in assassination, but when i hit 60 i decided to respec subt/combat and am gonna build into subt all the rest of the way into subt for the shs, then go pvp till i get my welfares and start my way up in the pvp realm. i'm always burnin thru my evasion and all other cd's cuz i figure, why have them if you're not using them all the time, right? so i spent talents in the reducing cd's on all the good ones i'm basic slow(ish) sword (2.6sec) in main w/ a regular drop dagger (1.7sec) offhand. i'm thinkin of switching to both fast daggers sticking deadly poisons on both (for the proc stacking) (might as well w/ garrote and rupture goin, keep those dots ticking!)

whatcha think? am i thinking too many dots for one rogue to handle? or am i thinking in the right direction?

Well, the most competitive pvp builds are:

20/0/41 Shadowstep
41/20 Combat Mutilate
49/0/12 Sub Mutilate
20/41 Combat Maces
0/30/31 Hemo/AR/Prep

There's room for some flexibility within all of these, of course. Daggers are terrible for PvP unless you're using a mutilate build. Which, for BGs, isn't that great. For BG grinding, I'd recommend either HARP or Shadowstep. Harp loses a lot of its power without maces, though, so consider picking those up. Shadowstep has the advantage of not needing a weapon spec.

In general, keep a slow weapon in your MH, for heavy hitting specials, and a fast offhand for poison application and low energy shivs.

For poisons, you'll want to use Crippling offhand, so that your target stays in melee range. I use Wound for my Main Hand to prevent healing, but for BGs, Deadly can work fine as well. Take your pick.

especially if you go hemo you will ned slow weapons(preferably maces) so it will do more dmg and more points
