Rogue Specs

[Pharon]

being that my main is a full t6 geared rogue and ive been a massive fan of the return of dagger rogues, 51-5-5 has been my spec since 3.0 went live

regarding the OP's cycle for mutilate, i would have to disagree, running a CttC build, the cycle that has been best from my personal experience is as follows:

4-5 SnD (on opener)
4-5 Rupture
*refresh hunger for blood*
4-5 Eviserate (note: before dropping the evis, pool your energy till snd has 3-5 sec remaining)
4-5 Rupture

now, i know alot of rogues have been claiming that envenom is the better route to go, i personally dont agree, being that you lose all your DP stacks every 2nd rotation, your next mutilate will be on a potentially unpoisoned target costing you 50% damage on that mutilate and 3% crit damage bonus with master poisoner

as for the build you posted, i stopped looking at it after i saw Vigor and QR, both of which are pvp talents, not pve

just my 2¢

I like karlo7770's spec, really great for soloing group quests cuz it's name speaks for it, they are stunned 80-90% of most battles, gouge, cheapshot, blind, kidney shot....

well since wotlk has been live for a while now and ive since cleared all content (server firsts for all might i add) ive been extremely happy with mutilate and have not reverted to the HaT cruch to do my dps for me

spec has remained virtually the same, 51-15-5, cycle has changed slightly

prestack hfb x3
TotT on MT > ambush
4-5 SnD (on opener)
5 Rupture
5 Envenom (note: before dropping the evis, pool your energy till snd has 3-5 sec remaining)
**refresh hfb** (reasoning for this change, keeps snd and hfb close to the same timer, 24 sec on snd with glyph 30 sec on hfb)
5 Rupture
repeat...

running this cycle, i have put out a sustained 4800 dps on patchwerk coming in 2nd-3rd nearly every kill (normally beat out by a BM hunter thats doing ~5k dps)

i used a combat swords build until i was able to learn mutliate, killing became much faster after that imo
