Well I have only a few thousand to get to level 58.
I have played combat swords till now, ok armor..NOTHING special in
armor or weapons.
All armor and weapons is of the monkey. +agi and + stamina
Now everyone is saying having fun and slow as hell looser (ok these
are my friends?? LOL)
All I hear is IF you would spec sub you would kill faster and take
less damage....of course all of these hot shots have been level 70 for
over a year. AND NONE will admit to anything else even when they
leveled up..BS I know some of them leveled combat sword.
anyway is full Subtlety the best spec thru outlands?
Right now I am in winterspring and have to bandage or eat after 3-4
mobs(max)
I just cheap shot, SS, slice and dice, SS, SS, SS, Evis mob is about
1/3 health so I am not setting the world on fire. Compared to other
chrs I have leveled he just feels slow.
any help and info is greatly appreciated >> Stay informed about: Rogue at level 57 --outland next |

If level 70 rogues are telling you this they dont know their class very
well.

Not for killing mobs, no it isn't.

Hmm, I found my rogue fairly quick to level. But once you do the hellfire
peninsula quests, you will end up with much higher attack power, crit
rating, agility, stamina etc. Any char that goes to outland with little\no
outland gear will find they increase in potenct fairly quickly.

Well maybe its the way I did my chr.
I didn't know what I was doing when I started this guy
( like I do now ROFL )
this is the way I filled up his talents, I did not just go down the
combat tree to start.
Improved sinister strike
Malice
Improved eviscerate
Ruthelness
Relentless strikes
Lethality
Lightening reflexes
Deflection
Precision
Dual wield spec
Blade flury
Sword spec
Weapon expertise
Agression (1)
So should I go back and respec full combat then my last 8 back into
assassination?

It's because those rogues probably all pvp and sub is the best spec for pvp.
If a pve raiding rogue said sub is best for pve he doesnt know what he is
talking but from pvp/quest/5 man/kara point of view sub/assasination rocks.

It was for me, I found mutilate awful for questing and energy/combo points

I realise that, but even pvp rogues should know combat swords is better for
pve. If they are suggesting that subtlety is better for pve, I remain with
my original statement... They don't know their class.

Then you used it wrong, or specced wrong. Combat swords is and always has
been the pve spec for rogues, and is also the best levelling spec. Combo
point and energy generation is *worse* with subtlety than it is with combat
swords...

Indeed, I've always been combat swords and every time I look at sub it's
missing too much useful stuff. Although is people go full combat without
the additional assassination talents to help combo point generation,
then perhaps I could see why they think it's bad... but really it's a
nobrainer to get ruthlessness and relentless strikes in addition to the
combat goodies. Perfect pve build, at least for me; can't see myself
ever changing away from it.

For levelling and pve, I would spec something like:
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=fbe0ovZMeV00VzxMGkt
With the 41 points in combat, then start filling out the assassination
points. Note, this is only for pve levelling, not raiding and not pvp (sure,
you can use it for raiding or pvp too, it's just not the build I would
exactly go with for those purposes). You might prefer to move some points
around too, upto you.

Uh oh, we're getting into the disc vs holy priest territory again.
I changed from combat/ass to sub/ass after a short time in outlands and
found sub/ass much more fun than combat. Whether it's more efficient for
questing is debatable, but it certainly feels fine, and more
importantly, feels more roguelike to me. But then it's probably too fotm

Who me? I just said I personally was enjoying sub/ass more. I didn't say
which was right or wrong. Or were you speaking about someone else?
Anyway, I had my tongue firmly in my cheek with my comments to Catriona.
But this is usenet, kind of hard to convey that I guess. >> Stay informed about: Rogue at level 57 --outland next |
