Rogue Levelling Build?

Unfortunately that reasoning is flawed.

If you're opening with Ambush then your target isn't stunned and with our latency you're going to struggle to stay behind people to Backstab.
Not to mention the fact that after an Ambush opener you won't have enough energy to Backstab (60 Energy! WTF)

Swords have always been a better choice for us because of latency. If you're going to PvP a lot maybe go for a Hemo Swords build.

In Sub spec Ambush awards 2x combo points.

Shadowstep+Ambush, Kidneyshot, Backstab = dead :)

Or better yet

Shadowstep+Ambush, Kidneyshot, Vanish, Ambush, Prep, Vanish :D
 
Sub is by *far* the most imba damn pvp spec for rogues. It's not just about the burst damage, but also their survivability. Cheat Death is freaking godlike. Rogues with pali bubble = WTF.

Ah ok. Thats pretty crazy.

I went into EOTS for the first time on my Rogue. It's frikkin crazy how eezimode PvP is as a Rogue compared to my Shammy and my Shadow Priest.
I took obscene delight in killing one particular Enhance Shammy :P

I love PvP as a Rogue.

There is a macro to sap anyone close in range of your sap.

You don't even need to target him. In EoTS just stand close to the flag post and spam that macro, ur sure to find a rogue hiding there, then moer away :D

I just need to find that macro again. Or post it once I get home.

Yes Please!!!
 
I hate rogues they hit the crappy out of my oomkin if i see them on anyone i
nuke them hard dot them up so they can t get away.

Use to be hunters i hated but thats only as feral as moonkin i can pawn a epic hunter in my pve gear by spamming moonfire and stay in his mellee range when possible.No more dead spot but they cant shoot you when you stand on top of him but i can still spam moonfire. So then i tries to kite me wasting time he could have auto shoted big mistake hunter dead before i go oom feel kinda OP as moonkin vs hunters and i am under geared but rogues slach me up starting to believe in the rock paper scicors thing.Stunlock my moonkin dead.But feral with 19k armour is hard to stun lock.16k health.Rogues most power is the dodge vs feral so i mus on my stun thats bad if i miss i lose if i hit =free heal for me and i can cyclone him nother free 100% health for me.

Hunter>Feral druid>Rogue
Rogue>Moonkin>Hunter

Just what i experienced so far in arena in bg some duels too.

Hmm, thats the 1 thing i love about druids :p As pornolio stated what he loves about hunters, single target dps, i love that about druids, especially Balance 1s

Kite it into a freezing trap, pop on intimidation, pop all trinkets and burn down that 16k hp in a couple of secs xD

Doesn't work well in Arena, but bgs, with a 1vs1, its fun :rolleyes:

Smashable Sap Enemy

This tries to target your nearest enemy and Sap them if you have no target selected. If you have a target already selected it shouldn't drop your current target. This is also great for getting a Sap off an opposing stealthed enemy you are looking for.

#showtooltip Sap
/console targetNearestDistance 10.000000
/targetenemy [noharm][dead]
/console targetNearestDistance 41.000000
/cast [harm,nodead] Sap

Firstly your lucky if you get a drop on a ballance druid secondly ballance druid with dps gear will not have 16k hitponts alot less.
Mostly in bg 1v1 hunter cant kite a moonkin 1v1 on range they lose wrath and moonfire spaming with a few hots on me hunter loses unless hes MM and got sillence shot.

The most funny thing is when they dont know from were you shooting and were the force of nature came from they do fake death while insect swarm and starfire dots tick away :).
You are shard guild rigth i am on TH same server my druid is horde too i got crap moonkin gear bring me any of you hunter ill show you how even full s1.
In duel 1v1 he will be at 15% or 0% before he even sees me.(just not vengefull geared cause i only have 2 peaces of s1 for moonkin and rest is pve gear)
 
"You are shard guild rigth "
(a)no he isn't (afaik),
(b)our hunters dont pvp much, if at all, so they wouldn't have any pvp gear, and
(c)1v1 doesnt matter, it's no indication of how 'cool' or 'imba' you are. Performance in arenas is what counts, and moonkin are craptacular at higher-level arena.
 
Wow nice info guys! Thanks! I've decided to go with combat swords for levelling. It looks like a pretty versatile build.

I'm having a problem where in Duals & PvP I cant seem to "connect" and hit my target. I used to play alot of Ranged classes, so I'm a "clicker" with a few hot keys & macros. :(

Just when it comes to my Rogue, I'm left running in circles, not knowing what to do & often dead before I can swivel around & get a shot in.

How do you guys manage to get moves in? Do you click, use hot keys & how are you able to turn around so fast when the other Rogues & chars & running around super fast? :confused:

Hotkey hotkey hotkey.

I pretty much refuse to click on anything other then Food or a Hearthstone.
Everything i do is hotkeyed.

for e.g.
F1-F12 are keyed with F1-F6 being the most used cooldown abilities (KS, BF, AR, Blind,etc)
1-0 are keyed with 1-7 being spammed stuff (Gouge, Riposte, SS, Evic, Rup, Deadly Throw)
