Rogue Levelling Build?

[Y2K]

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)

Cool, I'm doing my key bindings now, that link you gave me earlier, has a thread on important key bindings. Its really sweet!

I'm just having a problem in moving around, like say if my target jumps behind me or to the sides, I cant seem to reach him in time... Spose I just need practice.

Thanks again everyone!

Yeah, one of the things that pvp'ing taught me, which benefits my pve, is the importance of hotkeying.
I use numbers 1 through 5 for commonly casted/downranked stuff, and shift1-5 for emergency/max rank stuff. I weaned myself off keyboard turning freeing up Q and E for spammed stuff, and rebound most of the default actions away from the R T F G Z X C V and B keys, freeing up more options for quick-access casts, and shift R T etc etc for situationally useful totems etc.
The second or two that saves you from hunting for an icon with your mouse cursor not only is the difference between life and death in pvp, but in many pve encounters as well. I only really click on food or hearthstone or quest items or some very rarely used totems/abilities (lol farsight) these days.

*Shudder* Keyboard turning. I've never been one of those FPS fanbois but I find kbd turning mildly offensive.

What can i say.

My first real toon was a paladin (at least he was a dorf).
Then a toren hunter. These two facts should already paint a pretty picture...
I was a keyboard turner till 60.

Some things take a while.

Keyboard turner? only do that some times when I am talking on the phone and need to run crazy distances.
I however use Keyboard striving (spelling?) a lot! Or just moving forward or backwards.
As hunter we autoshoot and afk anyway so keybindings aint that important

Lmao, Bm hunters ftw!

I get my 9yr old brother to pewpew while i can make food in raids

"Right boet, just keep pressing 2 (my bm macro), and watch out for red text saying Ive passed 90% threat"

When i come back i've dropped a few places on Recount, but i sit down and focus, and soon i'm back near the top
