Here's the armoury in case anyone else is reading the app : Link

Your experience is ok but I can't really comment much because you haven't linked anything to show your performance or your UI.

Here's some notes on the armoury link. Is there any reason why you reforged to crit on your boots and gemmed a hybrid in the yellow for the bonus? I'm pretty sure agi is worth about double the other combat ratings so a pure agi gem might be better (correct me if i'm wrong). Also this is kinda a grey area for me since my rogue knowledge is shit but I think Quicksilver blade from slabhide may be better than the pvp offhand. Offhand weapon dps is a very small factor so the only thing you'd gain mostly from is the base agi at the cost of a lot of secondary stats.

Also, is your sub spec a pvp spec? Puncturing wounds and premed should still be better than Quickening and Waylay (you should have crip on your offhand anyway).

I like to have my character well rounded since I can still upgrade a lot of pieces and reforge to what it necessary, but I'm putting out and averaging 17k-20k dps sustained in raid. And yes my off-spec is PvP. I'll take everything you have said into consideration cause I like to experiment myself besides see what everybody else is doing with their gear from those who are endgame raider rogues. I learn really quickly and adapt adequately to every encounter. But you can't just go by my words so if you guys see me fit to raid with Reform I'd be more then happy to help in anyway possible for guild raid progression.

Hey mate

Please link a screen shot of your UI as well as a recount meter of you in BH or something.

After a quick inspection of your armory, you seem to have 0 Expertise, I've only played a rogue in wrath, but I'm pretty sure having some expertise points is a DPS increase, correct me if Im wrong.

And also provide us with your opener and rotation, feel free to go into detail about it

THanks

My rotation is garrote, mutilate 2-3 combo points, slice n' dice, mutilate 2-3 combo points, rupture, then 5 combo point envenom, 5 combo rupture, rinse and repeat till 35% where I backstab instead of mutilate for combo points. Will have to wait on for a UI post in raid till next week, I've already ran BH but can just get a screenshot of my UI atm which is basically how I raid, minus Omen not showing and I've downloaded all the add-ons your guild is required to have, I use X-pearl for UI thats about it. O and recount aswell.

Here is my UI. [img][/img]

Gear and spec seems decent, Just that refore on ur boots dosnt make sense , Haste to Crit :s , You should never be reforging haste unless its your last option, crit is obsolete for assasination , The gem in your boots is ok, Althought 10 agi is better then 20 mastery, So a 40 agi gem would probably be better.

The usual rotation should be going , Vendette > Garrotte > 1 cp Rupture > 1 cp SnD if you didnt get a cp proc use mutilate to get 2 cp's > Mutilate > Depending on your SnD timer if you can fit in another Muti Do it , If not use Envenom to Refresh your SnD to 20 seconds asap > Then from there on Keep rupture up with whatever cp's you have if your putting in more then 3 cps for rupture its a big dps loss overall but you should be using whatever cp's you have leftover from doing 5 cp Envenoms Usually 1-3 cp ,
When 35% kill phase comes Vanish to get Overkill up for Increase energy regen and garrote > backstab + follow the same priorite with rupture up 100% with minimal cp , and keeping snd up

Also , Go to a raid dummy in org , Open recount > Damage done drag it open a bit bigger , Open with your rotation and Do 1,000,000 Overall Damage Done Then Print screen as u hit 1m damage done , Go to paint Ctrl + V save to desktop http://www.Imageshack.us Upload it and post the link here

Thank you for the information Vallorak, will try to change my habits that i have for my rotation, just don't see anything wrong with the dps that my rotation is putting out at the moment. But if i notice a bigger difference in raids I'll be staying with your rotation.

Yea your rotation may be ok during a raid once u get things going , But you can put out much more overall damage by doing it that way

Did my rotation and for the 5 times I avg about 12.5k to 13k on the dummy. And then did your rotation and had just the same results.

Yeah man, If it works for you do it. I got no problem if your making the same results , Pretty close to me aswell actually , I think rogues got dubbed compared to other classes dps in cata :{ anyways gl , I'll get Niktaf to comeback when hes un-afk in game

Thank you very much for all your help.

contact one of the officers in game erick, unholysin, niktaf or zethy.
