    As a sword rogue you want to open up with 2 sinister strikes and then a S&D. this will allow you time to build 5 combo points before S&D falls off. if you have Ruthlessness and Relentless Strikes talents you can gamble those points into an eviscerate and be able to immediately do a 1 combo point S&D. if you don't want to gamble it (60% chance to get an instant combo point) then you will do a S&D after you build 5 points. In a raid you NEVER want to stealth and there are 2 reasons for that. First of all it takes longer to get behind a target. If it takes you 6 seconds to get behind a target, and you are doing 400 dps, you are losing out on 2400 damage. Second, with Lethality and Improved Backstab talents, it's actually better to use backstab instead of ambush for the increased crit damage and +30% crit chance. So the ideal way to open up is immediately run behind a target and start two backstabs followed by a S&D, while watching threat and feinting if need be. Keep up S&D 24/7, make sure you have vanish on a hotkey so you don't die, and don't use any dots.

    Just a quick note: Dagger rogues should usually not put 2 points into Weapon Expertise. One point is 3 dagger skill. Most rogues (should) have something like aged core gloves or distracting dagger. This puts you at 308 or 309 weapon skill with 1 point into Weapon Expertise, which effectively caps you.

  • @MrMannerless
    @MrMannerless 2 месяца назад

    This video has one important piece of information and that is to organically get 5 combo point snd before using your cds.
    Here’s how, you begin with 2 ss snd and then go into 5 ss snd and then use your ar 3/4 before a tick to get an additional tick in the duration.
    Once that’s done you can freely get 5 ss evis off twice before needing to tea and build into another 5 ss snd.
    While this video loosly explains this, do note that rogues do not use vanish ever, as it is a major dps loss and costs tons of energy. You can choose to vanish if you’re heading into high threat or just continue damaging, as tanks that are as geared as you can easily out threat you.
    There’s so very few examples where this isn’t true, such as vael or specific high mit fights where tanks don’t gen as much threat.
    Basically just go all out and if you climb, vanish, otherwise use vanish tactically to ignore a fear or a web spray.

      Edit: Stopped being a lazy piece of shit and done my own research, to me personally it seems better to get the lesser buffs because they are more easily obtainable and last significantly longer, if you want the +40 AP buff you need to kill elite giants(will need a healer) which then only have a 20% chance of dropping the item you need to get the buff (& I think you need multiple)

    Altough combat daggers is ''better'' on shorter fights, you dont need deathdealer for Seal Fate. You need flat 30% or more crit with full buffs, preferable that u have 30% unbuffed just incase you die.This can occur when you are BiS in MC/BWL gear. By the time you get deathdealer, ranked BS and Evisc and Deaths Sting from cthun, seal fate starts pumping insane numbers for #1 spec overall thru vanilla.

  • @robinhakansson8834
    @robinhakansson8834 4 года назад +29

    Great video overall, some key points I think you missed(u might've talked about them, in that case I missed them :D)
    Always Sinister Strike AFTER mainhand swing, HoJ and Sword Spec resets swingtimer, and they can proc on Sinister. Can also be done as Dagger with backstab, but not as important because of only 2% from HoJ.
    Never start a fight with ambush as dagger, unless u got like AQ/Naxx gear and are well above 50% crit, Backstab will have a better secured crit.
    1CP SnD is way better energy/SnD/s so always start off a fight with Backstab/SS -> Feint -> SnD, if you're afraid of Threat (which you shouldn't be) only SS/BS when you're at 80 or even at 100, before your next energy tick comes.
    Adrenaline Rush should always be popped when Crusader is up, and just before you get an energy tick, this way you can get 1 more 40 tick instead.
    Elemental Sharpening Stones are a great way to bump up your crit as dagger, since it's mandatory to be above 50% with dagger.
    30% Backstab crit doesn't apply flat 30% crit, it takes your current crit and grants you a 30% of that.

      Never Ambush in raids, BS has 30% more chance to crit and also if u stealth to come to the boss, u can lose easily 2-3 auto attacks which convert into even more dmg loss, cause if u just walk up to the boss without stealth as soon as the fight starts, u do more dmg that way.

    Good for new people, esle pretty basic.

    On horde do not put anything on mainhand because you get windfury.
    If you play swords or on horde, sinister strike right after your autoattack so you get more benefit if you refresh it with wf or sword spec.
    If you have crusader wait for a crusader prog to use your cooldowns.

  • @eyl0rien61
    @eyl0rien61 10 месяцев назад

    While leveling as a Combat Swords i would get Riposte. Esentially you gonna lose ou on Endurance (1.5min cd on sprint and evasion) and Imp Sprint (Remove movement imparing effects on use) and 1 point of Lightning reflexes (1% dodge chance), but the most important one would be losing 1 talent point overall in term of progress.
    Riposte is really useful, when you're leveling. Why? Surprisingly it can happen very often, like once every two-three mob encounter encounter, but it shines against multiple mobs and elite/rare mobs. You gonna have a higher parry chance (5%). which isn't a lot, but some extra small amount of survivability. In case you parry, then you can use Riposte, which cost 10 energy, it has 6s cooldown, hits almost as hard as sinister strike, but doesn't award you a combo point. Overall it's low cost moderate damage skill with disarm aka utility. There's even a macro for it to use, when you parry, which will prioritze Riposte over Sinister Strike.
    Keep in mind it's really op in PvP as well. It might give you the upper hand against warrior, paladins, hunters (cuz of pets), warlocks (cuz of Succubus; Void Walker; Felhunter, although remove weapon from the lock not gonna help you that much, but it's an extra damage). 90% of the time people not gonna level up Unarmed expertise, which means, they not gonna be able to hit you with their bare hand, while the disarm is active.
    It can be helpful as well in dungeon enviroment, when somehow a mob targets you or the tank dies. I would NOT bring this to end game raid enviroment though, cuz if that happens, and you'll be able to disarm a trash mob, then the group lose out on one debuff slot and 1 point loss on Lethality, which 6% crit hit damage on sinister strike and eviscate it not worth it.
    Overall:
    High value, while leveling and farming
    Mid-High value in PvP (Do not use it, before t2, cuz Cold Blood+Eviserate combo is wonderful)
    Low value in dungeons
    No value in raids

    Great video, but I'm a bit disappointed that you actually skipped Seal Fate daggers, which is the most difficult to master in terms of rotation (lots of trade-offs between SnD and Eviscerate). SF is perfectly viable right now and it is TOP dps in those fights were you have to stop dps for a few secs (Magmadar, Ragnaros) or have many transitions (Lucifron). Part of it is that you do not depend so much on your SnD autoattack damage and a more signifficant portion of your damage is Eviscerate, so you do not waste SnD time when pulling back from bosses. AND it is the only PvE build that is also capable of doing something in PvP.
    For horde, you don't use poison in your MH as you'll probably have WF shaman with you ;)

    the power of feint comes from the fact, that feint itself isn't a damaging gcd. The amount of threat reduced by feint itself is a joke (around -480 aggro at current rank).

    • @FromSardiusToJasper
      @FromSardiusToJasper 4 года назад

      you need to be building feint into your rotation along with vanish. You can feint once every 10 seconds to reduce % of your threat. When I crit out of ambush in MC I HAVE to feint before I applied SnD, now that I have the 5 set bonus for Nightslayer I can ambush (crit or not) > SnD > feint. This is especially important on Rag and Ony, if you pull threat on Rag, you may get instantly killed depending on how much Fire Resistance you have, if you pull threat on Ony and get a bunch of people tail whipped out of no where... well enjoy that conversation. Vanish is much better to use than feint, but feint can be used in a rotation if you climb the threat meter constantly.

    • @stevevaii1094
      @stevevaii1094 4 года назад

      @@FromSardiusToJasper feint does not reduce an %-amount of threat, it reduces an absolute value of threat. On current max rank feint reduces the threat by around 480, which equals 600 damage.

    Was hoping to see a Subtlety build. Im only lvl 52 but consistently will be top dps on a single target. Points in "Setup" to add points when dodged, "Hemorrhage", "Premeditation" helps but I mostly forget to use it. I open with Cheap Shot (for the instant 3 to 4 combo points) then Hemorrhage, then Eviscerate. Most of the time the target will be dead. If the target is long lived, I will use "Rupture" instead of "Eviscerate" on the 1st full combo point set, "Vanish" to set up "Cheap Shot" for the 3 to 4 combo points, refresh "Hemorrhage" and "Eviscerate"...Still alive? "Preparation" "Vanish","Cheap Shot" etc... I know I have some useless points placed and came here to get the low down. Still great things to learn from, thanks man!

    -You didnt mention that horde rogues would prefer WF totem over instant poison, especially when sword build

Even you dying before the fight wont change the result :D As a rogue, just go into raid, dance half the fight, then roll 100 on everything, gg. Then get group of 2 another rogues and just go and instantly kill everyone you see with all 3 of you ambushing them.

    A lot of good content in this video, although min-maxers actually continue the 1 point slice and dice usage throughout most fights. 1 point SND is the most efficient cost/time and if you have thistle tea worked correctly in your rotation, this method is better than the 1 snd - 5snd - 4-5evis - 5 snd -5 evis described in the video. Additionally, Juju Flurry is highly underrated and should be considered.
    Pro-tip for no-life rogues wanting MORE dps - if you have exhausted everything else, "bogling root" will be your friend. This thing doesn't look like much, but when you have every other consumable going, you can eek out just a bit more and go even further beyond!
    The consumables section is kinda bad, though. Sorry, but many things there don't stack. juju power doesn't stack with firewater, assay and mongoose look like they stack but don't, etc. Also missing some key consumables in their place, like flurry, giant growth, and bogling root (okay, 2 aren't "key" but will help a little).
