Rogue Arena Team

[blast3r]

So, fellow rogue boxers. Anyone here doing arena? If so, what talent tree are you using? I have 5 rogues almost fully geared with BG epics and am curious about maybe trying arena out. Currently dual-spec'd Sub/Combat.

Not me but why not try : Every rogue different spec, and then add 2 rogues with the spec what has the most utillity:P

Not sure how good this will be, but interested in seeing it.

Did one round and it was a disaster. Not going to give up, though. :)

I remember Asonimie was running several rogues in the beta on PTR.
There were a few movies posted, and they looked quite capable of killing people quickly.

I opted for Druids over Rogues, for a few reasons.
Healing capability (even pathetic heals as Ferals) and in particular Rez and Battle Rez were appealing.

Rogues have very good stealth.
So you can pick when to fight and when to avoid things... at least in Battlegrounds or world pvp (killing NPC's in their cities if need be).
You could have each Tricks of the Trade the next Rogue, for a DPS boost.
A rogue with cooldowns can be a horrible opponent in a one on one situation.
I like a lot of the toys in Combat, like Sprint removing movement impairing effects, or Adrenaline Rush + Fan of Knives.
But I also really like Mutilation and Preparation; I loved that spec, in WotLK.
