Pop!

Ok, now that that's out of the way, what's for favorite spec for your rogue?  I'm currently 5/0/24 - prep spec with five in malice.  That way I'm hard to find, drop out of stealth to do massive crits and start combat with as many combo points as possible.

What do you use?

Ouch!

I use CB/Prep spec atm. It seems to work well against game mobs and other players alike. I might switch back to Seal Fate when I hit 60 though. I miss that one.

Sometime soon I'll be making a set of test rogues at level sixty... one for each spec.

spec really depends on what kinda weapon you use....IE..sword/mace or daggers...and what you plan on doing with the spec...PVE or PVP

If you need help or questions on the rogue class, i can try to help..been playing rogue since release..

Darkling

I use daggers only. Lower damage than swords or maces, but I get more speed out of them. I'm spec'd the same for now. Although I feel like Seal Fate built my combo points up faster (and even though it's not much, that 10 extra energy point was a bit of help).

Seal fate is a really nice build...but main question is ...Do you want a spec for pve or pvp purposes? CB/Prep is also a awesome build but moreso built for pvp purposes...Seal fate is more for pve.also if your seal fate you prob want more crit% and a harder hitting dagger, since crit = more combo points..

Interesting... I'm currently doing PvE only to advance to 49, where I'll camp the BGs day and night.

This is what I was thinking about, a CB/Prep build with some combat added in: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=f0eMoxZhfi00yzZV0x

Well, I've respec'd. I am now 31/2/18. I had to keep imp sap for now. I'm mainly seal fate though. The 2 I have in combat went into sinister strike to reduce the energy cost of the ability. It is nice haveing that extra 10 points in my energy bar now due to vigor.

I did notice my crit hits do less damage now, but the damage is more often due to fast combo points building up. The mobs die faster ]:D. I need to try it out in pvp again.

Looks cool.  I was going to play around with talents after they update our tree.

I play around with them now...probably why i don't have my 60 mount yet.

Respeced combat with five in malace:

Even with a sword OH, I've doubled my damage and improved my crit chance by 5%.  The new toys are also fun, but I miss imp sap.

I respeced last night to a modified combat deal. 5/27/19. I had to keep Imp Sap for now. However, I'm really not used to this spec. I miss my Prep/Premed and Hemo. I also miss my quick cooldowns of Vanish and Blind. I will post a link to show what point went where. Unfortunately, I have to make this work for as this respec took me down to 18g. Oh well.

im combat mostly on my alt rogue, and enough points to have imp sap with ghostly strike. the rest will go into combat swords/mace.

I lied: got two points in the wrong place.  Here's the corrected version:

It took me about a day to get used to it, but I've grown to love it.  I do so much more damage now; it's insane!  I've taken to soloing parts of the SM for cash... something I found impossible on my priest at the level.

DB, what's your respec cost up to now?
