Advice On Build For Dagger Rogue

Post by Tamer

Hi All,

I am looking for some advice for a build for my rogue, i am using daggers and dont want to move to swords or fist. I am not going to be doing any PVP untill maybe lvl 70 then i can re-spec
I have heard combat daggers is the way to go.
I am very new to rogues so can someone please explain what tree i put my points into and where. And then how to use the skills killing the mobs. I.e sinister strike then slice dice etc?
I know its a very noob question but hopefully you can help.
I am Lvl 52 at the min with MH The Shadowfoot Stabber and OH Shadow Blade

Many Thanks.

Honestly, it all depends. When I was leveling my rogue, I did a lot of soloing so I went into subtlety as my core spec for leveling.

That's a base build I would use if I were you. It's built up to 56 just so you can see where to put your sub talents. I put in Hemo when I was leveling cause it was cheaper than SS and you get some bonus damage from it. End game, hemo is a horrible idea for dagger rogues. But for now, it does pretty close to the same damage as SS.

My two cents.

Thanks for that advice Mischieff,
Yeah thats pretty much what i have for my spec at the moment so at least i am going in the right direction.
So when i get to lvl 70 can i keep daggers? if so would i then re-spec to the combat to get max DPS for instances.
I really dont want to move to swords/maces.
I think its me just being stubburn but rogues should have daggers :0P
