even though this pains me greatly, as i believe[d] that daggers are just wtfpwnsauze they have really been cut deep by itemization and new encounters to sword spec. there have been MANY instances where this build has been tested against sword spec and it's been coming short damn near each time.
This whole thread is a work of theorycraft. While I agree that the positioning requirement, as well as the actual specifics of certain encounters, might not be ideally suited for dagger builds, they still win out on paper, as you so aptly stated.

I am going to respec to Combat Mutilate. How should I distribute the points? Should I go down the Assas tree and get mutilate as soon as possible, or should I try to get DW as soon as possible, or should I just go down evenly?
40 Rogue currently so 31 points to re-distibute.

Go with Combat Swords until 55. It's the best grinding build out there, and you won't be able to take full advantage of Mutilate until then.
Once you hit 55, find some nice, slow daggers, and respec 41/0/5 (the 5 points being Opportunity). As you level, put your other points into Combat so you can grab Precision and Imp. SnD as soon as possible.
Once you hit 70, respec to the 41/20/0 build linked at the top of the thread to maximize your DPS (as a Mutilate rogue).
