PVP spec woes.Follow

Well, I've recently rolled my first character on a PVP realm (Agamaggan-EU)and I've decided to make a rogue!
Now i'm a sucker for big pretty yellow e-peen numbers so I'm aiming for a high burst damage spec, mainly for PVP (BG's, but also world PVP if theres ever a fair fight)

I've read up (most of) the stickies, aswell as Demea's talent build guide, and it would seem that the best spec for burst is a Subtelty daggers build, with pretty ambushes and the likes, but on reading of the other posts on these forums, such as the Shadowstep ambush post, it seems that daggers+ShS = FAIL.

I would just like to hear any advice you would all have, is it still worth going Subtelty daggers, or is there a better choice now for PVP with 2.3 out.

Thanks in advance.

Leveling as Combat is the way to go, then at 50, it is feasible to spec ShS. The move used to suck, but now it isn't to bad.


Combat is still the best rounded spec for leveling and PVP though.

Ahh I see, well in that case i'll level with Combat then. You say that ShS is now viable at 50 onwards, is daggers still a no-no for this? it seems like theres a lot of +ambush damage etc talents in Subtelty and seems like daggers should be powerful.

ShS daggers is still a lot of fun (and viable) for the 50-60 BG bracket.

Just don't try to level with it.

From 50-60 ShS Ambush is a very good spec and would be exactly what you are looking for, for PVP.

But you would still need to level, and after 60 ShS Ambush starts turning bad.

Perfect! :)

Looks like i'll go Combat til 50, try out ShS ambush til 60, and by then I'll hopefully have a clue about what spec's to use in which situations, Thankyou both for your replies!
