hey, im basically 99% of the time a pve rogue it's all i do, raid and run heroic's but i've been offered the chance to gear up my shaman to be a decent elemental shaman. so that mean's retiring my rogue so i figured i would just turn him into a pvp rogue but that's were the questions start and my pvp noobness begins.

im not a complete noob, but when it comes to gear i am, mace's are clearly the spec to be so i plan to pick up a S1 OH mace and just use it with fool's bane that i have in my bank. i have s3 gloves, and picked up s1 shoulders because i felt that legs helm and chest were better s3 wise cause i love ignore armor so thought it might be a waste to farm those pieces of S1 over some of the nice vindicator stuff.

so i now have a 2p set bonus and will start farming av like crazy to pick up the vindicator set.. my real question tho is gems? what am i looking at gem wise, pve i stack hit like crazy but in arena you really dont need much over 5% so whats being stacked other then stamina? are you all stacking AP, crit or agi?

also after i get full vindicator set and maybe the veterans ring i might grab more S1 gear.

well hopefully i dont get flamed for being a pvp noob, and can get some good knowledgeable info back from you guys so i can begin my days as a arena rogue.
thanks.

P.S. feel the best way and only chance i have at reaching 1850 is gear first then weapons, but im sure a lot of you also think that.
i run 2s with a BM hunter and gone like 9-1 with no res and swords so hopefully with maces and some res this team will work out. also have a 3s but not sure what to fill the last spot with, its the hunter and i.

Most rogues will tell you that once you hit a certain level of hp, generally around 10-11k, you start focusing on your other stats.

Since I'm really not a PvP kind of fellow, I couldn't give you any advice from experience, but rather just relay the information that I've heard around the proverbial water cooler.

I'm using Purple Gems in my Red slots for (+stam +AP) and Green Gems for (+stam +res) in my yellow sockets, as well as a +AP Halaa red gem. I'm still not to 10.5K yet, but those are great PVP gems.
