From what I've read combat daggers is better in terms of DPS when it comes to raids, as it is easier to get behind your target which is where you need to be.
I'll probably be moving to daggers once my rogue hits 70 and starts raiding.
Combat daggers will yield higher DPS in theory. However, in practice, Combat Swords or 11/23/27 will yield the highest DPS, depending on your gear level and the size of the raid, how much melee DPS you have, what kind of buffs you have, etc.
Also, to the OP, read the FAQs, and <insert degrading flame here>.
For <insert degrading flame here>, I would accept "drink bleach" or "die in a fire" or anything in the spirit of either of those, that involves bodily injury or bizarre death scenarios.
But yeah, like I said, I read up on the FAQs, but was told that 2.3 may have affected some of what was written there, so I thought I'd double check and ask to see if the situation was the same. I suppose I should have said all of that on the first post rather then the third, but I suppose I was tired.
From what I gather though from the debate between dagger and swords is that it is a close race between the two, but since I can only base what I know by what is given me as of now, since the sword spec is so gear dependent, it could either be better or worse, depending on the gear.
Since there are players that know how to crunch numbers a lot better than I do, I figure someone will be more than happy to jump in and correct any of my assumptions, but I'm guessing it would be a good idea to at least start with a dagger spec, and switch off to swords at a later time when I have more Kara epics. That seems like probably a fairly safe way of handling it for the time being.
