I have alot of gear currently, and i cant decide which combo is gonna give the best dps.
my question: how do you decide which gear to pick?

i've looked on shadow panther and picked the highest ranked peices off the list. does the list include set bonuses? i wouldn't want 2/3 primalstrike or just one peice of T4

i'd like your advice on what i should be wearing....sorry for the list but couldn't figure how to link each piece

currently i have:

Head:
Maleic mask o shadows

Shoulders:
T4, T5, Bladed Shoulderpads of the merciless (with 2x8hit) and Swiftstrike Shoulders, Gladiator's leather Spaulders

Back:
Vengeance Wrap(4crit8ap) i have the badges for Dory's embrace

Chest:
Primalstrike Vest, chest of the conniver

Wrists:
Primal strike Bracers, Master assassiwristwraps(8hit gem)

Gloves:
T4, Gladiator's leather gloves

Waist:
Girdle of Treachery, Primalstrike Belt, Bladeangel's Money Belt( 4agi6stam )

Legs:
T4, midnight legguards(2x 4hit4agi and 1x 4crit6stam)

Feet:
Nyn'jah's Tabi Boots (15stam and 16ap), Edgewalker Longboots(16ap 8hit)

Finges:
Voilet signet of the master assasins, Ring of 1000 marks

trinkets:
Bladefist's breadth, Dragonspine trophy, romulo'spoison vial, skyguards silver cross( i use when i grind)

weapons:

You need advice on how to spell, more like it. You advise others, you seek advice.

Honestly if you've gotten to level 70 and gotten into T5 instances and you don't know how to gear, you're dumb and should just put your rogue right back on ebay.

it's not that i dont know how to gear, i'm pretty sure i know which pieces are gonna give me the best results, but it never hurts to ask.

what i real want is not a to be told which pieces to wear, but a way of calculating which pieces will increase my dps the most. but i think i found what i was looking for on shadow panther. his MAEP formula seems exactly what i needed.
The only thing it doesn't cover is the set bonus from my T4 how much AP Hit and crit can i sacrifice to keep this bonus?

Any of the pieces in the same slot would be better than the Primalstrike.

The primalstrike set has a total of 12 hit, and hit is the single most important stat for raiding rogues.

I would say go with T4 gloves and legs, T5 shoulders, chestguard of the conniver, Tabi boots, the DST and the poison vial.

Thats what i would've suggested although i woulda used Dragonspine Trophy and Bladefist's Breath, and then get the Insignia of the Horde for PvP and for bosses that fear. :)

Wrong: Armor sets

For example, two set T4 bonus = +30 MAEP.

Either one works, really. It's just a matter of how close to the hit cap he is without the Poison Vial equipped. If he's over 300 hit Bladefist's (or Bloodlust Brooch) would be better. If he's under 300 hit ROmulo's would be better.
