3.2.2 changes and Mut offhandFollow

Just a quick question about Mutilate spec and the 3.2.2 patch changes for rogues.

With the change to Master Poisoner (3/3 = envenom has a 100% chance to no longer eat your DP stacks) is it worth macroing in a slower offhand wep once your Deadly Poison reaches 5 stacks? I've always assumed the reasoning behind having a really quick dagger in your offhand was to stack DP quicker but I may have missed something else as to why this should/shouldn't be done?

Those damn poisons and the constant changes to them are probably the most confusing thing about rogues these days. I'd love to hear an answer myself as I've completely lost track.

Really wish they would change the poisons themselves whenever they feel the need to tune damage rather than messing with procs and such.

Well, I was trying to find the exact discussion I had read a few days back on Elitist Jerks but, of course, I didn't save the page. I did find something on EJ that you might wanna read over if you have time. It's a bit lengthy but it might have a few answers for you. I didn't have time to sift through it, though. Stupid class >.<

You still will want a faster OH for FA procs.


Trash, go ahead and use double 1.8s, but a long 2-5min fight you will want the faster OH.


For every .1 in speed, you can lose 10dps on the weapon and still break even so.


Starting with two 216dps 1.8s.

Would be the same as a MH 216dps 1.8 and a 196dps 1.6 OH.

So if you are sacrificing a ton of dps for speed, make sure it fits the rough equation here, otherwise go with your best DPS weaps now.

I have been pretty unlucky with fast offhand dagger drops lately which is probably why I have been contemplating 2 of these daggers instead of this. This toon, being an alt, doesn't see a huge amount of raid time outside of VoA, Sarth+d, heroics and the occasional Uld10 pug so unless I get really lucky my choices are limited. I've been trying for Webbed Death but these days its rare to find a Naxx25 pug that isnt filled with wipes and repair bills.

I have the opposite problem, I can't get a good slow dagger.

I have the 10 man Jarraxus, the 10 man Heroic Jarraxus, and the 25 man Beasts. I lost the 1.8 speed Twins Dagger.
