ok Dude here we go:
For your undergeared gear (T8'ish) check the first post on this page:
http://elitistjerks.com/f78/t37112-wotlk_rogue_gear_discussion/
It shows BiS items for the T8 content. It also shows what to gem for with that gear. Keep in mind that your 4 piece T8/8.5 rotation is something like this rotation i used:

here This is for a combat build only: samperor wrote:
The way i open is garrote -> KS so DP should be 5 stacks then. 2 X SS, SnD. Adrenaline rush for 5 pt rupture. 5 X SS then 5pts SnD + BF. Refresh rupture, after that i can mostly get 2 sets of 5pts Evisc in there before starting the cycle again. You cycle may depend on your glyph choice.

I'm using the Killing Spree, rupture and SnD glyph
The 4 piece T8 set bonus will perform great until you get better gear, then you need to switch to the new build with the corresponding Glyphs and rupture less rotation. The reason being that the 4 piece bonus is extremely good.
Now i only need to find the old build...
Ok, remade from memory:
15-51-5 Do not ever ever ever open with ambush. Matter of fact remove it from your UI. You open with garrotte so you don't need another bleed (for Hunger for Blood) until it runs out. In combat you also open with garrotte.
You spam envenom at 4 or 5 combo points because it will refresh your Slice and Dice (SnD).
Remember i used combat so i cannot tell you if the old muti build is better with the T8 gear or not, I'm thinking the new cookie cutter build will be better for muti even when gemming the "old way". Some muti rogue can perhaps help you better with this :D
