Close enough?

[Shandera]

G'day, was just trawling through the AH for some lucky pick-ups, came across these http://www.wowhead.com/item=7285 , i'm guessing because they are LW made they've been dismissed as anywhere near BiS for a rogue in comparison to Fang or Foreman's, but I thought i'd ask the community if they are close enough for use, or if people should stick with fang/foreman's?

 

[yougotcriton]

there is no close enough. the point of gearing a twink is to work for BIS gear, not close enough gear. if you aren't trying to bis the toon you aren't trying to play competitively

expertise is good if you are combat, but if you are combat you will play less in stealth, if you play less in stealth you will be easily targeted, and because of that you will need to survive better, so you will need more stamina. bis depends of your playstyle. you can go +hit +expertise +stam and be a great combat rogue, but that imo is harder than +hit +agi +crit and one-two shot guys as a subt rogue. And i am not an expert on 19 rogues anyway, so i am just pointing out my thoughts.

Its the worst, you will get kited endlessly but hunters.

It's a loss of 1 agi 1 stamina, I'd still vote for them being better than fanggloves.



Still, foreman's gloves aren't really hard to obtain, so just head for them instead.

You can use them until your get foreman's but I wouldnt keep them for too long..

^ great place holder but you should still be looking to upgrade.

 

[Curley]

bis or gtfo

 

[imbao]

combat is good if you dont expect to beat hunters

 

[Senr]

BiS is good if you need a crutch.

 

[Shandera]

I hope no-one thinks i'm wearing these, I'll be using fang until I get a foreman's drop. Just to clear that up..
