21 Rogue

I have had this character geared for quite some time now. I used to go by the name Blood on Ravencrest, but recently moved to Draenor. I don't play it as much as I used to, because you can only take so much of this bracket before you go nuts, but if you have any suggestions on gear worth trying, I'd like to hear them. And before you tell me to, I am not going 22 for gouge. It's a shitty ability, and I can do the same with bombs; minus the ridiculous energy cost and positional requirement.

On the real though, can't see anything that would be better.

Right, it's not like gouge has 1/6 of the cooldown of bombs, 2x the duration and requires no mats :p

Not like it's needed though when p2p rogue 2-shots anything anyways. Gear looks good 5/5

It can also be dodged/parried, which can be a pain, especially during evasions. It's unreliable, and I've yet to have the bombs fail on me.


Yeah, there is that but I really didn't consider it because of shitloads of mats it requires.

Eight Bronze Bars (8g), two Iron Bars (1g), four Heavy Stones (60s) and four Medium Leather (8g) adds up to a total of 17g 60s. Those are the current prices on my realm, and what most people don't realize, is that each mortar you craft has 8 charges. So, per bomb, it roughly equates to 2g. I don't know how other people are doing financially, but I find that raiding with a 90 one night would cost me more than making 100 of these bombs; it's very close to nothing.

On the realm I have those toons, I have no source of income :)

I think you should try gouge more. Healers don't dodge/parry much, and it's pretty hard to use long-cast time, can't move while casting bombs against anyone else. Make sure it's bound to one of your very easy to press keys. I like it right under my middle finger waiting to go. Effective energy management means you should always have energy to gouge or be close to being able to gouge, unless you are unloading for a high percentage chance KB. Maybe like someone said if you are 2 shotting everything it doesn't matter, but occasionally you will be up against organized and geared toons where your ability to control 1-2 healers will make the difference while your ranged dps gets some kills.

In WoD it looks like they will drop the facing requirement too, in case you have a problem with latency.

edit: very nice gear btw
