49 Hemo Rogue Build

Hi Lads!

So I'm brand new to the forum and had a peek at thr rogue guide posted here, although I noticed I couldn't see a talent spec guide for a 49 Rogue

I'm using swords and wanted to go for a hemo build. However, I usually see people go Hemo/assassination. But this confuses me a bit since, at 49, there's hardly any hit gear to be had, and 5% hit is needed to not miss abilities. I would imagine that missing your cheap shot would be an instant loss a lot of the time against certain classes, i.e immediately getting feared (I'm not UD).

With that in mind, this was my first go at a 49 PVP build. Looking for any and all advice (Can't post links yet as this is my first post)

Edit: I forgot to note, I'm playing a Nelf, hence I'm not sure if 5/5 in imp stealth has the full effect?

Hey Slash. Here is one of the two specs that I run as Hemo swords: https://classic.wowhead.com/talent-calc/rogue/-303004102-500243100332121

You only need 4% hit if you get the Blackstone Ring from Princess in Maraudon which gives 1% hit. Then you're fine at 5% hit cap. Since you're Hemo spec, you don't need to spec 2 points into Imp Sinister strike because you'll never be using it. Hemo replaces Sinistry strike; lower energy cost for pvp; easier to build combo points for better stun locking capabilities. Also, you never need more than 4 points into camouflage being able to get out of combat in 6 seconds coinciding with it reduces your stealth CD by 4 seconds. Improve sprint is also amazing to have.

There's an entire discord for 49 horde and ally twinks with tons of information for classes: https://discord.gg/RvJCDfdX
 
Hey mate!

Thanks for the tips and info, will definitely make those tweaks. Also, do you have the name of the discord? The invite link expired it looks like. I'm part of one called '49ers' at the moment, but the guide they link to is the same one I found here which is only a BiS list and not talents.

You are welcome to present talent discussions in 49ers discord. Many seasoned rogues there whom will be more than happy to help.
