I've been looking into the Rogue class and was wondering how viable each of the specs are currently for 29's. Basically, I don't care about duels or arena, I'm solely looking for the most efficient spec for WSG, specifically for offense and flag returns.
I scanned a few Rogue threads here, most are about gear, but I found some way back about different specs. Some claimed that Assassination was the way to go. Does this hold any merit? From what I gather, Assassination has respectable damage, but lacks mobility. Are there any Assassination Rogues out there who are playing games now or have played games recently that can comment on how reliable that spec can be in WSG?
I figured Combat would be rather interesting. Improved Sprint, while not as reliable as Shadowstep, would work well with mobility issues. As far as the last point, I was actually thinking of putting it in improved Gouge instead of Revealing Strike. I'm not sure if it's really a smart move, but I figured Gouge was a rather important CC move, and adding an extra second as well as lowering its energy cost seemed pretty useful.
Mostly everyone else seems to be going Sub, and I'm assuming it largely has to do with Shadowstep. Obviously having beefy Ambushes and Hemo is definitely nice too.
Any Rogues out there currently playing who would like to give their opinion on what spec they prefer and why would be great. I know the generic "play around with them and pick what you like" will pop up, but I'd like to hear from others on what they picked and why they like it.
