I'm starting a 29 rogue and I'm really struggling in my choice for weapons.

I have a Vendetta and that seems to be the obvious choice with Crippling since it will pretty much never go down.

I'm not sure if I should go dagger spec or sword spec, but atm I'm considering the following:

Dagger Spec ~ [ITEM]Toxic Revenger[/ITEM] / [ITEM]Vendetta[/ITEM]

Thoughts: The TR proc is an aura, rogues will not be able to ambush/garrote you while you are fighting. I could open with [ITEM]Torturing Poker[/ITEM] and if there rogues around I would switch to TR. For Arenas, I'm not really sure as TR seems to be way under in damage, but TR would make sure I can't get Cheap Shotted after a Vanish.



Sword Spec ~ BoA Sword / Vendetta

Thoughts: Nothing much here really. BoA Sword is obviously best but I'm really not certain about using Vendetta in my OH.

Not if they plan on instantly doing it as an advantage, but it will prevent rogues from moving away when they are about to die, and coming back to Cheap Shot later.

<3 Moskau. lol nice guild name.
 
I tried using the Toxic Revenger, but I reaaaaally didnt like having to rely on the proc. That may just be me though. I say torturing poker all the way
 
The correct answer is tp mh vendetta oh.



Tr breaks your ambush vanish saps, it breaks gouge, and frankly, its just not worth the dps loss.



Regardless, not bad for thinking outside the box.

Hmm, I'm wondering if I should use TR for big WSG fights where I won't be sapping much.
 
Sharpened Scarlet Kris > Vendetta = WSG Dagger Imo.



Sharpened Scarlet Kris

Binds to account

(15 damage per second) Speed: 1.50 (Between WSG & Vendetta)

+4 Stamina

That's terrible compared to Vendetta and it's 19 stats.
 
[item] vendetta[/item] vs [item]Sharpened Scarlet Kris[/item]

@ 29 stats on SSK are:

22 DPS - 23-42 @1.5 sec speed

6 stam

8 ap

4 resil rating



More DPS, comprable stats (although weighted more towards stam/resil than dmg), and a only slightly slower speed.



0.2 speed difference is a loss of crippling procs per minute. Not a huge deal.
 
The point of vendetta is to get more than 1 poison refresh per gcd. This is especially useful when people abolish/cure poison often and you need it refreshed quickly.



Its so much better than the other options it hurts.

Even when Glyphed for it?

I would so much rather get Vendetta than waste a Glyph slot.

That being said, you don't appear to understand what he means.

GCD = 1.5 seconds. Vendetta is the only weapon (blue) under 1.5, it's not about the procrate, it's about the refresh rate.
