I'm not going to discuss this with the likes of you. Your post is allready telling me that there aint discussion possible with your so called bis ambush/backstab/crit setup and i can clearly see that you not really understand playing pvp and the importance of all stats combined wich makes a toon bis and not just focussing on a single thing. You have to find the best way to gear your toon in all situations and you have to take notice that there are more situations then just burst and vanish again wich is not the reality by playing pvp. Maby it is in a 1v1 situation but defo not in battlegrounds and arena where you are dealing with more persons and the chance you get attacked by more then just 1 wich makes having stamina also important for twinking and same goes for the resi.
Also you are talking about over capping with the eye patch when i allready can see in your profiler that you over capped that toon allready even after you changed the boots and lost 10 hit rating, so what are we talking about here? In my example i left hit out on shoulders wich makes the hit from the eye patch a nice welcome.
Im allready glad that you changed the rocket boots into prisoner shoes wich are way better. Im allready having a 24 rogue and im playing it frequently and i dont have the feeling you ever did by reading the post above nor the gear list thread for 24s.
Also profiler is showing a 12/12/12 of the bandit belt and that one is defo not dropping from satchels up from level 15. You might want to look at your profiler for that.
Not sure what I did to provoke such hostility, you said it yourself, my sets are purely opinion based which is why I look for so much feedback on every set.
I took the time to put together a gear set using the pieces you mentioned, and while it may have more of a survivability factor, I still feel my set is better in certain aspects.
I switched the shoulders, helm, rings, and bracers to what you suggested, if there was anything else you wanted me to change let me know and I'll alter it.

Now to start with, I understand that there are many different approaches to playing a rogue. This is just the style that has been used by myself and many other guilds in all different brackets and it's one I stick to when considering premades. I understand that many people may disagree with it, which is why I try to be as open as possible to all different sets of gear suggestions.
The comment I made concerning the eyepatch was only if you were to use my gearset, swapping only the boa helm for the eyepatch, because that would just be going over hit cap, while sacrificing crit.
As far as shoulders go, yes in my gearset you could switch shoulder with pvp ones and still be hit capped, but I maintain my point of resilience being a less than useful stat on a rogue. When you put on the Exceptional shoulders, you gain 5resil, which only equals 2.04 percent damage reduct, and you gain 2 stam. While the pve shoulders only give you 1 agi, which is 2 Atk power and 0.10%hit, it's still better gain than 2 stam and a 2% damage reduc on a twink thats primary focus is damage.
In regards to the previous profile that had the rocket boots, it was an incorrect gear choice that I changed after some consultation with other players, but that was also in January when those boots were still on it, so imo water under the bridge.
I'm not sure why the belt is coming up for 12/12/12 for you, just checked it on mine and it came up as 5/5/5, and that's since the last edit in January, here's a pic showing that

The final tally would be (In using your set), gaining 21 stam, and gaining 5resil, while losing 10 agi, losing 2.71% crit, and losing 0.87% dodge.
