Fresh 80 Raid Rogue Talent Build
January 29, 2009 by Visin · 12 Comments
I am starting Heroic’s now and it needs a good raid build for my Rogue, what did I choose? You are about to find out. In World of Warcraft WotLK, there was a lack of great swords and for this, I have recently went to daggers. Daggers are faster than swords of course so it will proc your poisons faster and it which will increase DPS caused from higher poison damage. Below I will show you the first dagger raid build that I started with when I hit level 80 less than a week ago.
Mutilate Dagger Raid Build [51/13/7]
I chose this specific Mutilate build because it brought to me everything I needed in a raid specific build which is the following 3 elements…
1. Energy Regeneration - Focused Attacks allows me to regain 2 energy every time I land a critical hit which may not sound like a lot but it does add up when you 4 critical hits in a row easily. With Relentless Strikes you have a 20% chance with each Combo Point to gain 25 energy back on Finishing Moves.
2. Combo Point Stacking - With Seal Fate I have a 100% chance to add a combo point on every critical strike which is GREAT when it comes down to raids and all of the buffs you will have making this able to build up a 5 point Combo Point stack in matter of a few seconds! Also, with Ruthlessness you have a 60% chance with each Finishing Move to gain a Combo Point even adding to the value of this build.
3. High Damage Output - This build has all sorts of different ways to make sure you have high end DPS for the raid. You will be attacking with both daggers at once with this build using Mutilate and stacking poisons with insane speeds!
Assassination Tree:
5/5 Malice
3/3 Ruthlessness
2/2 Blood Splatter
3/3 Puncturing Wounds
5/5 Lethality
3/3 Vile Poisons
5/5 Improved Poisons
1/1 Cold Blood
5/5 Seal Fate
2/2 Murder
1/1 Overkill
3/3 Find Weakness
3/3 Focused Attacks
1/1 Mutilate
3/3 Turn the Tables
5/5 Cut to the Chase
1/1 Hunger for Blood
Combat Tree:
5/5 Dual Wield Specialization
5/5 Precision
3/5 Close Quarters
Subtlety Tree:
5/5 Relentless Strikes
2/2 Opportunity
As you could probably see by the way this talent build works is that you are going to be relying on your poisons to achieve maximum DPS. Try to keep up Rupture at all times so that you will always have that ticking on your bosses. Also it will be benifical on bosses to get a 5 point Slice and Dice up and then every so often refresh the duration of Slice and Dice with either Envenom or Eviscerate, this way you can have faster speeds during the WHOLE fight which will also improve your DPS!
I hope you enjoyed this little build share but if you are like me being a first time Dagger user you will learn it is not so easy jumping into things especially Naxxaramas being ill prepared with your Raid Rogue Talent Build, that would be insane right? Good luck and have fun with this build and if you have any questions just ask away!

5 Issues In Raids and How to Fix them
January 23, 2009 by Visin · Leave a Comment
Have you ever just been in a group with other people and for some reason things were not clicking and the result of that was keeping you from finishing that instance or raid? Well there are a lot of things that can go wrong in raid groups but I am going to go over 5 of them that I think are very important to keep the raid alive and fully functional.
1. No Strategy Here - Some things you will need to work on with a successful raid group is strategy and nothing you can do will get around it. Strategy has been used for aslong as anyone can ever remember and it will always be used (at least for some). A lot of raid groups will just attack the boss and treat it like it is a tank-and-spank when obviously there is a trick to it, that is why you wiped 4 times now.
2. But I Want That Chest Piece - There will always be the whining about gear if you have an immature raid of people and some people may just leave if you do not know them well. Mages arguing about Warlock gear and Hunters arguing about Rogue gear is always common but there are ways to combat this particular issue.
3. What Did You Say, Run WITH the Flames? - Lack of communication can be a downfall to any raid and since my raid’s are always people I know in real life I have got to the point of just calling them up before a raid. Ventrillo is the standard of voice communication in game these days and most guilds have a Ventrillo server you can use.
4. My Greens Will Work Just Fine - Gear. There is one factual thing in World of Warcraft that you can not get around, and that is gear. You must be properly geared for the raid you are planning to attend and you must make sure that it fits your class as well. Keep in mind for Rogue’s that you need more than just damage because sometimes Hit Rating is just as important.
5. So I’m NOT Suppose to Face Pull? - This last one may come off as a little harsh to some but then again some are just not fit to ever raid in World of Warcraft. Your raiders can not be stupid and they may have to be able to think out side of the box sometimes which some have a hard time grasping. So bring who you see fit but just make sure they are at least capable of following simple commands.
Raiding is a difficult procedure and nothing except time, experience and a few kind words of help and encouragement will ever prepare you for the onslaught of troubles that will be accompanied by the great riches of being able to be in a raid. Just keep your eye on the prize, be smart about your actions and be civilized and those epics will be as good as yours!

Skeleton form skills on last boss of Drak’Tharon?
January 18, 2009 by Visin · Leave a Comment
A Rogue’s life does get kind of interesting you know, we think and we kill, thats about it, but I found something half way useful to most healers or anyone else. This may be already common sense to most but for some it will hopefully help some people out.
Tharon’ja will have more!
When the above is said all players will be turned into skeletons which will have their own sets of skills not normally known to players (at least I hope not). These skills are supposed to be used against the boss to slay him and he is relatively easy enough to take down but for you here is a little tip that may prove useful.
When in skeleton form you are able to open your skillbook (just like normal) and then cast spells like you normally do in World of Warcraft which may help you out some depending on your class or skills. Now this is nothing ground breaking or majorly helpful but it could interest some players and that is what I am here for, to interest the players.
Im… impossible! Tharon’ja is eternal! Tharon’ja… is…
After you have heard those magical words you will soon know that the boss is dead and that you have succeeded in life for just one more day. So go on and pat yourself on the back, you survived on of the easiest instances. If you would like to know anything else just feel free to contact us and we will be able to address anything that you have for us (hopefully).
