Top 3 Tips for Rogue PVP

Rogptor | September 3, 2009

There’s a brand new WoW site coming up that has some good PvP stuff with more coming, WorldOfWarcraftChamber.com. The Author of the site has kindly agreed to write the following article.

1 - Know how to re-stealth

If you can’t re-stealth in combat, you are drastically reducing your survivability. The main techniques for acheiving this are to

blind and wait to leave combat
gouge/kidney shot your oppenent and run out
get your oppenent crippled and sprint away
vanish

2 – Don’t blow all your energy

If you sit on a person and spam mutilate, you won’t have enough energy for legitamite burst.

- for example, get 5 combo points, wait for full energy, then KS (Kidney Shot) and you will be able to, assuming you are Assassination, mutiliate twice then eviserate.

It’s more efficient burst than if you were to KS with 25 energy and maybe get 1 mutilate and some auto attacks in.

3 – Know the different playstyles and adapt

You don’t try and beat a warrior the same way you beat a priest do you? There are unique ways of handling each class. Generally though, the two main styles a rogue can play are burst and control.

Burst: When you do a lot of damage in a short period of time. This usually involves getting back into stealth again multiple times to get max damage possible.
Control: When you use all CC (Crowd Control) methods available to control an opponent and take them out of the game, so to speak. This means you have to always leave enough energy to gouge and be ready to kick the right school magic. Also blinding into a sap can be a game breaker when speaking in terms of arena.
Defensive: A rogue who needs to be”defensive” would simply try and avoid as much damage as possible. This would include moves like evasion, vanish,blind, dismantle, gouge, and trying to re-stealth.
