Rogues are one of 10 classes you can choose from in WoW. A Rogue wields melee weapons and can dish out loads of damage by using special abilities. Most of the attacks a Rogue can make consume an amount of Energy. An Energy bar which shows the available amount of Energy can be found under the hit point bar of the player. Rogues can have a maximum of 100 Energy if you do not count in the talent points and the Energy recovers in time.

You will be able to choose between several races as a Rogue, namely the Night Elf Dwar, Human and Gnome class of the Alliance and the Blood Elf, Undead, Orc and Troll races of the Horde. A Rogue is commonly known for his skills to ‘gank’ other players, which basically means killing players of the other factions on either the battlegrounds or in the arena’s or in PvP areas. Because they can stealth they have an advantage over their enemies. Once in stealth a series of attacks becomes available followed by a series of attacks that become available once they are visible.

The majority of the attacks the Rogues can make award them with combo points. A total of 5 combo points can be built up on their target. The combo points have use because the Rogue also has finishing moves that are stronger if more combo points are applied on the target. If you have 5 combo points on a target you will deal more damage or stun longer in example, than when a target only has one combo point on it.

The Rogue, unlike other classes that can DPS as well, do not have any healing spells or do not have any real tanking capabilities. When you do decide to play a Rogue however you can top damage meters with a bit of dedications. If you want to be on top of the damage list you should know the class well. This means that you must know all the attacks, good talent trees, the best attack rotations, which gear you should chase, which professions you should level and more. To begin with it is good to know which talent trees are good for which purposes and which talents should be chosen and which can be skipped. The three talent trees are called combat, assassination, and subtlety. For more information on WoW class guides, read our review: Warcraft Pros Review

The Combat tree is usually used for leveling. You will become harder to kill and will also be able to do more damage through attacks like Ghost Strike. You will gain a lot of avoidance which means that you will take less hits, both the hit and crit percentage will increase and your offhand will function better which will make leveling up easier.

The Assassination talent tree is usually preferred by players that have reached the level cap and start doing Dungeons and Heroics. The Assassination tree specializes in Backstab and other powerful attacks. Most talents are based on attacking from behind which makes it less good for soloing. Most talents are based on attacking from behind which makes it less good for soloing.

If you have a tank that turns the mob away from you however, you can dish out crazy amounts of damage. If you like to play PvP you should try out the Subtlety talent tree. With it you will get access to talents that will allow you to do a lot of burst damage. The build isn’t suited for PvP because you will lack damage on longer fights.
