[Osiriis]

bad ass post alot of new comers would do well to read this great job man

[Jackhill]

Could you tell me what the PvP hit cap is?

[Dntryme]

Just go for 5%.

[Resko]

Thank you for this information, it gives basic to improve your own rogue play.

[moarkish]

You forgot to mention for chest piece use Carapace of sun and shadow instead of brutal & for legs brutal instead of immortal dusk, armor pen does not work

[Dntryme]

armor pen does not work

Proofs?
You would even lose three red gems, lol.

[VinylScratch]

You may wish to update this list for the removal of PVE gear. Of course it won't require an actual overhaul of the guide, just the omission of a few suggestions. Otherwise it looks good, although I personally prefer to use spell pen on cape for the bonus damage and help with applying poisons to my targets as well as the damage increase.

Also even if armour pen wasn't working, why would you try to replace something that would result in a loss of sockets? This isn't Cata where you can reforge, sockets are pretty much the deal breaker on items. An item can have 20 attack power more but no sockets and I'd take an item that had at least two sockets over it just for that reason alone in most cases. Not to mention this isn't Wrath and beyond where almost EVERY SINGLE ARMOR PIECE has 2+ sockets. I think in most cases on BC you get like what, 7?
