If you want to use a fist, swap those Mace Specialization points into Fist Weapon Specialization. If you have a mace, keep the points in Mace Specialization right where they are. You can use a slow mainhand (2.6 - 2.8 speed) mace or fist in the main hand and you still want a fast off hand sword (1.5 or 1.4 speed) for this build.

This is particularly true during Phase 2 when you are raiding Tempest Keep and Serpentshrine Cavern.Ĭombat Sword Hybrid 16/45/0 Rogue DPS Talent Build Whenever the raid you are doing contains a lot of Murderable enemies, you will want to switch the talents from Improved Eviscerate into Murder. If you have another rogue in your raid willing to apply Expose Armor and you don't have to, you can move those two talent points into Vile Poisons instead for a slight boost in personal damage. The offhand speed is incredibly important for both Combat Potency and Sword Specialization - the faster the better.

You will want to use a slow mainhand sword (2.6 - 2.8 speed) and a fast offhand sword (1.5 or 1.4 speed) for this build. It offers the best damage output as well as plenty of combo point generation to be able to apply Expose Armor while also maintaining Slice and Dice.
