current status of rogues?

[Ron Burgundy]

are we underpowered? overpowered? just right?

which spec performs best in pve/pvp respectively?

[-Raer-]

I'd say just right. All 3 specs are viable in PVE. PVP I have no clue because I'm bad at it.

Subtlety is better for pvp because of the extra CC mechanics

[Ashvael]

I wouldn't say we're overpowered but we're strong in PvE. Hopefully we'll not get butchered in Warlords like in most other expansion starts!

Near the top as always for PvE. Assuming they keep up with tradition, combat/sub will finish the expansion as top dps specs, and assassin will take over at the start of next expansion, only to be surpassed by combat halfway through.

Seem pretty solid to me, as usual.

Hoping WoD diversifies the specs more, and I want them to be brave and not too conservative with the changes.

Rogues are typically weak at the start due to scaling.

In early MoP we weren't really weak, it's more that after years of being the only class with a big bag of tricks for PVP, the new talent trees gave everyone a big bag of tricks, so we lost our privileged "niche".

Pretty much in the same situation as the last time this was asked, and all the answers are readily available across numerous threads in this forum. Since this has high "troll potential" and for people to get in heated arguments when they even half disagree, and since everything is already answered elsewhere, I'm closing this.
