Weapons and rogue specs

[Deleted]

Hey guys,

I'm fairly new to the rogue class, and I was wondering if there is a spec where you could combine a sword and a dagger?

Thanks in advance!

Combat. Combat can wear a fist/sword/axe/mace on a main hand, and a fist/sword/axe/mace/dagger on the offhand.

Awesome man!

Last I checked backstab only required one dagger. So it should be possible as subtlety too.
It's not really optimal but possible.

There is no setup where that is optimal.

You can do it with Combat or Sub., but you shouldn't.

Why? Last time I checked Combat with slow-MH and fast-OH was probably the best.

It's been a long time then...

Yeah, back in Cata…

Combat Rogues have been somewhat progressively tuned to favor slow-slow thru MoP, and are decidedly tuned in favor of slow-slow in WoD…

Which makes the decision to place the heirloom loot table as such a mystery to me…

Assassination - Daggers

Combat - Axes & Daggers

Subtlety - Daggers & Axes

Now, Ass. is correct, but it seems they needed to set Sub to the same as Ass. & set combat to Axes-only…!

I now need to find a Mythic Garrosh kill before the expert drops for a final shot at a heirloom axe…!

Anyone want to invite me to one via cross-realm goodness…!?! P-P-PLEASE, EDDIE…!!! ;^p

Combat.

While Slow/Slow (aka sword/mace/axe in both hands) seems to be optimal, it's still possible with Slow/Fast (Sword MH, Dagger OH)

[Greenyash]

Assasination for dagger-dagger
Combat for Slow MH/Slow OH (read the description of Mastery)
Subtlety - Dagger MH/anything OH

Damn, I sold my Mythic Fist Weapon for Combat spec and used a mythic dagger instead in my off-hand. :-/
