    Hey i play an 80 rogue and are currently LF some useful rogue addons / macros so feel free to post them here and discuss them

    Re: Rogue Addons / Macros

    http://www.arenajunkies.com/macros/rogue/ should be all you need.

    I find the most useful to be Cannibalize-Vanish/Stealth. This will Cannibalize a close corpse and vanish in combat/stealth out of combat at the same time, allowing you to be eating while stealthed.

    #showtooltip Cannibalize
    /cast [nostealth] !Cannibalize;
    /cast [nocombat] !Stealth; Vanish

    And sap spamming. This will constantly try to find targets to sap if you spam it, making finding other stealthed targets much easier.

    #showtooltip Sap
    /targetenemy [harm][nodead]
    /targetenemy [noharm][dead]
    /cast Sap

    I also use two for convenient poison applications. Keep in mind 16 is your main hand, 17 your off. Replace those and poisons accordingly for one-click applications.

    #showtooltip Wound Poison VII #showtooltip Wound Poison VII
    /use Wound Poison VII /use Wound Poison VII
    /use 16 /use 17

    As far as addons go, Scrolling Combat Text is useful all around, accompanied by Scrolling Combat Text - Damage. (Don't ask me why it's two different addons). This is especially useful to a rogue because you can enable it to show when you enter/leave combat. Yes, other addons do this and I believe it's possible without addons at all, but I like that you can choose where it'll show up with SCT. This helps a lot for restealthing, and will generally make you more aware of when you should Stealth vs. Vanish, cannibalize, and eat.

    You also will want to get Gladius, assuming you don't already have it for Arena. It pops up a little window with the other team as soon as the gates open, so it's pretty essential for arena as a whole. More on-topic, you can custom tailor it to have different functions, some of the more useful being targeting on click/keybind and blinding on click/keybind.

    IceHUD is also a good one to have, both for PvP and PvE. It'll provide a nice HUD around your character, making it easy to see whatever you want it to display. It can be hard to configure, only because you'll constantly question what you want it to show for a while. (Is enemy mana important? Should I have their castbar here?) It's especially useful for rogues, since you can choose to have a Slice and Dice meter attached, which is infinitely better that squinting at your buff duration. It'll also display combo points, which is obviously valuable. Here's my setup to help you get started, as well as a good cap of my interface:

    From left to right: My health bar (green), my energy (yellow), SnD timer (blue), enemy health (usually green but grey on target dummies). As far as my interface, that's Xperl, Bartender, Chatter, and some others. I like to keep things small. Remember the general rule that the less you have to look away from your character, the better. It's also extremely important to have everything keybound. IceHUD download link:

    Finally, this little addon helps a lot for forgetful rogues during raids. It'll simply pop up a text box upon ready check if your poisons are under 5 minutes, or not applied at all.

    Re: Rogue Addons / Macros

    Well i'm gonna assume that you mean PvE since i don't have shit PVP experience.

    But i'm gonna list some of the addons you could use for PvE with a rogue.

    X-perl Unit frames (makes sure u can see what rupture, deadly poison, EA, etc. in a raid is yours) <- Coulden't live without it! but thats prolly just me.

    iceHUD (Keeps track of your SnD and HfB if your mutilate specced, also shows target casts, channeling etc.)

    Recount (to see if u suck compared to the others )

    Deadly Boss Mod (for all raiders)

    Vission Boss Mod (for all raiders)

    Bartender (makes it able for u to config your bars as you please, also very usefull if u ask me)
