    Re: Best BoA's for Rogue?

    I m using Venerable Dal'Rend's Sacred Charge (MH) and Battleworn Thrash Blade (OH). Both have Crusader enchant.
    I can kill things quite quickly and if one ( or both ) sword(s) proc it takes only some seconds to get a mob down.

    For Questing / Grinding get 2 swords and put lifestealing / +15 agil on them and have at it.

    For BG leveling get the X2 Heartseekers, get an ambush sub spec and put +15 agil on both. Did this on my alt rogue and got wrecking ball at 34 - its incredibly effective on targets with no resil. could get a lifestealing on the MH although that will become less useful as you level up.

    Crusader is a pretty bad enchant for rogues as STR dosnt really offer anything besides AP and it as a TERRIBLE proc rate (1 or 2 PPM) Stick with 15 agil and you will do fine

    I took 2x http://www.wowhead.com/?item=42944 and went sub->51->mutilate. On early levels everything dies when you look at them, having the BoA gear, and sub was nice choise for world pvp and random BGs (ambush, optional hemo, 5pt evi, NEEEXT). Mutilate, just becouse things start to resist more beating around there..

    Having Crusader on both weapons is awesome, both pve and pvp: selfheal and AP boost for burst (they can stack).

    it will NOT make or break you I would NOT spend time worrying on it since you are LEVELING, imo its a matter of just getting it done :S (but hey thats me...)

    Remember that the only downside to a slow offhand for Combat is that lack of CP procs, and that's generally not a big deal leveling. If I had to do it again, and I couldn't go Sub -> Mut with 2xHeartseekers, I'd go Mass/Mass Wound/Wound and tear shit up.

    Don't care about him. On low levels you don't have any better enchants to choose from. Even though it is strength you still get 100 attack power from it.

    Get that yea, get a Slow in mainhand and fast in offhand, level as combat.
    It is the easiest way ( Slow MH for higher SS and fast offhand for more procs from poisons )

    Leveling combat is efficient but not as fun as leveling sub....
    If you go sub get 2 heartseekers or heart on mh kriss on oh and you will preaty much ambush yer way to 50.

    If you want to go combat atm the best heirloom is http://www.wowhead.com/?item=48716...

    from there you can either
    a) use a kriss as OH or
    b) keep an eye out for good blue/purple fast maces for an oh that you can change along the way

    Imo http://www.wowhead.com/?item=44096 makes a horrible rogue Oh for any spec.. but again thats just me

    As he said, I would prefer 15agility for BG leveling as well. After little googling I have to say that I have underestimated lifestealing a bit for PvE.
    Crusader: 1.78 DPS (1 AP class) , 1.66 HPS (healing per second)
    Lifestealing: 2.36 DPS , 2.36 HPS
    15 AGI: 1.07 DPS (+1 AP class), bit of dodge/crit
    In pure numbers Lifestealing is superior leveling enchant. But it's shadowschool spell which can be resisted and there are lots of mobs with increased shadowresistance. If youre only hitting mobs on or under your level and dont count mobs who have loads of shadowresistances, go with Lifestealing.
