Leveling a rogue, which spec and heirlooms?

[Bajser91]

I'm starting a rogue, I just wonder which spec and heirlooms that are the best for leveling =)

[Mugly]

hAirlooms are pro

i hear combat is the best for levelling

[Daerken]

Combat might be the best, but it's boring as F.

You should really try sub. leveling, when you get all key abilities like Shadowstep, Premeditation and Preperation you can have a LOT of fun with it. The Ambush and Eviscerate crits also provide happy times.

I go with this really fun in bg quests and randoms : http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sh...cn=Shadowstepp

I leveled as combat quite recently, was shitboring with tons of bandages used. Then I switched to mutilate when I got the awesome ability and I just skyrocketed, killing mobs one after the other... problem is if you get more than 1 :S But then again I used two heirloom daggers. Maybe not the best but it worked nicely for me.

Got kinda sick of stealthing after every mob, especially since it got a bloody cooldown!

Heirlooms thats usefull:

2x badge daggers
2x badge haste trinkets
Shoulders for badges
chest for badges
the bow for badges
and the ring if you happen to win the fishing derby

I did combat with Shadowcraft shoulders/chest, the melee trinket, 1h mace mh and WG heirloom dagger as oh.

Picking really depends on what you want to do at 80. I knew I wanted to stick with combat so I leveled with it and am comfortable with the rotation and abilities. If you know you want to be a dif build at 80, then at least switch to that build several levels before 80 so that you have plenty of time to become accustomed to a new set of attacks.

Sublety, imo.

So you played combat w/ daggers? Quite obvious why it went better when you switched to muti..

E:typo

[Snide]

Combat will probably be the fastest, but go Subtlety when you can get Shadowstep if you get bored of the sinister strike spam.
It may mean using different heirloom weapons though, as I'm not sure how good Sub is without Ambush for leveling.
I do my dailies in my Shadowstep>Ambush pvp spec and I love it

[Muffinator]

both BoA swords, leather chest/shoulders, two haste melee trinkets, combat.

2x badge daggers

I prefer the WG-shoulders. They are better for feral as well, so win-win.

[Merodium]

Personally, I considered going double Venerable Mass, just for the heck of it.
As combat, of course. Not sure how it'll work out though. :P

[akaTheDude]

IMO do NOT spec combat unless u wanna feel like a warrior wearing leather.

[Gajan]

If you want to get to 80 as fast as possible, go Combat swords and faceroll to victory.

If you want to enjoy leveling (BGs, etc...) go Sub with daggers.

I leveled my rogue from 1-80 with Sub and had a great time.

[biobee]

get a buddy lvl together! RAF your account.

fastest ever.... i lvl 7 class from 1 to 80 in a month, using dual log.

[Raxos]

Heirlooms thats usefull:

2x badge daggers
2x badge haste trinkets
Shoulders for badges
chest for badges
the bow for badges
and the ring if you happen to win the fishing derby

This with assassination/Subtlety dual spec.
I started as combat but it's so boring I started using Subtlety from lvl 40 or smth which also went really well because of ambush crits. You can really kill enemies in a few seconds.
Now (at lvl 64) I use Assassination for PvE and Subtlety for PvP.

In the beginning I used fiery weapon enchant but now I have +15 agi on both my daggers.

[deyndra]

2x badge daggers or MH: sword, dagger: OH
2x badge haste trinkets
Wg shoulders
chest for badges
the bow for badges

- I think I'll go with:
WG shoulders (agi on em)
MH the sword
OH the dagger
and ofc the bow, chest and 2x haste trinkets

and go compat the first levels and see how its work out..
