    HAT question

    Hello all, as many probably know HAT isnt as popular as Muti or Comba, however i have a question regarding our performance in raids. I was wondering the other day what would Armor Pen do for HAT rogues, firs i tought its only for combat cause they can have mace spec and that gives 15% armor pen, and reaching 100% on trinkets proc is easier , however some even in CQC build combat are gemming for Armor pen. I myself have Greatnes trinket and still stuck with Mirror, alltho i have good chances on geting a thorim10man armor pen trinket but dunno if i should aim at something else. Im a HAT/muti speced rogue, my question is is it worth to go for Armor Pen come 3.2? ( better gems ) or even now? HAT gains alot from talens , the Agi % and AP % buffs are rly great but wouldnt geming fro Armor pen be Gimping the spec? im even wondering if 3.2 comes to drop Agi gems and go all the way for AP.

    im sure that i can find some good specialists here what u guys think

    By most theorycraft i've seen on HAT, ArP is godly. Your primary source of damage is physical, so ArP would seem to shine quite well imo =D. All that eviscerate spam would make good friends with the ArP cap.

    HAT gets 15% extra agi, so Im pretty sure you want to gem pure agi. For combat rogues arp is only slightly better than agi, so close that lots of rogues gem agi anyways for the extra survivability. So with the 15% extra that HAT gets its a no brainer imo. Just a note, really fast offhand with deadly poison, and your main hand weapon speed does not matter, you want the highest dps one you can get. I could be wrong on this but I think 5 points in aggression is better then 3 points in lightning reflexes. Something else you might try is dropping a point from the assass tree to get shadowstep. 20% damage increase on a 30sec CD + its fun as hell and provides higher time on target. Do you have any WWS of you as HAT?

    unfortunatly i dont have any WWS , as a HAT, well Elitejerks saying that those 3/3 in LR are rly important, and the Shadowstep. well i dont think its rly that much of a difference with the shadowstep there arent rly that many bosses it can be usefull on, and it lasts only for 10sec and the inc dmg is only for one ability. So just imo its not worth it, well i was posting this post mainly to get an answear if i should go for the thorim hard trinket with armor pen, cause either yogg or fl hitrate AP proc trinkets arent for me so great since im allready over the cap with Hit. thanks for ur help

    Comet's Trail from algalon 25 and Dark Matter from Algalon 10 are both better.

    For what spec? Cause I am certain Mjolner is better for combat.
