- Extremely high threat-transfer capabilities via Tricks of the Trade + burst CDs. When a Rogue is bursting with say, Killing Spree, Hunters aren't capable of comparable threat transfer unless they use Readiness for a second MD.
- The ability to glyph TotT to increase its threat transferring potency by 66%.
- Very powerful AoE threat transfer, once again surpassing that of a Hunter.
- Powerful sustained AoE and ludicrously overpowered burst AoE.
- +4% Physical Damage debuff.
- Instant application of the -20% Armor debuff (whereas a Warriors have to stack Sunder Armour to 5 stacks).
- The ability to Vanish + Cheap Shot and land a substantial 4 second stun that doesn't DR with other stuns.
These are some of a Combat Rogue's notable advantages that see a lot of use on LK and RS 25hc.
