PVP from WOTLK to TBC

Hi all;
im making rogue at tbc but i never played tbc before.At wotlk; i was around 2.2k exp rogue and i wanna ask how much pvp mechanicks,takticks,openers and rogue gear build change. ty for answer.

Everything is slow mo and you have no dance.

Remember the high-ping Hemo spec that barely anyone used on WotLK? Yeah. You're playing Sub Hemo spam with swords/maces (pref swords because u can also use them as Combat PvE), basically just running around and spamming the **** outta that ability because it does % weapon damage. Forget about stuff like daggers, backstab and ambush. Act like they don't exist.

You have no Shadow Dance, as sukacakers said. Also, no Fan of Knives and TotT. And Envenom, if you ever think about going Assa, consumed poisons.

Because it is. Assa is bad for PvP, Combat is bad for PvP, Sub is made for PvP and for daggers yet it is best played without daggers. If that's not bad, I don't know what is :D

When the best PvP choice for a PvP-oriented class is a non-standard mechanic-abusing variation of one of the specs, with the other 2 not being viable, then you know Blizzard ****ed up.

Cant disagree with previous affirmations.

I'll add two things. Yeah pvp is designed around sub hemo/step spec, since combat got nerfed on 2.3patch. But depending on the combo that you want to play (and bracket ofc) there are always some possibilities to play MUTILATE:
- mutilate+sub dual rogue is fun af but better as human imo to optimise openers in order to dominate trinkets and resets
- mutilate sp, quite enjoyable for the damage aswell but imo better with geared mutilate ofc.

Ofc i'd recommand these spec if u' re able to be geared faster than most of the server cuz it req gear.

I even played harp but it's quite s*** for two reasons. Mobility, lack of energy.
