WotLK [Guide] Combat PvP Tips & Tricks

[FeiLang]

wanted to say thanks, because not enough people ever do.

I was wondering something when I read the section that says how to beat UH DKs.
The thing is, you said the ghoul will die more or less when you Kidney Shot the DK, but what do you do when the ghoul has pretty much the same HP you have?
With glyph of the ghoul + some talent in the UH tree, the ghoul will inherit 80% of the DK's Stamina, Strength and Resilience.
So the question lingers, what to do in this case?

WEEEE Rofl update now? :D

Great guide! May I request that you implement enchants,weapon choices, gems,etc. for noobs. That way it will make it complete for people just starting out. Just a thought; Combat PVP is rare to come by and the guides are even harder,but great guide!

I think your friends might be onto something.

You underestimate combat, it's not nearly as bad as people claim it is.

hey guys quick combat pvp spec question. Here is my spec:

http://armory.molten-wow.com/calcula...00000000000000

ok so what my question is what do i put those last 3 points into? my first thought was imp eviscerate. but im not sure if thats so smart really, its nice now at lvl 74, but it doesnt seem to scale well at end. Then my second thought was to put it into setup, since dodging already helps me with unfair advantage, i thought this would be a great addition. I realized that this would only really help me vs melee classes, which combat already excels in defeating. So then my final thought was to put it into Initiative, it would be nice to have a 3 point cheap shot or 2 point garrote.

i just wanted to know what you guys think.

ps- id rather not put it into malice becase im going fist weaps, and that specialization is crit chance already

hello .. i dont abt molten .. but i have tried combat pvp on retail (i dont know the bugs on molten well) .. then only time it works in when ur running rogue/retribuiton palladin .. coz the game is over in like 20 secs .. Doesnt work at all in 3's majorly becoz of the sharing damage aspect .. 3 players +pets etc etc .. basically if ppl surive the burst the rogue is pretty much done for .. yes ? no preperation = no extra evasion ,sprint , vanish ? Survive killing spree and win .. thats what i think and also the reason its not viable .

bumping for some input

Why not Combat Potency? Energy gains are never bad.

i was thinking that, but im using a 2.6 off hand for more burst dmg with my KS. I also just thought of finishing off cqc and putting 2 into Imp snd

Weapon swap for KSpree?

That's one option

You underestimate combat, it's not nearly as bad as people claim it is.

It's kind of like beast master hunter, except BM hunter is probably better. At least from a rogue vs rogue stand point all I have to do is vanish killing spree and I win every time.

Same strategy against BM hunter, you vanish beast wrath and then wait until its over and then engage and they can't do anything worthwhile to you.
