WotLK [Lordaeron] Rogue race horde

[kawad]

Hi,

I want to create a horde rogue but i don't know what race is the best for pvp. I don't care about their skin i can play anyone but i don't know which one is good for pvp.

Belf: Aoe Silence
Orc: Resist stun, Racial dps trinket
UD: Fear/charm trinket, cannibalism
Troll: haste but i don't think is that good

Thanks for help guys

Either BElf or Undead. WotF is considered sub-par after Blizz made it partially share CD with the PvP trink, but it's still decent, especially when combined with the occasional Cannibalize you can pull off. BElf is obvious - locking down casters in critical moments is quite OP and only BElves can do that, unless you're specced in Combat for the Imp Kick.

But the BE silence becomes useless against melee class, isn't ?

Human and Nelf are the only pvp race fro rog! End of discussion

I asked for horde. If u can't answer a simple question just don't please.

Depends. Silencing a Pala will only leave him with Crusader Strike and Divine Storm, because every other ability Palas have is considered a "spell". Almost all DK abilities, except the "X Strike" ones and Obliterate, are also considered spells. Some Warrior abilities, such as shouts, Thunder Clap and some other, are also counted as "spells".

belf>undead for horde in 3.5.5a
though you must know that aoe silence will dr with garrote and vice versa
has no gcd and restores some energy.

[taralej]

Oh, yes. This is also very important - Arcane Torrent's silence shares DR with Garrote's silence and all other silences. Keep in mind when teaming with an SP or Mage.

Ok thank you very much guys. I pick BE !

Well, while we are at it, can anyone tell me which is the best race for rogue PvE - Horde side.
Blood elf - Restore Energy
Orc - Attack Power
Troll - Haste.
Thank you and sorry for not creating another post. I think that it's not that necessary to create another one while we are already discussing about races.

[kawad]

I'd say Troll for their racial which up your attack speed because for PvE the best spec is combat.

But i'm probably wrong.

[lormane]

Orc and Blood elves aren't bad too.
They both provide attack power and energy respectively.
So i'm kinda confused.

[taralej]

The attack power from the orc racial doesn't scale with anything but level, so at BiS gear it is quite insignificant. This same BiS gear will also make the racial expertise insignificant, because you'll already be capped. The energy from the BElf racial is very very minor and is not worth at all when it comes to PvE. With a flat 20% attack speed increase, trolls are the clear winner here no matter if you play Combat or Assa.
