Rogue PvP Overview
Rogue is the master of unfair tricks and has a seemingly endless bag of them to completely dominate in PvP. Abilities like Kidney Shot and Garrote allow them to easily control nearly any enemy.
Your specialization options as Rogue are relatively limited as Subtlety just does everything every other Rogue specialization does in PvP just a bit better.
Check out our Subtlety Rogue PvP guides to get a better understanding of how to gear and play your Rogue in PvP. Inside of these guides we have included a number of ways to improve your game play as well as a list of what is considered to be the best-in-slot set for PvP.
Rogue Arena Compositions
If you are unsure what classes pair best with your Rogue check out our guides listed below breaking down the strongest compositions for each arena bracket.
Macros and Addons
Macros and Addons can give you an edge in PvP as a lot of PvP engagements come down to two things, ability to react correctly and who has the most information. Macros allow you to complete actions much quicker than you would likely otherwise be able to by inputting multiple inputs at the same time and Addons allow you access to much more information than you would otherwise have, make sure to check out our Rogue-specific Addons and Macros guides; listed below to help optimize your game play experience.
