Doubt abot going for 7,5 exp cap or not?

[Asesino 0]

Hello.

I have been playing rogue on and of before mist, but this content i wanted to make it my main.

It's going pretty well so far, but i have a question about the Expertise cap,

As i can see on your guides, you tell me to go for the 7,5 % cap point.

But you also mention Shadowcraft, which i also can refered by a fellow rogue.

If i do reforge and gems after Shadowcraft, i gives me a Expertise % of around 4-5 %.

It actually reforges all expertise to mastery etc.

Is this just different opinions or what is the deal with this? :)

**I read a post from 2012, where you stated that Exp wasn't important as Assassination, case of their poison.

Hope someone out there can help me with this question :)

The thing with Assassination is that all stats are really close (except for Hit until the cap). So, if you reforge all wrong you may only notice a very small DPS difference (of about 5%). The difference between reforging Expertise to Mastery Rating and not doing it is even smaller (like 1%), and it's only the case at low gear levels.

As you get gear from Tier 15 and then Heroic gear from Tier 15, you will notice that Expertise is starting to pull ahead of other statistics, and Mastery Rating is pulling slightly ahead Haste Rating and Critical Strike Rating.

So, that's the reasoning behind our current stat priority for Assassination.
