2.41.

General Offensive Cooldown Usage

Outlaw Rogue has a few cooldowns to think about using optimally on the fights in Liberation of Undermine:

  • Outlaw doesn't really have cooldowns, due to how much cooldown reduction you get on each of your CDs.
  • Adrenaline Rush Icon Adrenaline Rush and Vanish Icon Vanish are your most important cooldown-based abilities, as they contribute in major ways to your overall DPS performance. Make sure to not waste these casts so you can get as much cooldown reduction on them as possible.

Make sure to use your cooldowns on cooldown as much as possible unless certain adds or DPS phases allow you to get more value out of them. This is typically something you will want to discuss with your Raidleader or the rest of the raid in static groups, while PUGs are more freeform than that. Simply keep an eye out on how you can best serve the raid.

Take special care to not use Adrenaline Rush Icon Adrenaline Rush right before a boss becomes unavailable or very difficult to attack for 10+ seconds, as it will cause issues with the amount of cooldown reduction you will gain, resulting in a much lower Adrenaline Rush Icon Adrenaline Rush uptime.

2.42.

General Defensive Cooldown Usage

If you want to mitigate damage during some of the harder hitting moment of any given encounter, just Feint Icon Feint. You can use Cloak of Shadows Icon Cloak of Shadows to remove a variety of debuffs, or simply use it when the entire raid takes massive chunks of damage or has a very strong DoT effect on all players, to alleviate some of the pressure on your healers.
