Outlaw Rogue PvP Stat Priority, Gear, and Trinkets — 12.0.5
Choosing your gear carefully is important for your Outlaw Rogue in PvP. We give you a stat priority to help you choose items with the right stats, followed by advice on how to choose your gear and your trinkets.
This page is part of our Outlaw Rogue PvP Guide.
Stat Priority for Outlaw Rogue in PvP
The stat priority for Outlaw Rogue in PvP is as follows:
- Agility
- Versatility
- Haste
- Critical Strike
- Mastery
Agility is the best stat in all situations. Versatility is the strongest
secondary stat because it increases your damage and reduces the damage you take.
Haste is the second most important stat because
Adrenaline Rush reduces
your global cooldown from 1s down to 0.8s based on your Haste.
Reaching 0.8s value is to achieve 25% Haste.
Critical Strike is the third best stat because, as Outlaw, your main
ability,
Between the Eyes, deals bonus critical damage and increases
your Critical Strike chance with all abilities.

to your primary target is increased by an additional 15%. - 4-set:

it increases your damage dealt by 5% for 8 seconds.
In general, it is recommended to get both 2-set, but you should not get 4-set for Outlaw Rogues
