Subtlety Rogue DPS Stat Priority — The War Within (11.0.7)

The general single-target stat priority for a Subtlety Rogue is:

1. Mastery;
2. Versatility;
3. Critical Strike;
4. Haste.

On single-target, all of the stats except for Haste are very close to each other for Subtlety Rogues, and thus, you should always simulate your own character to see your stat weights.

The general multi-target stat priority for a Subtlety Rogue is:

1. Mastery;
2. Versatility;
3. Critical Strike;
4. Haste.

On multi-target, Mastery gains major value due to the increased amount of finishers that we are able to put out, while Haste loses value because of the accelerated resource gain in multi-target situations.

These stat priorities are obtained by using a SimulationCraft gear setup that has equal stats and no trinkets enabled. To get accurate stat weights for your own character, you should simulate yourself using Raidbots.

Keep in mind that the more you have of a stat, the less valuable it becomes.

Gems, enchants, and consumables are directly linked to your stat priority. You can find more information about this topic in our dedicated page.

Agility is your primary statistic. You should look for it in all of your upgrades. It provides you with Attack Power, which determines the damage your abilities do.

Mastery increases the damage of your finishers through Mastery: Executioner.

Critical Strike increases your chance to critically hit with all spells and abilities. Crits deal double damage by default, but several effects can increase your crit damage, and make crits even stronger.

Versatility is a flat-out damage done increase and damage taken reduction.

Haste increases your Energy regeneration, Rupture tick rate and attack speed. Increased attack speed generates extra Combo Points via Shadow Techniques.
