Hey my name is ForeverGuy or just Guy, I'm the current guide writer for Outlaw Rogue. I raid mythic on Mal'Ganis but a lot of my time is spent in the Rogue Discord helping people out with their rotation, and general theory crafting and just talking with regulars. I've worked on previous guides in the past and I've helped optimize Outlaw for Simulationcraft in both the gear, talents, and APL. Feel free to message me about any questions you have about rogue, I'm usually around for anything just find me in Ravenholdt, my discord is guy#4019. I stream progression whenever the raid comes out, so feel free to give me a follow on Twitch, or follow me on Twitter if you like the guides.

Rotation Changes for Outlaw Rogue in Patch 9.2How Does Tier Sets Affect Outlaw Rogue Rotation旋风扳机左右开弓手枪射击doesRotation Changes for Outlaw Rogue in Patch 9.2Outlaw Rogue Rotation for Shadowlands命运骨骰Pull

Make sure your poisons are up and not going to run off during the fight.

Be in 潜行.

Use 命运骨骰 about 1 second before the pull (or 2s, before 切割 with 死亡标记, in order to benefit from cooldown reduction with 无休锋刃).

Use 死亡标记 (if talented) with the pull timer and use it to apply 切割 with about 1s left on the timer.

Open with 伏击.

Pop 冲动.

Cooldowns

Use 狂热鞭笞 (Venthyr) on cooldown before a finisher.

Use 冲动 on cooldown. Keep in mind that global cooldown duration is reduced to 0.8 instead of 1 second (for most of your spec abilities) while it is active.

Maintain 命运骨骰 when your active buffs are about to run out. Thanks to 无休锋刃, it should always be ready by that time. You can reroll as early as possible if you only got a single buff that is not 强势连击 or 精准定位.

Use 剑刃乱舞 against multiple targets. The ability cooldown is reduced via 无休锋刃 so you can get close to 100% uptime in AoE situations.

Use 死亡标记 (if talented) at or below one combo point (you will usually have one due to 无情), or if the target is about to die. Try to snipe low health enemies to get as many cooldown resets as possible. Mouseover macros might help you with it.

Use 鬼魅攻击 (if talented) like a builder on cooldown. Its damage increase does not translate into 剑刃乱舞 so there is no need to worry about that.

Use 影舞步 (if talented) at low energy. If you can expect to benefit from 剑刃乱舞 in the next 20 seconds, then hold it for that.

Use 刀锋冲刺 (if talented) on cooldown. If you can expect to benefit from 剑刃乱舞 in the next 20 seconds, then hold it for that.

Use 恐惧之刃 (if talented) on cooldown before a combo point generator.

Use 消失 and 伏击 if you have room for the combo points and the 50 energy to 伏击 right away.

Racial cooldowns狂暴血性狂怒消失影遁TrinketsPotion冲动嗜血Finishers强势连击手枪射击快速拔枪可乘之机申斥回响

Use 正中眉心 on cooldown.

Maintain 切割 by refreshing it during pandemic (i.e. the last 30% of the new duration; the last 9 seconds are always safe).

Use 斩击.

Builders

Use 伏击 when available through 潜行 or 败血刃伤 (Night Fae).

Use 手枪射击 when you have 可乘之机 procs. Without the 快速拔枪 talent, it is worth playing for more efficient use by making sure that you're not going to overcap energy from a potential 作战潜能 proc (i.e. don't use it when energy is close to capping). If your energy is that high, only use it to exactly cap out on combo points.

Use 影袭.

Outlaw Rogue Abilities for ShadowlandsResources能量连击点数深邃诡计Stealth潜行幽灵视觉Poisons速效药膏致伤药膏: Lethal Poison. Does only a bit of initial damage but reduces the healing received by the target, making it a considerable option for PvP.减速药膏: Non-Lethal Poison. Provides the main source of our capability to slow targets.迟钝药膏: Non-Lethal Poison. Increases the time it takes for enemies to attack and cast spells.Builder Abilities

伏击: A strong and iconic Rogue attack. It requires stealth and generates 2 combo points.

手枪射击: A ranged generator with a slow effect. Becomes a more efficient generator with 可乘之机 procs.

影袭: A simple combo-point generating attack that deals moderate damage. It has a chance to strike an additional time, which grants an additional combo point and gives you 可乘之机.

Finisher Abilities

正中眉心: A ranged finisher with a cooldown that applies a debuff for a short burst window on the target.

斩击: Our main damaging finisher that hits one target with a powerful strike.

切割: This is a maintenance buff finisher. It increases your attack speed for melee auto-attacks and is something to keep up during combat by refreshing it regularly.

Offensive Cooldowns

冲动: A damage increasing cooldown with a fairly long cooldown duration. It speeds up the rotation by quite a bit.
As something that is not mentioned on the tooltip, Adrenaline Rush also reduces the global cooldown of your core rotational abilities to 800ms.

剑刃乱舞: This is a key cooldown of Outlaw and the spec's way to deal AoE damage. Using it will deal a bit of instant damage and then mirror part of your single target damage to up to 4 additional targets. With its cooldown being reduced by 无休锋刃, a near 100% uptime can be possible.

命运骨骰: An "iconic" Outlaw randomness factor. The buffs you can get are 强势连击, 埋藏的宝藏, 大乱斗, 残忍精准, 骷髅黑帆, and 精准定位. The probabilities are 79% for one, 20% for two, and 1% for five buffs. 手法娴熟 (conduit) removes from the one buff chance and adds to the two buff chance. With 灌铅骰子, one buff rolls are simply converted into two buffs and there is no increased chance for five.

Defensive Cooldowns

暗影斗篷: Provides a moment of immunity against magic effects, removing current debuffs in the process. This is maybe one of the strongest defensives in the game as it can be extremely good for soaking and surviving many combat mechanics. (Note that some raid abilities are set to ignore it though.)

猩红之瓶: Heals you for a part of your health over a short duration. Helpful to support your healers as well as surviving, assuming you can spare the energy.

闪避: This makes you effectively immune to many physical attacks and is thus a counterpart to 暗影斗篷. It also comes in very handy when you have to support your group by tanking for a short time. For Outlaw, successful dodges also cause you to deal some damage via 左右开弓.

佯攻: Reduces the damage received from Area of Effect abilities and should always be used when soaking boss abilities or when you are aware that there will be an AoE damage spike incoming. Keep in mind that it costs energy and causes a global cooldown though.

Passive Abilities

作战潜能: Outlaw rogues have increased energy regeneration and a chance to generate additional energy on off-hand attacks. This chance is normalized to one-handed weapons with speed 2.6, meaning if you equip a faster dagger in your off-hand the chance is around 52% so that your expected energy gain averages out.

无休锋刃: For every combo point spent, your finishers reduce the cooldown of several of your abilities and talents. This is part of what feeds your rotation, makes you quite sensitive to downtimes, and contributes to your cooldowns not being constant and easy to predict. Always keep this in mind when trying to judge how long a cooldown will last.

无情: When using finishers you have a 20% chance per combo point spent to restore a combo point. With the talent 深邃诡计 you can use 6 combo point finishers, in which case you get a guaranteed combo point and an additional 20% chance for a second one.

Utility Abilities

致盲: Disorient on a cooldown that can be used in combat. This period is reduced against players.

偷袭: This is the stun we use as a combo point generator and a useful opener in PvP.

侦测: Legacy spell that you can buy from 卡维兹·洛典. This does not do anything... promise. However, it has a nice animation (referred to as "swirlyball") and can be used to "waste" an ability for mechanics like 侵蚀灵魂. You also need it to get the 幸存者的钱袋, a special rogue item.

扰乱: Causes enemies to divert their attention to your targeted area for a moment, making them turn towards it. It is useful to stop patrolling groups or sneak around certain enemies. It also allows you to sneak around some enemies that can detect you in stealth.

凿击: Incapacitates the enemy for a shot period and can only be used from the front. Outlaw's special additional crowd control ability that generates a combo point as well.

抓钩: Allows you to grapple to a target location. This is Outlaw's alternative to the other specs' 暗影步.

脚踢: Interrupts the target's spell cast.

肾击: Our second stun that is a finisher and potentially longer than 偷袭.

开锁: Unlocks locked chests and doors. This includes items and can be used in the bottom field of the trading window to unlock chests the same way enchanting can be done.

搜索: Pick the target's pocket. This usually requires humanoid enemies and can give you a very small amount of money and, occasionally, junk items. In the zones of some expansions, there are special quests and rewards for pickpocketing.

闷棍: Requires stealth and only works on targets that are not in combat. The period is reduced against players. Very useful when you want to sneak around enemies. It has no cooldown and can be used very often as long as you do not enter combat. When you use it to disable an enemy for a pull, keep in mind that you will not be able to refresh this and your tank should prioritize sapped targets when breaking crowd control effects.

毒刃: Based on your active non-lethal poison, it applies a more powerful slow with 减速药膏, or a more powerful attack speed / cast slow with 迟钝药膏. It also dispels an enrage effect regardless of the active poison.

潜伏帷幕: This allows for some very convenient trash skips in dungeons. Your stealthed party members can mount up before you use it and, once active, should not use any abilities.

疾跑: Straight-forward movement speed increase that is on a 1-minute cooldown at Rank 2.

嫁祸诀窍: When used, it starts a 30s period and only your first hit during that period will start the actual redirect phase. The cooldown starts with that first attack. Very useful to help the tank with aggro generation, especially in Mythic+ dungeons with 无常.

消失: Allows you to enter 潜行 while in combat (and drops you out of combat on trash and in the open world).

Glyphs

眩晕雕文: Slightly changes the animation of enemies affected by 闷棍.

燃尽雕文: Causes 疾跑 to leave a smoke trail behind.

伪装雕文: When you use 搜索 on a humanoid target with pockets, you will copy its appearance.

闪光爆炸雕文: Changes the smoke effect of 扰乱 to a flash.

Nice guide, are there any UI add ons that you would recommend? With needing to make sure the correct Roll the Bones is up, I would rather have them display near my character rather than the top right.

评论来自 rtsiqueira

Sorry for the dumb question, the true is I'm new to the game.

About the pull: If I use Marked for Death I'm o longer able to go into Stealth. Am I missing something?

评论来自 Seradi

Detection's greatest use will forever be getting out of the slowing debuff and into the fast buff during Visions while mounted :D

"Between the Eyes: A stun that is a damage dealing finisher and potentially longer than Cheap Shot.

No, it's not.

So much for a 9.0.1 guide.

评论来自 Igni

Thank you for writing the guide. For people just learning the class, the rotations section might benefit from the checkbox feature that allows you select which talents you've chosen and which Covenant you've selected. I don't really remember the name of all my talents. By providing the checkboxes, I can fill that out at the beginning and then read all the rotation lines knowing they all apply to me. As it is, I go through the rotation trying to remember if I have that particular ability instead of focusing on the priority/order of abilities I know I have.

When I played rogue in BFA (uldir era only), the general idea with combo points and finishers was to use them if you were at 4 combo points because SS could overcap you. Is that no longer the case? (this assumes no deeper stratagem and broadside) I would imagine we'd at least want to do that when SkullnBones is active since it's a 65% chance to give 2 combo points?
