WoW Level 80 Talents

I use rss feeds from sites like wowinsider and mmochampion feeding into my igoogle homepage for stuff like this as i think everyone should really.

But good to bring it up for people that havent seen it yet. Lots of interesting additions etc to each class.
 
Uhhh, lol. Have you even looked at the new talents/changes? Daggers are the strongest rogue specs right now in beta.

Ambush/backstab daggers is looking very strong. It's pretty obvious Blizz are looking to make ambush/backstab viable again.

And mutilate has recently had a load of changes which also makes it a very strong spec and possibly the best right now. Nobody really knows exactly how they will perform at 80 in arena but it's pretty obvious these are the two best specs at the moment.
 
When everyone is rolling around with 800 resi like pigs in muck, i'd like to see how well your daggers are doing then. As an ex-dagger rogue, I really do hope it works out for you, daggers are the true, poetic weapon of choice for rogues. But I see lvl80 not being that different in terms of weapon viability.
 
Well right now, the main reason for mutliate being a less desireable spec is nothing to do with resilience, it's related to cooldowns and mobility.

As for subtlety ambush/backstab, the problem isn't really related to resilience either. The energy cost of backstab is very high and the cp generation is poor. That combined with the positional requirement just make it inferior to hemo in basically every way. Note that full subtlety dagger specs don't rely on crits for combo point generation.

If you look at the new talents this is being addressed. Energy cost has been reduced, damage has been increased, and also there's talents to give ambush daggers something special which other specs can't have or make use of as effectively. Currently with a hemo spec you can have pretty much everything you have with daggers and more.

Check out these future plans for Rogues as well, they're great. Also, energy now ticks every 1/10th of a second which is one of the best changes ever.

I'm loving pretty much all of the class changes they're doing. I'm not sure what to reroll as. I think WotLK is gonna be the best thing that ever happened to WoW.

I'm deliberately keeping in the dark about Death Knights though as I want to learn it all myself when it comes out. :)

Yeah they seem to have learned a few lessons. Seems like they're trying to give everyone a lot of viable choices to make in how they spec. Best of all, the devs are being open about what they're doing and why. Previously we've not really had any insight into the thought processes behind the design decisions they make, beyond speculation.
 
..Must..resist..temptation..to..come..back...

sod that, I'm definitely reactivating for 1 month to play the epic deathknight quest line.

That spec does not have lethality which is too much a damage boost to drop as well as the fact duel wield specialization is being moved to tier 1 combat, they haven't updated the calculators yet, lazy blizzard.
