Beginner's Guide to Subtlety Rogue PvE Part1

Be sure to watch Part2 afterwards: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eanr0bYmH_8

Hi Everyone! I've played nothing but Subtlety during Cataclysm and put some effort into make a video on how to play the spec in dungeons and raids. If this peeks your interest then give it a look :)

Keep in mind that this video was made during Patch 4.0.6 and all of this information could become invalid in future patches.

This is not a video saying that Subtlety is the best dps spec for Rogues in a PvE environment. This is a guide and nothing more. I also don't talk about strategies per boss fight, multiple adds, or how to time the free combo points correctly so you don't waste any. This is for beginners.

Large props to my guild for being so awesome during the boss footage and to Persephone for making a guide on how to make WoW videos.

FAQ:

What Addons are you using?

Power Auras is the addon showing my timers, combo points, and warnings. ForteXorcist is the addon keeping track of my ability cooldowns (the bar below my character). The addon recording my group's damage done is called Skada. And the addon I use to show cleaner nameplates is called TinyPlates.

Hello! I'm the sub rogue who just grouped with your troll warrior tank Alkin in Halls of Origination! Yes I've watched these before and I remembered as soon I saw the opening. Good work.

[DanielGames604]

@pnwsnewton Cheers! When I was leveling my rogue I never saw subt rogues in cross server dungeon pugs EVER. After I released these videos and elitist jerks made a thread on it, I've seen three subt rogues in pugs :D

[buecmcla]

What are those addons you are using to track buffs and de-buffs on the right and left of your char and the one at the bottom which shows you a graphical display of CD's?

Would be much appreciated!

[DanielGames604]

@buecmcla ForteXorcist shows the cooldowns and Power Auras is tracking the buffs and debuffs. The setup is custom made and I'll post a link to it in my future Power Auras tutorial video (because there aren't enough out there apparently :P)

[mrscarywasp]

Hi there,

Can you tell me how to set up ForteXorcist or point me in the direction of where I can get that information please?

I have had a look but cannot figure it out properly (ie slice n dice, recuperate are not showing up on my cooldown bar)

[DanielGames604]

@mrscarywasp I'm not an expert on how to use ForteXorcist so I can't help you on that. I use power auras to keep track of buff and debuff timers.

[tmigone]

You are the Awesome-est guy in youtube! Moar Sub vids please!

[AshFordFocus]

@mrscarywasp curse.com download it.

Read installation and install. Then go to your char select screen, and select the 'add-ons' button in the lower left of the screen. Select what character the addons are for, and select which ones you want/try.
