<3 Tier 10 bonus. Well I used to love the T9 bonus befoire it became redundant ;_; I have to say it's a lot easier (boring) to play the rogue now i have to rupture to worry about :/

/agree Zaltu We were kind of spoilt with T8 bonuses plus the amount of red gem slots too (if I recall correctly). .-= Recked´s last blog ..Rogue News: Preparation Nerf in Patch 3.3?! =-.

It’s actually a gain of 30 energy, since you now gain 15 energy, instead of losing it.

Yes, EJ did run the numbers and as far as I can recalled, they were rated as much higher than “fair”

Now T9, that was a shafting but only because T8 was so good.

I’d advise you to run the numbers on these set bonuses before you praise them so high. They are actually not that good.

15energy is not all that significant. That is a combo move every 1.5 minutes == very underwhelming.

elitist jrks ran the numbers already, they are “fair”. Nothing more. Compared to some of the other tier pieces, we are shafted again.

I actually found that by equiping all item level 245 gear with the 4 piece it is a dps increase on the T8.5 armor set. Granted, it’s not as big an upgrade as T7.5 to T8.5 but still an upgrade.
To be honest I’m not sure how hard Icecrown is going to be so I have been gearing everything up and am only one piece of T9 245 of having all ToC gear (with all non-heroic best in slot gear bar boots and trinket which I’m hoping will drop soon).
My guild has cleared 10-man ToC Heroic but we have been struggling a little with 25-man Heroic. I figure my job as a Rogue is to maximise my DPS in order to help the guild get through the 25-man Heroic so even though T9 245 isn’t as great a jump as T8.5 was it’s still an increase.

It looks like they switched the 2p and 4p bonuses

I would like to hear more about this rupture-less cycle since you mentioned to nerf to armor pen.

The armor looks retarded….

Agreed. T9 is not so good and T10 bonuses look great. I have been upgrading everything else except the 4-pieces of T8 in combination with the Duskstalker Shoulderpads and even with the T9 2-piece it isn’t even close in dps to the T8 numbers. Looking forward to T10 already… oh, and the bonuses *do* make up for how dumb the helm looks.

I am loving the bonuses compared to the crappy T9 ones. I’ll be interested to see the stats. So you think it’s likely we’ll see the Rogue evolve away from the Rupture, SnD and HfB rotation as a result of T10? What sort of cycle do you think we’ll be using?

Btw pictures of the armor from MMO-Champion are available:

What do you think?
