Combat Rogue Guides
DPS builds for WoW Forever. Try variations in the Rogue talent calculator.
Combat is one of the three Rogue talent trees, and guide authors play it as DPS. In Classic the Combat tree was the weapon-specialization tree, built around steady melee damage and more attacks. In the WoW Forever talent data its deepest talent is Adrenaline Rush, and 11 of its 17 talents are marked new or changed from Classic 1.12.
