The Legacy picks that speed up leveling do nothing at 60. Here is where a Rogue should put the points instead, for raids, for PvP and for making gold. Each plan spends the full per-character cap and is checked against the Legacy tree's ranks and prerequisites.
Last checked · The plans are ours; the effects are game data.
How the respec works
Legacy Points belong to your account. Resetting a character's Legacy talents frees the points that character spent, to spend again.
The reset is done at your own class trainer, not from the Legacy window.
Players report the first reset costs about 10 gold and that later resets cost more. Blizzard has not published the price list.
During the beta, resetting failed for characters with Talented until their class talents were reset first. If the trainer refuses, reset your talents and try again.
Raids and dungeons
Unconfirmed
Where to spend Rogue Legacy Points for raids and dungeons, most important first. A character can spend 16, and an account can earn 65 at launch. At 60 you respec once into the full list. Effects are quoted from the Live client 1.60.1.70707 data.
1.
Reinforcerank 5 · Resourcefulness
You take 40% less durability loss when you die.
Progression means wipes, and every wipe costs repair gold. This is the only node that makes dying cheaper.

2.
The Quick and the Deadrank 2 · Resourcefulness
Increases movement speed while dead by 10% and your helpful spells and abilities cost no resources for 2 min after being resurrected or until you enter combat.
After a wipe your heals and buffs cost nothing until the next pull, so the raid is back up without drinking.
2 points · 7/16
3.
Gourmandrank 3 · Resourcefulness
Increases the duration of beneficial effects from eating food by 100%.
Food buffs last twice as long at full rank: one meal covers far more of a raid night.

What to skip, and why
Talented, Well-Rested: Leveling only: at 60 you already have all 51 talent points and gain no experience.
Thrill of Adventure, Field Medicine: The client says both are ineffective in dungeons and raids.
For Great Honor: Honor only.
Variants
Your leveling picks do nothing at 60. Legacy Points belong to the account, so a reset at your class trainer frees them to spend again; players report the first reset costs about 10 gold and each one after costs more, so plan before you pay.
Your class has no long party buffs, so Permanence would do nothing; its points go to Reinforce, food and travel.
Legacy values are datamined from the game client and can change. Plan your own spread in the Legacy planner, see where points come from inLegacy Points, or read the Legacy system guide. The order above is our recommendation; the effects are game data.
