Single Target Rotation
Rogue's rotation comes from a priority system. Here I will display the priority that you should follow:
- Combo Point builders
1. Cast Ambush when you are in Stealth.
2. Cast Revealing Strike only to keep its debuff up.
3. Cast Sinister Strike.
- Finishing Moves
1. Apply and maintain Slice and Dice, with whatever amount of combo points you have dont clip buff though.
2. Use Rupture with 5 Combo Points
3. Use Eviscerate with 5 Combo Points.
*Ignoring Rupture from the rotation simplifies it, but it sacrifices about 1 or 2% of your DPS. (~900-1000 DPS)
Multi Target Rotation
Use blade flurry for 2 or more targets and keep on doing your single target rotation, but do it without Rupture as blade flurry wont be affected by it.
When you are encountering more than 7 targets your rotation changes:
- Combo Point builders
1. Fan of Knives
- Finishing Moves
1. Crimson Tempest
*Do this rotation while still auto-attacking a target.
