Build Explanation: 

This should serve as the basic combat swords raid / instance build template. You can move some of the points around as you please, for example, you could easily remove some points for Prey on the Weak and put them into Vile Poisons if the mobs you typically fight aren't immune to them.

The entire build is structured for maximum energy regeneration and potential while giving you all the necessary PvE talents for high white damage like Dual Wield Specialization, Precision, Improved Slice and Dice, Sword Specialization, and more.

You will also get some utility with increased stamina from Endurance and decreased Evasion cooldowns (in case you have to main tank) and your kick will come with a silence with Improved Kick.

Look for this to be very competitive as the lead raiding DPS build.


kick.

You don't typically need improved kick. as it stops spellcasting in the same tree for 5 seconds. the two points could be better spent.

First Rogue Level 30 using this Combat build

This is the build I have been focusing on from the beginning. From the perspective of a mid-30s level player (I see too many 70-80 players talking end game), I am able to kill quickly mobs my level, tank or shuffle skills to allow me to take 3 mobs within 5 levels below and can kill mobs without dying 3-5 levels above (although this takes too long and requires bandaging and downtime). Point is - I am very happy at this point with this build.
