  • WOTLK Classic: A Complete BIS Gear Guide For Combat Rogues In Phase 4

    Posted: Oct 13, 2023

    Welcome to BIS Gear Guide for Phase 4 of Combat Rogues in WOTLK Classic. The equipment in this guide is mainly obtained from Icecrown Citadel, Trial of the Crusader, Ulduar, Naxxramas, Obsidian Sanctum, and Eye of Eternity. This guide will list recommended gear for Combat Rogues.

    Emblems Of Frost

    Many players in mail users, plate users, and strength classes consider Agility and Leather items to be the best items in this phase of the slot.

    Typically, these classes have mail, plate, or strength items as replacements in these slots. These alternatives don’t technically match them, but are very close to performance. So when there is no other choice, using WOTLK Classic Gold to get this equipment is the wisest choice!

    Note: You can get 3% off right now with code “Lich”.

    When determining the distribution of loot in a guild, you need to consider what other options each player has, especially for highly competitive items. Because it’s unlikely that everyone who wants it will get it.

    Of these you should definitely prioritize equipping your level set with the Emblems of Frost helmet and shoulders. After that, none of the remaining items are BIS, so you can prioritize different things based on your weakest gear slot.

    While it may not be BIS, I recommend you to start with Shadowblade Breastplate and Shadowblade Gauntlets. Until your gear is closer to BIS and you can match it all with well-crafted Bladeborn Leggings.

    Phase 4 Combat Rogues BIS Gear

    Next, we will talk in detail about which BIS equipment you should choose for your Combat Rogues in Phase 4.

    Helmet

    Sanctified Shadowblade Helmet is definitely your best helmet choice, followed by Non-Heroic Sanctified Shadowblade Helmet.

    When you’re ready, you might find yourself with something nice, like Discarded Bag of Entrails. If you use this, make sure your Shadowblade set has at least 2 slots elsewhere to keep the super valuable 2 pieces of loot.

    Shoulders

    Similar to the helmet, your best choice for shoulders is the item level 277 Shadowblade set, Sanctified Shadowblade Pauldrons. This is also an excellent piece of equipment if you end up using Cultist’s Bloodsoaked Spaulders. Just make sure you still have Shadowblade’s 2 piece bonus in the other armor slots.

    Cloak

    Because of Combat Rogues’ new strong preference for Armor Penetration in Phase 4, Vereesa’s Dexterity and Sylvanas’ Cunning in Phase 3 are still the best choices in the cloak slot.

    The new Shadowvault Slayer’s Cloak’s raw stats may be a little higher, but Armor Penetration Cloak is still slightly better. A cloak like Shawl of Nerubian Silk is only good if it doesn’t let you exceed your Expertise cap.

    Usually Combat Rogues can only equip one or two items with Expertise because your Expertise limit is too low.

    Wrist

    Like most slots, if we can equip a high-level Armor Penetration item, we will. Toskk’s Maximized Wristguards fits this description perfectly, as it’s both the highest level of wrist we can get and has the exact stats we like as Combat Rogues.

    Glove

    Glove is a good slot for not using your class armor since there is no Armor Penetration for that class. But Aldriana’s Gloves of Secrecy have Armor Penetration as well.

    Waist

    Astrylian’s Sutured Cinch is a good wax option. Top item level, agility, and lots of slots to give this item more Armor Penetration. If you don’t have this waist after purchasing Level Armor with Emblems of Frost, you can choose Vengeful Noose as your second waist choice.

    Legs

    Gangrenous Leggings will be the best leg armor for Combat Rogues in Phase 4. Luckily, it comes from a relatively easy boss, Festergut, and there aren’t too many other classes that have it as the best slot. So getting it shouldn’t be too much trouble.

    Until you get that, though, Refined Bladeborn Leggings are also a powerful alternative. I recommend that any serious Combat Rogues should consider it.

    The above are most of BIS equipment that I think Combat Rogues should consider in WOTLK Classic Phase 4. Hopefully this guide will help you perfect your Combat Rogues’ gear and win the battle!
