In one of the podcasts Blizzard stated they would add unique abilities for Rogue capstone talents? It seems to me they have completely forgotten about rogues.
I’m genuinely worried Rogue population will be significantly lower than any other version of the game.
EDIT: I plan on playing Zugzug Warrior, I just feel bad for rogue boys
Not gonna lie you wont find many sympathizers unless they play rogue.
Too many of us are salty from getting ganked on pvp servers.
It’s fine, they will do the hiGhEst sInGLe TaRgeT dAmAge!
What’s a rogue?

Nobody can find the rogues is the problem.
dagger sub rogue actually got buffed with current changes but nerfed in other ways. Basically we got coldblood as an option because its a 4th row talent now, backstab has a chance of adding a second cp, cheapshot always gives us 3 cp, we get 9% armor pen and dont need to sacrifice anything for heightened senses. Backstab and ambush however lose something like 15-20% damage because lethality and opportunity was nerfed hard and the base damage of backstab and ambush was nerfed. Lastly our energy was nerfed very hard so our initial burst and utility early on in a 1v1 is much lower without thistletea. If they give us back old energy regeneration, and at least buff lethality back to what it was, I would have a lot less complaints. PvP wise, these two buffs alone would probably make most rogues happy enough to not complain with the class. Also just please give subtlety a passive for the 31 point talent letting us use 2handed swords and turning ghostly strike into a 10 yard shadow strike. This opens a whole new way to play sub rogue and would be much more fun than just 1handed sword hemo spam
Polearms for backstabs
Don’t forget that combo points were supposed to transfer between targets too.
If you’re a Horde Rogue it’s even worse because 4 out of 5 Alliance races have anti-rogue racials, with Humans having a new radically anti-rogue tool.
Rogue isn’t a class, its a nuisance.
