After looking at all the class changes for Shadowlands it’s obvious rogue and especially subtlety needs more un-pruning and changes, please let me explain why…
Most Abilities still missing from Subtlety’s past for context:
-
Gouge
-
Garrote
-
Premeditation
-
Preparation
-
Dismantle
-
Hemorrhage
-
Ambush
-
Shroud of Concealment
-
Recuperate
-
Shadow Walk
-
Expose Armor
-
Combat Readiness(talent)
-
Tricks of the Trade(the one with damage buff so its not useless in pvp)
The only “new” abilities we got back were SnD / and Shiv + poisons and poisons might as well be passives anyways… Also adding Slice and Dice without unpruning premeditation makes no sense, PvP was not taken into consideration with any of these changes. Lastly the pickpocket thing sounds cool for PvE players but totally useless or at least not practical even if it worked in pvp.
To put this in perspective… Warriors for example got 11 spells readded to all their specs, it’s obvious rogues got very shafted in this un-pruning compared to most classes. Not even saying that I want all of the missing abilities I listed back to my spec but please at the very least give us back gouge, garrote, premed so we can continue the reason lots of sub players decided to play sub in the first place… CONTROL
