Looking for some information regarding rogues in Arena PvP:

Which class would complement us in a 2v2 team? I was thinking a destruction spec'd warlock for maximum carnage, however I am open to suggestions.

Which spec should i focus on? My impression of Arena combat was "Kill everything as quickly as possible", so I was thinking shadowstep. I vaguely remember other posters on this forum mentioning that shadowstep shines in arena, just want to verify.

If shadowstep is the way to go, how would that talent tree look? Would the extra points be spent in Combat for parry ratio increase and dodge rating or in assassination for crit and damage increases?

If anyone would like to link their arena rogues so i could see the spec and enchants, that would be very helpful.

PS: I noticed that blizzard has conflicting information on their website as to the set bonuses for the Gladiator set. The Arena rewards page says the set bonus is +resiliance rating and reduced cooldown on gouge. In contrast, the Armor sets page says the gladiator set has added damage to Evis and Envenom, along with the chance-on-hit of a zero energy finishing move. I'm guessing the Arena rewards page is correct?

Here is what I was thinking for a shadowstep spec:

I am a little confused with that build. Why the points in Imp Sap? I know it will be a moot point after the next patch, but is sap really used in Arena?

Also, why no points in Dirty deeds or Imp Backstab? Where is all your damage coming from?

The range will be increesed that means basically that sap will become usefull more in Arenas. But i would hear some advice from other Players.

I'd go for that :P

Imp. Sap mainly for when its a 2:1 or whatever situation. Also at times it's nice to sap someone first before landing the opener, however in that case you shouldn't forget to regen energy first.

Hm.. what else is to say.. Backstab, Backstab, Backstab xD




OH btw: I'm just a noob, my rogue recently passed HALF of level 70 (which would be 35, hes 39 currently.), just stating my opinion.
