Rogue PvP Secrets – The Basics of Rogue Strategy

WoW Guide Reviewer — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:09:23 +0000

As you’re probably aware, Rogues are the most hated of all PvP classes. That’s because they can take down most any foe, leaving them staggering around like a fool and unable to defend themselves, regardless of that foe’s class. Still, no class is invulnerable, and understanding your Rogue’s many strengths and few weaknesses will surely make you even more annoying to your player versus player foes. First we’ll talk about your strengths.

Rogue PvP Strengths

I’ll say it right out. Rogues are perhaps the most effective and most feared of all PvP classes. Choosing your greatest strength is hard because you have so many of them. If you can learn to execute them properly, your Stunlocks are brutal. A well-executed stunlock can leave your opponent immobilized or staggering around in a daze, and make them easy pickings for you and your teammates. Learn to do this right, and if you have a good Rogue PvP build, few will be able to stand up to you.

Many would say that your poisoning skills are your greatest strength. Even when your enemies run away, you’ve got options. Use your Crippling Poison to slow them down, and your Mind Numbing Poison to mess up their spell casting. Combine these with the rest of a Rogue’s abilities and you’ll drive your enemies to distraction as you terminate them.

Rogue PvP Weaknesses

One big weakness of being a Rogue in large battles is that other players don’t like you very much. Any player who has seen their character stunlocked into immobility while being pounded to death, or poisoned into stumbling incompetence has a score to settle with Rogues. This can make you a target, as most players will happily help when it comes to taking out an enemy Rogue.

Beyond the fact that everyone hates you, your character’s biggest weakness is the complexity of executing a stunlock. Mess this up, perhaps because a Hunter’s pet is chewing on you, or a Shaman gets an Earthshield up, and you’ll be vulnerable to attack. Beyond that, remember that you have only melee attacks, so if a ranged fighter manages to keep you at a distance, they can tear you up with impunity.

These are just the basics of Rogue strategy, strengths, and weaknesses in PvP. Most decent players can do well in PvP with just basic Rogue strategy. But to really dominate you need more than that. You’ll need to have an excellent Rogue PvP build, and a great Rogue strategy. A Rogue PvP guide will give you far more information on every aspect of playing a Rogue, including specific advice on talent builds, gear selection, and taking out any class of opponent.

Really understanding your Rogue PvP strengths and weaknesses is a great way to improve your performance. To learn more about this and other PvP techniques in a guide that has helped others generate a 2214 Arena Rating in weeks, just Click Here.

Secrets of Warcraft PvP – Warrior Basics

WoW Guide Reviewer — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 18:13:07 +0000

Many people play their Warriors as armored brutes who mindlessly charge into battle, hoping to get close enough to the enemy to slash, bash, or otherwise mangle their opponents. But if you really want to be successful in PvP with this character class, there’s much more you need to know. The best Warriors know that the first secret to dominating with this character class is understanding your character’s own PvP strengths and weaknesses so you can determine your strategy against your opponents.

Warrior Strengths in PvP Combat

Your character has an incredible amount of stamina, enabling them to keep fighting long after lesser classes would be dead. And once they get close, your Warrior can repeatedly deliver massive bursts of damage to take your opponent down in seconds.

But your character has another, more subtle, advantage. Your Warrior has the ability to do basic crowd control with skills like Demoralizing Shout and Piercing Howl. These are part of a repertoire of skills that helps your keep your foes within arms reach long enough for your Warrior to destroy them.

Warrior Weaknesses in PvP Combat

While few characters can stand up to your Warrior in hand-to-hand combat, several classes can tear you apart without letting you get close enough to harm them. Your Warrior is relatively slow and doesn’t have any real counter to ranged fighters like Hunters or Mages. The need to learn how to get within weapons range of such foes is one of the biggest weaknesses of your character and a true secret to PvP success.

At the most basic level, those are the PvP Strengths and Weaknesses of your Warrior. To learn more, including how to deal with all those wimps that pick you to death while staying just out of sword’s reach, you’ll want to consult with a quality PvP guide.
