Outlaw Rogue Mythic+ Guide

This Hero Tree is currently not recommended.

• Makes your Ambush and Sinister Strike hit your target with an Unseen Blade. 10sec duration, 20sec Cooldown.
  • Unseen Blade applies Fazed, making the target take 5% more damage from you and being unable to parry, which is pretty nice.
  • Unseen Blade also applies 1 stack of Escalating Blade as a buff on you.
    • At 4 stacks of Escalating Blade, your next Dispatch becomes Coup de Grace.
  • Coup de Grace hits your target as if your Dispatch had an extra 5 Combo Points.
    • This ability currently has a 1.2GCD lock and a lot of bugs.
    • I could start listing the bugs of this ability and the tree itself, but I'm afraid there will be a lot of new ones popping up by the time the guide is out.

The rest of the tree in general has some interesting talents, but current tuning, plus the GCD lock of Coup de Grace among other bugs makes Fatebound a better choice.

• Mirrors
  • This is a pretty nice defensive that adds some tankyness to your kit.
• Flawless Form
  • This is a synergistic talent in the tree that outside of being a flat % buff on your finishers, work with Nimble Flurry and Coup de Grace.
• So Tricky
  • This is a pretty nice quality of life talent, especially for Mythic+.
• Nimble Flurry
  • Flawless Form has pretty good uptime so a flat damage buff on your cleave is decent.
• Disorienting Strikes
  • Unfortunate that Killing Spree is the ability that triggers this for Outlaw, but a significant talent for the spec nonetheless.

19% Haste Requirement.

When to use this Spec

This spec performs better than the Hidden Opportunity alternative in M+ situations but has a much higher haste requirement at 19%~

Gameplay Altering Talents

Discover all talents that significantly alter your gameplay within the Spec and Class Talent trees. This section gives a concise overview of these talents and their applications but for a more detailed look check out the Rotation and Deep Dive sections below.

Spec Tree

• Keep it Rolling
  • This talent allows you to "save" your buffs by extending them by 30 seconds, and also making you unable to reroll them away with your next Roll the Bones.
• Crackshot
  • This is the talent that every spec is currently playing and is centered around, making your Between the Eyes have no cooldown when used from stealth, which is where the Subterfuge synergy comes in. Also, it auto casts Dispatch with your Between the Eyes.
• Underhanded Upper Hand
  • Used mostly to extend Adrenaline Rush uptime with Vanish.

Class Tree

• Without a Trace
  • With the removal of Shadow Dance, having double Vanish charges to extend your Subterfuge windows is a great advantage.
• Supercharger
  • The new talent replacing Echoing Reprimand. Adds a bit of flavor to Roll the Bones but doesn't significantly change when you roll. More on that in the Deep Dive section below.

Hero Talents

• Death's Arrival
  • This is one of the better mobility talents to have when you have to cover a large amount of space.
• Destiny Defined
  • We pick this talent since Outlaw doesn't like playing Cold Blood.

Opener

1. Unlike Hidden Opportunity, Keep it Rolling does not use Ambush at all.

Before Pull

1. Cast Stealth
2. Cast Roll the Bones

As always, Opportunity, Audacity procs, Broadside proc, can alter this rotation a bit. Refer to the priority list for your opener.

Priority List

1. Cast Roll the Bones if you have 2 buffs. More on that under Deep Dive.
2. Use Keep it Rolling at 3 or more buffs if Broadside or Ruthless Precision is one of them.
3. Cast Adrenaline Rush on cooldown with 2 or less Combo Points.
4. Cast Ghostly Strike on cooldown ideally before a finisher.
5. If Adrenaline Rush is active and Between the Eyes is on cooldown:
   • Cast Vanish with 6 or more Combo Points to use Between the Eyes right after.
6. Cast Between the Eyes as a finisher in Subterfuge windows with 5 Combo Points or more. More information on Between the Eyes usage under Deep Dive.
7. Cast Between the Eyes as a finisher outside of Subterfuge with Ruthless Precision or to keep your buff up.
8. Cast Dispatch at 6 or more Combo Points.
9. Cast Pistol Shot with Opportunity buff at 3 or less Combo Points or at 6 stacks of Opportunity.
   • Cast Pistol Shot with Opportunity buff at 1 or less Combo Point or at 6 stacks of Opportunity while Broadside is active.
10. Cast Sinister Strike at 5 or less Combo Points outside your Stealth windows.
