Rogue and Warlock changes in WoW Forever

Assassination

• Improved Gouge. Moves from Combat to row 1.
• Remorseless Attacks. Now also affects Mutilate.
• Malice. Raises the critical strike chance of all attacks and Poisons, not only melee.
• Murder. Now applies to Giants instead of Beasts and Dragonkin.
• Improved Expose Armor. Redesigned: it no longer boosts Expose Armor. It lowers its Energy cost, and Expose Armor refunds Combo Points when used with 5.
• Lethality. Also applies to Mutilate, with a slightly smaller critical damage bonus.
• Cold Blood. Moves from the 21 point to the 16 point gold medal slot and also applies to Mutilate.
• Improved Poisons. Gives a large chance that a triggered Poison does not use up a charge.
• Vigor. Now a 2 point talent in row 5 instead of the 31 point gold medal talent, with the same total effect.
• Mutilate. New 21 point gold medal talent. A 60 Energy Combo ability that strikes with both hands, and both must hold daggers. It hits harder against Poisoned targets, gives 2 Combo Points, and each hand can trigger procs.
• Improved Kidney Shot. Its damage bonus only applies to your own attacks and Poisons.
• Seal Fate. No longer needs Cold Blood. Mutilate triggers it once if either or both hands critically strike.
• Venom. New 31 point gold medal talent. A 25 Energy finisher that raises Poison damage by 30% and Poison application chance by 10%, lasting longer with more Combo Points spent.

Combat

• Improved Eviscerate. Moves from Assassination to row 1 with a bigger damage bonus.
• Puncturing Wounds. Was Improved Backstab. A smaller Mutilate critical bonus, and Backstab can give an extra Combo Point.

• Precision. Raises hit chance for all spells and attacks, Poisons included.
• Endurance. Shortens the Sprint and Evasion cooldowns by a percentage.
• Flawless Execution. New 16 point gold medal talent: Eviscerate costs 10 less Energy.
• Dual Wield Specialization. A smaller off-hand damage bonus.
• Hack and Slash. New in row 5, replacing the Dagger, Mace, Sword and Fist Weapon specializations. Axes get a bonus matching swords (a chance for an extra attack), and the mace bonus now ignores some armor instead of a chance to stun.

• Aggression. Also raises Backstab damage.

Removed: Dagger Specialization, Mace Specialization, Sword Specialization and Fist Weapon Specialization.

Subtlety

• Camouflage. Moves from row 2 to row 1.
• Master of Deception. Costs 3 points instead of 5 for the same effect, with a clearer tooltip.
• Opportunity. Also affects Mutilate.
• Setup. A higher chance, so 3 points guarantee it triggers.
• Dirty Tricks. Was Improved Sap, moved from row 4 to row 2. Since Sap no longer breaks Stealth, the talent now greatly lowers the Energy cost of Sap and Blind.
• Improved Ambush. Moves from row 3 to row 2.
• Initiative. Triggers every time with 3 points.
• Ghostly Strike. The damage bonus applies while a dagger is equipped, not any weapon.

• Premeditation. Moves from the 31 point to the 16 point gold medal slot and lasts 20 seconds.
• Serrated Blades. Ignores a percentage of target armor instead of a flat amount, scaling by level.

• Hemorrhage. The damage bonus applies with a dagger equipped, and it also raises Rupture damage on the target for 15 seconds.
• Quietus. New in row 6, needs Dirty Deeds. Sinister Strike, Ghostly Strike and Hemorrhage hit harder against targets under 35% health.
• Cutthroat. New in row 6. Backstab can make your next Ambush work without Stealth.
• Thousand Cuts. New 31 point gold medal talent. Each Rupture tick lowers the Energy cost of your next Hemorrhage or Backstab by 3, up to 5 times.

• Unholy Power. Moves from row 4 to row 1 with a smaller pet damage bonus.

• Decimation. New in row 4. Soul Fire's cooldown is cut by up to 90%. Shadow Bolt or Searing Pain on an enemy under 35% health makes them take more damage, and your next Soul Fire within 10 seconds casts up to 40% faster and uses no Soul Shard.
• Demonic Brand. New in row 4. Searing Pain makes less threat and brands the target, so your pet's next 2 attacks deal Fire or Shadow damage depending on the pet. Shadow damage makes high threat.
• Soul Link. Moves from row 7 to row 5 and becomes the 21 point gold medal talent, down from 31.
• Improved Felhunter. New in row 5: Tainted Blood, Devour Magic healing and Paranoia detection are 10% stronger, and Spell Lock's cooldown is 2 seconds shorter.

• Master Demonologist. Redesigned. Imp raises Fire damage, Voidwalker lowers Physical damage taken, Succubus and Incubus raise Shadow damage, Felhunter lowers Magic damage taken.
• Demonic Pact. New 31 point gold medal talent, needs Soul Link. Summoning a different pet no longer cancels Demonic Sacrifice (resummoning the sacrificed pet still does), so Demonology can use Demonic Sacrifice and Master Demonologist together for the first time.
