Rupture is only worth using on tank and spank fights, so if you were to pick one build to last a whole ICC run, you would choose an Evis build.

Just wanting to try this out.
Right now I don't have any daggers worth a crap.
A couple of Krick's Beetle Stabbers and a letter opener are these ok to start?
couple of ice razors a good thing to get first?

Sorry, but no, it will not. My question is not "will my DPS be higher or lower", my question was specifically about the normalization. And spreadsheet will not say "dear sir please change your weapon because this one is normalized at a terrible speed". I don't want to just see a number change (DPS) and think "ok whatever my DPS is better so that's that", I want to understand why. :) But I mentioned that already.Yes, it will.
If you have an iLvl 264 1.4 OH and you swap it with a 264 1.8 OH and your DPS plummets, you now know that Deadly isn't normalized. Ta-da!
So basically the only people who deserve to know this are the spreadsheet authors?
Right now, I've used Rawr 2.x (waiting for 3 to come out of beta) and looked at two different combat spreadsheets, and they all give me conflicting advice. If the only answer you'll get when learning how to optimize your rogue DPS is "spreadsheet", then please also answer "fine, but which one".

Need a little lesson here; maybe it will help me understand my class better.
Here is my armory
Using the latest spreadsheet and entered everything in. It comes back with a recommendation of Low Rupture. Fine, I understand what that is. What I want to know, though, is *why* it recommends that. I don't have any points in Blood Spatter and I don't have the T9 bonus.
Again, I am not arguing with the spreadsheet, I am just curious why it came up with this recommendation.
Edit: This new CAPTCHA is completely retarded (as if any of them aren't). I might have to pay just for the piece of mind!

Nowhere in any of the stickies or posts is RAWR ever suggested for optimizing rogue dps. There is a reason for that.
And since we're on the rogue boards, the reason is nobody's business but yours. That's okay, I read the guide, unlike the responses here it's been quite useful.

Rupture > eviscerate, because rupture can now always crit scalling with your special attack crit chance.
Rupture is even worth using in tank&spank fights without having the talents/glyphs for it.

Rawr sucks for rogues.
Seriously.

2s2c2e is not possible.
Every letter is the first letter of a finisher.
This means:
S = Slice and dice
R = Rupture
E = Eviscerate
Aka there is no "C".
The numbers stand for the amount of combo points.
1 -> 5
It does not mean the amount of sinister strikes, because with the glyph, ruthlessness and perhaps 4pc tier10 your amount cps gained is changed every time.
2s5r2e:
2 CP Slice and dice -> 5 CP Rupture -> 2 CP Eviscerate

.I chose CQC just as an example. This post in no way attempts to define CQC as a better specialization over HnS or Mace Spec
I used the 20/51/0 spec in accordance with what was linked which means i have 5 points in cqc should i switch that out for HnS or Mace spec? If so which ones better?
Whichever is more suitable for your current weapons.
