Do the glowing trinkets show me a way home, or simply a glowing path for some one else to follow?

Well, I only ran Kara once. I recommend high stam gear, because there's quite a bit of cleave/aoe damage coming our way. I have almost 8k unbuffed hp in my stam gear. As far as specs go, spec to your best weapon. As I recall, you're a dagger rogue, so feel free to experiment between mutilate/combat daggers. Combat daggers in general is better damage (especially on poison immune mobs such as Curator), but a well-played Mutilate spec that takes full advantage of timing and rotating finishers can out-do a combat daggers rogue who's just keeping SnD up spamming backstab (for sustained, single-target, poisonable mob dps, that is).
Really, play what's more fun to you. If you really want to crunch numbers, we can have a chat sometime.

We really need rogues to start signing up again, but then again we are missing shamans too

I'm trying to get back in game, but this gamecard issue might take a day or two (hopefully not much longer than that).

HAHAHA I cant keep up with ipit over there. Besides ill bring whatever toon i just probably wont sign up as fire because it's stressful and such but a rogue honestly is a little more laid back in my exprience.

Little more laid back until you pull aggro or forget to vanish.

pulling aggro only happens if your to stupid to use feint or you get a little reckless. Also pretty much all you can do there is vanish or burn evasion otherwise you die.

Or you don't do high DPS. One of the three.
My shaman pulls aggro like a Mofo. But my DPS is also Off the hook. I can catch up 6k threat in about 15 seconds on Fal. Thats when the tank also has bloodlust and windfury.

Current observations as a rogue.
1: Always pop berserker in pve when you have SnD up for the stacking effect of it causing a greater dps boost otherwise because of the 10 energy it can actauly hurt your dps.
2: Survivability>dmg For pvp, being able to live through about 4 or 5 diffrent moments where some one should kill you then stealthing off to bandage is priceless
3: I need better daggers
4: Agility Res and stam are invaluable for pvp
5: In PvE feint should be used only to stay underneath the tank while coming close within a safe buffer of three or so misses in order to maximize your dps to the tanks ability to build aggro
6: Rogues are in a way a part of tanking in the way that if a healer or another dps pull aggro you can often lock down the mob long enough for the tank to come and pick it up again, or if the tank suxs eventaully kill it (used to love stepping inbetween on fire to help the group from wiping in a quite way)
7: I need to level up my rogues lock picking
8: I need to get my ass a flying mount so i can go get attuned for karazahn and give them all my lovable rascal antics (They say they like me but thats what they said in nam.
9: When fighting a pally blind him then focus through the rest of his healing as a good one will bubble if you try and focus on him and you'll lose. (in a 2v2 arena)
10: Garrote is your friend
11: Expose armor is more valuable on priests and warlocks than warriors and paladins (used to think there was no point in using it at all)
12: Bleed effects work well on high amor targets
13: Rogues grind well and have much more bountiful rep rewards than shaman
14: I need to run lots of Bm
