While a clear best in slot list is always available in WoW Classic, the itemscontained might be extremely hard or expensive to get. Depending on what contentyou intend on doing will change your gearing strategy.

This page focuses on PvE, but you can find more information on gearing a Roguefor PvP in our other guide below.

As WoW Classic's Season of Masteryconsists of Phases that are separate from the regular branch of Classic, we havecreated unique gear lists for its pre-raid and Phases. In addition, you mayfind it useful to look over our Fire Resistance Gear guide for your specialization,which is applicable for either version of Classic.

As stated by Blizzard,WoW Classic will have six phases, starting withMolten Core, Onyxia's Lair, andMaraudon,and ending with Naxxramas and the Scourge Invasion.

Naxxramas drops gear that is an upgrade for nearly every slot. There is potential forDagger Seal Fate Rogue.

This is the gear we recommend for Rogue in the Naxxramaspatch.

In order to get ready for raiding, it is recommended that you follow thisguide in order to learn which gear to gather for maximizing DPS before eversetting foot in raids, and probably also before getting your first epicloot.

Molten Core and Onyxia's Lair are the firstraids in WoW Classic, and will probably award you with your first pieces ofepic gear. While most of the gear found here is easily replaceable later,there are a few pieces, such as Striker's Mark and Bloodfang Hood, which will last you through Blackwing Lair.

You can find our recommended gear for PvPing as a Rogue in the linkbelow.
