You can use any of the following suggestions for mining routes or make up your own, as copper is so abundant: Horde: Tauren: Mulgore. The natural geography of this place makes it easy to run around. Just pick a starting point and follow the cliffs all the way around in a circle. Remember to check out the Venture Co mine on your way round. Average amount of copper ore from this run, should be about 40-50.

Weaknesses More susceptible to damage than Paladins/Warriors because Rogues can only wear cloth or leather armor

Present: World of Warcraft Client Patch 2.1.0 (05/22/2007) The latest patch notes can always be found at http://worldofwarcraft.com/patchnotes/ The patch notes highlights from a rogue perspective: Past:(in progress) During Beta we were unstoppable, then we were slowly nerfed over the course of a year. Then BGs came out and we quickly discovered that once out of stealth we were easily the fastest class to die to focus fire and our role was slipping behind the front lines to kill half health eaters/drinkers or drop a clothie. The nerfing stopped at our class review. Then Cloak of Shadows came out and suddenly we had a way to kill that priest or warlock and actually live afterwards by wiping dots. It also helped survivability in BGs and Raids. Which brings us to today...

-OFFHAND- Off-Hand, regardless of weapon choice, you will want the fastest weapon you can find but still with an acceptable DPS as it will excel mostly at using poisons for both PvE and PvP. In the Burning Crusade expansion it will be even more important to weild a fast off-hand as they will introduce an ability called "Shiv" which requires 40 energy but may require more energy if the weapon speed in that hand is slow. Your off-hand weapon will never do it's full DPS because it's damage is cut in half. (Even with talents its still reduced by 25%) Also, its important to know that your off-hand is not even considered in any of rogues special abilities. It basically just keeps swinging at a constant rate while fighting melee. The only special abilities that help an off-hand are ones that increase your attack rate, like Blade Flurry or Slice and Dice.

Gear: There are a ton of different looks out there for Rogues, from naked to full Bloodfang there is a large amount of gear out there to support every class, race and play style. Realistically though, the Look for end game Rogues is somewhere between Shadowcraft and Death Dealers. For these reasons, people general base their opinions on how a race appeals to them aesthetically off their appearance in one of these sets.
