WoW SoD Rogue Tank Talents & Runes

Rogues Rogues receive runes in Season of Discovery that enable tanking in dungeons and raids. One of the biggest questions here is whether and how well rogues can tank groups of enemies in instances since rogue lacks AoE. That being said, here is a build aimed at the tank role in SoD:

Tank Rogue Raid Consumables

SoD Phase 2 Tank Rogue Pre-BiS List

The following Tank Rogue Rogue BiS List contains the best items you can get in phase 2 of Season of Discovery before entering the raid Gnomeregan at level 40.

The Phase 2 Pre-BiS List is work-in-progress. How many defensive stats are needed, depends on Gnomeregan itself and is unknown at the moment. In BFD in Phase 1, Stamina was way less important, than it was expected before release. That’s why our current BiS list for Phase 2 is optimized for DPS and threat, not mitigation.

Tank Rogue Stat Priority

As a Tank Rogue Rogue you want to prioritize gear with the following stats:

  • Hit Chance (up to 6% against enemies 2 levels above you like raid bosses in BFD)
  • Agility
  • Stamina
  • Strength
  • Attack Power

    • After having 6% hit chance when fighting against bosses in Blackfathom Deeps, Hit Chance loses its value and other stats become better. The priority of the stats changes depending on your gear, the content you do, and the gear of your raid members. If raid bosses hit hard and you are in a raid with not many well-geared players, Stamina will have more value. If the incoming damage is manageable for your healers, Stamina loses a lot of its value.
