Orc RogueFollow

Before you make any remarks regarding reading .... I did a lot of reading in trying to find the right setup for my Orc Rogue.

I come up with some questions though;

The way I read and see it is like this ...
If you wanna do PvP go for assassination
If you wanna do PvE go for combat.

As being an Orc I have a little advantage towards strength regarding other races therefore putting as many points into combat wonders me if that is a wise choice. Should I not put some points in the Subtlety tree for being a big dumb dude? Master of deception seems like a wise choice as well as Improved ambush .... so that backstabbing (ambushing) does max damage.

After the backstab I will go to normal combat which means I put the rest of my points into that tree.

Obviously you all are probably gonna say go what you feel like playing. All to true but I like to get the most out of this game as possible which means I will eventually do some dueling, raiding, etc. A Combined tree of all tree's will not max out my potentials.

So one question is, is Mutilate / Suprise attacks a must have?
Does that give you the edge in winning crucial battles?

And then there is the thing of poisoning. Rogues can make poison ... ok .. so do I need to spend some points there just to max its potential?

How good is poisoning in battle?

Somewhere I also read that doing ambush and finish it with ghostly strike often does the trick ... so best conclusion is I am really confused in what tree to follow.

So plz rate these setups as being an Orc Rogue! Thank You in advance.

Do you by chance play on a RP server?!

The fact that you're an orc has nothing to do with most of these builds.

Orcs are just able to, under the influence of their racial, hit absurdly hard and have a base stun resist.

With the rogue, putting all your talents into one tree makes you suck. Going 51 assassination, combat or subtetly just isn't practical.

Pretty much as it stands, there are ~15 points in assassination and ~15 or so points in subtlety that can't be missed. Look at all the other builds out there to see what synergizes well: originality in WoW is usually a bad thing.
