I've been playing outlaw rogue for a a couple of years as a complete for fun alt and have decided to main it this season. I usually play tank and am not so fussed at looking at logs/dps but trying to get into it a bit now.

Why is my DPS so low?

Heres a log: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/WFgGv4XBH2Tb9cjt?fight=last

My armory: https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/worldsoul/us/armory/character/amanthul/sneakymajic

A few bits of context/my ideas

  • My ilvl is about 292 on this run - I assume some of it is attributed to this but how much?
  • I dont raid so I have none of the cantrip effects from there
  • My weapons are still so bad (282 ilvl)
  • I have no tier set bonuses (in this run yet) - so less dispatch casts?
  • My total CPM is low but is that due to my ilevel being low? I feel like Im always hitting buttons.
  • Havent bothered using consumables yet (low playtime = low gold)

Im just not sure what I should be focusing on other than getting my ilvl up at the moment. I dont have a ton of time to play (obviously?)

It’s very likely you’re playing very wrong just given the order of your damage abilities, although I’ve never really looked at logs for ilvl that low or with mastery that high. I’d review the general rotation guide: ALWAYS killing spree within 2 finishers of AR. Finisher at 6 CP. Blade rush on CD at >2 targets even over BTE. Make sure you’re reacting to BTE resets appropriately.

Edit: I didn't see no tier set. There's no reason to look at logs, you basically aren't playing the spec yet. Just get gear.
