WoW SoD: All Rogue Runes in WoW Classic: Season of Discovery

Every class has its own new Runes to apply to their gear in this newest version of Classic. In this guide, I’ll go over all Rogue Runes in WoW Classic: SoD Phase 1.

WoW Classic: Season of Discovery All Rogue Runes List

Since there are only three equipment slots Runes can be equipped on, you can only have three Runes applied at a time. Rogue has some interesting new Runes for damage and, interesting enough, tanking. Check them out in the below list, there’s something for everyone among the available Rogue Runes in WoW Classic: SoD Phase 1.

• Just a Flesh Would (Chest): You take 20% reduced Physical damage while Blade Dance is active. Additionally, you have a 6% reduced chance to be critically hit by melee attacks, the threat generated by all your actions is massively increased, and your Feint ability is replaced with Tease, which Taunts the target to attack you.
  • Taunts the target to attack you, but has no effect if the target is already attacking you.
• Deadly Brew (Chest): Grants several improvements to your poisons:
  • When you inflict any other poison on a target, you also inflict Deadly Poison.
  • If your weapon does not have a poison applied, it has a chance to trigger Instant Poison as if Instant Poison were applied.

And that’s it for all Rogue Runes in WoW Classic: SoD Phase 1. I don’t play Rogue, but some of these sound absolutely terrible to play against in PvP. You know we’re about to see plenty of tanking Rogues, too.
