just a fast question to Maeil.
I have watched the world first Professor movie, and I'm really wondering what Combo Points addon you use.
It looks really awesome and I would like it aswell. :3

He was using two addons..

The number in the midle of the screen was Blink's Roguehelper, and the combo points are UIM:ComboPoints.

I have a quick question, Why should rogues go for 100% arp equal to 1360 passive + foodbuff, when we have Sunder thats 20% and Faerie Fire that is 5%, so wouldn't it be better to go for 75% and rest put in haste/ap/hit?

Because it doesn't quite work like that.

See this post for details on how arpen works with Sunder Armor and Faerie Fire.

Newb question but it's very important for me atm, is kick dodgeable/parry? Because I've saw some melee dps plate users, with 26 expertise and rogues assassination with 3 or 8 of expertise.

Kick should be dodgeable/parryable and even blockable. The reason plate useers have expertise cap and us rogues don't is purely a dps reason. Say Fury for example really wants to get expertise capped so they get more rage. Whereas we don't really need it because of the Envenom buff and the energy refund for missed/dodged/parried attacks.

You usually shouldn't go for any socket bonuses which aren't agility, and sometimes even those aren't worth it. You still need 1-2 for some meta gems. I for example have some mastery hit gems in my leggings because I need more blues than reds for my meta, and the smallest dps loss I can get away with is trading 40 agility to 40 mastery and 20 agi from the bonus.

In theory, prestor should be better overall, but in practice I think the key might be pretty much on par with the added benefit of burstier damage. I wrote more on that here.
