as for now, AP > agi due to heavy poison scaling, especially for mutilate spec, since they are based much on poison damage (also combat w/ envenom).
anyway when you're going to be full ulduar geared, and especially you have 4pc t8, agility becomes better for the additional chance to crit.

once you have your 4 piece tier 8 agi beats AP
if you are still in your T7 gear (which you should be till you hit 4piece T8) then you want to stack AP. Assuming you are exp/hit capped for your spec.

What EJ are u looking at according the one im looking at AP=1/agi=1.97 for muti spec...hence AP pulls ahead slightly.
Correct, however EP values shift for agility when you get 4-piece t8, so it pulls ahead of AP.

ok...agi = ap ?
agi best per combat and ap for mutilare...this is my think
cya
Just wondering if this is something agreed upon amongst level 80 rogues - I've not been level 80 for very long myself, but I should think AP is better for combat, or did I miss anything?

Even with the new ArPen cap, gemming for ArPen is still slightly higher DPS than gemming for agility. Although, you do lose some amount of dodge, so it's debatable.
Edit: That's with BiS gear of couse.
Thank you for the advice, but it's not quite what I meant - I was on about Attack Power versus Agility. I just don't understand why you should gem Delicate over Bright when 2 AP is valued at approximately 2.2 AEP (or is this where I'm mistaken?). Especially as a combat rogue that doesn't actually "rely" on critical strikes. Did I miss something?
Anyway, I'm not looking to prove anyone wrong, rather clarification.

I think he misquoted.
Either way, Gem AP until 4PC T8, once you get that, regem agility. (Generally what people do.)
Although it doesn't really matter if you gem Agility or AP before that, you can spreadsheet it to see which is better.
I feel kind of dumb as I realised all that just after posting. I guess the guy I initially quoted got me all confused because he didn't mention the T8 4pc.
Thanks anyhow!
