Assassination Rogue Best in Slot — Classic, Phase 2 — Dire Maul

Melee DPS · Updated 2026-07-22 Draft — being verified

Icy Veins' own "Phase 2" table — a refined/current-patch version of the Molten Core & Onyxia's Lair list (adding PvP and world boss items). It does not correspond to a distinct "Dire Maul" list on the source; used here as the closest available approximation for our Phase 2 (Dire Maul) slot. No dedicated Dire Maul BiS table was found on Icy Veins for standard Classic Era. Best in Slot from the Icy Veins WoW Classic Era Rogue Dps gear guide. Rings/Trinkets: the source lists 2-4 ranked options in one row (you equip two) — split here into two named slots, top pick in slot 1; combined source text kept for both. Classic Era predates gem sockets entirely (introduced in Cataclysm) — no gems section applies.
