This post is in response to a question I received from a fellow arena player. I’ve posted it here as a reference for future players who may encounter a similar question.
Rogue Arena Gem Question…
Recently ive wondered if its better to stack agility (8agi) gems or attack power (16ap) gems. I have seen some rogues with one or the other, and now im not sure which is more beneficial. If anyone knows or can recommend something,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], please do!

Zuggy’s Response:
Personally, I’m a fan of the attack power gems. Simply because stacking AP gives you a direct increase in damage on every hit. Greater AP = Greater damage.
Agility gives you aparmorcritdodge…and while some rogues find this school of thought appealing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it’s just not for me. I don’t really care about defensive stats and crit is simply a chance to do additional damage.
The only way you could really justify all agility gems would if you were a fully committed sub rogue. Otherwise, I still think you should stack AP gems instead.
S-Scythe’s Response:
I prefer AP simply because I play more than one spec for PVP. I play Shadowstep and Combat so AP serves use for both of these specs. Whereas Agility really only benefits the 15% bonus of a Shadowstep spec. So if you only utilize a shadowstep spec in pvp I’d definitely say go for it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but if you change up specs for different teams AP is your optimal choice.
Diggu’s Response:
This is a question that doesn’t have a straight-forward answer imo. I like Zug’s comment about the different specs. I personally enchanem for Agility (if it’s not a hit gem) for PvE. Assuming you’re Combat PvE spec, the Agi (according to Elitist Jerks spreadsheets and others) maximizes your dps.
For PvP most of what I have seen is AP gemming. I seem to remember a lot of our top PvP rogues on Manno used to gem Agi back beforuring S1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but now that everyone in Arena has 400+ resil,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they all have AP gems.
