Assassination Rogue DPS Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Shadowlands 9.0.2

This section specifically covers the optimal gems, enchants, food, and flasks to use for your character. To get a more detailed rundown of the different stats for Assassination Rogue, please visit our dedicated Stats page.

You should use Leviathan's Eye of Agility in one of your sockets and either Quick Jewel Cluster or Deadly Jewel Cluster in your other sockets, depending on whether you want to focus on raiding or Mythic+.

You will want to run Enchant Weapon - Lightless Force on both your weapons for Mythic+.

It is always recommended to sim yourself to find out what enchants provide the best benefit to you individually.

Spectral Flask of Power is our flask of choice.

Potion of Phantom Fire is the best pick for pure single-target. Use Potion of Spectral Agility for when you have 2 or more targets.

You will always want to have Shadowcore Oil applied to your weapons for single-target, and Shaded Sharpening Stone for Mythic+. Apply a Heavy Desolate Armor Kit to your chest armor.

Since Patch 8.0.1, Healthstones no longer share a cooldown with health potions. This means that players should always use Spiritual Healing Potions and Healthstones whenever available. The Potion provides much better Healing than a Healthstone.

The best food buff is provided by the Feast of Gluttonous Hedonism but it is quite costly; alternatives are Tenebrous Crown Roast Aspic or the cheaper Cinnamon Bonefish Stew. For Mythic+, you will want to use Spinefin Souffle and Fries or the cheaper Butterscotch Marinated Ribs instead.

If you can afford it, you should use Veiled Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. These will be very rare and scarcely available at the beginning of the expansion, so it is best to stock up for when you really need them.
