What Stats do I Want as an Outlaw Rogue?
Versatility and Critical Strike for raiding as well as Mythic+.

The DPS differences between the races are fairly minimal. The best races for DPS on Horde are Vulpera, Orcs and Undead. For Alliance Mechagnome, Void Elf and Gnome are the best.
What Covenant is best for Outlaw Rogue?
All Covenants are viable choices. Kyrian currently sims best for
single-target, and Necrolord is evenly matched on cleave/AoE and for
Mythic+. Venthyr can be very competitive when talenting into
Dreadblades at higher gear levels.

single-target and Mythic+.
