Talent Builds

Using this build

Fatebound Mythic+

Fatebound

M+ build using Fatebound — Caustic Spatter spreads poison damage across packs and Fate Intertwined provides consistent Envenom amplification. The recommended choice for general key pushing.

Deathstalker High-Key Mythic+

Deathstalker

High-key M+ build using Deathstalker — Kingsbane stacks with every poison application on priority targets, pulling ahead on dungeons where killing the right mob quickly is more important than cleave.

Addons

Why no WeakAuras? Midnight's API blocks WeakAuras from reading your buffs and cooldowns. The addons here cover what it used to handle.

Boss timers

Works in Midnight Updated 20 May 2026

For Assassination Rogue, knowing exactly when a dangerous cast is incoming lets you time Cloak of Shadows correctly, or know when to use Garrote silence before a pull to prevent a dangerous ability. LittleWigs is required for dungeon boss modules — install both.

Advanced Ground effect alerts

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

For Assassination Rogue, melee range means you're in the thick of boss hitboxes and ground effects — the audio alarm is your early warning to reposition without breaking your bleed application mid-GCD. Install knowing it's significantly more limited than pre-Midnight — it covers specific tracked boss mechanics only, not general ground effects.

Details! Damage Meter

Damage meters

345.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Per-spell breakdown across the fight — bleeds should dominate your damage split. High Envenom share means you're spending combo points before full bleed uptime; the Deathmark window contribution shows whether your burst is aligned correctly.

OmniCD

Group cooldowns

33.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 27 Feb 2026

Tracks group cooldowns from the combat log — Bloodlust tracking is the main use for Assassination Rogue. Deathmark should always overlap with lust since every bleed and poison tick is amplified during that window.

BasicComboPoints

Combo points

Works in Midnight Updated 22 Apr 2026

Larger, repositionable combo point display with configurable colour and font — easier to track than the default when you're also watching bleeds and energy. Critical during Deathmark when every GCD decision depends on your current count.

TrufiGCD

Advanced GCD timeline

1.3M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 Mar 2026

Frames & Action Bars 3

BetterBlizzFrames

Unit frames

6.1M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 17 May 2026

BetterBlizzFrames keeps the default UI intact while adding the things it lacks: castbars on your target and focus frames, class color health bars, and absorb tracking. For Assassination Rogue, a target castbar tells you when a dangerous spell is being cast so you know when to Kick or use Cloak of Shadows. A one-addon upgrade with no layout overhead.

Dominos

Action bars

22.2M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Dominos gives you full control over action bar layout. For Assassination Rogue, a dedicated utility bar keeps Cloak of Shadows, Evasion, Sprint, Shadowstep, Kick, and Vanish at consistent visible positions so your main bar stays focused on the bleed and Envenom rotation.

Tukui.org addon

Works in Midnight Updated 15 May 2026

Most of what ElvUI covers for Assassination Rogue is better handled by BetterBlizzFrames (frames), Dominos (action bars), and Platynator (nameplates). Only install if you want a fully unified UI aesthetic and are prepared for the configuration overhead.
