Curated for PvP — enemy cooldown tracking, CC diminishing returns, and Garrote-from-Stealth openers for both 3v3 Arena and Battlegrounds. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.
Fatebound arena build — Lucky Coin stacks amplify burst windows around Deathmark. Consistent pressure through bleed uptime with explosive kill potential when coins align.
Fatebound battleground build — sustained bleed pressure across multiple targets with Caustic Spatter poison spread. Better for the target-switching and multi-player scenarios common in BGs.

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.

Cast bars and bleed duration icons on enemy nameplates — see at a glance which targets have Garrote or Rupture about to fall off without tab-cycling. Also flags interruptible casts for Kick without losing your focus target.

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 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.

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.

Floating button showing both weapon poisons with timers, one-click swap, and auto-restock from vendors. The expiry warning fires before the poison drops so you're never caught in a pull with uncoated weapons — losing Deadly Poison mid-Deathmark window cuts directly into your damage regardless of content.
