Rogue Rotation Helper
A clean icon-only Combat Rogue recommendation layout with major cooldowns shown beside the main action.
Description
Rogue Rotation Helper is a compact PvE rotation advisor for Rogues in World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Classic 5.5.4.
It displays the next recommended ability as a large icon, with major offensive cooldowns arranged beside it. Detailed resources, timers, target mode, target count, and poison status are available by hovering over the recommendation.
The addon is recommendation-only. It never casts a spell, presses a key, targets an enemy, sends chat, downloads code, or automates gameplay.
Specialization status
Combat — beta: validated on level-90 single-target dummies and live dungeon pulls, including automatic AoE-to-cleave transitions.
Assassination — external alpha: focused live dummy, execute, four-plus target, pooling, and specialization-switching checks passed.
Subtlety — external alpha: focused live opener, maintenance, Shadow Dance/Vanish pooling, Find Weakness, Preparation, AoE, and switching checks passed.

Known beta limitations
• Raid-boss cooldown timing still needs broader live validation.
• Automatic enemy counting cannot see every unengaged or hidden enemy; manual modes are available for planned pulls.
• Killing Spree positioning and encounter-specific cooldown holds always require player judgment.
• Assassination and Subtlety need more dungeon and raid feedback before their alpha labels are removed.
