Rogues going Hemo should avoid that "Combat Hemo" spec, unless they want a signifigant nerf in DPS. I suggest if you wish to go Hemo anything, you should use a hybrid 11/27/23 spec (See armory entry for Schadow on Steamwheedle Cartel (US) for the spec I use).

Per the RogueDPS spreadsheet, my personal DPS, excluding the Hemo debuff estimate, drops 5.38% if I was to use the Combat Hemo build presented here. No wonder it's so far down the list!

While Combat Potency seems like a good thing, getting some skills in the assassination tree will benefit you even more.

The hybrid build will help you maintain your personal DPS, and in a 25-man raid will cause more overall damage than even a Combat Swords build. For doubters, download my character info into the RogueDPS spreadsheet and have a look at the numbers yourself.
