My rogue main became my rogue alt a long time ago. I still enjoy it, but I'm not all that current with rogue techniques. Columns like this really help.

I'm curious about how Smoke Bomb works, I've tried it and still got nailed. If someone already has you targeted and you Smoke Bomb, do they keep you targeted? And, did I read somewhere that aoe works through Smoke Bomb?

Smoke bomb will only stop new, targeted attacks from coming in (if there is a spell on its way to you, it will still hit you. If your enemy is standing in the smoke bomb, they can target and attack you. However, an enemy standing in your smoke bomb and their healer standing outside of it means no heals for the enemy in the smoke bomb with you.

All non-targeted attacks (AoE; arcane explosion, blade storm, hellfire, etc.) will not be obstructed by smoke bomb.

Some useful ways to use smoke bomb include (but are most definitely not limited to) stopping a charge from a warrior/feral druid, stunning someone inside it before you blow all your CDs to keep heals off them, using it to drop combat and re-stealth, bandaging inside it, etc.
