The '''Offering of the Sha'tar''' is a small chest containing one of two Illidari trophy tabards ([[Green Trophy Tabard of the Illidari|green]] or [[Purple Trophy Tabard of the Illidari|purple]]) as a gift from the [[Sha'tar]] for defeating the legions of [[Illidan Stormrage]].
Among every ability a [[rogue]] has at his disposal, '''Ambush''' is without a doubt the hardest hitting rogue ability.''
 
Ambush is learned at level 18, and becomes one of the dagger rogue's best friends.

*<small>''Note that damage listed is in addition to the innate 275% <br>weapon damage bonus that comes with using Ambush.''</small>
 
 
==Related Talents==
 
*[[Remorseless Attacks]] gives your next Ambush a 20 or 40% increased chance to crit after killing an opponent that yields honor or experience. The improved crit chance lasts for 20 seconds. (Stacks with [[Improved Ambush]])
 
*[[Opportunity]] increases the damage of your Ambush by 10 or 20%.
 
*[[Initiative]] gives you a 33, 66, or 100% chance to add an additional combo point to your target when using your Ambush ability.
 
*[[Improved Ambush]] increases the critical strike chance of Ambush by 25 or 50%. (Stacks with [[Remorseless Attacks]])
 
*[[Master of Subtlety]] increases damage by 4, 6 or 10% during stealth and for 6 seconds afterward.
 
*[[Seal Fate]] 20, 40, 60, 80, or 100% chance to add an additional combo point when ambush crits.
 
*[[Shadowstep]] increases the damage of your next Ambush within 10 seconds by 20%.
 
*[[Slaughter from the Shadows]] decreases the energy cost of Ambush by 3, 6, 9, 12, or 15 energy.
 
*[[Shadow Dance]] allows you to perform Ambush out of stealth for 10 seconds on a 2 second cooldown.
 
*[[Lethality]] increases the critical strike damage of Ambush by 30%.
 
 
==Damage Calculation Formula==
 
The basic damage formula for ambush
 
[[Opportunity]] = 1 + (0.1 * Opportunity Rank)
 
[[Master of Subtlety]] = 1 + (0.03 * Master of Subtlety Rank + 0.01)
 
[[Lethality]] = 0.06 * Lethality Rank
 
 
Modifier = (Attack Power / 14) * 1.7
 
 
Damage = [(Weapon Damage + Modifier) * 2.75 + Rank Bonus Damage] * Opportunity * Master of Subtlety
 
Critical Damage = Damage * (2 + Lethality)
 
 
==Tips==
 
*Very effective in taking out [[Cloth Armor|cloth-wearing]] targets quickly.
 
*Ambush really begins to shine with the [[Improved Ambush]] Talent which, with 3 talent points spent, increases the [[crit|critical strike]] chance of Ambush by 45%.
 
*Ambush is arguably preferable over [[Cheap Shot]] in [[PvP]] as an opener against [[Mage|mages]], as a mage's [[Blink]] ability is usable while under a stun effect.
 
*A [[Crit|critical]] hit with an Ambush followed by an [[Improved Sinister Strike]] (or a well-timed [[Backstab]]) can put an enemy at a severe health disadvantage from the beginning of the fight, in addition to starting you off with 2 [[Combo Points]].
 
*Use [[Distract]] in PvE if you are having trouble getting behind a target to line up an Ambush.
 
*The improved crit chance derived from the [[Remorseless Attacks]] talent stacks with that from the [[Improved Ambush]] talent, making it possible for a rogue with 15% or more base crit chance to obtain a 100% Ambush crit chance during the Remorseless effect.
 
*A quickly-executed "Ambush -> Vanish -> Ambush" combo attack can inflict severe damage on any single target with the correct enhancing talents.
