Think this build would be viable for PvP?

I'm open to any and all suggestions.

I understand that swords are optimal for frontal rogues (SS-Spam), but I'm looking to do frontal with daggers - hence the dagger talents in the combat tree.

Goal is to hit hard, fast and crit.. and this seems like a pretty logical way to do so.

Builds only support your play style, or they should at least. I put in some points in the subtlety to get improved sap, which comes in handy when you run into more than one person in PvP and you can even use it on people to set up for an ambush. If you like your build and the abilities it gives you, then go for it. You can probably make any build work for PvP.

bleh, I realize that.. but it never hurts to ask for input =)



..oh yeah the reason I went dagger talents is to keep the ability to use the "back moves" without switching weapons during combat.
