AEP stands for Agility Equivalence Points

The formula for AEP is as follows:

1 Agility = 1 Stamina = 2 Strength = .1% Crit. = 5 Defense = .2% Dodge = .13% Parry = .13% To Hit = 2 Attack Power = 5 Daggers = 4 Any Resistance = 5 Health/5 Sec. = 50 Armor

Using this forumla you can compare gear and decide if it is indeed worth switching out for

A great site with a Chart listing of armor for rogues is http://shadowpanther.net/wow.htm/

It lists the armor stats along with their calculated AEP values

Fascinating!  I've followed some of the number crunching more for priests.  My #1 alt is a rogue though.  I guess in the back of my mind I knew that Agi flowed through to pretty much almost everything else.

Thanks for digging up that compact info and Agi=[Stat] forumla!

Let's include that in our library section for rogues!  It really is pretty important info.

The information is both very useful and facinating. But I am curious where the causal relationships are. For example (maybe):

General (All Classes)
1 AGI = 5 Defense

5 Defense = 50 Armor && 4 Any Resistance && .13% Parry && .2% Dodge

2 Attack Power = .1% Crit && .13% to hit

Rogue Specific
(1 AGI OR 1 STA OR 1 STR) = 2 Attack Power && 5 Daggers && 5 Defense && 5 health/5 sec

Any links or information on larger game dynamics?

I ask because for Druids, 1 STR = 2 AP, but 1 AGI = 1 AP (with new patch), and I would be curious what is default behavior and what is rogue specific out of that.

i have no idea about the information on the larger game dynamics. i don't even know how the AEP formula came to be since the post was gone by the time i found out about it.

you might tryout www.worldofwar.net
i know they have a forum category called Number Crunching or something along those lines which has forumulas and other things i.e determening the dps, how often things will proc, etc.
