As suggested on the guild channel, I'm posting my build - or the one I'm aiming for at 60, anyway - here.

I think of it as an 'allround' sort of build, flexible enough to do both PvE and PvP. I'm primarily using daggers, so the Combat tree is not very developed.

Level Required: 60
Points Spent: 51


Assassination Talents - 21 points
Improved Eviscerate - rank 3/3
Malice - rank 5/5
Ruthlessness - rank 3/3
Murder - rank 2/2
Relentless Strikes - rank 1/1
Lethality - rank 5/5
Vile Poisons - rank 1/5
Cold Blood - rank 1/1

Combat Talents - 8 points
Improved Gouge - rank 3/3
Improved Sinister Strike - rank 2/2
Improved Backstab - rank 3/3

Subtlety Talents - 22 points
Master of Deception - rank 5/5
Opportunity - rank 5/5
Initiative - rank 5/5
Improved Ambush - rank 3/3
Improved Sap - rank 3/3
Preparation - rank 1/1


Now, the one point in Vile Poisons on the Assassination tree is really mostly 'filler' to get to 20 points, so I could get Cold Blood. Looking at the other options available to me, I decided that a 3% overall increase in poison damage was by far the better alternative. Your mileage may vary, of course.

Same build as I used up until this week.

Now on:

Assaination: (30 points)

Improved Eviscerate - rank 3/3
Malice - rank 5/5
Murder - rank 2/2
Ruthlesness - rank 3/3
Relentless strikes - rank 1/1
Lethality - rank 5/5
Improved instant poison - rank 5/5
Cold Blood - rank 1/1
Seal Fate - rank 5/5

Combat: (2 points)

Improved sinister Strike - rank 2/2

Subtlety: (19 points)

Master of Deception - rank 5/5
Camoflauge - Rank 5/5
Ghostly Strike - Rank 1/1
Initiative- Rank 5/5
Improved Sap - Rank 3/3

With a bit more crit gear this is a nice all out damage build (fastest to a 5 point Evis) with swords. Not startling for PvP because of the lack of ambush damage for pesky casters but should (I hope) be evil in instances.

Here's Naduni's build. It's a dual wield build aimed at PvP, but is excellent for PvE as well. I often outdamage rogues and certainly arms warriors in PvE. Not very good for organized duels, though. The idea is to proc flurry by using hamstring between bloodthirst cooldowns. Heroic strike and whirlwind used for dumping rage.
It's slightly dangerous because it has a "chain effect". Once you start critting and proc'ing flurry a lot, you just keep doing damage insanely fast. That means you have to disengage sometimes in MC to be sure you are not overnuking.
Specifically, it's very good for bosses. You can do huge DPS without being feared by boss abilities and you can even self-heal slight damage with bloodthirst and crusader enchantment. Once the boss hits under 20% health, you can get some nice crits in, because you gain so much rage, you can execute quite a few times as well.


Arms Talents (10 points)

Deflection - 5/5 points
Tactical Mastery - 5/5 points


Fury Talents (41 points)

Cruelty - 5/5 points
Unbridled Wrath - 5/5 points
Blood Craze - 3/3 points
Improved Battle Shout - 5/5 points
Piercing Howl - 1/1 point
Improved Execute - 2/2 points
Enrage - 5/5 points
Dual Wield Specialization - 5/5 points
Death Wish - 1/1 point
Improved Intercept - 2/2 points
Flurry - 5/5 points
Improved Berserker Rage - 1/2 point <--- Can be put somewhere else if prefered
Bloodthirst - 1/1 point


Protection Talents (0 points)

None

Not that we have many priests who might be interested, but...

Aela's shadowy raid build:
Minimum Required Level: 60
Required Talent Points: 51

Discipline Talents - 20 points

# Silent Resolve - rank 5/5
# Improved Power Word: Shield - rank 3/3
# Improved Power Word: Fortitude - rank 2/2
# Mental Agility - rank 5/5
# Mental Strength - rank 5/5

Shadow Talents - 31 points

# Spirit Tap - rank 5/5
# Shadow Affinity - rank 5/5
# Improved Shadow Word: Pain - rank 2/2
# Shadow Focus - rank 5/5
# Mind Flay - rank 1/1
# Shadow Reach - rank 2/3
# Shadow Weaving - rank 5/5
# Darkness - rank 5/5
# Shadowform - rank 1/1

Of course, spirit tap can be switched to Blackout instead, but this build enables you to solo quite well too. Not as well as a standard shadowbuild, but still.. Plenty of threat reduction keeps the mob focused on the tank and me at the top of the damage lists =)

When I played at being a good and nice priest, this was my build:
Minimum Required Level: 60
Required Talent Points: 51

Discipline Talents - 26 points

# Unbreakable Will - rank 5/5
# Improved Power Word: Shield - rank 3/3
# Improved Power Word: Fortitude - rank 2/2
# Mental Agility - rank 5/5
# Mental Strength - rank 5/5
# Meditation - rank 5/5
# Inner Focus - rank 1/1

Holy Talents - 25 points

# Improved Renew - rank 5/5
# Holy Specialization - rank 5/5
# Spiritual Healing - rank 5/5
# Inspiration - rank 5/5
# Subtlety - rank 5/5

Made to keep those pesky tanks alive, mostly. Inspiration does wonders for conserving mana. Not quite as effective spamhealing though, but it works for that too. High mana, good mana regen and a free spell once in awhile. It worked good for me.
