Though they can be tough to level in WoW SoD, with these best Rogue Runes equipped, Rogues find it easy to top damage meters in endgame Raids.

In SoD Phase 3 Rogues have access to six new Runes which can be equipped on the Bracer/Wrist and Head gear. This guide covers all of the new Rogue Runes SoD P3 introduces, including details on each Rune's effects and how to acquire them. Check our companion pieces for information on Rogue Runes in Phases One and Two, as these are not included below.

Updated April 11, 2024 by Erik Petrovich: Now that players have had time to delve into SoD Phase 3, and hunt down all six new Rogue Runes, every Rogue Rune in SoD P3 has finally been Discovered. To get all Phase 3 Rogue Runes, SoD players will have to travel to many different locations and complete a variety of tasks, but two P3 Rune quests are shared amongst all classes. By acquiring Wild Offerings through a new SoD P3 questline, and by raising your Reputation with the Emerald Wardens to Friendly, all classes can buy one new SoD P3 Rune – Rogues included – for two per class. This guide has been updated to describe how to get all Rogue Runes SoD Phase 3 has for players to equip in their Head and Bracer slots – just remember to open the Discovery box and read the specific details of each new Rogue Rune location hidden below each entry.

To preserve the sense of mystery intended for the Season of Discovery, each Phase 3 SoD Rogue Rune location is hidden by default. Open the "Click to Reveal" box to show location details.
