The subject of this article was removed from World of Warcraft in patch 4.0.1. This includes items and quests that can no longer be obtained. The in-game information in this article is kept purely for historical purposes and should probably not be under any other categories.

Preparation is a Subtlety talent spell which refreshes cooldowns on many Rogue abilities. As such it is used by many builds, mainly [Ambush] dagger rogues, providing for up to three ambushes in quick succession every 8 minutes. Having a [Glyph of Preparation] will make this ability even more useful.

NotesEdit

As it may only be used once every 8 minutes, it is a good idea to burn multiple skills as to gain the most from its effect. Save Preparation for when you don't have other choices.

Tips and tacticsEdit

It may be a life-saving ability. If you're about to die and you have your [Vanish] still on cooldown, use Preparation and you will be able to vanish again.
