http://cata.wowhead.com/talent#f0bZcGfcocbRGo0h

Combat is going to be using Mongoose on the main-hand with Black Magic on the off-hand.

Mutilate is double Mongoose

Combat gems:
Red gems = Agility
Yellow gems = 10 agi/10 haste (Deft Ametrine)
Blue gems = 10 agil/10 hit (Glinting Ametrine)

Open with Ambush (or even Garrote) (currently does not allow me to use backstab on the PTR though ive read that combat rogues can now)
Since that will apply 1-2 CP i pop SnD (keep it up near 100% of the time refreshing it as needed)
Adrenalin Rush
Sinister Strike x4 (if you dont proc up to 5 combo points using SS then..)
Revealing Strike (otherwise...)
Rupture (use on the 5th combo point)

ou want to gem for the socket bonus if your gear has...

- a single blue socket (with any number of red sockets), with at least a 6 agility socket bonus
- a single blue socket with a single yellow socket (with any number of red sockets), with at least an 8 agility socket bonus

I've speeced Sub so far on my rogue. SHe's only lvlv 54 tho. Really owns in PvP so far, have one-shotted everything from priests to hunters and even the odd warrior. only thigns that gives me trouble in those pesky DK's. My focus is basically on ambush and getting it to crit. my reg hits are around 1K and my crits go for about 4K so maxing that dmg as much as I can with talents.
