Best 1k-6k weapon combination for new rogue

With 6k, I would fill up a bag of tools not so much only weapons..

1k - Locustlure (slow proc + best 1-10 rogue weapon in the game imo)
1k - Bloodpoint (lifetap +5 str)
1500 - Small Dragonbone Shard (your 13 dmg mainhand 10+)
2500 - Velium Swiftblade (36% haste..crappy offhand stats, but cheapest 36% haste you can get)

I am not a statistician or anything. But the "eye test", the way I felt my rogue played 20+ with the swiftblade offhand / small dragonbone shard was more DPS than anything I could put in offhand for damage..

Can't be understated how awesome the locustlure is 1-10 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I thought about this too, glad you brought it up. I wondered if the swiftblade in offhand with the big haste boost would be better with a small dragonbone shard in mainhand, or if schw with small dragonbone shard with other higher ratio weapon in offhand would be better?
