Both of these Uniques are Gloves so you can only have one or the other, really depends if you want the additional Crowd Control.

Condemnation (1H Dagger) – Core Skills deal Increased damage when spending 3 Combo Points. Skills using this weapon have a 30% chance to generate 3 Combo Points.

Glyphs

When it comes to the Paragon Board, we recommend aiming to use these Glyphs for the Deathless Rogue Build:

  • Closer
  • Combat
  • Exploit
  • Diminish 
  • Control

These Glyphs work well with the rest of the build, in some cases, you may want to prioritize them in a different order. For example, if you end up using the Frostburn Unique Gloves, it is worth slotting in Control as you will be slowing and freezing the enemies.

Rogue Specializations

As for the Specializations, we recommend using Combo Points or Inner Sight. Inner Sight is really good for the unlimited Energy buff. However, when you obtain the Condemnation Unique Weapon, you are best off switching to the Combo Points Specialization.
