Monks and Rogues - wanted or not?
 
Just curious if there is a desire for monks/rogues in top tier raid guilds nowadays?

I am asking because I am curious if there is a need for these two classes, or if they are an overabundance.

Slightly off topic, but couldn't find a 40+ rogue for CE this morning in Seb.

Seem to be alot more monks around then rogues.

Well.. of course lol.

It would be much easier to get into a top guild as a decently geared rogue. Just don't be afk during engages and don't be a dick head and you're pretty much on the fast track to full member. There is no such thing as too many clerics or too many rogues during raids imo.

It's much harder to make full member as a monk. Having enough competent monks during pulls is crucial to success. However monk DPS is not. So you have to quickly learn what to do and how to do it.

CE in Seb is terrible exp and loot for effort required thats why.
Monks i hear are quite decent in EQ but they could use a boost to be completely viable raiders so i think triple attack is coming to help. Id still take a well played ranger over a monk though for most situations.

Are you meaning resist gears, or just overall?

I think he means by virtue of it being v hard to suck as a rogue on a raid unless you dont know what evade is or enjoy ploughing enrage. Theres a reason my first and main eq toon is a rogue. I look less bad. Youll also be top DPS unless youre using a rusty spoon.

I see, that actually makes sense too. Way less responsibility and the gameplay of rogue is 100% most simplest of all classes. Cool, laid back class but very simple.

Completely agree on CE, but at least it has a LDONesque dungeon crawl feel to it.

If you are looking at raiding, something to consider is precision warriors are not terribad dps, and has innately higher magic resist than other classes. I understand if you don't want to do war as perhaps you don't want to be pressured into gearing to be tank capable.
