Rogues are great Mycota... you'll have to take the odd jibe that you don't have your epic at level 1 but they're great dps without an epic too. I didn't get mine til 52-53 and quested it myself... which I'd highly recommend. Far more rewarding to quest your own stuff

You could go druid first, there's a ton of druids around on the server so it's definitely a trend, but personally I'd try and pick up some cheap items in EC when you're able.
General tips: Put your highest DMG weapon in your main hand, and when you can dual wield you want a good ratio weapon in your offhand (jade mace 9/18 etc rather than a 12/34 wep).
That'll all come in time, for now just focus on getting your backstab and climbing the level ladder. Plenty of good people here to throw any rogue questions at, and you might find some good advice either on the wiki or in the class section at the base of the page.
