Never played a Rogue, one of two classes I can say I have 0 experience with. After an afternoon goofing around with a velium rapier and helping a kindly rogue kill Renux, I got the urge to twink one up. There's a wealth of info out there but I had a few questions.
1) Weapons: 13/26 mainhand seems pretty clear until epic, and I believe the ratio is all that matters for offhand.. But what about same ratios with different speeds/stats? Does it even matter using
17/34 versus a
12/24? I assume prices for similar ratios depend on stats/fashion/weapon type more than anything else.. but a
Lath Drinor goes for 6-8k, whereas a
Balanced velium warsword has a (barely) better ratio and goes for 1-2k.. doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
2) Ranged: I assume most rogues are rocking an Idol of the Thorned until they get the bow from the coldain quest, but are bows/thrown ever used? I've collected throwing boulders for fun but damn are they heavy..
3) Groupage: Are (twinked) rogues a hot commodity for groups? I've been playing a twinked-out Ranger, but I'll be damned if anybody cares. I'm fine with having to be proactive, but sometimes its like pulling teeth for pick-up groups. If I'm going to be even more group reliant as a Rogue, I'd hope we get picked up pretty quickly?
Thanks! Any good links would be appreciated.
