Why so few Rogues on P99?

[ripwind]

You can't do the epic until 46, unless you get a MQ, right?

[Lojik]

Not great for soloing but two of the best exp duo's I've done were shaman plus rogue and wizard plus rogue.

Without a fungi definitely much tougher. Once you get intimidate to 100/120ish, I remember it landed very regularly until I hit 40 or so.

If you can get to tower of kurns and do that til 20, it's very good quick exp. You can then switch to WW giant fort, although for the first level or two it can be hard. WW giants will take you right to 35 soloing, there's lots of room to kite on the ledge in fort one you're using intimidate. Another good place is unrest at level 20, good experience modifier, less cash drops, more competition.

Anyway, reason so few rogues, they are one of the hardest classes to solo with, and lots of people don't like to spend a bunch of time lfg if you can just log in and grind a bit and log out when you want.

Parts of it are planar, yeah.

Hmm I never noticed a shortage. Not that I'd complain about it. I think playing a rogue is blast and I'll be working on my second one on P99 soonish.

Or quitting. One of those.

soloed 1-57 so far, all it took is a fungi, some HP gear, and knowing where to level. Epic MQ's aren't too hard to come by, although I managed without til 53.

where did you level from 40 to 55 soloing?

I think we need more advice for the newbie OP from the guy who soloed with Epic + Fungi + HP Gear

Although I am semi twinked, I have leveled my rogue purely by grouping (except 1-5 ofc.) Here is where I am at so far:

1-4 newb yard

5-12 ec (wandering blues then orc 1 and orc 2)

13-14 north ro (scarabs and spiders or dervs)

15-20 oasis (crocs)

21-22 Unrest

23-28 (MM and where I am currently to at least 30+)

Average wait time on group is maybe 10 mintues. Twinking has had little impact outside tanking in Oasis a couple of levels when I was with all casters. for levels 1-14 youll be a zone away from EC (or in EC), ask people nicely for buffs. Its not a big deal for some people to buff you while they are trading. Take advantage of the help while its there.

also rogues can duo very well with some classes. I leveled a good portion of my first character (untwinked rogue) by aggro or fear kiting with a druid or necro partner.


More or less have them keep aggro with high threat spells and keep it snared while you stab it in the ass.

Check PM's, Sundawg watches me like a hawk because he likes to nerf my exp spots.
