You would think, huh? I guess you missed my seminar on getting your epic guildless. Or maxing poison with all vendors, that's actually on the wiki now I think. Or stat targets for gearing. Or setting up a two person corpse drag macro. How to compare offhands. Why push matters (does that still break spells?) Why dark elf rogue is best choice. There's a lot of eclectic shit I learned during my safehouse years which isn't immediately apparent to someone picking up the best class in the game. | |||

-Why would dark elves make the best Rogue? They have the lowest starting strength, lowest stamina, lowest dexterity. They have evil faction so aren't welcome in most cities, and other races can simply get the Guise to have the dark elf look and ultravision. -Even the P99 Wiki states that poisons are generally poor. "Unfortunately, they aren't used much. Some of them are situational such as muscle lock IV procs, which are good for soloing if you're a rogue with high enough intimidate but the slows/snares/debuffs are weak in group/raid content and offer not a whole lot of benefit. " I remember playing on live, and it wasn't until Shissar poisons came out that I ever saw Rogues even starting to use them. Lastly, were you saying they are the best class in the game? That's entirely subjective I guess, to a point. Curious why you think so. Pro's: Sneak/hide is useful, as is snagging corpses, lockpicking (at least for a few doors - couple in Old Seb, Chardok, and maybe 1 in City of Mist). Exp bonus is nice. Consistent DPS. Easy epic quest. Low pop numbers means they have a good chance at planar drops. Con's: Very group dependent (not necessarily a con), Evade can be unreliable (not nearly as good as Feign Death or Jolt for dropping aggro), extremely gear dependent (Classic offers little in the way of good piercers), generally won't top DPS parses until they get their epic, low level of utility outside pure DPS Anyway. Certainly don't have anything against Rogue's, you just mentioned some things I haven't ever heard before. | |||

Everyone is the same-ish stats in the end. Some of them can wear BIS pretty blue dresses. Dark elves can and they also confuse the shit out of people because the mask existing trips a bug in most people's code. This is kinda funny.

Being KoS to most towns turns a mundane trip to the bank into dangerous content that you can circumvent with the rogue toolset. Rogues can bank anywhere. It's more interesting as a Dark Elf.
Poison can be a game changer for soloing. The root poison has a 30 sec 50% slow, which can make an otherwise impossible solo possible. There's not too many useful poisons, but snare and root/slow are amazing. | ||
