Default Rogues in vellious

Was wondering about how much rogues are needed in vellious. I'm 46 atm but haven't played in a few months, RL stuff, but thinking about coming back for vellious. I know of course DPS for raids but I'm not in a guild currently. Any other use for a rogue,and how does poison making look for the new content.

Poison Making is needed for one of the ring quests I believe, Mind Melt.

I dont think anyone NEEDS a rogue perse, except for Mind Melt, corpse runs and unlocking doors. But everyone would PREFER a rogue over most other DPS in groups and raids.

Gear a rogue to mediocre status in Velious, then return to Classic/Kunark and pillage.

No other class has as much DPS as they have now, and they will still be the top dog in Velious DPS wise. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Since mobs will have a LOT more HP in Velious, and fights will last minutes not seconds, you will NEED a Rogue. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Bane Wizards laugh at poor little rogues.

Plus some mobs AC is ridiculously high. I think when we last beta tested Statue our 60 Avatar'd Rogues were hitting normal hits for 10-20 averages.

They are still great DPS on most mobs, no doubt. But some mob AC absolutely cripples them.

The mobs with MR vulnerability, for sure! But there are still a few magic immune ones that cannot be slowed or crippled cause immune.
