Rogues are the only class that can wait to attack someone, its so fun being the predator and not the prey =D. Though more often then not I find that all of a sudden there's 5 ally's helping out the victim out of nowhere, the joys of being a rogue.
And that is why I always get jumped. I rolled a rogue mainly for: 1. Melee DPS 2. Not being the prey
I'm never the predator unless it is someone on my special list, which is only 2 names... both paladins. I use my rogue skills to hide, I really should be on a PVE server but all my friends are here
Rogues seem to swing on the nerf/buff pendulum a lot. I had a release day rogue that I played through until I broke my hand and sold my account last year. I miss it now but damn was it super frustrating at times (pre cloak of shadows especially). -- I'd take the time to insult your intelligence, but you probably wouldn't get it.
