What do rogues bring to the table?Follow

There's one for you RP.

Azgalor, the fight meant for melee dps.

QQ more.

I'm sorry, there is absolutely nothing else that can or should be said on this topic.

Eh...alot of bosses are immune to kick...
*growls* Like all of BM...

The thing is, yea, alot of other classes do close to our DPS...but would you rather have a DPS Warrior or a Rogue? Especially when the Warrior could be tanking instead. Nothing against DPS Warriors, just saying.

Same thing with Shammies Resto>Enchance, you still get Windfury.

Rogues can do absolutely nothing but DPS, and as such we are better than anyone else at it. Besides Hunters, MAges, and Warlocks, who are a different kind of DPS class, the other classes all have something else they could be doing.
(Not including SPriests in that comment, SPriests rock.)

I think mages are the most like Black Mage, actually. There is no such ability as "roguedoken".

Rogues are just DPS. Every other class does DPS and something else (except for Paladins, who just tank or heal), so the DPS is usually a side benefit. I mean, spriests can deal good damage, but priests are designed to heal, so Number One is that priests heal. DPS is like Number Three, beneath their buffs. Warriors can DPS and whoever says they can't is...well, really dumb, but they also tank. Mages and Warlocks are DPS and crowd control.

Rogues are just flat-out stabbity doom. There's nothing deep or complicated about that. Rogues stab things (or alternately bash them) until they are dead. Their crowd control is minimal, their support abilities nonexistent, they can't heal and they're soft and squishy...so they make up for it with stabbity stabbiness.

Yep, that is true.

Anyways one more WWS Kaz'rogal. Can't find his/her armory though.

We bring the still-beating heart of our enemy who hasn't realized he just had his heart thieved for a full 30 seconds after its gone.

- Potentially best single-target DPS
- Minor though existent small-group AoE without hurting said single-target DPS
- Sap, useful on several pulls (ZA casters and Leo's room we use sap)
- The rare distract
- Mind Numbing/Wound poison - If nothing else, frees up a CoD from a lock, and it seems more guilds have fury warriors than MS for raiding
- Hemorrhage - despite the talk of doom, it's still (supposedly) about on par with pre-2.3 levels, which means it's slightly worse than combat swords.
- Best interrupt behind shammies

That log is really screwy. The whole parse doesn't even last 2 minutes, one of the locks hit 38000dps with 6%DPS time overall, Kaz'rogal's fight is split in two for some reason.


Except the Windfury and SoE aren't as powerful, you miss Unleashed Rage, loss of Stormstrike for elemental shammies, and it's much less likely that you'll be out of range of totems. As for rogues versus warriors or ret pallies, rogues can at least remain competitive if shammies are lacking.

Rogues are amazing at pvp if your good with one. Rogues also push out the most dps, and you dont have to worry about mana or anything.

Try being a mage, where your guild says the only reason they bring you is because we need you to polymorph things.

Poison mainly!

In raids, we bring the highest dps (if your properly geared). We burn **** down quickly and thats basically our main objective in ANY raid. Is that a problem? In pvp yeah warriors kick our asses but if you compare dps warriors to dps rogues in PVE, sorry the rogue will almost always win. Last night for Netherspite I topped the damage meter by approx. 75,000 compared to the dps warrior. Top that.

agreed eon... this **** looks like an o-board troll thread

*3v3 not 2v2

ok this arguement could go on forever. But basically a Rogue brings alot of dps yes, however they bring a small ammount of CC and no healing/support effects really. My opinion is that every group shuld have one person that is a straight up DPS. The ideal group setup for me is, Tank, DPS, Support, Healer, off-tank/dps. Thats an ideal setup in my opinion. Ye rogues dont bring very much to the table other then dps but you got 5 slots in a group. Having one person set in nothing but DPS means that they can excel. Why not get a dps warrior then? if they pull aggro they wont die right? they have armor and hp! Well a rogue can out dps a warrior if they kno what their doing, sry to all u warriors out there. but oh wait warrior sill has more armor and hp then rogue....well rogue has evasion and vanish. 2 evasions if u got prep. and maybe a ghostly strike too if u went into sub a bit. 1 eva + 1 GS = 75% dodge ontop of what you already have. And u can feint to get aggro back on tank. And u should have an off tank/dps to help try to get aggro off you or toher members. A support class to help out everyone (most likely a hybrid class, pally, sham, dru) with buffs and some added healing if needed hence "support" class. And a healer to keep people smiling. So what does rogue bring to the table..........simple dps and minimal CC, but im sry thats all a rogue needs in a group if group is setup right. And if u try to say well what if u have a bad setup then rogue isnt good...well STFU its a bad setup dumbass expect to die. but dont try to take out a class that is a master of 1 skill instead of a jack of multiple. Rogue = dps. so if you want someone to do dmg then pick a Rogue. We know what the f*ck to do when it comes to killing sh*t.
