hello
i'd say watch some rogue pvp/pve movies !
thats will work for sure ! good luck :p
Lmfao, you can't be serious.
Do you seriously call that "advice" if you don't even link any movies in particular...? And how do you expect someone to level up easily if all they're watching is 70s PvPing or raiding (you won't find too many movies of raiding rogues out there...)?
Please.
Motivation, I do believe.
Now you see, I have a problem with Videos being motiviation. I have quite honestly seen PvP / PvE videos from all classes showing me that they own everything in their path. A video of a rogue slicing through everyone and everything is impressive, yes, but no more or less impressive that a warrior or SP or Mage or any other class doing the same thing ... they are all out there .. look them up.
So the videos function as motivation for what you can do in this game, not really was makes the class unique (that's my opinion, anyhow)

Sorry - my post wasn't meant as advice - just that it seems odd you'd make 4 rogues only to give up after barely giving the class a chance. I started a warlock and hated it at first, but got it up to 35 and am loving leveling. And the above post about not playing your rogue like your warrior is my point exactly...you never took the time to learn how to play your class and assumed it sucked based on past diff. class experience.
Good, I never took it as advice ... I was being sarcastic. My post was put up here, because I was struggling to come to grips with the rogue as a class ... true, I may / should have given it more time, but based on previous experience with other classes, I was a little dissappointed with the way the rogue played, plain and Simple.
If it was your intention to tell me that I was struggling with the rogue because I was playing it as a warrior, then why didn't you just say so instead of trying to take a side-swipe at me for "giving up" (ok ok, I was giving up, but didn't want to .. hence my post asking for advice :-/)
Oh, I never said / assumed the rogue sucked, what I did say was that I was struggling to come to grips with the class mechanics.
It is now clear that I was looking at the class from the wrong angle, and thank you to those who have nicely pointed that out and given me a few minor pointers as to how I should be approaching it and what to expect.
I had (yes, in the last hour), levelled from 6 to 11, and, with a different perspective, am enjoying it a lot more.

Get a SLOW SWORD. At early levels, Blizzard does you a terrible disservice by starting you off with daggers.
Spec straight into Imp. Sinister Strike. By L12, if you have a proper level 2.6 speed green sword, you'll be slicing through mobs very quickly.
Stack on agility as much as you can even at low levels. You'll do a lot more damage and you'll find it more enjoyable.
Had never even given this any thought ... will definitely consider trying this out.
