I guess it's time to join the elite ranks of the no-skill overpowered clasees like paladin, hunter or dk. Please noone say "You're not playing your class right" so on and so on. I, like most of you have 70s or high 60s in each of those other classes mentioned. I love my rogue, but it's just not fun having your *** handed to you time and time again. If yout think about it, noone except a mage should have a huge burst of dps as we do. That's our forte. Now you see paladins and huntards and dks hitting as hard as we do. That's the only thing that is given to our class, to be sneaky and hit hard. When other classes hit as hard as us and are more veratile and more of a utility, what good are we?

Speaking as someone who plays both rets are an absolutely faceroll, no-skill class to play in pvp. And consequently very dull.

Rogues are hundreds of times more fun to kill people as, and you get 12k+ crits on clothies to boot.

edit: Fun story. I have a 39 twink paladin too, a side project i put a lot of cash into. Exorcism is broken at low levels, i think they didn't take into account certain scaling issues with the spell being usable on players. I've seen 1200 crits, which will one-shot low levels who have entered the BG, or simply remove a warlocks pet.

From 30 yards.

I already rerolled a DK, and i'm having a lot more fun since I did.



Why? So you can post inaccurate info in DK forums as well?



Edit: I apologize, maybe tri-spec for DK's is good these days.

Whenever you're ******** up in PvP it's mostly a gear issue, I've found. Given the right gear I can own completely, but ocassionaly I run into someone who vastly outgears me and it becomes like hitting a brick wall. I don't seem to get healers who have such gear below 80% or 70%, and DPS with this gear generally kill me in three blasts (though I notice the healers more since DPS never get the jump on me).

Also, spec can probably make a huge difference. I swapped from mutilate to shadowdance daggers not too long ago myself. Granted, I've yet to try it out for real in the arenas, but it has turned me from a "I simply don't deal enough damage to get anything down" into a "4K 45 energy Backstab crits on MAIL wearers ftw machine".


I used to have this itchy feeling about rogues being low on the PvP food chain, but the feeling somewhat went away since I respecced. I just need to try out my spec in an arena when I get a chance.

I don't get three shot. The only time I get really beat down is by a ret pally that doesn't suck at his class. With all the tools you have as a rogue, you should never get 3 shot.

I've officially decided that you're stupid.

And I can self heal, damn it. I didn't raise my first aid for nothing!

You're a ******* moron, and like most DKs, terrible.

"Guys I suck at <class>, so it must be awful! It's impossible for me to be anything but an incredibly skilled ninja!"

Rogues were the FOTM class when you played them in S3/S4, and now you're a DK in S5/S6; why am I not surprised? Smiley: oyvey

Am I the only one that saw this and went, lolwut?





Oh and.... if you feel that Rogues are bad in PVP you are either


A. REALLY undergeared (by that I mean not even Naxx gear)
B. You suck.
C. You're British (see B)

There is no two. Silly Americans, they can't even tell the difference between a letter and a number.

Personally, I miss the old ShS playstyle of control and survivability. Anyway, the few times I logged into WoW on my rogue in the past two weeks I was more than fine in PvP (for the record, I quit pretty much the second I hit 80 and only just returned, so... yeah. I think my best pieces of gear are papercuttersx2), as long as I had a cooldown or two to burn. Maybe your opponents are no better than you and are just playing easymode classes, but your situation would still be vastly improved by improving upon your own skill, rather than throwing in the towel. Especially since we just got a large poison damage buff.
#15Zafire, Posted: Apr 20 2009 at 3:15 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) how can you say Rogue hits hard? Hardest I hit plate buffed up the yin yang (4k AP) is 1100 mutilates. Hardest i've ever seen a Rogue hit me in a BG on my DK in frost presence is 1400, and he had hunger for blood.

That you're using Blood in PvP is testament to how utterly bad you are.

BTW, I hit like a truck against plate (hit a 4k Mut tonight on a ret pally with no wings).

Edit: and my gear is pretty ******, too. 2800 AP, 23% crit.

You're just bad.

You hit a really bad paladin.

Keep on playing, you're new to 80 still. I've grinded about 500k honor on my rogue in season 5, i've done more then 5 BG's since I hit 80.

If someone focuses you, you're going to die.

I really don't see how you can call me utterly terrible, when my Rogue gear is better then yours, my daggers are better then yours, I use hunger for blood in PVP too, yet I don't hit for 4k on plate unelss they suck.

Well, or i'm using eviscerate

Edited, Apr 20th 2009 8:30pm by Zafire

I don't know if you know this, but mutilate hits twice.

BTW, I've done about 200-250k honor on my rogue, and done multiple WGs.

I don't notice that I get bursted down any faster than I did in S2 mutilate or S3 when I was HARP.

Oh wait, I actually live longer because of Prep when I'm mutilate.

I can call you terrible when you're worse at rogue with better gear.

I underlined for emphasis of how bad you are.
#19Zafire, Posted: Apr 20 2009 at 4:47 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If you really think you get bursted down just as fast in S2 and S3 you need to play more. Any class will kill you in 3-5 hits, depending on how much they crit you.

I got a better idea. join an arena team, then get back to me.

Playing rogue/rogue with MYteddy, 1900+ this season inc.

Edit: BTW, no class has 3-5 shot me yet, and I've been dueling people that got 2k+ this season in my ****** gear.

People where complaining because a priest with 1100 resil was getting bursted down from 100->30% in one stun.

You really don't have enough experience yet.

And you're lying about the 250k honor thing, because when you where 77 your lifetime honorable kills was nearly the same.

You're a ******* idiot if you think HKs = honor earned.

WG dailys every day since WotLK was released. Oshi, whaaaat?

6-7k a day = lolhonor.

FYI, if you sit through a pally stun, you're a ******* ******.

I 100-0 pallys.

I'm going to pull a Seth Meyers and say.....Really? I mean..REALLY?

Zaph, are you honestly telling Theo that he is new to 80 and needs more experience? I'm not sucking Theo's ween here but he can trip and spill more knowledge about rogues than you think you know. Your extensive 'testing' produced an utterly fail tri spec, and you've admitted in this very forum that you can't hit for more than 1100 on plate. I'll be more than happy to post screenies of me dueling a 4/5 val naxx geared pally doing well more than that. And I'm in fairly trash WG rep helm and boots, w/ deadly chest and legs. You've also e-cried about being 3 shot...which just doesn't happen. Unless you don't know how to use a trinket...vanish...cloak...blind...oh yea...all the rogue defensive abilities. Forgot about those, huh? And HFB in pvp is awesome. Even glyphed. Keep it up budday. 10 to 1 Theo doesn't even have to warn the DK forums about your ignorance...you've already proved that no doubt.
