Rogue News/Latest Accomplishment ThreadFollow

First piece of T4! Gloves, of course. Got some Assault put on them as soon as I got back to Shatt, and they're good to go.

Got my first Kara drop after 3 months of running.

Drape of the Dark Reavers. Need to put +12 AGI on it though, heh.

Finally find a friend to do 2v2 Arena with. it was definately an eye opening experience. Our first time through we went 3-17. We're getting better though.

Theo's Accomplishment:

Crushing the will to live of all other rogues.
=p

my accomplishment

ding! pally 26 :D so pro, bought him some shiny blues and everything just for the occasion ^_^

i know it isnt rogue but hey come on, im never gonna get any new accomplishments on my rogue for a long while now -_-





it has been statistically proven-ish that netherspite dropping that sword is a bug... the 'spiteblade' is actually on taerar's loot table, replacing his previous 'nightmare blade'

thats why you havent seen it, go be old school and get some phat sword action

My Finest Rogue Accomplishment (so far)

Feel free to utterly ignore this, as my rogue is only level 19 at this point. I rolled him Friday and played him up till Sunday (actual /played of 1 day, 4 hours).

Thus far I don't have many accomplishments, and my only one I even consider worthy of mention is that myself and a 20 Palli were in Ghostlands and decided to see if we could take on those two huge giant thingies (one at a time, obviously).

We find one (they are 22 elites, I believe) wandering the dead scar. Stealth up (and not seen! WOOT!), backstab, Palli jumps in and starts taking Aggro. A few CP generators later and I hit Expose Armor. Palli one shots him when he had a quarter health left.

I mention this as an accomplishment for several reasons:

1) It showed me that rogues can absolutely destroy mobs higher level than them if done right

2) Gave me an idea of how rogues can function within the context of a party (I did my first 17 levels or so solo)

So, I hope that's an accomplishment in light of this thread. It was for me, regardless.

rate up for thottbot links on alla forums lol

I'm now the proud owner of a Netherwing Drake. Seeing as we (Alliance) are outnumbered roughly three to one, I'm stoaked. Though, I was quite surprised how friendly the horde were in the cave.

I was going to get it yesterday, but a mate had a LAN on and ran out of time. Was worth the days wait too.

So after about 5 months away from WoW, I log on to my Rogue today, using a WIP UI, I manage to break even without pressing any buttons for my openers, kite a hunter around his own trap, made 3 players jump off the edge of cliff at LM when I faked it.

Glad to see BGs is still filled with incompetent idiots that can't beat a rusty Rogue that can't use his openers.

Anyways, my Rogue is pretty much shelved at this point, re-rolling a Hunter/Shaman, kind of the opposite of Theo. :D

oh yeah, S2 MH tommorow(today?) and now 4/5 T4. still using GM Blue MH /latros OH and was 67% of kara dps tonight. =P

As Theo said, it requires personal rating which I still can't get my arena team up to that level. :( Still scratching my head on how to improve where they are not hardcore pvp-er..

Seem so far from me the S3 sword, so I guess S2 will fulfill me for quite some time.

Tonight's Kara run went exceptionally well. After cleaning the cobwebs out of our heads on Attumen (three people died, still a one-shot), we one-shot Moroes, Maiden, Opera (Oz), and Curator. Total deaths, including the Attumen fight, came to 5. Unfortunately, we ended up sharding over half of the drops we got, but at least I got a Void Crystal out of it!

After Kara, I started doing 3v3 with a new group of guildies. Setup is me, demon lock, and holy paladin. We started off dropping 3 games straight, but we ended the night at 12-11, which isn't bad considering we faced a group fully decked out in S2 three freaking times. I'm sure that we'll only improve with practice, and since we're all fairly new to Arena, we'll definitely improve once we get our hands on some PvP gear.

gquit and find a better guild. Now, for your own safety.

Ganked hydross after some training on stopping all dots :)

Well, my new guild is finally taking me seriously. Been in the raid for every fight in the last week or so (which is a big deal to me since we have like 7 70 Rogues, and they only take 2 to a raid normally, sometimes 3). Picked up Gloves of the Searing Grip off Al'ar to replace my T4 once 2.3 hits. Got the Vambraces of Ending off Solarian as well. Didn't get any loot out of SSC this week, but the Ring of Lethality dropped (went to a druid who got the ring off Lurker too, the bastard), and champion gloves dropped as well (which went to a shammy).

All of that is nice, but this is the real accomplishment. 1082 DPS on Morogrim Tidewalker. The next highest melee DPS was 892, and the other Rogue only put out 871. The entire night, he never came within 100 DPS of me. I ended the night second in total damage done to a BM hunter, who was 82k damage ahead of me, who is wearing almost nothing but T5 or equivalent gear. That's including all trash, even AoE packs. Number 3 was a T5/epic crafted mage, 700,000 behind me, and then a similarly geared warlock in 4th, who was over 1,000,000 behind me. The other Rogue was over 2,000,000 damage behind me (though he did step out for Leo). As a DPS, you have to perform to get your raid spots, and people seem to be taking notice.

Lurker downed (right after i had to leave for football) We are now officially an SSC/Tk Guild.

Lowly accomplishment in the scheme of the rest of everyone - but I am finally confident in my PvP skills to take on higher levels (I'm only 65...for now) and took on and killed a 68 druid and a 69 mage last night. Next post will be when I ding 70!

Nooble, which fight would you say is easier, alar or solarian?

I'm not nooble, but I can say that Solarian is an absolute noob fest. If you're deadly boss mods are up to date (or big wigs preferably) its easier than Loot Reaver.

Good luck on your eye surgery, nooble.

A pally, A lock and I (all from an old guild, transfered together) started doing arena today. We went 7-3. It rocked.

after being 5k from exalted I saw hourglass last night, and I got it. 1st time I ever saw it drop. right after that got abacus too. granted I should have romeo and dst. but w/e Im shooting for warp spring and dst now.

ZOMG RATE DOWN ARUND!

I had some people camping me for seriously like 2 months. They get bored eventually.

Ding 45 on my rogue >_>

I want my rogue to be my new main though. I'm going to focus hard on leveling him. I have a 70 mage on that server, I've been funding rogue with pretty good gear. I can't afford to go overboard and blow mongoose enchants on level 44 weapons but I have alot of pretty good ones (MH fiery, OH 15 agi, cloak 12 agi, AP on gloves/bracers, stats on chest, leg armor on pants).

Speeds up grinding by a ton. I decided to get back on the leveling guide that I knocked off for many levels. I have some catching up to do, so I've been grinding out 1.5 levels of rest XP. Hitting 56k/hour rested from straight grinding, so under 2 hours/level rested, if I were to straight grind a level on no rest XP it would be about 3.5 hours. Grindings not as bad as everyone thinks, but I'll go back to questing when I catch up to the guide and hopefully beat that pace. Its also a little less brain numbing.
