Well i just bought the game a month ago, and i'm currently a lvl 32 rogue, however i have 0 experience in this game so i pretty much just read a bunch of forum topics and then go explore ingame by myself. However, now that i'm not THAT low lvl'd ne more, i felt it might be a good idea to get some input on the direction i'm going, whether it's right, or wrong, or noob, or whatever. I'm thinking about making this character mainly pve because i want it to go to lvl 60 (70 if i end up buying the expansion pack) so i can use this character to get items for my future characters. This is my character as of today when i last logged off.

P.S. another question i don't quite understand is how the honor system works, i went to battleground like 3-4 times just to check it out, and every time i have like a ~## honor on today, i asked ppl wut that means nd they said thats' how many honor i have today, but they never get saved? the lifetime honor is always a -, i don't quite understand wut that means or why i have that?

First, to answer your question about honor: the system records who killed whom during a day and then calculates at the end of the day how much each character won based on various factors. This is why you only get an approximation of your daily honor gain. Then, if you earn any, it is added to your total honor. Since your lifetime honor is zero, I would assume you've never killed anyone worth giving you any honor.
As for your toon. Not much to say about your stuff, I saw you got some useless stats like + spirit but it's ok since you get what you find when you level up. Just wanted to point out that the more important stats will be things like + crit, + hit, + agi, + endu.
About your skills: I'm not enthusiastic about your choice since I found it more useful to focus on one tree at the beginning. for instance, with 23 points in one tree, you could already have some really cool stuff whereas you don't really have at this time.
I'm by no means an expert but here are some further comments on the various trees:
1) Assassination:
- improved evisc is fine,
- ruthlessness is fine as well (especially useful for grinding),
- malice is not a bad skill but I wouldn't take it as a first priority,
- I'd have taken nemesis to generate CPs,
- relentless strikes is good to generate CPs,
- Improved backstab is useful as long as you don't have mutilate if you're not using hemo.
2) Combat:
- not sure that improved gouge is that useful apart from the pvp, would leave it aside for the time being,
- improved sinister strite is fine
- precision is like malice: not a bad thing to have, but not a top priority for me at this stage.
3) Subtlety:
- opportunity is fine
- improved sap is useful but will soon not be needed after the patch,
- initiative however is good to generate CPs,
- ghost strike I like to take less damage (costs only 1 skillpoint as well).
If I were you, I would take the opportunity of the next patch (if we get a free respec, not sure to me) to choose one tree and spec to lvl 20 or so to get some cool stuff, like cold blood or preparation (also remember it's vital to generate CPs and to manage your energy), unless maybe if you go combat all the way (don't know much about this tree). Others could tell you more about that. If we don't get a free respec, see if you want to pay 1 gold for it.

You mentioned in your post that you want to go pve. Combat is definitly the pve tree of talent with abilities to flurry every 2 minutes and take out 2 mobs at once, or when you get adrenalin hit that, evasion, and flurry and clear whole camps =). Read the sticky at the top of the forums if you haven't already....good stuff in there.
