I tried starting one last night, started at 10 got to 16, they’re actually quite boring. Even the healing on them is boring, middle of a fight, say to the mob, hang on a minute just got to drink this potion.
In the earlier days rogues were my favourite class especially for BGs. When they introduced Outlaw they went down hill. Before that I used to mix skills found in subtlety with skills found in assassination.
The other thing is if you solo you know that world bosses will be hard as a lot of your incapacitating skills won’t work on them.
I did actually play an outlaw once it was ok, but found on some of the minor world bosses I’d have to use blind so that I could heal up a bit before being able to start the fight again.
