View Full Version : Rogue PvP question

I'm deciding between making a Barbarian and Halfling. Are throwing boulders and slam big enough reason for Barbarians to be a must? I figure with how broke melee is passing up a backstab might not be worth it even for an interrupt since a backstab could easily be the killing blow anyways. The exp bonus for halfling is a huge plus.
Does anyone regret not making a Barbarian rogue at level 50+?

Some of the most legendary pvp rogues have been Dark Elves (Knukle) and warriors Wood Elves (Xantille). Whichever race you want. With that said, Dwarves can flip and have +5mr.

I was hit by a 588 deadly strike or W/E by a Gream boulder in Tox, he was disced for sure.
Only reason Barb is better IMO is for 1v1 - BOTB is over, I mean there might be another one.
I picked dwarf because ppl I started with were in that area - I'd probably go Barbarian or Gnome if I could change, I don't know. In the end it doesn't change all that much TBH.

I see people say this and I have to ask why? That's like saying play whatever class you want it doesn't matter. You have racial abilities that actually matter in EQ like hide/sneak, stun immunity, slam. Race is a hugely important decision.

IMO, dwarf should get a half second window for an auto critical backstab if executed right after a barrel roll. The PVP videos would be priceless.

Gotta side with boulder, although gay to farm.

Boulder isn't necessary,
Underfoot Bow +Arrows = Boulder Dmg plus longer range.
Velious you have a plethora of bows that will compensate for boulder dmg..
The Strength is nice but I prefer being small.
Gream is lucky he didn't get the Shardwing Arrow/Underfoot Bow kited...33dmg bow/12 dmg arrows> ...>36 dmg Boulders.

Bow and arrows aren't equal damage because archery damage is halved on this server. I hit max like 96 with underfoot now we opposed to high 200's with boulders.

Check your str wearing full resist gear.
Make a barb.
Play barbies with illusion masks if you must.

Farming golem wands is one thing.
Farming 100s of shardwing arrows is another.
