Rogues need gear to be really successful and as your first toon they will be difficult to make money on to gear.

The only piece of gear you vitally need as a rogue is Ragebringer, and even then it's mostly because people will make fun of you after a certain point if you don't. And while you will need it eventually, you can get by for a long time without it. There are some cheap piercers with high primary damage numbers that you can use in the meantime.
In general, even with classes that need gear (most melee) you can prosper with one as your main if you spend your time in dungeons, grouping. Incidental cash items will drop and that stuff adds up. My main is an SK and he's got some halfway decent gear acquired in various ways, and I never did make a farming character.
"True newbie" charity is also a real thing here - if people catch wind of the fact that you're totally new to the server, and you don't make a big deal out of begging for stuff, you'll probably get some random things from kind folks sooner or later. You can get yourself kickstarted as basically any class that way.
