Elf rogue a bad choice?

[Jorvaar]

I've been debating which class I'd like to dig into on green for a while now and have finally landed on rogue. My question pertains to which race to go with. I really like half elf and wood elf but it seems stats favor barbarian and dwarf.

If I go with an elf will the lack of strength hinder me too much in terms of my damage output, or is it fairly easy to make it up with gear?
