Why aren't rogues top DPS?

Any luck coming up with that magical mob name or your parses yet? Take your time, I know it's asking a lot.

Still need your hand held in a game you've been playing 12 years? Go figure something out for yourself.

No thank you sir, I do quite fine in game. Also, I don't think there is a single person here that has played Everquest for 12 straight years.

I'm sorry that you can't back up your claims but if it makes you feel any better, nobody was impressed anyway.

I remember Shewz now. He's the one that came here complaining when he lost his King camp after having to zone 3-4 times while trying to charm a single Shaman. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Anyone ever wish rogues were more like thieves in dnd games like baldurs gate? Where they are critical for detecting/disarming traps, picking locks etc. instead of basically being walking dagger dps machines like they are in eq?


also, anyone else cringe a little every time they read the word "epeen", by far my least favorite internet slang word

I can think of 2 situations a rogue plays this role:

1. Pickpocketing for Ragebringer
2. Disarming SSRA Traps

Um... how is this a comparison?

Rogues/monks do 25-36dps compared to the pet's 65.

36 x 2 = 72

Y'all are retarded, I do like 2-3 times more dps than any rogue or monk.

You can see now why I called BS in his entire claim. Thanks for helping me prove my point.

Also, the parse for the rogue has to be done in the same zone with the same mobs, for the same length of time (we're talking entire raids worth of parses), with the same buffs on the player and same debuffs on the mob but we don't even have to get in to that now.

Can this specific pet be found in more than one zone cause I see level 50 rogues all over the place.

For that particular clear no melee got higher than 28, that's still more than 2x higher so the claim stands. Either way, enchanter is highest dps in game...which is all we've been saying for the past few pages..meanwhile you've just been knit picking.

It was so money when the Amygdalan Knights procced harm touch. Enchanters raped so hard.
