Default The things Rogues actually do

Hi all,

I do not have a rogue, and I'm wondering what do they actually do with their time in EQ. Here are my (mis)conceptions. Kindly educate me.
  1. Stab stuff
  2. Can't tank past level 20'ish, even with great gear (and then only maybe to level 50)
  3. Literally assassinate level <=46 humanoids once they're level 60 (but can they loot those instakill corpses?)
  4. Use some kind of auto-attack-off-then-hide hotbutton macro to lower their threat? (Does this work?)
  5. Scout dungeons (and planes?)
  6. Only 1 or 2 mobs in the whole game can see through their sneak+hide (lguk assassin?)
  7. Drag corpses, except in Velious where somehow corpse dragging results in aggro
  8. Acquire a 40% epic haste weapon relatively cheaply / easily compared to, say, the warrior or mage epics
  9. Buy and sell from/to KOS merchants
  10. Pickpocket NPCs during fights (which reduces loot flow to rest of group, right?)
  11. Probably never use poisons because they're expensive garbage
  12. Typically have to juggle, bard-style, a primary weapon with a backstab weapon
  13. Explore most dungeons without fear!
  14. Die alone if they're in trouble, like warriors, rangers, pallies, but unlike bards and FD classes.
