Most rogues are just melee fighters and stealth a gimick. If I play a rogue, I want to pick locks, disarm traps and bribe people :) It's why I never really play them in MMOs. Yep.

When is a Rogue not a Rogue? Answer: When it’s in an MMO. I think Dungeons and Dragons Online is the best Rogue experience out there at the moment. In other MMOs I feel they are stripped of their character and seen only as DPS dealers. Wizards – I just wish the devs would put a bit of effort into changing the look of spells as you level, just changing the name and increase their strengths is a tad disappointing. My favourite classes are the Wizard and the Rogue.

I also loved my segnale in 2moons which is a healer who looks like a dark eldar (Wh40k) and can use deadly aoe at highter lvl. btw, both of thoses game were monster bashing only and really boring but I would loved to see this class in other mmo.

My friends and I then decided that Beastlords had no concept of syntax or full-words; they only spoke in redundant, self-serving acronyms. ;) I never played the Beastlord in EQ, but I still have nightmares of Paludal Caverns fighting Patog Phlarg Fiends (if that’s how either of those was spelled) and hearing “L15 BST LGF PST THX” shouted through the entire zone.
