Rogue Leveling A Step by Step Guide
The foundation for leveling a Rogue quickly and effectively is set when you decide your priority on stats so lets give a quick class specific breakdown. Agility above all else, it strengthens your attack power, your critical strike rate, while improving your armor and dodge slightly. Second priority is Stamina, while you level you will be soloing a fair amount so you need to be able to take a few hits and shrug them off. So where can you get armor and weapons with the right stats? It might mean periodic trips the local auction house. What are you looking for? Any green leather armor or (usable) weapon “of the monkey” (of the monkey offers combined agil and sta, exactly what you need) within 5 levels of your character, higher levels being better.
Every tree can be made to work for leveling but all have unique strengths. Combat shines as a leader in multi target damage, which is great for running instanced dungeons. Assassination is a well rounded build focused on improved attacks, energy efficiency, quick recovery and the improved use of poison. Subtlety is a spec built around getting the drop on enemies with stealth and better lends itself to PvP than to speed leveling, definitely not a tree for those in a hurry, ironic since it speeds up your stealthy movement speed. In a nutshell Combat for dungeon runners and grinders, Assassination for questing and Subtlety is the weakest choice due to its reliance on stealth which slows you down if you over use it.
With a little simple preparation you can get past the obstacles of buying mounts, paying for training and new gear. Sounds hard? It isn’t just learn the skinning skill, and perhaps a second supporting gathering profession and level them casually as you quest. Herbalism is a good complementary skill as is mining, the former being easier to level casually. When deciding where to roll a new character check the server population, you want to have a large enough market to support your gathering, medium population or better. Make sure to sell your wares in full stacks, and to undercut the competition, but only by a tiny amount. Ensure a quick sale without starting a full on price war.
All of these are valid ways to gain XP(experience points), and for an enjoyable and quick leveling experience you shouldn’t stick to just one method. When I enter a zone on a new character the first thing I do is find a quest hub, typically the biggest town in the area that you are welcome in. Gather all the quests in the town quickly and then start sorting through them, drop the ones that want you to be a delivery boy unless you really think you would enjoy them or they lead to the next quest hub. Next determine which ones you are most likely to get done. Personally I hate quests where you need to gather a ton of items, they take quite a while and tend to be overly dangerous. I suggest simply taking “bounty hunter” type missions, kill X number of bad guys here and return for a reward, these tend to offer the best XP to time ratio.
Dungeons are good XP, queue up for them when you need a break from solo-questing just realize that as a damage dealing character you will have a rather long wait time, so keep questing while you wait. Grinding, the basic leveling tactic typically is how I finish up a zone, once you have done the quests you chose, find an out of the way spot with monsters that appear green or yellow in difficulty and kill away. Once you are content that you have out leveled (Ex: they are too easy) them move on to the next quest hub. Battlegrounds offer an interesting change of place, but the overall experience is rather low compared to other methods. Que up when you reach the higher levels in each bracket for the most fun, for example join at 18-19 in the 10-19 bracket etc. PvPing helps hone your skill with your class so it should never be entirely overlooked.
So you’ve wrapped things up in your current town and are ready to move on and it’s unclear where to go next. It’s usually fairly simple, just follow the road down into the next zone but if you can’t find your way just ask. Other players love to show off how much they know, give them the chance to do so and you’ll be surprised at what little pearls of wisdom you can pick up, just take it all with a grain of salt. Supposing you can’t find the way even after asking around in general chat then your next move is to head over to a capitol city and ask around. Hanging out in a capitol city is also a good way to find a helpful guild. Just remember when you are moving to the next zone not to get in over your head. Fighting enemies that are at red and orange difficulty levels leads to getting killed and wasting time, avoid doing it like the plague.
