New rogue

[Sietzer]

What is a good set up for a rogue, I want a Dark Elf rogue,Who can pick and all roguely things, any help please

[Edaarin]

Need to be more specific with what you want...

Viable choices include, but are not limited to, combinations of the following:

Locksmith
Archer
Brawler
Two weapon user
E-waving hunter
Two handed weapons
More efficient warrior
A little bit of everything

In any case, if memory serves correctly, your core training should include:

2x weapon type of choice
1x armor (at least up to 35 ranks, maybe more depending on how heavy you want)
2x pick/disarm
1x perception
Spells to 404
1x PT
2x hiding
1x CM
25 ranks of climb/swim by level 66

Probably want to include 2x perception and 2x ambush Edaarin.

Lots of training methods and ideas discussed in the rogue folder of these boards.

The most recent is shown below. I'm sure you'll be able to find some ideas of viable training paths.

Oops, forgot ambushing...guess that's what happens when you stop playing for awhile...but I'd argue that you can get by with 1x perception, provided you pick up 402.

Anyway if this is going to be a main character, what I would probably do is gear it more towards a combat rogue and then use your FIXSKILLS in a year when you're a more reasonable level to tweak it to whatever style you want.
