I've been looking through the rogue page looking for how to make a good dps rogue build. I've seen alot of stuff said about an auto build and maxing poison wep, smoke bomb, and fast reflexes. i was wondering if someone could post a build for it.

Right now im a level 60 rogue. My items are Golden Helm of Intensity, Tanned Darkrun BP, Heroic Gloves of haste, moonshadow legs, quarts dagger, heroic boots, Heroic ammy, 10 per tick energy and hp braces, signet of lir. I dont remember my current build and i cant look, but i have 500-525 damage so i think like 130 strength. 1k hp so maybe like 125 vitality, 55 dex, and 5 focus. My skills are Maxed quick strike, rend, and sneak attack no points in anything else.

OK, I'll bite.

Full disclosure: I'm a lvl 153 rogue so trust me, I know what I'm talking about.

I can see how you can be misguided into playing the rogue intuitively thinking it'll lead you to a DPS build. Clearly, after your 17 levels of extensive rogue experience, you should be one-shotting mobs. This disconnect between reality and your perception is entirely the games fault but fret not; I'm here to help.

First, your stats. Add all your stat points to Vit and Focus; say 90/10. Despite the fact that Str increases your damage and Dex increases your attack, they do not increase your DPS. Only Vit and Focus will do that.

For skills, max out bandage wounds, hide, fast reflexes, and meditate. Why?
Bandage wounds: longer you stay alive the more damage you can inflict. Voila. DPS
Hide: why waste time on simple, one-star mobs? Sneak around them to mobs at least 30 lvls above yourself and unleash the pain of a real DPS, which you'll be by the end of this guide.
Fast reflexes: the faster you react, the faster you hit back. Makes sense, right?
Meditate: extreme focus, zen, inner peace, in the zone, etc. Increases your chance of inflicting the death touch on mobs. Death touch = infinite DPS.

Now let's talk about gear. All this earthstone stuff everyone talks about being the best DPS equipment? Rubbish. Bloodlust helms? Scrap metal. Even the daggers that the rogue quest forces upon you is an effort to lead you astray from performing the DPS task of a rogue. Again I'll break down the equipment you need.

Head: bone is harder and denser than leather. True story. Ditch that flimsy leather helm OTM saddles you with in the beginning. All those cowls that are sold in the castle? Made of leather. Catch my drift? Your noggin will stand up to the abuse better and keep you alive longer. Being alive means you can do your thing you awesome DPS you.

Body, legs, feet: see head above.

Main hand weapon: I'm gonna say it again. Do not let OTM decieve you into thinking the dagger or any other weapon is productive for a DPS. For ultimate damage the bare hands come in second only to the war torch dropped by the Picts near the beach. It will take you 5 seconds to farm one though but really, who has that kind of time?!?! Not you of course, considering you probably wasted 2 minutes looking at the stickied threads in this section only to find out they were a bunch of lies. Just stick with your bare hands and serve up them knuckle sandwiches.

Offhand: not too many options at your level but it doesn't matter. You know why? Cause there's only one thing better than a knuckle sandwich and that's TWO knuckle sandwiches!!!

Necklace, rings, and bracelets: have you ever watched Bruce Lee fight? How about wrestlers? Boxers? MMA? Gladiators? Good. Then I'm sure you've noticed a common theme amongst them all. They don't wear jewelry to weigh them down!!! DPSs needs to be lean, mean, damage-inflicting, killing machines. Save the bling for the women. And believe me, there will be hordes of women once they see the awesomeness of your DPS.

Hope that helps! DPS away!!!

So hes saying no strength, dex, or equipment?

Fast reflexes doesn't help a dps. Although it is pretty great for anything else. Don't use rend. And if you're auto does more than your quick strike, don't use that either. But poison wep and smoke bomb are awesome, you just need a few points in dex.

You have roughly 300 stat points at level 60. I would recommend something similar to the following:
Strength: I remember you having golden blade, so the 75 strength is good, you shouldn't need too much strength anyway.
Dex: 75-100
Focus: None
Vitality: As much as you need. Your current amount of 1k should cut it, if not less.

Skills: depends. You listed that you wanted a dps or auto build so...

Poison weapon
Smoke bomb
Fast reflexes: This is not a dps skill, but it becomes very useful.
Bandage wounds: ? You have some decent health regen, but put as many points as necessary in this.
Sneaky attack: A pretty good skill, but as I said before, if your auto does more than your skills then don't use the skill.

And that's what I got

And sneakyperry is just trolling, don't mind him. Sneaky he just needed help and he's already seen the guides, so stop please, people don't come on forums to get false information

Lol my first post was a joke but here is my current, mostly auto build. 475 str 5 dex 10 focus 240 vit I use smokebomb, sneaky attack, hide, fast reflexes and distract. Poison weapon is annoying because you have to cast it every minute. Also my base dmg is 754 which is pretty low for my lvl. But I like this build alot so I recommend you try it

Hope it helps.
