Grinding with selffounds on a rogue is garbage with update.

Let's say you have a descent dagger and go full dex and BAM you find an awesome club --> you'll do no damage whatsoever because your stat build is wrong.

:thumbsup:


ill wait on some more opinions then
i have swords for 1-35
i also have some alright heavy armor for 1-35

I think it's irrelevant now, since you can leech your way the whole way easy. Guardians are no longer effective as you don't need to heal anymore(some heals are okay but a dedicated healer is pointless). The new update lets you leave the fight at anytime and regen or shrine, including in the middle of doing wells, eps, etc.



and someone that is grinding their way is going to be a hybrid.....sure pal


Lol healers are still very useful
I can only speak for hc and we can't climb without a healer or hybrid
I can't say for sure sc needs em or not I assume it's much easier so maybe they don't need heals

Edited cause my phone wrote beakers instead of healers

ya most hybrids are good.... so u can go longer w/out havin to shrine as much...
but imo, i like rogues now, since now all u have to do is go pure dex, use a ee dagger+ ee scale+dex charm
and u can tank easier due to mass dex, also adds gg dmg to daggers now, so rogue is my new fav feeder class

It is best that you try it out for yourself, but if you are going to attempt solo'ing, you may want to build it to do everything, not just melee or just casting, this is always debateable... but at the end of the day, if you decide to get into a group, you may find your build and speed more enjoyable.

Below is just a basic interpretation of what I currently do...
Feeder: Rogue
Sammy: dagger / caster
Pally: caster / healer
Monk etc = caster / healer / melee (never had HH or Alchy so not sure on those)

Rogue: (Pure Intelligence Build)
Dagger / Staff (EE / HM or Int) ... NOTE: Stat ratio means that you still deal effectively with your weapons without adding
Backup Heals are necessary for solo'ing

Built around:
Casting vs Immune Phys
Melee vs Immune Magic
Healing vs 3x EPs and not enough shrineables
__________

You noted that you have some swords, in this case you would go fighter for the stat "Ratio" to help and pump Int...
