are hybrid rogues anygood?
Like healer/something else idk wat to call it.
I will throw my unsolicited two cents in on this.
I was tired of getting hung out to dry at level 45+ and having to wait for a day or two to finish my mq. I elected to read, pm questions, etc on a hybrid rogue.
I have made two melee/healer rogues. I started to disagree with the comments on cost as I have only bought a couple of items to finish him out; however, it occurred to me how much my longstanding gear did actually cost.
I make mine all intelligence. At level 71, everything is base except intel, as long as my role is that of melee/heal. If I get hung out, I can change up gear. I have tested him out in the arena at level 64 or 65. I was able to do anywhere from 9-14 chains, which is not outstanding at that level but remember I am all intel build.
I estimate the total value of all the gear I have to effectively use the Hybrid Rogue is around 12k on the low side. That would include every piece of armor, sword, staff, and charm used from 1-71.
Now, you might get by with a lot less. Another reason I made this build is I already had 95% of the gear. I could kick myself in the arse for not doing it much sooner.
I can only crit around 1100 with average heals of 480 or so the last 5 levels. They are truly fun if geared and played correctly.
