So this is me.
Been playing maybe a month or so, entirely solo with the odd run-through from the high-level friend who dragged me into this (also why I'm playing on US servers, lag's not so bad). My theorycraft is not so good, cos I'm lazy, but it's not like I'm going to be playing it other than for kicks.
I've also spent the past day or so farming eggs in Eversong, as they seem to be rather popular at the minute.

We don't quest, we just run instances with triple XP linked accounts so we got good gear and level fast, not uncommon for 2 dings each per run.
Alex C:
I know you just said you're not into theorycrafting much, but if you're going to use Sinister Strike as your primary attack, I'd advise against using daggers, although the one you have now is so much better than quest reward replacements that it's not a big deal for now (heck, it's better than my sword). To make a long story short, a sword/mace will do more damage on a Sinister Strike than a dagger will even if the DPS and weapon speeds are otherwise identical. It's due to the way attack power is calculated and while it sounds counterintuitive, it beats the hell out of the old way of calculating things. On the bright side, weapon speed doesn't matter quite as much as it used to since the buffs to poisons means that faster weapons are a lot more competitive than they used to be; faster weapons mean more poison procs, and good lord, do poisons kick ass now. Still, I'd suggest selecting weapons based on DPS, weapon type, stats and then speed while leveling.
Anyway, here's the rogue I recently rolled on the Grizzly Hills server (which is actually a "fresh" server; it's roughly a month old now and doesn't allowe transfers.) Intruder

Mace rogues went from stunlock beasts to fucking dire.
Swords for potential instagibbage with sword specialisation.
Alex C:
I skipped weapon specializations because I'm almost exclusively limiting myself to self-crafted items and quest rewards while reinvesting all my cash into AH speculation. I love sword spec as much as the next guy, but it wouldn't have done me much good considering I've spent as much time with a mace 'n' dagger combo as I have with a sword. My current build will net me 11% more avoidance over a raw DPS build, which is pretty damn nice for solo work; it's not like I'm hurting for damage thanks to poisons and Nightscape armor anyway. Once I hit 80 I'll likely change my ways, but for now, I'm happy with my almost shockingly durable rogue.
