Try out both at low lv and find which one suits you

xbow, more utility in parties, plus you already have tons of dagger nubs out there, your gear will be more expensive.

i like the 50%++++++ chance of knockback and knockdown
i think it goes up to like 70% chance.
that and range with nice damage is crazy.
daggers has like 30% stun with one skill, and another one with 10% stun lol.
and ur up close too, ouch.

I'd pick crossbow. The only good rogue IMO is crossbow. Without the range they would just be like any other close range build doing high damage, except with a 15 second pot delay. The bow helps to minimize taking damage.

With a wolf, i say Daggers are the way to go.
Currently, i send my little Psycho Rambo Dog (Who i still wub btw

) to go tank for me.
When he grabs their attention, i go in with Dagger Dessperate and can own mobs which are up to ~8 lvls above me. With Crit and luck, even higher.
At 35, i was soloing Uijis. O yeah, i could only take 1 at a time. N i had to be lucky, but i was still doing it.

yea daggers would've died in 2 hits, close combat would make them slow down for the pots to catch up, and if you send a wolf youll have to pot it over and over every couple of monsters.

Im a lvl 52 dagger rogue, and I love it.
Can't wait to get lvl 60 combo. And lvl 80 combo ( Butterfly blow :o )
And for a lvl 52 dagger with npc gear and npc weapon to crit 24k+ on a pt penon, aint that pretty allright? My friend is a lvl 58 rogue xbow, and i do more dmg than him. Daggers ftw!

hehe np hun
as in for the weapon thingy, i really love rogues using xbows, long range, nice damage. In my humble opinion, I think (for euro chars) melee classes are for tanks, but i've also seen good rogues with daggers dealing good damage tho, so it's up to you.
In my guild there are two rogues (both with xbows) and they do really good in parties and pvp too.

Use both.
Solo: use Xbow in normal mobs, so you can 1-2 hits, with Party mobs & Giants start with Xbow and switch to daggers in order to shorten the figth (daggers kill fastest than xbow). Avoid Extreme in areas with same or higher lvl aggro mobs.
In Party: if the party is well balanced and have at least 2 warrios, you better use extreme crossbow and stick to Xbow, anthing else do same as solo hunting.
Extreme dagger is allmost useless in hunt, save it to pvp.
Salu2.

Daggers for life. Theres nothing like getting close enough to your target and slitting their throat. Its more personal that way.
