I think the other player wont be Knocked down when you are using desperate =P..
better go stealth with desperate, go his back, 1 prick, 1 mortal and death.. he wont be able to attack you :). (Im lv 68 rogue dagger and i do that to a blader of my lvl and no one survive!)

what the **** are you talking? :D

sure i can knockdown him with my crossbow and while he is on the ground i change to daggers use Desperate and use mortalwounds on him while he is on ground and then in the end screw or prick. depends how much hp he has and how many criticals u made.

(i'm level 90 rogue)

and btw, stealth and invisible shit is for cowards in my honest opinion

In pvp is not coward, maybe is incorrect, but not coward. Thats the main reason i dont pvp as much as i job, rogues are meant to use stealth, specially using dagger skills.

daggars are more effective in pvp. But if your jobbing, use both because its a lot easier to just sit and shoot npc thieves or npc hunters instead of chasing after all of them

dude, how can stealth be coward or incorrect? =S...

As nukers can use snow, i cna use stealth ¬¬.. in my case im nto cleric so i dont have a recovery division or bless to protect me, so if i dont use desperate i got raped easy by a full str...

Stealth is like your advantage when you loose your 75% of defense.. Anyway we shouldnt be talking about this.. the guy jsut asked about which is better and i stay in my opinion BOTH are good.

Cya..

Well, he does make a good point about being a coward, even though coward might not be the word that really captures his meanings. What's the whole point of Pvp :? I guess it's to find out who's stronger and to have some fun. It's a bit lame to use stealth in pvp, even though it's one the skills of a rogue. Offcourse outside pvp there ain't a damn thing that makes a rogue a coward when using stealth, that's just part of the game.

By the way, this comes from another rogue.

its not being a coward to use stealth,
its a tactical choice why play by other people rules if it means you will lose not much insentive there is there?
if you dont like it why dont you make a tactical choice and invest in some stealth detect skills or buy those pots that detect stealth
or would it hert you to actuly use your brain in a fight instead of brute force?

its like saying nukers are cowards for using nukes it just make sense.
Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools talk because they have to say something.

Daggers aren't that good in pvp.. they are only good if they can kill fast..
Sometimes xbow can save your live, the kb and kd skills are awesome :)


Also, in pvp, keep your cleric rod and shield out, then you keep healing yourself for a while, and when you think it's time to get your xbow out, you just bind him>run away>xtreme xbow>couple of skills > dead ;D
