Fastest leveling for Rogue

Post by Mefra »

Hey guys,

Wondering which weapon would be the fastest after level 50-60 for leveling, dagger or xbow?

Oh yeah, one more question. Is it true that stealth doesn't even work anymore (something about pk2)? Than what's the point of a rogue...

Xbow ofc. It saves so much time, because instead of running up to it, you can just sit back and shoot from a big range.

xbow, for all the reasons stated above.

and stealth does work, but not 100% of the time. some people have pk2 edits to see invis and stealth players. stealth works 60-85% of the time depending on your server.

As everybody else already said, xbow is way fastest.

You have the range and you still hit ALOT with xbow extreme on you should be able to one or two hit mobs :)
Dubious ・ Lvl 101 ・ STR Archer ・ jSRO-R ・ active
PillowFight ・ Lvl 69 ・ STR Archer ・ jSRO-R ・ inactive
Aggrobatic ・ Lvl 101 ・ Warrior / Cleric ・ jSRO-R ・ inactive

Xbow definately, for normal mobs use Crossbow Extreme.
You can turn off CE for party mobs or giants, you can kill those with ease with knockback/down, especially if you're Rogue/Cleric (what's your subclass?)

rogue bard is mainly for grinding,
it can party as well but then its severely dependant on clerics in the pt.

it is the fastest if you go by the amount of time used to farm and actually lvl(solo)
since you might only need xbow for the build, with daggers its more of a hit and run build
you can battle and (depending on the mob)1hit kill monsters 4 lvls above your own with CE and a good suit making you one of the fastest soloers.


otherwise i'd stay rogue cleric and farm about 2x, for a huge solo potential
and the party features.
true you cant really get to a warriors lvl of partying since you cant really buff others unless you play the str cleric role.

you can lure with xbow or kill with daggers in a spot with high spawn.
and if no party wants you in their team, you can solo hard

I know Rogue/Cleric can be good, but it depends a lot on weapon switching and I really hate that. I think the hit and run style suits a rogue way better. Even though a cleric sub has a lot to offer on paper, in reality, I really don't like it. Offcourse I'm not saying it's bad, it's probably better than bard for most things, but for me speed is crucial for a rogue.
