This is gonna be a super quick one cause we’re heading out to see if we can adopt a third kittie… named Fred. Where do people get these names, anyway?
EDIT: We ended up not getting Fred. But we DID get a new cat to add to our first two. So Molly and Shadow have a new brother that, so far, they are having a REAL hard time getting adjusted to. Say hello to our new furry friend BooBoo (seriously… WHERE do people come up with these names? I hereby redub thee Boo…
So, wife and I are playing Rogues, from 1 on up, she has soloed to 18 currently doing all the Darkshore, Loch Modan and Westfall stuff. Cassie has been having a ball.
As the person who has played WoW all this time, my wife, understandably, turns to me for answers to her questions. But as a newbie Rogue myself, the questions come, and I got nuttin.
For example… “I was using Thrown Weapons, and you had me train Bows and Guns. I’ve been using Bows now and it feels like I have to get closer to hit an enemy than I did with Thrown Weapons. Do Thrown Weapons have a longer range?”
“Uhhh…. I dunno?”
The answer, in fact, after digging, was that for a Rogue, each means of drawing an opponent has the same range. But it’s not as long a range as a Hunters’ Shoot ability. Go figure. Guess that’s why ranged weapons don’t list a range, cause the distance is different for each class that can use them. The range is tied to the class.
EDIT: And thanks to comments from Ontherocks and Doomilias, I now know that Rogues get an ability eventually called Deadly Throw that makes having the Thrown Weapon skill leveled a good thing. Thanks guys! End EDIT.
Anyway, enough BSing, the point is that Daak sent me a couple links to some great Rogue resources on the ‘net, and I am dutifully sharing them with the three of you that might not already know about them
First is Roguespot, a pretty kickass website from what I’ve seen. And as they have A View From Behinds‘ blog syndicated, I imagine they are massively famous and everyone already knew about them.
The other site is Shadow Panthers’ page, a whole ton of lists of gear for Rogues for every situation… PVP, twinks at all ranges, etc. I only skimmed the surface, before realizing it’s way too high level for me to worry about :).
See ya tommorow happy stalkers!
