Yes, I know this title is a bit odd for being a post at The Pink Pigtail Inn. Isn’t this supposed to be a mage blog? Or well, at least it’s supposed to be a fake mage blog – a blog, which is listed under the department for mages at the Twisted Nether Wiki, but normally is pretty general (to put it kindly) or unfocused (to be honest) when it comes to the topics.
So why suddenly a post about rogues? Well, I think I’ve mentioned a few times that I actually have a little rogue alt, which I’m secretly in love with and do plan to level up one day, and maybe even try out raiding with, if I get the opportunity. She’s cool and quite different to my mage and gives me a lot of challenges and entertainment. Just the way she does her back kick is great fun to watch.
Arisal’s currently level 45, so it will take a while before she’ll see Karazhan or any other raid instance. But when she gets to 70 I’d really like her to be more in shape than Larísa was when she was in the same situation. I want her to have decent gear and a plan for how to improve it from there.
Lazy as I am I turned to Zakesh, who’s been playing rogue insanely many days. Since he also loves to make gear plans (actually he always has a plan for level 70 for every char he starts, ready from level 1. Planning the gear is half of the fun of the game, according to him) I thought he wouldn’t mind making one for Arisal.
The other day I got the result, so now I’ve got a well thought out to-do-list from level 60 and above. Then the idea came to me that this list is pretty handy for anyone planning to level and gear a rogue. So why not share it? Perhaps there are some other secret rogue-wannabies out there in the same situation as me.
