Rouges are good up to level 50. Right now rouges are broken at level 50 and are kind of pitiful. Rouges are the easiest kill I have in PvP. A few of my friends went rouge and now are making alt characters because they are so bad right now in pvp. Hopefully they will fix this, but i would not recommend a rouge at this time.
Yep, I agree with this statement. I knew this going in though from reaching 42 in beta and friends in alpha. Most rogue damage just doesn't scale well enough. Very few of the souls have any way to counter healing of any sort. We can make it 10-20% less effective, but we need to make it 80% less effective for our current level of DPS to get through the healing since most rogues are sustained DPS.
The only burst DPS rogue build is the sab. But that soul was nerfed way too much too early. I knew it would be too and it sucks. It's still not bad when coordinating with another sab to take down someone. If you are on vent with another sab, you both load up 5 charges and blow at the same time you will insta kill just about anyone out there.
Still, it takes two people coordinating to kill one as a rogue. There are a couple of ways to get them solo 1v1, with a couple of sab strats I made above, but they rely on critting just the right amount sometimes. Otherwise they are going to heal faster and kick your butt before you can do anything.
Is there a cool Cleric Ranged DPS build?
How will my E8400 @ 3.6 and HD4870 handle this game? Playable? Barely playable? Decent?

Inquisitor has massive ranged damage potential I believe, Purifier also to a degree?

Should be just fine on default settings. Default settings are just as gorgeous as maxed settings.
Purifier is a support/healing class. It has ONE nuke in the base skills. The rest is all heals/buffs/support.
Also, while the massive amounts of AoE damage are nice, it's not really terribly useful in pvp.
I turn my public grouping off. I was closing rifts in Silverwood (noob zone) and lvl 50's kept coming in and closing the rifts and joining my public groups. Probably for their guild quests and such.
See, I don't understand why'd you do that. Does it really matter, as long as they're helping? It's the same end result.
The only time I'd ever consider turning that off is if I noticed people joining my group to get credit for a kill, but not helping and running along, only to leave the party once they got the credit. But I've not seen that at all yet and it would have to happen quite a bit before I'd get annoyed enough about it.
Erm... you may want to check real hard. A lot of quest mobs you don't have to be in a group to get kill credit for. Something I learned along the way - if you put some DPS on the mob even if it's already been tagged (as in really put in effort, not just one shot), often times you'll get quest credit for it.
Well, I've tried that a couple of times but I've not gotten credit. Or maybe that was on the quest bosses that needed to be looted for something. I can't remember.
I do wish there was more variety in the quests though. I'm guessing 75% of the quests so far are collect 10 of this or kill 12 of that. I'm also starting to get annoyed by getting a batch of quests and going to an area to complete them, turning them in, and then getting 3 or 4 more quests that make me go right back to basically the same area to kill more stuff. Oh well, it is what it is.

Warrior I find them lacking in the fun factor, same with Rogue which is the class I NEVER play in RPGs.
