Happy HB user, years now on and off. Now that I got that out of the way. What is the with the hell that is trying to level up a Rogue. OMGWTFWTH AOCMAOERNVaeivnaosdfnvadfpov!!!!! LOL...and if this hasn't been your experience then disregard and feel free to point and laugh, but omg I hate Rogues. I haven't resorted to it in quite some time, but Im considering just grinding all the way to 100. For me... Rogues + Questing = big steamy pile of horse poo poo.
I have leveled several Rogues over the past couple of years. Usually level as combat spec with little to no trouble. You may get into trouble in a spot or two where the toon cant power through a group or overpowered character and you need to take over by hand but I have found that to be true of any class at certain stages in the game. I have a rogue at lvl 92 right now who is just humming along in WOD without issue. I check in on him every hour or so. If you have access to it then put your toon in heirloom gear. This should level them faster (at least to 85) and will guarantee that they can power through most of the tough spots with a minimal need for interaction. for leveling I just use Singular as the routine. Gets the job done with little fuss.
I levelled a rogue find with SUB using Kicks levelling profiles without a problem really, I levelled it to 90 then used pet battles to level from 90-100.
It could just be simple bad luck with my server the last few nights I suppose, buggy or whatever. Night 1 = 1-9 Night 2 = 9-12 Night 3 = 12-16 lol Never had results like this ever...Im gunna chalk it up as a fluke I guess and just keep at it
I find cloth/leather classes level slower to start and faster as they get higher leveled and more powerful. Mail/plate wearers level faster to begin with as they can survive more. So long as I don't have to play them manually I don't mind the extra time.
I leveled a combat rogue, which is much easier since it's easier to find weapons for it, thus keeping dps constant. When I tried assassination I found I was outleveling daggers by up to 5 levels before finding a replacement.
No issues at all leveling my rogue. I'm playing SUB spec and it's going great! High single target DPS and above average multi target dps. Doesn't get much better than this
