Until level 30, Marksman with a few points in Ranger kills faster while still retaining a great tank pet, and MM has good survivability in many situations even if their pet dies. You have enough mobility to kite elites to death on your own.
Wait, people use a pet with MM? :P Can't say I miss having one, especially once you get Close Quarters Combat.
(Probably doesn't help that I roll around all the time with the PvP soul as my third.)

So, decided that altitis needs to be sated, so rolled some new ones.
Then decided that my sab rogue with a bard second role is just silly fun.
I can't decide if I"m doing the right thing in dungeons though as support. I just....toss up buffs, then dps. Not really anything else to do, seems like a weird role.
that being said, need my rogue to get into the guild! Also, need to know where we're going, unless we're staying on faeblight, then woot or something.

Well, PvP frustrates me in this game, but I can honestly say this past weekend was the first time I've actually been mad about this game, and it wasn't because of PvP. I was mad because I joined a random T2 (DSM) as support mage and went chloro. Now, in fairness, I didn't realize or even really care to find out that Archon is the support role for mages.
Nonetheless, we're trucking along down the first boss and we're headed to the second boss. I think we may have wiped once due to the tank (rogue) teleporting to a mob on a bridge from another bridge and falling to the ground below. Anyway, other than that the run was going smooth so far. We clear up to the second boss, then suddenly I'm kicked from the group. No explanation given, just booted.
I sent a whisper to the cleric healer since he/she seemed to be on the up and up and was told that he/she voted not to kick me, but the reason for the kick was because I was only pulling 100-200 DPS. Well, I'd been 50 for a week and the only decent gear I had was some epics that Eniia crafted me. I did have enough gear for T2s though, and the fact that everyone else in the group was decked in full epics means they could have picked up the little bit of slack I may have made.
What pissed me off is that there was no explanation as to why I was kicked. There was no indication that I was doing poorly. Nothing along the lines of "Pick up your DPS" or "Switch specs" or "Go respec", nothing, just a boot. That pissed me off. Doesn't help that the tank is apparently from a guild that I guess we're what, allied with or something? I dunno.

The above post is why I have great contempt for DPS meters. You're rated by your numbers and sometimes that's it. My brother occasionally runs a chloro spec to help me heal if things are dicey, say a rogue tank or an under-geared tank that is just taking too much damage to handle. It's a nice thing that I appreciate in RIFT, that a cleric can get some backup when things are rough.
Now, admittedly, with 100-200 DPS you are almost certainly not going to get past the 4 crystal room boss.
He instakills your whole party if you don't DPS him down fast enough when he goes to each crystal.
However you could've crossed that bridge when you got there. Our party must've wiped four times on that boss. The first time we had no idea what happened, the second time we figured out what happened, but it took us two more spec-switches to find the setup that could handle it. Since the damage taken by the tank was light, I went full single target DPS inquisition cleric, my brother took over main heals (and I backed him with breath of life sentinel 0 spec heals) when the adds came. Went smoothly with that setup.
Even though it took us many deaths to get through what many consider a very difficult dungeon, I consider that a good group. People with the patience and consideration to keep trying when things look pretty bleak. After that boss the rest was pretty much a cakewalk.
We had similar difficulties on a first group run of Darkening Deeps' Scarn, but once someone in the group showed us the pie-running method we killed it the next fight with no casualties (and again later, with no deaths. )
Would you say the raids are incredibly difficult or is it just that four times the people means four times the potential of having a really inept screwup? :x

The thing about it is that chloro is a spec I rarely play and only did it since the queue stuck me as support. Like I said, I realize now that Archon is the mage support role, but my other specs are all DPS which is why I got upset. If they had just fucking said anything then I would have switched to one of my DPS specs. The tank and the healer were both geared enough that we probably would have blown through there w/ 3 DPS mages, and I know I can get at least 500ish DPS in my primary spec. It's nothing amazing, but it probably would have sufficed for that run.
The thing is, I still really enjoy Rift because I've been playing casually. I was never a hardcore raider in WoW, but I did dig into it deep enough to find out the top specs/gear/rotations and whatnot. I'd take the time to get best in slot items, proper enchants, rotations, specs...what I'm getting at is that even though I wasn't a hardcore raider, I was putting in enough energy that I probably could have been if I hadn't been so antisocial. When I started playing Rift I told myself I was just going to play the game to play it, and not bother with all of the min/maxing crap.
Up until that one run that had been enough to get me through, and it's why I'm still playing the game 3 months later. I guess it just hit me hard this time because up until that point it seemed like most of the other people playing were also playing somewhat similar, or in this case, they were at least polite about it. I thought that I'd left the WoW community type of players back in WoW.
Of course it wasn't all doom and gloom. Finished off a lot of artifact sets this weekend, picked up about 3 pieces of gear from experts and had a bunch of nice gear crafted for me by Eniia.

Personally I'd appreciate it if spots in the raids would open up to people who haven't been on the raid before, especially when we're talking about our own guild. You know, spread the wealth around and all.
edit: something in the title about raid times and days would probably get a better turnout for us. Alternatively, putting it in the guild MOTD.
Well i've talked with Fevor and with The Black Company and they both can bring something like 5-8 people from my understanding so we have room in the raid for TSM as well. I'm hosting it after all :P

Wow, I like this game. It got me to cancel WoW. I'll beg for friends in the chat channel real soon-like.
So, is it a better idea to throw points into just one soul and then pick better stuff from the other two? Or is there really no general rule?
I've just been taking what I like, but usually focusing on one or two souls and just putting enough points into the third if it has something I want
Like I'm level a 31 mage and I've got most of my points in Necromancer and Warlock, but 6 points in Elementalist because it unlocks a spell to let me regen my mana really quickly out of combat
This works fine for leveling up but I guess in some dungeons you might want to focus more in one tree if you're trying to fill a certain role

Ha, that's almost exactly my build too. I just noticed the Necro and Warlock trees were giving me very similar things so maybe focusing completely on one till you get the good abilities was the way to go.

You can get some really interesting combos from some souls, but generally its good to mix and match like souls together. It really depends on if you want that 51 point skill or not. Sometimes its really effective to go deep into the tree.
Case in point: I have two main rogue builds. One is my assassin build, wherein I go all the way down the Assassin tree for Serpent Strike, then put 11 points into Nightblade for the 15% DMG boost from finishers and combopoint abilities, and 4 more points in... well, I can't remember right now but its something else.
My second build is a Riftstalker/Bard combo, where both are pretty even at around 25-30 points. This gets me deep enough in Riftstalker for the absorption abilities and shift bonuses, and deep enough in Bard for the heal and stat boosts. With enough focus I can sit on enemies for quite a while by myself. My DPS suffers a bit, but I'm able to withstand a lot of punishment.

Sup Dys. I need to rework my roles, but after some experimentation I've found that I really enjoy 51pt pyro, even though the 51pt talent is somewhat useless. It gives me big numbers though lol. Need to buy another spec for stormcaller. So expensive though. Only have 3 roles atm, need to finish off those last 2.

I ended up going more heavily into necro first for the tanking pet and now most of my points are currently going into warlock

I found this video very helpful. Once you're to 13, you can spec however you want, but this makes it easy to get to 13 without too much hassle. Maybe it can be added to the OP to help people who are new.
Finally switched over from my ranger build to a sab build. It felt weird at first, but my god the aoe dps is lovely.
44sab/20sin/2rang
I am seriously loving this build. Only 19 so far, but sab is loads of fun. Keep getting myself murdered on rifts though, since a lot of the unstable phases have big groups, and 5 charge Unstable (I think that's the aoe charge) + the 2 aoe bombs = hahaha soooo much aggro.
Harrower is a cool dude and not afraid of anything. Thanks for the help, man.
I find myself still rolling Necro/Lock most of the time, but I whip out the Ele/Lock for single elites/strong enemies. Even though I've got the Greater pets, my Rock seems to die too fast; maybe I need to use that spell that heals him every now and then...

Now if only I had some Toughness gear.
One of the things you will notice when mixing souls is that pretty much all the first 10 points (or two tiers of talents) are straight-up buffs to all dps, healing, or armor. So a lot of the reasons people go into the other two trees is to get those solid 5%/10% increases that aren't usually there deep into the tree. A lot of late tree stuff is cool, but usually situational (like pvp utility).
this is a game where there are almost too many spells, so UNLIKE WoW where you wanted to get the 21 point talent/spell, you are (most of the time) looking at stacking across the board increases.

Isnt that kind of overkill for mana regen abilities, heck with Necro alone you shouldnt need to have any other mana regen abilities, sap the pet then soul rend. With Warlock you can eat your own life then regen it or soul rend.

yeah it is probably hells of redundancy but it lets me regen quickly out of combat as well life tap in combat if I need it, but I prefer not to steal my pet's health since I have it tanking (unless I'm in a dungeon then who cares)
I'm never really in a situation where I need to life tap or sap the pet when I'm soloing, everything either dies and then I recharge or it smushes me
Personally if you're lvl 50 and you're going to tank as a rogue going 51 riftstalker is a must.
half riftstalker and half some other soul is fine if you're soloing mobs out in the world I think but for expert dungeon and raid tanking I dont think it works as well as 51pts.
Right now i'm 51RS/8BD/7RNG This is the normal Rogue tank dodge build and with it I tank a ton of things :P
I also prefer 51RS/8BD/7RNG instead of 51RS/8BRD/7RNG cause it gives me another cool down with the blade dancer treee, Side Steps (which lets me dodge so many things)
There isn't much pressure since different roles are cheap to buy and the respecs dont cost very much. The advice I was given when starting out was "Pick two trees, one primary and one secondary. Put all the points you can into the primary, the secondary tree gets the "overflow points" that you can't put into that tree as you level."

That puzzle is a huge pain and I have ended up skipping it every time. With the advent of blue rewards for random queue along with general instance loot, the rewards for a single puzzle end up fairing rather poorly. Anything that takes more than 30 minutes is basically a wash or a loss to me now.

Had a lovely experience today running my first expert dungeon. I forget the name of it - the dwarvish gardens one.
Anyway, I think I managed to die once on every boss except the giant tree who summons mushrooms, but the beautiful thing was that my teammates didn't mind, and congratulated me on the bizaare amount of loot that flowed my way. If this was any other MMO I would have expected to have been vote kicked after the first death, if not before.
So, it's nice to actually have some sense of community.
