Rogues on the other hand can farm very effectively solo, and I know quite a few of them who do so and make quite a bit money doing it.
FYI, I've never tried a 4-offensive skill build. I do pvp, flagging, pve tombs and pve elites all quite often, so I need a build that allows me to switch between those different tasks on a regular basis. So even though I have 5 skills I run with, only 3 of them are offensive. Obviously that limits me a bit.
But still back to the original point, we have seen two videos: one of a rogue doing it solo and one of a mage doing it solo. So if we had a timed run leaderboard for that, who would win? Seems like the rogue did it twice as quick. Which was my point in the first place.
We all have a fixed amount of time we play the game, and in that time rogues can accomplish a lot more in PvE than mages or warriors can. They can get more kills, farm for more items, finish more dungeons, etc. For a sorcerer or warrior to compete on the leaderboards with a rogue, we would have to play more hours. And for us to compete on the timed runs leaderboards, we would have to team up with rogues in a party. On the other hand, a full party of all rogues will do just fine in timed runs. Try that with a full team of mages -- not so successful.
