One or Both

I am a rogue and I do not know whether to choose xbow or daggers :banghead:

... so I would like to choose both. But I am not sure if this would be smart, so I am just looking for other's opinions on the matter.

I have a lvl 42 rogue and I have both.. Daggers hit higher and have a better crit. but when grinding at higher monsters i use xbow for knock back and knock down.. I would go with both.... It just gives you options when training

Exactly, and if you can only do one, id do crossbow.
Afterall you can always farm later and get daggers, so id choose crossbow to lvl up, hope this helps.

I am both xbow and daggers, however so I have enough SP to 0 gap, I leave my dagger skills just a few levels behind. This way I can grind effectively with full farmed xbow skills. I am not really pvp'ing or jobbing or doing anything where I need daggers..So right now this is working out great.

i just used a calculator and if i get all the good skills (excluding poisons and scorn) to the max when im lvl 60 with rogue mastery lvl 60, i would only need around 64,144 sp. would a 2-3 lvl gap all the way up be good enough?

Yea. 2-3 gap sounds good to me. I would get both daggers and xbow.

the force of a bullet hitting you dead on in the chest knocks u over

it happens in real life, some1 gets hit with a sniper while wearing a bullet proof vest, they get their arse knocked of their feet

same with xbow

daggers are good for theifs- since u can move fast while in silent mode, but the cost of sp is kinda alot to get both, but i would suggest getting every skill

Daggers are great for PvP, one hit or a combo with a good dagger and your opponent is down before they notice you

I have a lvl 39 rogue and I highly recommend you go both and you wont regret it. rogues with both weapons are much better off than rogues with only xbow or only daggar trust me

he's right, but think if this options are worth your very boring farming

even though rouges can farm really fast, cause they 2-3 hits mobs 6-7 lvls higher than them if they are really good.
but i know a full skills rouge lvl 70 that needed 120k sp from lvl 60 to 70 and 150k from 70 to 80. and that's with only noise and move march bard skills. so.. that's a lot of gaping on high lvls = very slow lvling. but on the bright side, slow leveling always gives u more time to make your good armor set. cause be ready for a *very* rare str 8d drops

ya a 2 - 3 gap would suffice to get both dagger and xbow, however i recommend getting as quickly to 40 as you can even if it means closing gap to 1 as after that you have an easier time lvling even with a gap.
