I'm currently running a poison Rogue build (lvl 39) with the following abilities:

Actives:

  • Primary Forceful Arrow
  • Advanced Twisting Blades
  • Methodical Dash
  • Countering Poison Trap
  • Rain of Arrows
  • Poison Imbuement

Passives:

  • Exposure
  • Weapon Mastery
  • Deadly Venom

Admittedly I am following a guide from Gamespot because I'm not smart enough to find the most efficient path for most damage. Often I find that my sorcerer friends take down enemies a ton quicker but it could be because I'm not playing my class correctly yet.

Any recommendations or just want to share your other class builds?

I couldn't resist making a corpse explosion necro. I used my own way to get to 50. ONce i got to 50 looked up some tips to optimize what I did and went with shadow damage.

It might make sense for me to wait until I get to 50 as well. After I read these awesome suggestions, I went into the game and it looks like it would cost me $26,000 just to respec. I don't like that the game makes experimentation prohibitive, but then again I don't know how precious money drops will get heading into end game.

26k isn't much. my level 50 druid has over 4 million gold...

I've been trying to save gold, but I really wasn't too stingy in what I spent it on. Mostly upgrading just weapons, repair bills, and an aspect here and there. I'm mostly hording mats until late game. If you make a couple runs or selling blues and yellows you find, you'll get back what you spent in respeccing easy. Just don't sell too much in items because you'll have plenty of gold in no time from said selling and questing. Mats are more valuable. What I'm getting at is don't feel bad spending to respec, I did it a couple times tinkering with skills here and there, and once completely all over. I'm not in end game so take that with a grain of salt. I have fun tinkering with skills so I am not really bothered spending on it.

Your worries about gold end pretty quickly, at least as far as the cost of skills and gear upgrades are concerned. I'm level 44 and have fully respec'd my character twice as well as tweaked those builds along the way.
