A helpful guide to building a Trickster Rogue

It has been my impression that the Trickster Rogue is rather tricky to play at endgame for PVE-focused folks. Leveling a rogue and running a dungeon as a rogue are two different stories. This is a very old guide, but it is not completely outdated. This guide also explains what a rogue can do in a dungeon besides murdering the boss as efficiently as possible. Even discounting all the nerfs to the class, this build puts out an amazing *stream* of DPS. Also, if you're good at dodging, this build is very survivable in T2 dungeons. For those who dabble in PVP, this build is decent in PVP, but do not expect to rank near the top on the leaderboard.
As for my own Rogue, it's very similar to this, but I always keep one AOE and crowd control with me just in case. Currently, I am using 2 pieces of Master Assassin and 2 pieces of Battlefield Skulker. The be-all-end-all armor set I am going for is Battlefield Skulker from Gauntlegrym, because it is the only set with a bonus that is on all the time.
