rogue/warlock or bard/warlock
which is better for pvp and solo
rouge/warlock you get stun and sleep and debuff meaning you can just fire up dagger desp and attack

bard/warlock you get high powered nukes from bard and with lock those increase also they are good in parties

both r good at solo
for pvp rogue/warlock is probbly better since it can tank and with debuffs and crits can almost always win

bardlok is also good tho many think its only good fr pve but if playd right will pwn pretty well if u can switch fast enough between rod/shield and harp

hope i helpd

Rogue owns at solo by far.

if u go a few lvls lower u will kill faster than rogue bsides locks r zerk machines wich speeds thng up ALOT

Rogue/warlocks are pretty screwed when it comes to partying- the Rogue class is pretty gimped in parties and can't do much else besides lure, while as a STR build all they can do is debuff, which is only efficient on party monsters. Soloing with crossbow rogue is easy, but the warlock sub is useless when fighting normal monsters which are what you will be killing most of the time when you solo. In pvp, they are known to debuff, sleep, and kill (which sounds boring in the long run, IMO.)

In contrast, a Bard/Warlock with sufficient skills can solo quickly with DoTs and can be a great help to the party as either a supporting Bard or mass DoTing and debuffing with Warlock. Does well in PVP with Warlock, but the downside is that they have no immunity or fast healing like a cleric subclass.

Solo pve: Both are good.
Party pve: Bard/Warlock by far.
Pvp: Rogue/Warlock gets easy kills with daggers/xbow after debuffing but it can get very boring. Bard/Warlock is good. Both can be frozen and spammed with ice imbue, which sucks majorly.
