Rogue build?

[deathknight1728]

This has got to be the weirdest idea but i thought of it since i wanted to try some new challenge. I havent played this game in a while, however original m & b is my favorite of the series. I was thinking of making a character that doesnt wield shields, has almost super-human speed and runs around with a dagger or other small sword. Im probably sounding like a nut, but it sounds cool. The questions i have is when you get .5% speed added per dex, does that tie in to damage with how fast the attack hits. So lets say you put almost all points in dex, could that equal out a speed that is unfathomable?

Any info on this would be great as i am thinking of starting this class tonight.

I've went this way before once or twice. It's possible, but you can't play it like a normal character.
The speed bonus doesn't seem to add much attack power, or at least I didn't notice it. The more important thing is the weapon speed modifier you can see if you hold your mouse over a weapon for a while.
I tried to sink as many possible points into Athletics to help me outmanuver opponents and Weapon Master for more proficiency. Also, even if you don't plan on getting strength up much, I aim for powerstrike and power throw, otherwise your attacks don't do much.

Watch out for archers, and never be the first one up the ladder.
