Alas that our community is so divided, as we have some thinking we should be a full dps class, and others thinking we need aoe. I truly hope that the burglar becomes the heart of every fellowship again.

If red could just be our sneaky burst (solo/pvmp), blue our sustained dps with fellowship utility, and yellow our trickster: debuff, cc, moderate healing and moderate damage.
Wasn't that the original intention?

Red burst is already in a good shape in my opinion. It's blue and yellow that are in worse state.
i think we all agree that yellow is buff line, but in my opinion blue should not have more dps than red. Red is squishy high burst line. You can oneshot landscape mobs yay or maybe creeps in pvmp and thats all. There is no need for burst in instances. Even if something is dps race, and you want to dps some mob fast, the time in which you do it is so long, that burglar 'burst' falls behind other dps. Compared to red, blue offer much more utility and thus i see it as something between yellow and red.

Yellow line is the only line currently usable for group content.

In my opinion burglar should be a single target dps class with same damage as rk/hunter WHEN fighting from behind. Which would effectively mean we would always have less dps because of not being ranged and other mechanics.
