Well before I got this game I said that I think Rogues might lose stealth eventually, but it would start with casters whining and bitching about it.
So about a week ago I was in guild chat with some RL friends of mine, and one of them(Warlock) who is a good friend of mine is talking with me about PvP.
I am talking about how I like my rogue and he says:
"I think they will Nerf Rogues in PvP. I mean, its too easy for them to come up and hit me for 100s of damage, I can't see them at all and thats not fair."
That is where it starts, enough people bitching and it might just lead to a change. They said it would never happen in DAOC....it did.
Slap him, I don't have a (main) rogue char, but i can see how they are balanced with little health and restricted to nothing more than leather armor. It takes next to nothing to kill them. As a warrior with pretty nice armor, I can reduce the damage done to me by a mob of the same lvl by about 45% and I also have about 1400hp. Now when I get attacked by a rogue about the same lvl, after the stun and what-not is over, I have about 800hp and can hit him for about 50 normal and about 80-85 crit. Once that stun period is over, you can't let him get behind you and it really isn't that hard.
I wish everyone would stop bitching about the stealth because it's just fine the way it is.

The already nerfed sap to 15 seconds. If they nerf stealth it will be worthless to be a rouge.

If you've ran into a lockdown build you might change your tune, but their downtime is huge, and if they miss one ability (Which rogues do a lot, mine at lvl1-33 had a 20% miss rate, give or take), their attack is stuffed and they have to vanish and try again later.
A well played Rogue is very hard to kill, but usually people cry about rogues when the rogue is 8+ their own level. If you're above a rogue in level, you'll see through his stealth extremely easily.
