I played a GWF, CW, and rogue all to level 20+ this weekend and of the three classes trickster rogue was by far the stronger at least sub level 20. I'm curious, for those who made it to level 40-50 how do you feel about class balance? At lower levels it is very clear that rogue does the most damage and probably has the best survivability as well. Do you feel that GWF gets stronger later or is rogue still the strongest class at high levels?

PvP-Only hit 37 but after hitting it went to try pvp and got two hit by a rogue. (All my enchantments were +200 hp at least) The few times I didn't have a rogue up my butt I had to deal with players that were a higher level. Also can't forget all the control wizards that chain cc'd you until death. Was the worst experience in mmo pvp I've ever had. Complete and utter unbalance. After that train wreck I decided to try the rogue, could of played with one hand and offer more to my team then with the GWF or GF.
pve- GWF was great in dungeons and boss fights. Even though a rogue's single dps will still not be far behind despite you aoeing everything. Solo leveling was fairly bad until you got your cleric companion. After that it was pretty good due to all your aoe.

I thought the GWF performed fairly well. I made it to level 46 and spent a good amount of time PvP from level 20-39. Level 40+ pvp did not exist. I got one game to pop in 6 hours and it never went through due to someone declining the queue.
I kept str/con up as my stats and built for defense and armor pen. PvE was fairly easy after I got my pet. I felt I got stronger compared to my TR buddy as we got higher in levels. Captain Kayliss wasn't all that difficult solo and I know some TRs had a hard time with that fight.
In PvP I thought the high mobility and decent burst made the class perform fairly well. I feel GWFs are the best CW counters due to their mobility. I managed to get into several 1v1s against CWs and never had a problem winning the fight. The only 1v1 problem I had was against one TR that deviated from the usual TR attack plan plus he caught me on my mount and got a free knockdown opener. Overall it is a good class in PvP, I think the CW is probably the best class currently in regards to pvp.

Just my 2 cents.
Just sayin'.
