ive heard mention of them, but how they build and work ?

Guess those folks were referring to High Deflect/Regen (PVP oriented) rogues. So high con/dex/cha halflings to help bring HP and deflect up to very high levels. This combined with high amounts of regen (and maybe additional lifesteal) and stealth prolonging gear/feats makes you really hard to bring down unless gang r*ped. However you'll have to sacrifice a bit of offensive potential but still enough to be an asset to every PVP/PVE group.

If a GF is needed to kite adds, a TR often tanks. Mine has tanked Karrundax and the final boss in Frozen Heart and Pirate King. I was wearing T1, and had little dungeon experience. You just have to time your ITC and potions right.

Exactly as burkaane stated above you roll a tr that is a halfling with the best mixture of con, dex, cha which maximizes your life and deflect. Couple that with high regen and every set a tr has is equipped with life steal you will be extremely hard to bring down unless teamed up. The thing is tr crank out a lot of damage so life steal is not bad and couple it with regen you can heal extremely fast if you play the class very well. Not to mention a stealth based executioner build with t2 pvp gear your regen heals quit a lot while your in stealth. Some tr's get their deflect up to 40% plus with this build. You do sacrifice overall damage for survival. I've faced some on my pure dps Orc tr 25 str, 25 dex and it's all come down to is if he can deflect my hits. I hit like a truck but if his deflect kicks in I am stuck without encounters and in big trouble if it doesn't they usually run. It's a great build the deflect tr there are a couple build like Alysin chains in this forum
