Best Armor set for rogue

Hi All,

I was wondering what you think is the best armor set.
I focus myself on in this order power, recovery, Armor pen, crit strike
My main power rotation is (single damage) cloak, lashing blade, dazing strike, path of blade
If my daily is up i use courage breaker 1st
For dungeons with lots of mobs i use (AOE damage) cloak, dazing strike, POB, smoke bomb
If my daily is up, i use whirlwind of blades first

Right now I'm running full swashbuckler set I also have 3 of the master assassin set (head, chest, boots) and 3 dracoinic set (Chest, arms, boots) I have a dragon main hand too but am using the artifact weapon main hand instead.

So what would be the best set or combination, i do notice my gear score goes down like 400 for a full set instead of using a 2 and 2 set (swash and MA set) like i did before i had a full set. any advice is appreciated.

    Looks like you are talking about xbox. You should be asking this in the xbox class section rather than in the PC class section.

    But to answer your question swashbuckler.

    Nice thinking...

    Yes, Swashbuckler is the best for PvE. There is more balance than with the Master Assassin's

    It is about the balance of stats. Swashbuckler offers much more survivability than the others due to it's balance of stats. It is hard to do DPS if you are dead.

    You are still working with the set bonuses, I believe, so wear all or wear none. I had 2 partial sets(draconic templar and swashbuckler) and one full set of Master Assassin. I lost too much mixing and matching.
