The "hybrid" gear was meant to be worn by healers that wanted to DPS at a corresponding reduction in healing ability. And I think there's another set that was meant to be worn by tanks that wanted to DPS but it reduced their tanking ability? Not sure, but anyway you get the point, it was supposed to be a trade-off. There's really no tradeoff for scouts, it's just better, so not as intended.

It's not right to offer them an offensive and defensive play styles and giving rouges just one. I posted on the In Testing forum about rogues using the Soul Lancer. We should get to chose to mix and match the different sets if we need to. We all are going to be running around with the same fucking gear on all the time? where is the fun in that - there aint none.

it is too defesnvie, BP has a heal , hat has +defense, shoulders add to spells (which poisons are! you could say it buffs vitality breach or mental breach if you are out of power.) all great options for defense mode. soul lancer has good spot in your bags.

Uh, it also does more DPS, so you're actually shooting your argument in the foot. The hybrid sets are a supposed to be a tradeoff. If in the case of the soul lancer it does more DPS AND more defense then it's just double wrong instead of singly wrong.
I never said it wasn't good, I said the result wasn't as intended, which your post proves even further.
