Scout Rotation Help.

Ok so I've just returned to RoM after about 3 years and I've decided to go scout/rogue/mage (97/91/70). I've played rogue/mage from chap 3 up until Bethomia then I stopped playing. I heard scouts are now a decent viable class to play but I do not know a decent rotation. So to save myself the time does anyone have any advice on a rotation for scout/rogue? Your help is much appreciated. Now, I'll go back to messing with it. Thanks.

S/r rotation is
Sapping arrow (if no druid in party, if there is. Substitute another shot)
Shot
Autoshot
Vampire arrow
Snipe
Deadly poison bite
Reflected shot
Piercing arrow

This is bossfight rotation at least.

Zathal- D/W/S/Wd

I do a lot of my forum stuff from my phone, so forgive any typos please :3

also to note is that you want to hit Snipe, DPB and reflected on AD (Authoritative Deterrence) for some serious damage output. Just got to time it and if everything goes well, your best damage skills just went up by ~50%.

another thing to note is that sometimes its better to use reflected before DPB on certain bosses with adds/other things that can be hit.

Rakalaka M/P/L (98/98/98)

You can use sapping with seeds if there is enough magic dps in the party to make it worthwhile. 15% less mdef is worth it more for 2+ magical dps imo then the 3% or something you lose from melee seeds.

Remember there is no Magic DPS on the US servers ;p and what Krayden (armadillo) said except I'd engage Autoshot first than do the 1-2 shots and vamp. Just depends what you are more comfortable with.

Only thing I would chnge is sub Weak Spot for Piercing Arrow. Since Piercing Arrow is seen as an AOE, it has 30% less dmg on single target, so even though Weak Spot is a lower % dps ratio, it hits harder on boss

They actually hit for the same ^.^ mana drain shot/piercing arrow/reflected shot/weak spot all hits for basically the same damage, I always say people should do piercing arrow over the other 3 cause it is more useful for mobs and has a shorter cooldown for bosses. Of course im talking scouts in general and not the S/R enhanced reflected shot, so in this case that should take priority.
