What build are you using? Started a Heartseeker but only like lvl 18 so its pretty bad right now.

Did Heartseeker also. Tried every damn ability, but went back to Heartseeker because of energy starvation. I wound up temper stacking "Chance for Hearthseeker to cast twice" and vulnerable damage even at low levels, even between frequent gear swaps. It made it....tolerable.

Once you get your 925 gear at 55. It's a wrap-a-dap. My level 75 Rogue is better than any 100 Barb I built in every way. I mean Christ, how many escape tools this class have!

I leveled Barb, Necro, and Rogue back to back, all with Harliquen's Crest, and thought rogue (Barrage) was easily the weakest. Necro (Golem) was strongest of those three, even without holy bolts. Sorc (Incinerate) was strongest over all, but I also had Tyrial's on that character and all resists maxed at 85% around level 55.

I guess the lesson here is that MaxRoll failed me for leveling spec rankings, since I would assume that's probably the ranking for totally fresh characters, not alts.

Rogue was weak until this patch.

Leveled all the classes minus necro with shako and tyraels, Necro was the easiest without any help. Rogue was the most fun followed by Sorc aand Barb, Druid was the least fun.

I’ve given up on any class other than Barb from here on out as my main, they are clearly the favorite.

Yeah Heartseeker rogue is silly. I thought minion Necro was the fire-and-forget lazy class, but it's HS rogue. For almost everything except the hardest content it's one-button push. You don't even need Inner Sight but it makes it just that much faster.
