Opportunistic Striker · Melee DPS · DEX

Rogue

If you saw me arrive, I meant you to. Poisons, hidden blades, timely stuns, light fingers, and a talent for vanishing keep a Rogue alive where heavier folk rely on louder armor.

Most melee weapons fit the work, provided the enemy is looking elsewhere when the sharp part arrives. Strong foes are troublesome alone, certainly—but pockets, locks, and poorly guarded tavern money remain wonderfully cooperative.

Bonus point advice

Dexterity is the Rogue's primary attribute and the best starting priority for accuracy and proc chance. After that, favor Agility for mobility and avoidance, then Strength for melee damage.

Choose for your playstyle: Favor Dexterity for accuracy and procs, Agility for mobility and avoidance, Strength for melee damage, or Stamina for survivability.
