Rogue

Rogue (1.45) Adventurer Class

Rogues are found in every culture and go by many names: spy, thief, cat burglar, explorer, etc. Many use their skills for productive means, and others are as dishonest as they are skilled.

Playing the Rogue

The Rogue relies on stealth, positioning, and subtlety to achieve their goals. The Rogue has a decent amount of choices in weapon use and can use piercing weapons. If you want to play a character that doesn't have to wear armor to be effective and is a very useful party member in quest then this is the class for you. The rogue can wear some armor but many do not.

Abilities

Armor Allowed: Light (Level 1)
Weapons Allowed: Knife, Dagger, Stick, Club, Longsword, Shortsword, Rapier, Hand Crossbow (3x/day)

Level 1

Dual Wielding: You can dual wield two daggers, two knives, a rapier and dagger, and a shortsword and one dagger.
Pick Locks: You can open treasure boxes in quests, encounters, battles, or duel areas.
Backstab: You ignore all APR if you make a melee attack from behind or the side. You must call out “Backstab” for each strike. If your strike is successful, the target's HP drops to 0. Can be used an unlimited amount of times but it cannot be used with ranged attacks or spells.
Use Hand Crossbow: Three shots per day (3x/day). This can be refilled by smith, forge, or a high enough level druid. (If you are a member of the Tiss culture, then you get +1 to hand crossbow damage instead).
Buckler Use: You can use small shields/bucklers.

Dexterous Movement: Due to your quick movement and dodging ability you have +1 APR. This stacks with other sources of APR improvement, including armor.
