Rogue

The rogue fights up close, and only with daggers: a rogue wields nothing else, and wears cloth or leather. It starts with an Iron Dagger in one hand and a Parrying Dagger in the other. Any dagger can go in the off hand. Clicking one in the bag wears it in the empty hand, and dragging it onto a slot of the character sheet puts it there. The off hand adds its dagger's attributes, but every blow is struck with the main hand.

Ambush is the knife driven in: 80% of your dagger's damage, as often as the dagger in your main hand swings. Sabotage is a lighter cut that leaves its mark. For 12 s afterwards, the rogue's own blows on that foe land 20% harder. Firebomb is thrown, so it reaches as far as a shot. It lands nothing at once: the foe burns for 6 s instead.

Smoke Screen is the rogue's defence: it softens every blow that lands for a few seconds. Rallying Cry is its party buff: it rouses everyone in your party within reach to deal more damage. Garrote is its PvP answer: a cut that silences, so a caster cannot cast and a thrower cannot throw.

Panic Attack slashes at everything within 5 m of you, and they bleed. Sucker Punch stuns one foe for 2 s. Disappearing Act drops you out of the fight: every creature lets go of you, nothing comes for you, and nobody outside your party can see or strike you for 3 s, or until you do anything else. Your party still sees you, faintly. Adrenaline is your cooldown: your swings come 40% faster for 10 s.

Everything a rogue does spends dexterity, the blade and the firebomb alike, so a rogue's pool is dexterity, the deepest any class starts with. A full pool makes the opening blows land hardest.

Under the bars, the rogue's panel shows how long Sabotage has left on your target. The target frame shows the range for what you are holding.
