    Rogues rely on skill, stealth, and their foes’ vulnerabilities to get the upper hand in any situation. They have a knack for finding the solution to just about any problem, demonstrating a resourcefulness and versatility that is the cornerstone of any successful adventuring party.

    My dm made rouges the villains in our last adventure, The most powerful one ambushed us saying something like. "It's nothing personal you are just obstacles between us and our money." It was a cool adventure.

    I played a rogue in a campaign once as a fun run for the class (never played a rogue before this) and my party came across a door that was enchanted to make a screaming sound if someone tried to force the door open as a form of alarm. I rolled to pick the lock and I remember the DM said this: "As you work your lockpicks in the keyhole of the door, you hear the door moaning in ecstasy and pants 'I haven't been touched like that in so long'. My party practically died laughing. I was so embarrassed I haven't played a rogue since.
    Sorry for the tangent, but that whole 'Door' example with the skills reminded me of it.

    The problem with using the free version: if you are doing the Variant Human and choose a feat like Magic Initiate, you can't choose spells and have to note them in the notes section.

    Fun video and great tips for the beginniner rogue. On the more experienced side... I would have hoped for some pros and cons with a rogue, so instead of "you will use this a lot", I would love a litte "why" (are you as a rogue best fitted to deal with this). Nonetheless, great video.

      Because a rogue gets nothing mechanically, they are almost a satire of a class. A meme

      I don't agree, those sneak attacks are good. And they can use Thieves' Tools. You just need to get creative, a little more so with a rogue that I agee with you.

      @@FamBoren the issue, sneak attacks does comically little damage based on levels they are used, and the skills they used can outdone by rangers, bards or literally most casters. They are given caster health/durability with no caster viability, damage or abilities. thematically rogues are awesome but mechanically they are a joke

      @thesquishogods8015 Před rokem

      @@FamBoren thieves tools can be less creative then cantrips, the spell caster bias is a thing that does exist, when rogues are treated as non fantastical they become a joke. A set of tools can do so little especially when thought is put in. The game mechanically makes this worse rather than justifying it. Especially with the last rogue UA.
