Overview

Rogues are a versatile class, only really lacking in PvM skills but excelling in PvP and WoE. With their strip skills, Rogues can render most classes useless in a PvP environment. With Gank, a Rogue can obtain double the loot another class could gather in the same amount of time. Rogues can wield bows, daggers, or swords and can copy a variety of player skills to help them level, although a Rogue cannot use Intimidate to its full potential like its transcendent counterpart can.

Jobchange Guide

See Rogue Job Change Guide for detailed information.

Changing into a Rogue from a Thief requires the player to complete a number of tasks:

• A Written Test
• Item collection test
• Maze test

After completing these tests, the player will be transformed into a Rogue. Most of this takes place inside the Rogue Guild at the Pharos Lighthouse (cmd_fild07).

Back Stab	Needs to be used directly at enemy's back at 1 cell range for it to work. Cast Delay is based on ASPD.	Now allows the player to cast it from 3 cells away to an enemy from any angle, "jumping" behind them and doing a strong attack. Cast delay is now [3.4 - 0.1 × SkillLV ] seconds. All other effect remains the same.	Redesigned to be an easier to use gap closing skill. Future development may add a toggle to revert back to the original function of this skill at the user's choice.

Preserve	NEW SKILL		Allows Rogues to not lose the skill learned via Intimidate even when hit by a different skill for duration of the skill. Note: It is part of the rogue's skill tree as such you will be required to invest one point of your skill points in it if you are planning to take it.
