Rogues wield an array of melee weapons as well as bows and crossbows.

The Rogue’s preferred skills enhance the attack of melee and ranged weapons, like Heartseeker, Barrage, Rapid Fire, and Flurry. To offset their relatively low HP, the Rogue has a selection of mobility skills such as Blade Shift, and Shadow Step. Lacking in area of effect attacks for the most part, Rain of Arrows is the go-to for the Rogue.
