With expanded skill access, enhanced stealth mechanics, and out-of-era abilities, Rogues excel in precision damage, assassination techniques, and evasion. This guide covers key differences, auto-granted AAs, skill progression, and combat disciplines.
Rogues on THJ benefit from enhanced stealth mechanics, expanded AAs, and precision-based combat abilities. By mastering these features, you can optimize assassination potential, survivability, and burst damage for maximum effectiveness.
