Adding custom rogue to the party

[Melusina]

I'm level 4 now, my party consist of druid stag (me), Eder, Durance, Aloth and Kana. I'm thinking of adding a moon goodlike rogue. Thoughts?

[KDubya]

Not sure on the moon godlike choice for a rogue. I think moon godlikes are stupidly broken balance wise but they work best on someone who will get hit a lot, like a Monk or a Barbarian. Not so much for a Rogue who ideally won't ever be getting hit. If your Rogue starts taking enough damage to make the Moon Godlike's heal attractive you need to work on your Rogue tactics.

 

I'd suggest one of the more offensive race talents like Death Godlike, Heath Orlan, Boreal Dwarf, Island Aumaua or even Pale Elf for the extra DR. All of these racial abilities help you deal out damage or with the Pale Elf tank it.

I made a Pale Elf Rogue the second I got to Gilded Vale.  It's too painful going around without someone with a high mechanics skill and it takes way too long to get the Devil of Caroc.

I also made a Pale Elf Rogue. She started as ranged and recpecd full melee as soon as I could get Tall Grass. Simply put she is the highest dmg dealer I have seen in the game.

Hey I made a pale elf rogue NPC too ! Two times in two runs.

 

Let's make a pale elf rogue party !

No matter how long I play these games I still find Rogues my fav character.

 

I made a Hearth Orlan Rogue.  Went with high perception and the 2 early stilettos for now.  She has the mechanics gloves.  I actually got lucky and found 3 of them so far.

She has the dex belt move speed boots and liliths cloak on.

She has the highest dmg crits hits and biggest enemy downed.  awesome!!!

In WM the highest mechanics checks are [spoiler[15

. Unless you happened upon that illusive Gloves of Mechanics, and rest exclusively at Caed Nua, rogues are literally the only class that can reach it.

 

Either make one now, or wait till the Devil joins your party.
