[CLASS BUILD] the fast assassin (dual wielding rogue)

[Blades of Vanatar]

I find my Rogues get easily plinked by Archers. I try to make sure their armor has the pierce proof enchantment. When your Rogue engages in melee he usually chops any opponent down very quickly, so I don’t worry about the other defense types for his armor. Any missile defense item/spell is a good defense for a Rogue. Makes me think it would combo well with Monk in Deadfire.

I want to create a rogue who goes for full offense, moves and attacks as fast as possible and does lots of damage.

I want to thank a lot of people who gave me some advice for this, especially Boeroer and MaxQuest.
