Rogue Assassin

[darkling.lithely]

I saw in the video that when monk is taken for the first and second class, it is called a godandag. Never heard of that before, but I assume this means that multiclassing is possible within a single class.

 

So, a rogue assassin is possible, right? I wonder about doing a pure rogue with a pure rogue. I'd take that every time.

You can't multi-class the same class twice, not even with 2 different subclasses. That was a UI bug, and Godandag is Xoti's unique monk subclass.

I don't think that is her class name. Gondandag is the first day of the week in the Eastern Reach. A bug made that string appear in the class table.

 

But to OP, even if you can't select double rogue, I think it's very likely that there will be an assassin-based sub-class.

I'm thinking of going rogue/wizard for my first character. Stab people in the bad, cast spells and disappear. It sounds like fun.

That sucks. I was already looking forward to being extra roguish!

Scroll way down to see subclasses:

Rogue

• Assassin - From stealth or invisibility, weapon attacks have bonus damage, Penetration, and Accuracy.  All incoming damage is increased.
• Streetfighter - Sneak Attack and crit damage increases when Flanked or Bloodied (<50% Health).  Recovery is slower when neither Flanked nor Bloodied.
• Trickster - Gains access to Illusion spells from the wizard list.  Sneak Attack deals less damage.

 

I think a Streetfighter/Assassin would be great to play too.

 

The Shadowdancer might be good. It seems better than DnD Shadowdancers.  I've played Rogue/Monk characters a lot and love them, but I'm not a huge fan of Pillar's monk.

Sweet thanks, I didn't know about those. Trickster class looks cool. Man, its getting harder and harder to decide which class to go with on my first playthrough.

I doubt dual Rogue subclass is an option...

I recall seeing gondandag referenced before this update, I was pretty sure it's an actual unique subclass name.

Actually there are some cool concepts with multiclassing subclasses of the same classes, the priests for example, i wonder if would take much work to balance, if not, would be nice.

Godandag

It's the first day of the week...it's a bug (Josh mentioned it on twitter).

[injurai]

Well there it is.

[JerekKruger]

Xoti's unique monk subclass is seen during the character creation portion of the video when they select the monk class. I'm on my mobile, so can't check the exact name, but it's called something like 'sister of the reaping moon'

[injurai]

I probably just made some assumption when I saw that crazy word.

 

One might say I was having a case of the gondandags.

[Boeroer]

I hope not:

It means "Good Day" in many germanic languages such like Dutch, Low German (Plattdeutsch), Flemish and so on.

I don't know if Josh's "Godandag" was inspired by then term "Godendag" though. But since he knows german...
