Rogue/Skills

From Runes of Magic Wiki - The Runes of Magic

Rogue skills center around dirty fighting, attacking opponents who are vulnerable because they are either bleeding or cannot see the Rogue. The skill tree is largely oriented around dual-wielding daggers but has a large variety of niche abilities that increase their survivability and mobility.

Rogue Elite Skills have myriad uses but generally amplify the advantages conferred by a Rogue's choice of secondary class.
