Rogue skills and such

Post by Bellayana » Tue Jan 12, 2010 7:30 pm

Alright, so I am starting to wonder about rogues as I play mine further. Does the rogues attack depend on their dexterity? And as far as skills backstab has not risen once since I've used it, another thing is circle stab seems to not work at all literally. Rogues already have a major handicap as being weak once they take a hit, their advantage is supposed to be fast and harsh attacks but those skills that give that attack seem to not exist. Anyone that can help bring light on this would be of great help!

Circle stab is supposed to work when grouped--say a fighter hits an enemy, then the rogue is supposed to be able to circle around and stab that same enemy. It doesn't work when soloing.

As for backstab, I've noticed the same thing--I've been stuck on apprentice for a while. It might just be because you can only use it once in a fight, and then if you're lucky--you just aren't using it that much?

I couldn't have explained it better, mind, both skills are really slow to raise.
