Hey im a level 157 rogue, i was just wondering what is our role now cause were kinda useless, mages now insanly out dps us due to the fact their firebolt combined with lures and an attunment spell is like a assinate without the restrictions and a cool down time lower than quike strike. Warriors can be dmg or tanks thanks to frenzys new time. We should get a skill to rival firebolt or get a better damage boost skill that lasts 2 minutes as far as im concerned were kinda useless now, we can't tank or be the best damage so yeah what now?

Huh? Your saying firebolt is as powerful as an assasinate? lol ok. A level 30 firebolt lists as like just over 1k plus mabye 400 in attunement so unless your mages are epic geared and your not Idk what your talking about. Also don't forget that took 60 points for bolt to hit that high ...

All I do on my rogue is solo lvl now, or either I tank a boss when a mage isn't there. And as far as I know, I shouldn't be tanking.

Ok sure he probably has huge focus bonus items and a bunch of + skills items and a good fire lure. Between attunement, bolt, and lure, he probaby has a total of 90 points invested lol.

Still want to complain about it? Just imagine a lvl 90 assasinate lol.

It basically takes a mage just as long to regen energy as a rogue lol. Just imagine waiting to regen 5k energy lol.

So what? Stop using energy shield then. Btw, my rogue never runs outta energy. Even if I am spamming skills over and over in bossfights. All I have is 20 energy regen. You guys get 80+
