i do know that many of you ll say that smoke bomb is mainly for supporting fellows, but what if rogues can support THEMSELVE with that skill, as it decreases the mobs defence, therefore, using a maxed poison weapon and a fast dagger can deal a good amount of dmg while waiting for skills to recharge, this build would need a maxed quick strike as usual, poison weapon maxed, shadow strike or like steal maxed , one of the previous skills half maxed, and finally rest in smoke bomb, and as a lvl 75 rogue, i would have:
20/20 quickstrike
17/20 poison weapon
16/20 life steal
15/20 fast reflexes ( i dont have ShadowStrike( try to farm while not allowed to use plat, kill steallers roaming next to you,and finally a couple of books that awaits you for the rest of the week :lol: :lol: :lol: ))
and finally 10/20 in smoke bomb

if you dont like it, lemme throw a smoke bomb to gimme the time escape to my secret laboratory :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Smoke bomb is pretty useless for soloing. Mobs just don't have enough defense to make it worthwhile to use. A damage skill would increase DPS far more.

Land chance is attack/(attack+mobdefense)

If the mobs defense reaches 0 then it will guarantee 100% auto lands. I assume most 1-4* mobs have between 400-1000 defense. Bosses have way more but the extra autos make it worth using if you're a pure auto rogue

Use life steal for soloing, better skill.

The problem is that , even with rings , life steal has a high energy cost.

Pick up sneaky or double attack in my opinion

Sneaky Attack is way under rated.

Well, considering sneaky is a dagger-only skill, no. Double attack is viable with daggers if you have a slow dagger like ancient bone.
