Dev Discussion #74 - Rogue Archetype

Dev Discussions are an opportunity to join in on player discussions about topics that Intrepid Studios want to hear your thoughts on. This is less about asking us questions, and more about us asking YOU the questions! If you do have questions about Ashes of Creation, keep an eye our social media channels for our monthly livestreams, check out the Ashes of Creation community wiki, or try the #questions channel in Discord! In this thread, we’ll be discussing: Dev Discussion - Rogue Archetype

The Development Team wants your thoughts on the new Rogue Archetype! What are your first impressions of the Rogue? Do you have any thoughts or concerns regarding the Rogue? What are your favorite and least favorite aspects of the Rogue so far?

Edit - The team is looking for feedback on the following: (As you share feedback, please note what level your Rogue is at!)

• General Rogue Feedback - What feels fun, and what doesn’t? Which abilities do you like best, and which abilities do you feel need the most improvement?
• Visual Effects
(VFX) and Sound Effects (SFX) - How do you feel about current VFX and SFX for the Rogue archetype? While these are a work in progress, we want to know what you like, and what you don’t.
• Rogue Class Mechanic “Advantage” - How does it feel to generate this resource and spend it to empower abilities?
• Rogue Stealth - How does this feel to use in PvE? How does this feel to use in PvP?
• Dagger Weapon Combos - What do you like about Dagger weapon combos, and what do you feel needs improvement?

Please don't feel limited to the thought-starters above! Feel free to share any thoughts, concerns, or stories regarding gathering with us in this Dev Discussion.

Hey all! I edited the OP with additional questions that the team would like targeted feedback on. Please spread the word to your Rogue-playing friends! (As you share feedback, please note what level your Rogue is at!)
