These Stats do not include starting armor.
- Armor penetration abilities do not affect negative PDR, which means they have no affect on Monsters except some bosses
- Prioritize bringing bandages instead of potions into a raid, because potions last less time and therefore also heal less on Rogues due to their abysmal Buff Duration stat.
- Use your invisibility skill to ambush enemy players or de-aggro monsters.
- Use your throwing knives, they can do quite a bit of damage. You can even apply your on hit debuff skills and poison with them.
- You are not as durable as a Fighter, don't take big group fights head on, prioritize ambushing their low health or supportive team mates, to quickly turn the tides of battle into your favor. If you are forced to fight head-on, use your superior movement speed to your advantage by spacing yourself out of the enemy's range.
- If you are hiding in the dark, be sure to unequip your potions from your quick-slots, since they glow in the dark and would give your position away. In the same vein, enemies can see your weapons glowing in the dark if you use your buff abilities or Poison Weapon.
- You can use Hide while jumping up in the air if you crouch or shift walk, this will confuse the enemy and make your movements unpredictable.
- You cannot use your Hide skill while holding a light source in your hands.
- Keep in mind that swapping weapons and items makes noise, even if you are invisible.
