EXPLOIT this Tactic if you want to reach Endgame on Rogue (and stay there)

also lmk in the comments, if you want me to go more in depth into Rogue’s role in trios

[@Neneko101]

I hear people ask a lot "What is a Rogue's roll in trios?" I've played Rogue since PT1 and from what I've noticed he's never really been good at any of the main three rolls, so he falls into the Disrupter class. It's a type of class that you /want/ the other team to know you have. If they know there's a Rogue, they're going to break formation and constantly be checking areas or angles that any other class can't access, forcing them to panic. When they lose focus and start swinging at the darkness, your team can start picking them off or pushing. Regardless if you're already in their backline or not, they /think/ you're behind them, and that right there is what causes them to lose. Sometimes you don't even need to do anything because their backline is too busy fighting ghosts, you can just run in and get a pick.

[@hunnedk]

100%, nail on the head

[@Neneko101]

@@hunnedk I've watched you and other high APM Rogues for awhile and I can safely say that you have probably one of the best/easiest to follow guides on how to play this class. It's nice to see someone sit back and explain things in a way newer players can understand, because I know picking a super squishy class can be a bit discouraging for people who die a lot because of it. Each class in this game has multiple templates they can use to have different experiences and I think you encapsulate it pretty well showing that Rogue isn't just a loot goblin, but a force to be reckoned with if played at their absolute peak. Keep up the good work, and shank those pesky wizards.

19:03 when ranger was looking behind my gutts gave me feeling "dont push"

@@Neneko101 showing to the world that Rogue should be respected was my goal, from Solos, to now, trios.

[@rzep6562]

I've always been interesting in the concept of a Rogue without Hide. Would you say it is possible to play it without actively crippling yourself in solos?

[@hunnedk]

you can, in fact at some point last wipe meta was to run a PDR no hide rogue build. But it mostly relied on opponents underestimating you

[@bw459x]

“Ironmace isn’t creative enough yet for rogue to be a support role”. Imagine they gave rogue the ability to either give their invisibility to another single player like wizard or they get the ability to hide an entire party like bard?

[@ivchief8577]

Why do you call out the cleric as endboss? How could you know?

[@hunnedk]

@@ivchief8577 Cuz I thought the barb was skinny pete. But it wasnt them, were just some randoms

[@SirBinski]

Curious why you choose to go so much into move speed as opposed to more health/action speed. Usually I try to hit 105% move speed and find that to be enough. Typically this means adventurer boots with add move speed and electing for different rings other than quickness. Is it personal preference or is there a reason you think move speed might be better?

[@hunnedk]

Movespeed opens up options for a rogue, which is super helpful for offensive maneuvers but also helps survive encounters. I think almost every clip shows how movespeed allowed me to be in the right spot at the right time AND then allowed me to escape as well.

[@aidanbecker9758]

@@hunnedk Especially the escaping afterwards part. Rogues can't stick around if even a single person knows exactly where they are. So they either kill one and need to leave FAST, or they fail and need to leave even faster. A bit more hp or damage won't save you if you have a buffed barb chasing you, but being ms cap guarantees they can't catch you in a straight chase

Nice vid, keep it up

[@qwertyuiopisaw931]

i ended up getting a skull key doing something similar to this. if i got a cave troll spawn i killed him and went to spider room killed giant spiders and killed the champ and for cyclops i checked for skele champ and if he want there i just killed cyclops and hit pile. it took around 3 hours to get my skull key but i had some pretty luck drops

[@ИльяВульвач]

How u dodge spider spits? They piss me off so hard

[@qwertyuiopisaw931]

@ you can either back up a little bit and move to the left or right or if you have a shield block it body level

[@ИльяВульвач]

@@qwertyuiopisaw931 ah, i meant by a rogue)) u have to be super close to land dagger hits and just cant break distance in time to dodge

[@qwertyuiopisaw931]

@ when you first walk up to them they usually spit first so you walk close to then and really fast you back off and bait it’s spit straifing

[@alexanders6670]

I couldn't really see how rogue was really usefull in any way there, i feel like any other class would be much better for your team, sometimes you can make a play, but seems really inconsistent and feels like depends more about the enemy knowledge than your own skills, I had the feeling any other class would help much more in mutiple situations, this video convinced me a bit more not to want rogues in my party when playing trios

[@hunnedk]

If you couldn't see it after this video, then it's on you mostly
