When did you realise you became a patrician and by default rolled rogues, assassins and thieves in rpgs?
Because heavy weapon plate users lack finesse and healing is for fucbois.
What are your favourite games to be one? or shitty games saved by their mechanics? God knows i wouldn't have enjoyed Oblivion without the Dark Brotherhood stuff. But even in mmo's and jrpgs i revisit i now tend to say 'fuck defence' and go full stealth.
What about you? do you prefer the shadow sneak with daggers? the fencing dandy who can infiltrate any rich to do and get out with the jewels and garters unscatched? or the INNAWOODS almost feral loner type who strikes from afar with bows?
top pleb but then again you did enjoy Oblivion so this isn't as much of an observation but merely an affirmation of why you are what you are

embarrasing
Daniel Thompson
Get out of here mage, and stop bringing your summoned gf to meetings!
Carter Flores
It's like you fags are all gay.
Ryan Wright
going by that logic you're some kind of faggot pacifist
Julian Rogers
Chrom, pls.
Ian Walker
Nice reading comprehension negro.
Adam Young
What does Chrom have to do with it? He fought for his friends and family with a sword.
David Wilson
Checks out. Which rpgs allow me to rape enemies?
Justin Green
Samurai is the asian class you want.
Tyler Baker
No defense. No stealth. No HP. All damage.

More like Whizzards.
Dylan Morales
would be a shame if your healer died why is it all nukers can't dress for shit anyway?
Aiden Reyes
Never.
Because real asassins don't use daggers, they use poison or make things look like an accident.
Also, because wariors/soldiers are agile and the finesse/dexterity beign a thing for rouges is bullshit. In fact, rouges/thief is the only part of mage/fighter/thief trinity that feels fake and tacked on. It never belonged there.
A thief is a fighter with lockpicking skills. That's it.
Eli Perez
a thief is also used to detect traps and hidden stuff too and that is also a rather tacked on too
Connor Reyes
It's like you don't want an army of skelebros and life manipulation magic The only good thief is Garrett anyway
Lincoln Cox
Everything you do an alchemist can do better.
Leo Morales
Translation: Cucked fighter left out of a party that required cunning and guile instead of autistic screeching and running into things wearing a helmet.
Alexander Torres
Fuck you faggot the only good thief is ME! because i'll steal your heart bb ;)
Grayson Torres
Those are all skills independent from the fighting style.
Regardless of weapon or armor - any individual with proper skill points can do it.
The way I see it there should only be two classes - mages and non-mages. Everything else is a matter of specialization, skill and equipment choice.
Christian Torres
I just came here to laugh at you and to say this manga is Neko Musume Michikusa Nikki.
Asher Reed
this isn't 4chan you have to go back
Jack James
Paladin/Death Knights with exception of Summoners.
Survivability over everything. Paladin dates back to WoW. Having full plate paladin with healing and mechanics to keep you alive. Summoners because D2 necromancer like everyone here. Why be healing immortal wall, when you can have immortal wall of minions in front of you. Plus having little army of skeletons is always a huge plus. And then comes WoW Death Knight. Immortal wall that heals itself by attacking and gets shit tone of shield AND CAN SUMMON MOTHERFUCKING ARMY OF ZOMBIES.
I really need to make The Scourge or The Baron build for Path of Exile. Depending on what is better, or maybe somehow both.
Jeremiah Hernandez
The spoonfeeding meme triggers a lot of retarded responses, but accusations of halfchan generally isn't one of them. Speaking of which, we don't say 4chan here, refugee.
Gabriel Rodriguez
>we hey,at least i put up a flag for my bait
Cooper Gutierrez
Even a child knows that no proper game lets you solo stuff. You need a party. Even though every party needs a rogue, no rogue does it all by himself.
James Garcia
OR You keep summoning your spirits and having your squires strap on your fridge doors bro, they will be long dead by the time you ready for battle.
Christopher Cruz
I'm 34 years old virgin, why would I play anything but the mighty caster?
A true rogue excels at almost everything uses anything at his disposal to achieve his goals: arrows, poison, knife to the back, fencing prowess, grenades, gadgets, traps, reading and exploiting opponents weaknesses within a flash, intimidation, and social games. He is not really picky and gets the job done. Unlike bathrobe faggots who even with reality bending power, still cannot fix their autism; and big dumb muscle who has to hurt and get hurt to get what he wants and he does it for free.
Truly, patrician.
Julian Bell
Aren't they dead already? Your little tricks don't work on Undead at all. And they can stand guard 24/7 so no chance of getting close enough to their master for you.
Adam Cruz

I like playing healer/cleric, wizard, paladin and monk.

It went almost pefectly. I asked for a pretty cocksucking whore, and it got everything but the "pretty" part right - it summoned your mom.

reframe from reddit spacing tbh. you're forgetting that magic can be used by fighters, spellswords as it were
Dylan Cook

Christopher Wood
more importantly there's no game which does necromancy well what so ever, it's either you get a small posy of minute lasting weaklings, middle men and one big beast thing or it's a rts/grandstrat/rtt/ where the personal element is not possible
Logan Bennett
Most RPGs suck to play as rogues.
Jason Diaz

Kevin Hernandez
I play a spellsword in any RPG that allows for it. If it's a game that nerfs or forbids hybrid classes, then I just roll a pure warrior. I would like to play a thief more often, but it's usually a waste of time, especially if it's not a party-based game. Most games undercut their stealth or charm mechanics by making them useless in the end-game, and only reward pure damage dealers. Also, I hate how most games call agility "DEX." Dexterity is only for your fingers and hands. Agility is for your limbs or your entire body. RPG designers must be illiterate.
Adrian Powell

Carson Myers
it really annoys me as well because it's usually seen as an extension of magic and thus the end game of wizards when really it's got nothing to do with magic but with commanding life in it's purest form. it also frustrates me when alchemists are just mages but with goggles as well even though it's based around combining various components to see what it does

Julian Ortiz
Trying to play NWN1 as a shadow dancer was hysterical due to how broken everything was regarding rogues.
Parker Baker
Nigger, you don't even know what game you're playing.
Samuel Gonzalez
Yes, I brain farted. It's been a long while since I played either game, but I remember this, because it's what made me stop playing. You get inside someone's mansion to steal shit. This someone has guards stationed on the top floor where the shit is. Two steps into this floor there's a trigger where you automatically unhide yourself to talk to a guard and your only options now are to pass a speech check or kill everyone. Even if you were to hack yourself to level 40 and max out the hide skills, you can't sneak past this. If this isn't the perfect situation for a thief to sneak past people I don't know what is.
Asher Watson
No, you're pretty much full of it. You can pickpocket half the city for fairly decent if randomized loot early on, hide in plain sight is as broken good as it was in NWN provided you don't suck and you're mostly bitching over base DnD mechanics. But I agree that rogues usually don't get their way unless the game is designed around them. Try dance with rogues or age of decadence.
Chase Rodriguez
Rpg's never have good mage, necro, or rogue mechanics.

much as i dont want it to be true the rogue can beat any class
Hudson Kelly
Sure you do. Just imagine every single googly-eyed character in that image you posted on the receiving end of a napalm run.
Brody Ross
Oh, I see now.
John Johnson
I remember back when I played wow a long fucking time ago, there was this undead rogue that would camp me and a few others in the guild when we met each other, the battles were always vicious and the dude was legendary in pvp. He even ended up 1v1ing our best warrior in full pvp gear as well as tanking gear and sword and board with his tanking spec another time. A good rogue is a scary thing.
Dominic Martin
I like playing rogues as fighters, works pretty well in NWN1.
Jaxson Walker
Get on my level.
You guys are alright too.
Connor Morgan
naw man i wanna be a wizard. theres more amusing ways to be a troublemaker if thats what i was after. if i need to be stronger or faster theres probably a potion or buff for that.

if you have a fucking teleport trap in your evil dungeon i dont think acquiring some fantasy lava that somehow never cools off is that out of the question. doesnt that usually come standard?
Ryder Cox
You have two fists and two legs. Use them.
Jonathan Johnson

John Cook
The fuck kind of rogue owns an evil dungeon and lures his enemies into it?
Brandon Hernandez
an enterpreneurial one
Benjamin Gray
maybe he "found it"
Josiah Roberts
I stopped playing mages once I got bored of all the mages and wizards in every game being the same cookie cutter fire/ice/lightning/wind spell casting aoe nukes. It gets pretty boring after a while so i just roll whatever class I feel like playing now.
I usually stick to fighter/warriors nowadays because some games give you the chance to be able to tank and spank or just straight up deal damage but I enjoy playing the rogue for those sneaky pvp plays. And although mages get lots of variety I have yet to see a game that implements a class that Ive really wanted to play for a while now, a necromancer or lich type. Its always just oh btw here's 3 skeletons you can summon thats about it. I want to summon flesh golems and bone pillars and build a giant bone mesh giant that plows through enemies or maybe skeletal archers and undead warriors all while maybe summoning some wraiths or something.
I'd also like to see a proper battle mage kind of like how DFO did it, it'd be nice to see a mage using his staff as a fucking weapon of destruction by imbuing it with magic and not just beating them over the head with it but using combos and special grab moves to sort of counter the fact that warriors can just come up to our faces because of their massive hp pool and beating our faces in. It just depends no how the game handles it bust most mages in games get the short end of the stick when it comes to pvp sometimes.
Bentley Collins
this tbh
Julian Sanchez
But why?

Elijah Cruz
The only reason my healer died is because the retard stood too close to the apocalypse I just buttfucked the entire enemy party with.
Robert Hall
thats not how you do it user you set a teleport trap, and set the trap to teleport the guy into a volcano
John James
my nigga
Adam Rodriguez
oh so its magma i wanted to type, not lava you get the picture though, right?
Eli Lopez
That's wasteful. Responsible dungeon keepers recycle their dead adventurers and heroes into skeleton guards and zombies.
Zachary Moore
spellswords are basically transsexuals, fam
Charles Green
who said the rogue was a dungeon keeper?
Nolan Reyes

Benjamin Ortiz
okay okay so instead of teleporting them into a volcano you teleport them near the top a mile-deep pit, where they fall to their deaths
Oliver Stewart
They go back much much further than that you ridiculous faggot.

Then they are mages first.
You can use magic or you can't.
Robert Thompson
The D&D standard of "being a better fighter means you have more numbers" needs to go. Where the fuck are my Greek hero fighters that can throw 500 lb boulders as weapons and turn gaze attacks back at monsters with his polished shield? "B-but he's just a dude with a sword he can't be as cool as a magic man!" Fuck that noise. D&D ruined sword and sorcery and I say that as a guy who has played D&D for 10 years.

Where did this rogues/thieves = edgelords thing come from? Mind you, I'm no MMO shitter so I don't know how they're portrayed in those. When I roll thief I always roleplay a Garrett-like character because he's my favorite vidya protagonist.
Andrew Powell
Garrett was a '90s edgelord. Maybe it's not as noticeable today.
Ian Flores
It came from the kinds of people who are attracted to playing a rogue
Josiah Baker
you can use items which are magic that cast spells, that counts tbhh
David King
not spoonfeeding you nigger but i'll give you a hint movie,80's,magic bow happy hunting
