Rogues abilities are used in order to both deal damage and attempt to avoid it.
The majority of rogue abilities fall into one of three categories: Opening moves - Openers are what every rogue should begin a fight with. These powerful attacks are only usable while Stealthed and break the Stealth effect upon use. A common tactic for burst damage is to open on the enemy, [Vanish], and open again. A few examples are [Ambush], [Cheap Shot], and [Garrote].
Combo moves - These moves are the bread and butter of a rogue. Combo moves generate Combo points, which are required to use a finishing move. They deal the majority of your damage and fill the void between your openers and your finishers. A few examples are [Sinister Strike], [Mutilate], and [Hemorrhage].
Finishing moves - These are the rogue's strongest attacks. They require Combo points to use and increase in effect depending upon the number of Combo points you have on the target. A good rogue will need to learn to use the right finishers at the right time, as there are a lot of them. A few examples are [Eviscerate], [Envenom], and [Rupture].
In addition to these combat moves, rogues have a number of other abilities, such as [Distract], [Stealth], and [Pick Pocket].
See detailed rogue abilities for a greater description on all abilities.
Trainable abilities
Note for Combo points:
- +x indicates the move will award x Combo points
- 0 indicates the move will reset the Combo points back to zero
- - indicates the move doesn't use Combo points in any form
