Message: <blockquote data-quote="ECMO3" data-source="post: 8513991" data-attributes="member: 7030563">Well a Rogue is not a very powerful class in terms of raw damage.Also to be clear "dramatically" refers to the span of examples I gave, from being able to automatically able to dump on an enemy without a check or roll (which is OP IMO) as compared to not being allowed to try it at all (which is underpowered).FWIW Mage Hand features prominently in combat I do with a Rogue, even if my DM does not allow this trick.  Aside from the example here, I also use it to control the battle field with caltrops, ball bearings, hunting traps, steal enemy weapons before their 1st turn or their ammunition cases, steal their spell focuses/component pouches etc.  That is really a defining trait of an Arcane Trickster.  The knick is having the mage hand out though, because although you can use it with a BA, it takes an action to cast.  So if it is not already out it when combat starts, it can be difficult to get it out.</blockquote>
