[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 5728942, member: 9037"] Playing in an Age of Worms campaign right now and the rogue is doing just fine. Because not every encounter involves undead and he still can hit the undead just not back stab them. Plus there are a ton of locks and traps to be disabled through the game. So the rogue has plenty of chances to shine. I don't understand this complaint of the game has undead so now the rogue gets hosed. If the rogue is doing other things why does he need to be able back stab in every combat? Age of Worms is a perfect example of a path that gives all classes a chance to shine they just can't shine all the time. Maybe I am reading to much into it but it seems to me that people feel that if they have a special skill that means they get to use it all the time and if they can't then they are being nerfed. It is the same complaint I hear about wizards and other mages we are out of spells so we can only fire our crossbows and that damage is just weak. I came to play not hang around and fire cross bolts. Forgetting of course that you have already used your spells and had your time to shine. [/QUOTE]
