[QUOTE="Eric V, post: 6461591, member: 6779717"] I was surprised when I read the 5e rogue, at how defensive it was compared to many other classes. I am currently running an Elf 4th level Arcane Trickster. I am the biggest damage dealer in the group, knowing that might change when the paladin and battlemaster hit level 5. We are playing HotDQ. Between [I]sleep[/I] and sneak attacking with the longbow, then hiding...I do just fine in combat. I considered multiclassing into champion for the higher crit range for my sneak attacks, but the extra damage from more SA dice outweighs the +2 to hit and 19-20 crit range. Took the Skulker feat, and strongly considering Sharpshooter. Outside of combat, I am a pain for the DM. Took Perception with Expertise, so my PP is 16. High stealth, sleight of hand and Investigation too. Playing her like a Lisbeth Salander (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo); low cha skills, good cerebral skills. Just made a bunch of cash pickpocketing the drunken paladins. She's been fun to play so far; I wasn't sure she would be since usually I play CHA-based toons. [/QUOTE]
