Rogue 1.12 Preview

[Lissa]

I Vanish, then you cast Flare ... stealth gone. Was that so hard?

Or you stun, Vanish, and by the time I'm out of stun and can use Flare, you're out of the AoE and then I have to wait for you to attack again.

And warlocks ...

Only if they get the jump on you and not vice versa. About the only Warlock that could possibly stand a chance against a Rogue if the Rogue gets in close and get's the jump is a Soul Link Warlock. Any other is going to die, even in epic to epic gear.

Anyway, Hunters still have a clear advantage over Rogues. To even argue elsewise is rediculous. It's just not as blatant anymore.

That is what Foils are about Quark. As a Rogue, you have a cleared advantage over Mages and Priests and most Warlocks. The Rogue was designed for Anti-cloth duty when it comes to PvP. What's so hard to believe that another class(es) are designed for anti-Rogue duty?

It isn't like FF. FF prevents Stealth completely. As in I click Stealth and get an "Immune" message on my screen. Faerie Fire also has a shorter duration and can't be cast from 100 yards away.

You're right, it isn't like FF, but, it is ment to track something for the player. Read the skill sometime.

It's a complete joke to put HM up on a Rogue. It's no longer a "haha, GG rogue go home!" button too. Use your other abilities. Don't say you don't have them.

Have you paid attention to anything I said about classes being foils of each other? Every class was designed with a particular role in mind in PvP. By changing Vanish in this way, they are taking away one of the Rogue's foils.
