Rogue / Knight

   Rogue / Knight -- The Bodyguard   

Main Way of Playing
The Rogue / Knight has a melee DPS role designed around sustained damage over time and sudden burst. Its elite skills fit the aesthetic of forcing a "fair fight" with plenty of crowd control removal, unavoidable damage, and a skill kit that penalizes classes that try to kite. This combination prioritizes Dexterity, Stamina, and Intelligence; more specifically, Physical Attack and Magical Attack, both, to maximize damage. It also prefers to dual-wield daggers, to activate Bleed effects.

Key abilities for Rogue / Knight are Shadowstab, Low Blow, Wound Attack, Blind Spot, Holy Strike, Punishment, and Disarmament.

Tips and Tactics

 * Generally speaking, the strongest burst combo against a mob is to use Shadow Prison->Shadow Step->Blind Spot->Shadowstab->Low Blow->Wound Attack spam.
 * Against some mobs, either with a resistance to Bleed or a weakness to Light, using Holy Strike with Punishment hits harder than setting up Wound Attack.
 * In PvP, Hide can be used to prepare Poison Protection, Holy Light Protection, and Courageous Guard. Use this time to waste enemy cooldowns by rendering their abilities null. Hide can also be used to set up a Bleed effect through Sneak Attack, and the stun will help with a Blind Spot.
 * While Searing Light is mutually exclusive with Poisonous, a Numbing Dagger can still help with positioning to deliver a Blind Spot.
 * Switching to Knight/Rogue can make you a very effective, critical-based off-tank that's still enjoyable to solo with.
