Seems a bit weird to make a class perma invisible but allow them to do so much damage as an opener.
Shouldn’t a stealth class be a little less burst ?

I’ve been getting sick and tired of low gear rogues killing my lock simply because they can get an initial damage boost on me and avoid all the CC i can throw at them thanks to their numerous get out of jail free cards. Feral druids are no better as they’re impossible to get away from no matter what i do or where i put my portals. This also applies to sub rogues in that sense. Any class that can stealth shouldn’t have any defensives that make them nearly impossible to counter once they start their burst on you.

exactly why i just give up fighting rogues because blizz gives them so much damage for little effort.

yeah, sadly they only balance around arenas from what I hear.
rogue is really strong in arena, but they r more prone to having their opener shut down by team mates
in bg / world pvp a rogue has n insane advantage on people who r by themselves

A lot of them are also using interrupt scripts which makes it almost impossible to get a spell off without being interrupted. I know this because the juke always fails and I’ve seen a lot of talk about the kick or other interupt being keybind on their other abilities.
Yeah I mean perma stealth is easily the strongest ability in the game paired with the most control in the game, as well as top 3 burst in the game. It really doesn’t make any sense. They need to take at least one of these away from that insane kit
Sap…sap…sap…blind…then kaboom…dead
one of my favorite things to do in BGs is find a person whos all alone in the middle of the field and sap sap sap kidney ( hit them a few times to reset DRs) blind sap sap sap kidney
lol so much CC

Believe it or not, there was a time Sub rogue at least, used to require some skill to be any good at all.
The problem with Rogue now is blizzard took a powerful class and lowered the skill floor too much. The high skill floor is what kept the Rogue in check. In the past either you could play rogue well, or you couldn’t. Now look at them, super low skill floor and people are abusing the crap out of them. What a shocker…

The entire thread is about rogues, yet the title says “stealth classes”. I thought I’d see something about druids.
I think rogues become the focus because their abilities are made specifically for PvP. You don’t sap blind sap and all the other cc they have in dungeons and raids.
They are the most annoying and OP class in the game imo.
I wish they would all just die

I had the benefit of playing with/against one of the best rogues on the server. I dueled him pretty often and learned alot about rogue capabilities 1v1. Did I beat him? Not, not alot, because again, he was one of the very best.
But when I ran into a rogue who was geared but subpar? Yes I could beat them. Subpar and subpar? Damn right. I knew enough about rogue style to be able to do this.
Is there something keeping you from doing this?
Those things used to be a very important part of running dungeons. I still use blind in encounters like the dog guy and kael’thas in CN and use them out in world all the time.
It makes sense to me, their entire fantasy is that they speak up and do massive damage and then disappear.
Edit: however I do think that that thing that makes their target immune to saves is annoying.
That’s all fine and dandy but if you can cloak of shadows for 5 seconds and kill your enemy before the cloak wears off, your class is broken.
I’m a guardian, a stealth class. Where’s my burst?
NO.
