Spirit Healer: The Spirit Healer is the shaman, the curer and ‘paramedic’ of the party.

When it comes phệ one on one combat, rogues are simply unmatched ; their tốc độ và wits outclass the strength và power of warriors và mages alike. Be it an archer or a deadly assassin, all rogues have one similarity : cunningness .
The use of the environment is their skill, & taking advantage of the enemy’s mistake is their hobby. Whether they are raining arrows from a distant or slashing at enemies with their nifty daggers at immense tốc độ, rogues will always make it look classy & professional .

While working in groups, they rely on communication, not through the tongue, but through simple understanding, & hint the enemies ’ weaknesses lớn one another, allowing a precision-styled execution phệ take place .

Shadow: As the name suggests, Shadow Rogues do the job in the shadows, and their primary weapon is stealth. Poisoning, back-stabbing and stealing are their expertise.

These rogues look to work solo and always try to find ways to finish their enemies while making sure they weren’t seen or heard.
