Rogue class early game

Is it just me or is the rogue class in the start of the game very weak. I don’t have that problem with the other classes but when i play rogue i constantly need health potions and even then i die a lot. It feels like she takes more damage and does less damage than the other classes early on.

I just spam acid flask on everything until lvl 20 or so

Watch your feet, there is shift, and decoy if you use it while it feels squishy its only for a few levels TBF

It’s getting better, i have cinder strike unlocked and have a bow with extra fire damage. Still i think she needs a little work. Yes you have shift but it has a long cooldown so that doesn’t help much. I feel she can get strong, it’s just not fun starting out and dying to every elite you encounter. Her starting stats and skills should be reviewd imo.

Puncture used to be the best way to level a rogue, back in the day. I don’t know how that changed since then.

I felt like my rogue was better than my acolyte at the low levels- just toss acid flask and build up dots wherever you can.

I made an origami cannon (Monk )and when i got to 27 i went unarmed. I mostly just dodge and use flasks while boosting my damage - My cinder strike tooltip at level 51 shows 10,751
My fire resist is 67 and that’ only because of unique and the rest of them are under 30% - have 0 resist in necrotic and void

Focus on the flask. Remember, ye can always change thine ability specialization later. If ye will want, of course. Builds through the flask are cool.
