Rogue Fails :( - 24/09/14 12:55 PM
I've been playing though with the new companions and while the Ranger seems to work fine, and I'm familiar with the class from my last game, the rogue ... well.
Right now I'm at level 7, still on the first map, clearing out the last sections. I kid you not, at the end of every combat the rogue is dead 50% of the time. I just can't keep this guy alive.
Combat generally goes like this. First round he goes invisible and moves up to the enemies, generally targeting mages and such. Second round he'll get in three or four back stabs (IF I CAN EVER GET HIM POSITIONED RIGHT!). That's generally it as he's dead the next round. If he does survive I have him teleport out and hide in the bushes.
The guy must have some giant 'KILL ME!' sign on his back or something as everyone seems to target him as soon as he's visible. It may be because of the major sneak attack damage he just did in his last turn, so all enemies consider him the most dangerous apparently and target him. I'm to the point now where I have to go back to town and stock up on res scrolls just for him.
So how do you guys keep him alive?
