Thank you. At the time of asking I was starting anew. Since then I have got as far as Emerald Grove and I am about to get help from Nettie. I realise now that as a Rogue character it is very much more a tactical game than it is as a fighter in my other BG 3 game I am also doing.
I am enjoying my Astarian game but I am not used to playing tactical. It is a whole new experience and so far I am doing okay ish. Somebody recommended I sub class as a thief. Is that correct or should I leave it as Arcane Trickster?
