Oh no, they will not do that and rightly so. Skill checks aren't hard-locked behind classes in 5E and it will remain that way. Rogues are glass cannon skill monkeys in 5e. Larian still has a lot of work to do to get Rogues working right.


And this is why I doubt that I would play a rogue in this game because to me the rogue just doesn't work right at all.
It's slowly moving in the right direction with the removal of the backstab advantage, and the adjustments to the bonus actions characters can do. Hopefully, if/when Larian introduces Bards it will come with Expertise as well.
