Can Rogue get a shadow cloak? Every character has some sort of defensive ability and Rogue has nothing at all. Since in SOD, the fights are focused on Open World PvP, most of the time the rogue can’t do much.
The STV event is almost unplayable for rogues, they are able to kill the target, but they can’t stealth again and they usually die again immediately after the kill. Fights against SP or mages are impossible to win unless it’s a 1v1. Shadow Priest can give fear for 10 seconds where he can continue to DMG, a trinket that has a CD of 5 minutes doesn’t solve this.
so most fights are about someone attacking us from a distance, and we can’t do anything about it. Since CDs are slow hourly, Shadowstep has a global CD.

Dps is dogshi in pve , 0 burst in pvp! 0 utility or def cooldowns and tank Runes are A joke.
3 Runes req where other classes take 1 Rune that does the same as our 3 Runes passive while we have «buildup» time for them to Even work!
Whole class is A meme atm

I agree. Rogue is the worse PvP class atm, the only contender is a solo warrrior.
Rogues need good runes in P3/4 since we got only trash tier rune (while shamans are going rampant with Way of Earth)

Stop asking for PvP buffs
You are not weak, you are just above average now after 20 years of being the best. Get used to it

It’s not about being weak, I didn’t say that, the rogue has good damage and Utility potential, but its impossible to use it in world PVP. It is not about being weak or strong, it’s about that we can’t even play. In world PVP many Mages, Druids and priests are somewhere on platforms spamming AO or ranged abilities and we can’t do anything about it. In 1 v 1 situation, they have every single movement ability, or fear, dots. And Rogues has a single Shadowstep on GCD.
In actual WPvP noone spams anything beforehand, you find a person in stealth and kill them within your chainstun
What you describe sounds more like the STV event, which is an event where all melees suck in general and which will be irrelevant in 2 weeks
There is no way that you would be able to kill the majority of 40 geared players within your chainstun.
But 100% you can kill rogue if you are a Mage, Priest, hunter or druid when you see them. Even Warlock with his genius laser.

The king of griefers Pshero is still out there obstructing people’s gameplay just as efficiently as before, effortlessly killing 2-3 at once / back to back. You will only have trouble killing people with tanking runes (tanking rune problem, not rogue problem) or retri paladins (rogue counters).
This is a WPvP “feature”. Who sees first, wins. Has always been like that. Not a very good concept but again, nothing to do with rogues
effortlessly killing 2-3 at once. Yeah, that is nonsense, it’s not effortlessly at all. Also, would like to point out, that PShero is the kinda guy who has spent his whole life playing classic wow and wow at all. Kinda absurd to make him as your point of view.
Also back to the STV event, that event is unplayable for rogues, that cloak could help them at least participate and be able to do SMTH. That stealth or vanishing and staying in the stealth thanks to being able to clear dost is valuable.

You do not need to have Pshero’s skill to kill people in WPvP as a rogue left and right
STV should not be taken into consideration when balancing classes because it is effectively a limited-time event that will be irrelevant soon

Same as for all classes, both melee and ranged
Oh yeah sure, while every single ranged class can easily and freely fight from the distance to being able to spam AOEs, rogue has to actually face the target., So I have to use every single cd to be able to kill one person and die, other classes can camp textures from a distance and when there is any threat for them they have Ice block, fear etc. So they cane have “fun”, but when rogues want one defensive ability, then it’s wrong.

Honestly i hope rogues never get cloak of shadows, this get out of jail card is so annoying. You are one of the classes who gets dotted and it is doomed to die but you are not the only one. Saddly you are a melee dps in a caster meta

Its my first rogue character ever, i dont care about 20 years. if you have ptsd from rogues than its not our fault.
I understand. You want to be unkillable, get out of the fight when you are in a bad spot, and come again later with all your CDs ready. With a cloak again if something goes wrong. It sounds very reasonable and balanced in the game where you spend your most time in the world. What a fair feature.

And I’m sure you want it on a slot where you get to have Shadow Step as well. As long as the rogue hits this hard(h ttps://snipboard.io/trgYz8.jpg) you don’t need Cloak of Shadows at all, a lot of classes barely make it out of Kidney Shot if they don’t have the trinket off cooldown or some way to break it.
A lot of classes barely make it out of kidney? What is this nonsence?
Meta lock will be at 80% pv after kidney, 70 % for a WoE shaman/spriest/druid in bear
And then the rogue is smoked.
Rogues are too squishy and can’t pull of 2K3 damage in a global like shammy does
Yes its nonsense for druid to wear cloth. And mage not using frost/mana shield and frost armor. how crazy this world is.
Oh no, you won’t kill a tank with physical damage in stunlock; it is unplayable.
