Rift Rogue

Rift Rogue Strategy Guide which includes a breakdown of souls, equipment, must-do quests, a complete leveling guide, info on mechanics, spells, PvP and more. Rogue Souls Vote for your favorite Rogue soul!.  Rogue Gameplay Rogues are most at home skulking around the edges of battle, waiting for the perfect moment to strike with overwhelming force and minimal chance of counterstrike.  Remember, these can always be changed end-game to whatever you want, but for now I would keep them here, as they will be the most efficient for leveling your rogue The Bard is going to be your best bet for a low level rogue.
Rogue can match any warrior and may have an advantage to overcome their strengths. Rogue's abilities were passed over from master to master, as it was handed over to a new generation, it evolved for the better or became more polished by forming new techniques and approaches that were far more better than before.
Well, there are a total of eight different souls for the Rift Rogue and you can always equip three suls at one time. Depending on your combination of souls, you can change the build of your character enabling you to tackle any situation.

Assassin Soul - This soul has the ability to walk in the shadows, which allow you to  navigate your way through mobs without being detected. The Assassin soul is ideal for solo questing or leveling because you can pick off opponents one at a time.

Bard Soul - The Bard soul has the ability to cast buffs, heal parties and reduce the damage given by your enemy. If you want to play a supporting role in your party, equipping the Bard soul is a good idea.
Ranger Soul - The Ranger soul allows you to summon a pet that can help inflict a lot of DPS on your enemies. Not only can they summon pets, Ranger's can also increase damage, critical strike, doge and hit points temporarily.


Blade Dancer Soul - This soul is known for their burst damage. Blade Dancer's can inflict a lot of damage in a short period of time. However, the skills to inflict burst damage have a long cold time.

Riftstalker Soul - The Riftstalker is the tanking soul for the Rogues. This tanking soul is not as powerful as the Warrior's tanking abilities, however it is better than the Justicar soul of the Cleric class.

Saboteur Soul - The Saboteur soul is perfect if you want to CC targets. This soul is also very good if you want to PVP, however it is not ideal if you want to PVE or solo.

Marksman Soul - This soul can deal the most damage among the Rogue classes. They specialize in ranged DPS and hit-run skills. This is an ideal PVP soul to use.


Now that you have a basic understand of what each soul does, we can further discuss the best combination of souls to help you tackle solo or group play.
