Pve too tanky?

[[FRK]Wheat-Woman]

I feel like i am missing something, now this isn't a rage post, I know i am just not good. However, I feel like I was fighting a skeleton as a rouge and hit it easily 10+times but it killed me, i played poor but that many hits? If this is me I accept it but I want to check.

Headshots shorten the fight considerably. Also, killing mobs with starting equipment shouldnt be expected to be a breeze. The traders sell white quality weapons often with a way better base damage roll for like 6 gold. IT is worth it. Other than that, it is just about learning to deal with each enemy with your chosen class. I promise you, it doesnt take long.

If you use poison weapon, your Q as the poison weapon thing, and also increased back hits or dagger proficiency it isn't that many hits to kill it. Also, get 1 hit off, step back during his attack animation, then right when he swings step up and hit him 2-3 times before stepping back again. That way you don't have to worry about it. Keep in mind that Rogues tend to do the least amount of hand to hand damage unless they're sneaking or back stabbing in almost every game out there.

The grey rondel dagger you start with is shockingly bad. replace it asap.

Rogues stabbing weapons are weaker against undead (or at least feel like it) and very short reach these two things combined end up making it a very rough engagement, it wolud be nice if rogues got some blunt tools to deal with barrels and things like skellies though

Okay, thanks you all! I was not doing well at aiming for the head so that could definitely be a major issue.

It will still feel like the enemy is too tanky, just not too difficult. Unless you get surrounded.

Rogue is not friendly to new player. Try barbarian learn the enemies attack pattern and how to dodge. barbarian is much more tanker and have higher damage

Not quite true. The best class for a new player is one that fits their playstyle. For me, Rogue was the easiest. Barbarian felt like I was trying to swing a 2x4 underwater.

So the best thing a new player can do is try all the classes to find the best fit.

Rogue's starting weapons are probably the worst starting weapons in the game for PvE, by a wide margin, especially against the skeletons and zombies.

Hell, I'd say that, rogue with grey quality weapons vs white quality weapons is a fairly noticeable difference compared to other classes getting a similar upgrade

The ranger bow is also horrible. Barbarian weapon is kind of ok.

it is fun as long as you can avoid any good player to get in melee range, unless you spec spear, but you will not be as good in range.
