Diablo 4 - New class Rogue introduced

At this year's BlizzCon, Blizzard let the curtain fall and revealed in a cinematic trailer which class will next enrich the hero roster of Diablo IV. Although many fans hoped for a paladin or the Amazon from the second part, the hero reveal should not have disappointed. After all, a very old acquaintance is coming back - the huntress, who is called Rogue in English.

Already in Diablo 1 players could move with a Rogue into the throat of hell to fight against the lord of darkness and his minions. Since then, however, the huntress has learned a few new tricks. While she was a pure long-range fighter at the beginning, she has turned into a lightning-fast fighting machine. With the bow and crossbow in long-range combat or with the knives in close combat, she gives the monsters a good beating. In addition, she has a special ability with which the Rogue can find weaknesses in the opponent for a short moment. When she attacks at the right moment, she causes immense damage.

But the Rogue has also taken a few tricks from the assassin from Diablo 2 and the demon hunter from part 3. She can, for example, lay traps or poison her weapons with deadly toxins. In addition, she can pull her enemies into a shadow world for a short time to kill them silently.

What do you think of the Rogue as a new hero in Diablo 4? Is she a good reinforcement of the heroes known so far or just a nice idea? Leave a comment and share your opinion.
