Burglar
Overview

Gameplay
Burglars are masters of debuffing, skills that cause foes to deal less damage, or be easier to defeat. They utilize their Trick skills to debuff foes, and can later remove the Tricks for additional benefits. Burglars also have stealth skills, and are proficient in initiating Fellowship Manoeuvres. In Fellowships, a Burglar supports his or her allies by debuffing foes, while dealing respectable damage.
Depending on the fight you’ll be yellow or blue in group settings. Either focus on support, debuff or CC. Inbetween your main role you can still add agood deal of damage.
Stealthing around or going straight in as a red dps. In solo play you can choose, but in instances there will too much aoe and puddles to sneak around.
Difficulty
Burglars have always been an odd one in the class balance with their stealth. They have been made quite decent at small aoe attacks in the last few years.
You’ve a lot of skills to balance, respond to or force crits to open up your next skills. While normally classed as a Moderate difficult class it’s more advanced then a Beorning. Medium armour, positional damage (reduced recently) and having to be in range for your support role makes the class easy to mess up.
