Leveling Guide

Overview

The oft forgotten part of a burglar. Not meant for dps red or purely for (de)buffing as yellow. It provides an alternative way to play the class mostly solo. Use dps attacks to improve your odds on the”gamble” skills and use these to get different buffs such as instant damage, a stun, more bleed damage or more gamble damage. Part of its goals is removed lately with defunct fellowship manoeuvres.

A modern equivalent would be the brawler. A brawler sets up different base attacks for 1 specific finisher. A burglar uses its main attack to choose different finishers and effects.
