Rogue is more an thief with a little help from magic.. My vision is like elite thief/assassin relying on magic. Making himself look like an shadow, climbing on walls and ceilings with ease, dropping from roof behind the guard without noise and stabbing him with devastating strike. Magically enchancinh his senses and using spells to aid combat.
I don't want magic to be answer to everything, it's just aid to art of thivery and assassination. But i don't think rogue is magical enough.. It would be good choice, but with the whole campaing being about those thieves, it just isn't good enough.
I think i go with codex... and find work:D
