Nerfs to Whirlwind of Blades, Courage Breaker and Shadow of Demise sliced 40-60% off the old Executioner build's damage output. After years of being a fun-but-mediocre option for PvE, Rogues had finally snuck into the top tier of damage dealers.īut nothing in Neverwinter lasts forever, and the massive class rebalancing that came with The Heart of Fire expansion saw Rogues knocked back down the DPS ladder. The Lost City of Omu and Ravenloft expansions saw Rogues dishing out massive amounts of damage in PvE thanks to buffed powers, improved gear, and fresh theorycrafting. The year 2018 was a wild one for the Trickster Rogues of Neverwinter. A regular Jack-of-all-trades, Rogues are the masters of shadow, the knife in the dark, the poisoned arrow, and the silent burglers.
