Attacks from Hide

All of these amazing real life comparisons in recent rogue threads got me thinking about skills.

I believe any attack made from hide should be a guaranteed critical hit. I mean, the targetted player or monster never sees it coming right, because rogues are invisible due to hide. The skill used should therefore be a critical, how can you defend against something you cannot see coming?

Let's have fun with this.

If that's the case, then any attack made from behind should also be a guaranteed critical hit. Imagine a warrior thrusting his sword into someone from behind, or a mage surprising someone with his fireball where it's least expected.

fireballs aren't real, so they shouldn't do any damage.

Wind arrows are a silly idea. I mean you are making arrow out of wind? How much is that going to hurt?

Ummm... what is the thread about?

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

In that case, Knights should be immune to all Rogue attacks. I mean, what can you do against armour with a tiny butterknife? :P

And all ranged attacks should have a 99% chance to miss against someone in max speed buffs... wait, speed buffs might have to be disabled too... :eek:

I know some people who can do some serious damage with wind and it's not even arrows! Some have even been known to hospitalise small children!

Wait, the first thread where someone mentions the word "Rogue" that is a not flame-fest within the first 5 posts? *marks day in calendar*.

Okay, continue for now, but really, this is pretty much landing in the offtopic section of the forum later ;)

Humm attacking from Invisibility towers in siege should also give critical hits unless of course they foresee my physic arrow before its arrival.

I would have to agree with Djed on this any attack from behind should be a critical hit.

Those with a high parry rating though could potentially "sense" the attack coming, and block it.

The last thing this game needs is the most OP class getting even more buffs.

Hm I guess you are right Ella on using premed. Maybe instead of guaranteed critical, hits from hide should ignore defense.

I got an even better idea. Each rogue should get a new ability called "Smack Cam". It would give 10,000% crit and can be given from hide, but the attack can only be given to the face and can only target from a distance of 2. So the rogue would have to get close, aim the attack, and then hit it in the face while saying "Smack Cam!"

Another thing, mages should be able to use hammers because we have a lightning root/mini attack, and since Thor uses his hammer to conjure lightning bolts so should mages. Scouts should be given guns, wardens should be given leashes, and the priest's fairy should have a skill that provides immunity for a group for up to 10 seconds.

And BB, fireballs are real... just ask any doctor at a free clinic.
