Let use quotes in context shall we?

No amount of skill or player design will make a rogue good. They will always be shitty. Once you realize this, you may transcend humanity
Obviously a joke. The blatant "transcending humanity" was kind of my giveaway on that.

I would reroll into a useful class.
An obvious troll attempt that Eladiun didn't care about and was likewise marked as failure. As he already has plenty of "useful classes."

Please, enlighten me, what makes a rogue useless.
I would prefer for you to enlighten me as to what makes them useful.
Besides making the decision easier on who goes into asteroids during abbot, I cannot think of a single thing rogues are good for.
Nowhere is class mentioned. I was once again, dissing rogues as a vastly proven majority.
Context is everything. Try staying with it instead of pulling it out of your ass later on.

Trapmonkey rogues are like nannybot clerics. It's nice to have one role handled well, but it's a sign of a lazy player who's still kind of shitty at playing their class and hasn't unlocked its full potential by a mile.
Rogues don't have potential. They make kickass xp getters though. Breakables? Check. Traps if there is time? Check. Secret doors if I accidentally miss one? Check.
Past that, my piss is more useful. I will make an exception for Brenna though - screw any other rogue.
ONCE AGAIN CONTEXT
Rogues are generally shit but they always break stuff and do traps. As it takes absolutely nothing to do so. Fuck mechanics are even better for it because they can break everything from the same spot the trap boxes are in some cases. Which beats running up to every single one. Secret doors? I typically get them as I round up the mobs for the mass kill.
Shitty rogues do not have potential. If they did, they wouldn't be shitty, they would be sub-par.
Context is important, it is a pretty big factor for reading comprehension. Maybe J was right.
