Hi group! I decided to post to the blog like we talked about in class rather than send emails. Here is some of the stuff I found for the rogue character:

-Primary advantage is their stealth ability which prevents other players from seeing them unless they are very close (stealth can be improved through talents, items, and enchantments, both to decrease the chance of being detected, and to increase movement speed.)

-Another big attribute is the rogue’s agility…able to vanish at the lightest distraction

-Best for players who like to sneak up on enemies …good for stalking

-Possess a large range of kills

-Ideal spies

-Have the ability to lock pick which allows locked chest, lock boxes, and doors to be opened

Our team has chosen World of Warcraft as our game to research. It should be interesting to see how our thought and interpretations compare to the other teams who have also chosen this same game.

Our group is doing World of Warcraft. I have no clue about this but hey it should be fun and yay I get to be Project Manager. We have a lot of great ideas and it helps someone knows about it to go over the fine details…Looks like I have some research to do this weekend!!!
