The '''Rogue''' is the ranged attack class in [[Diablo 1]], who is from the [[Sisters of the Sightless Eye]]. Her magic, strength and vitality are intermediate between the [[warrior]] and the [[sorcerer]]. However, her dexterity is much higher than that of the other two classes. She is the only character class who could use bows effectively, since other classes lack the dexterity needed for higher bow damage and hit percentage and are innately slow at firing missiles. Her strength is mostly for using armor since her damage comes from her dexterity. Items are often required to boost her strength so that she can equip the heaviest armor. Her magic is often used for [[Stone Curse]] and [[teleport]].

Rogue portrait
The Rogue is the ranged attack class in Diablo 1, who is from the Sisters of the Sightless Eye. Her magic, strength and vitality are intermediate between the warrior and the sorcerer. However, her dexterity is much higher than that of the other two classes. She is the only character class who could use bows effectively, since other classes lack the dexterity needed for higher bow damage and hit percentage and are innately slow at firing missiles. Her strength is mostly for using armor since her damage comes from her dexterity. Items are often required to boost her strength so that she can equip the heaviest armor. Her magic is often used for Stone Curse and teleport. Stone Curse is particularly effective at keeping enemies at a distance during the combat, while teleport is used as means to escape. Unfortunately the rogues are not effective in team games, since allies could cause damage to one another. For example, if a warrior is attacking, then she has to accurately target the monster to avoid hitting the warrior.
