I've been reading posts about what an awesome combonation it is pairing a
bard and a rogue (written by both bards and rogues) I haven't heard so much
from other classes about great success they have with rogues. It may be
that other combonations don't work as well, so their opinions of Verants
Weakest Class haven't changed.
My low-level rogue generally gets refused for groups because those involved
are sure there must be SOMEONE out their in the right level range that would
be better for the group than me. That and the unspoken accusation that I'll
steal their loot.
