Hey /v/ quick question, would a Rogue type of character use a shield?
some rogue archetypes would use a buckler at most
>>750162268A second knife.
Parrying dagger
A buckler is acceptable
>>750162268A small buckler, the one that can be used offensively to punch someone in the face or to disarm.
Dual wield bucklers from the shadows
>>750162268>RogueThe correct answer is: a rogue would, if it gave them an advantage over the opponent.
>>750162268One of those little bucklers with a blade on the end like gladiators used to use.
>>750162268Dual wield bucklers for each knee and elbows
>>750162268Maybe not a stealthy guy, but I've played mercenary-type fighter/rogues that use shields.
>>750162268Yeah sure.I'd give them one extra thick vambrace to serve as a "shield" that keeps their hands free.
Fuck these fags, go for the tower shield
>>750162268Rogue is primarily a shitty DND conceptThe entire idea is 'le hecking thief that can le hecking fight'Yes, you can have a fucking heavy armoured rogue with a fucking towershield
>>750163504>About to get spotted by a city guard>Hide behind tower shield>"Nothing here..."It's genius.
>>750163591Tower shield painted to look like a barrel.
>>750162268It can, but it needs to be a buckler or something else small enough to be hidden in the cloak.
>>750162268targe
>>750162268The shadows are his shield.
>>750162268Yeah, carry around as much clanking metal and creaking leather as possible.
