Soulreign, perhaps you should try and read the manuel you got when you brought the game. Perhaps my manuel is saying something else but here it goes:
"The rogue is one of the most lethal character classes in the game, able to deal out immense damage in short periode of time. The most effective rogues sneak through the shadows without detection, and then strike enemies from behind with a flurry of assassination attacks. Yet, for all their fast-hitting rogues are not very durable, relying on quickness and stealth for protection instead of armor and high health."
Now if you are looking upon the talent tree an rogue has, both the one that is in use right now and the upcomeing BC, you will notice the name of every single talent they have, there is no magic named in there names. In terms of role playing, when you choice your talents its because you have made your rogue been good to that talent, depending on much time he used to master that talent (like 3/3 on imp gouge or other talents). As the name "talent tree" says, every person has there own talents.

Stealth: The ability to conceal oneself from other's sight without staying under the cover of darkness or covering with a blanket while hugging the wall.
Sounds like magic to me.
And while we are at the topic of Mysticism, gagnsta, how do you think a Rogue can use the skill Distraction without having some small bombs in his/her bag?
Okay, shall we try and see it from the logical point of view?? If you are trying to stealth somewhere, you will always use the enviroment so people got a harder time to find you. Just try and look soldiers etc.
Distraction?? simple enough, take some dirt, small rocks or anything and throw it way. Then people will turn there attention to the sound that came from nowhere.
The only way i might some sort of "magic" an rogue has, is the racial skills, a race has and stil that is not enough. It just gives you an idea how that race is.
So Soulreign, this is an NOT critisme to you. Im just trying lay thinks out for you. Now i dont wanna go further this for now.
Edit: spelling fixed (Otherwise correct me)
