she will be almost as bad as majiya when more weapons come out, but i am not sure when/if they plan on releasing them, considering the speed of card releases to date.

There is no weapon for rogue in this game yet.. how can she deal any damage to a hero? She can't even damage to anyone. Pointless!

1) there is one weapon
2) she will be changed soon, so it doesn't really matter anyway.

Which weapon is the rogue weapon? I just browse through the card list again last night, and I didn't find it.

I like the how she is right now but they are changing anyway.

needs more weapon but its not like majiya simply put out an amour and the ablity doesnt work it so easy to counter it

I like her. She's my first hero. The poisoned Throwing Knife gives me ongoing benefits against other heroes. The poison effect cannot be removed.

I love Rogues but here is why I don't use this one and probably still won't use her in 1.29

1-Her hero ability is too expensive. Almost every other weapon based hero ability only costs 3 SE and last till the start of your next turn. In Serena's case it costs 4 SE.

2-Her hero ability burns out too quickly. It only lasts till your turn is over leaving no chance for you to dissuade your weapon carrying opponent from attacking you from fear of discarding a second time or taking any extra damage. Practically every other Hero weapon ability lasts till the start of your next turn.

In my opinion Defender should be added. Defender would add some major synergy to Serena and her weapon ability since it would allow her to attack first when she's on the receiving end of an attack. Imagine her with a +2 attack weapon and defender. This would be enough to dissuade players from attacking with allies without totally denying them the opportunity of dealing damage like a couple of other heroes I could name... [cough] woulves [/cough] It would also be a good alternative to giving double attack like so many other heroes already have. If not in the ability itself I think there should be some way to add defender to Serena's arsenal. Perhaps with these additions she could actually get more than one use per game out of the tragically underused Night Prowler.
