we rogue's have been nerfed quit a bit. I have a suggestion that would make me happy, I'm just wondering what others would think. As it current functions shadow piercer shoots us in the direction of the nearest target. I think it should shoot us in the direction we are running in. So, I'm suggesting take off the auto aim on SP and let us aim ourselves. There have been a lot of times when I'm running away from an enemy or carrying a flag and I would like to use SP but can't because I know it will shoot me backwards if an enemy is too close. I'd like to be able to shoot ahead in the direction I'm travelling.
If u want to give tanks tons of armor and health and a skill that reaches further than any of the rogues skills (plus it pulls us back and negates our crit) then give us one way to defend ourselves please.

Support too. Not only for pvp also for pve like huntlet this is good idea.

As a mage I disagree. We currently have to deal with the same fallouts and have nothing similar to this. Also if this was done warriors skyward smash would have to be adjusted. At the end of the day shadow piercer is an attack ability and not meant to enhance you're ability to run, which would make dungeon run best times even more broken...

You're saying this like it's only the rogues that have their skills shoot them back at a enemy when they try to run. When a warrior uses SS to close to a enemy when they try to run guess what happens, It shoots the right back towards them. Mages don't even have anything to use to help them flee they just waddle away on those little legs of theirs. The skills rogues and warriors use to run away aren't a fleeing skill anyway, they are attacks. Their purpose isn't for running like a little girl, so no it shouldn't be changed. It's wouldn't be fair in PvP or PvE either.

Then why we have to attack craters in hauntlet instead going forward and attack medic packs from boss? Atleast fix those two.
