    One thing that bothers me is in reading the Rogue skills. Did anyone else notice that their iconic attack Sneak Attack is an incredibly potent skill, doing 500 potency damage? Yet comes with the ridiculous caveat of being utterly useless? It can't be executed in combat as it relies on Hide, so it's no use in boss fights or dungeons. Trick attack shares the same problem, and there's no traits which make it possible to use Hide in combat as it states below "The above ability descriptions are representative of a level 50 character and include enhancements from available traits."

    Kind of a downer, if you ask me.
    NIN's Suiton self-buff is supposed to make SATA usable without the need for Hide, I heard.

    EDIT: Also I don't see why you can't use it as an opener in dungeons and boss fights. It shouldn't be that hard to active Hide before a trash pull, or before your tank pulls the boss.
