Rogue Gambits

Rogue Gambits is a skill that gives you the ability to perform different tricks, such as tumbles, flips, and cartwheels, and also gives you certain useful utility skills, such as sleight of hand, and the ability to make certain movements while hidden, without being detected. This skill is definately the easiest to train in, and many people train in it early on simply to become guildmasters more quickly.

Armor has an effect on Rogue Gambits, just like most of the other guild skills. The heavier the armor you are wearing, the harder it is to succeed. Also, being encumbered has an effect on your RT, so you will want to be sure that you are not overweight.

Rogue Gambits Training

The tasks for this skill are: Speed, learning from a fellow member, teaching a fellow member, practicing in front of an audience, and skilled masters. All the tasks give random training points and exp, within a certain margin.

Speed- With this task, you must successfully perform the current skill you are working on 4-11 times in one minute (You start off at 4-5, but the margin raises as you gain more ranks.). After your first success, it will tell you how many you must perform in the next minute. If you perform them all in less than a minute, you get a rep. This task is pretty simple for the first 49 ranks, but gets very difficult after that. At that point, if you have a training partner present, it's prolly wise to just trade it. Though the punk trainer gave it to me three times in a row a few times... ::grumbles::. This task gives you 4-7 training points.

Learning from a fellow member- In order to get reps with this task, you just need to find someone who knows the skill you are working on, and have them teach it to you. When they teach you, it will give you some RT, and once the RT is over, you must perform the skill to get the rep. This task gives 8-12 training points.

Teaching a fellow member- This task is pretty simple. All you have to do is teach someone any Rogue Gambit skill and then they must perform it once the RT wears off; the skill you teach does not matter, so even tumble will work. The command for teaching a skill is "rgambit teach (person) (skill #)". To get a list of the skill numbers, type "rgambit teach list". The nice thing about this task, is if there is someone that needs to be taught, as long as you know the skill they are working on, you can teach them that skill, and both of you will get reps from it. If you are teaching a person who is working on speed reps for that skill, they will have to get a rep after you teach them, before you will get your rep. This task gives 6-10 training points.

Practicing in front of an audience- For this task, you gotta perform the skill you are working on in front of an audience. For the first 49 ranks, you need to do it in front of at least 2 people - guild members or not. For the last ranks, you must perform it in front of at least 5 people, or two guildmasters (Or 1 guildmaster and 3 people). You can only get 1 rep every 30 seconds with this task, so you prolly wanna grab a stop watch for it or use yer mana timer. This task is not so bad at first, but it becomes a pain in the arse later on, cause you get up to 18 reps of it. This task gives 4-7 training points.

Skilled masters- This task is a breeze. You hafta perform the skill you are working on in front of a skilled master, and get a rep for each success. You get this task at the beggining of each rank when you learn a new skill, but it is also a random task recieved sometimes (Also, it will sometimes be given at the beginning of a rank, even if you aren't learning a new skill). This task gives 8-12 training points.
