    Double Jump

    Hello, community!

    Wouldn't it be cool if rogues could be allowed to double jump, just like demon hunters?
    I mean, rogues should be the very archetype of mobility and agility.

    I do understand that demon hunters' concept of freedom in movement should represents uniqueness in the game.
    But I also think it would be rather reasonable to have such a class passive implemented in an important class like rogue, in my opinion, wherein infiltration and environment control is pretty essential for a sneaky agent.

    No demon wings, which means no glide of course; but that could be pretty much fixed with engineering!

    Nah, let rogues stick with increased movement speed, fall damage reduction and passive dodge chance. Don't take away something unique from the DH.

    Double jump is an ability rooted in the use of magic, not mobility. No matter how agile an acrobat is, he can’t just jump twice in the air.

    The archetype of Rogues is a shadowy ganker who sprints and shadowsteps and makes himself magic immune while griefing people and using the spit emote. I'm fine with it moving away from "agile leather assassin creed martial artist" fantasy.

    I think it would be cool if they had the ability to leap from a wall, like jump up a wall, press jump again to launch yourself from the wall. Not super useful but I bet it could look cool with proper animations!

    no, but you heavily implied it, you listed three things (two of which are in fact unique to us) and said, "we got all this why take something from DHs"

    so yeah, either you ment to say that and now yoU're backing down, or you really phrased that post wrong.

    He said, "we got all this, why take something UNIQUE from DHs"

    Very big difference in what he said. He was simply saying rogues have enough, don't have them copy another class and make that class lose their defining and unique ability.

    Well, most classes have some way of increasing movement speed but usually involves taking a talent or is just a cd, rogues just get it automatically. Ill be honest though, I did forget that their mastery gave movement speed; however I believe Vengeance doesn't have the same effect.

    It's cool but it's not fit with our class fantasy.
    Each class gotta have his own fantasy, so don't take the one of DHs.

    Oh my god, I have never thought about this!
    It is a wonderful idea!

    Allow double jump if your first jump hits a wall, ala bouncing off the wall.

    Otherwise, let DH keep their fun.

    Yet it would serve virtually no purpose at all. In what circumstance would that be beneficial at all lol? What would it accomplish?
