<p>Despite the convention of calling it that, there is no class called 'Unchained Rogue.'

<b>but</b> one of the <b>unchained</b> talent options IS a ninja trick. and one of the ninja tricks (that as said above is allowed by the UNCHINED CLASS ABILITY) is the ninja trick 'rogue talent'. and that trick is set to take a chained rogue talent, as long as it's not a talent with the same name as a ninja talent.(which is also the unchained talent retricted backwards) so talents taht the ninja,chained and uncahined have with sme name can't be taken by this. anythin else should work fine.

what more the name thing is only if they are the same when exemening ninja to rogue anms. not chained to unchaiend so you actuly can end up with ,say, both kinds of minor magic talent, the chained and unchained kind...</p>Themetricsystem wrote:willuwontu wrote: Incorrect, it allows them to take any rogue talent (though no advanced talents).
