Skulker is a really good feat for Rogues, as it allows you to “hide in plain sight” in areas that are dimly lit because dim light counts as being lightly obscured. This means that you can bonus action to hide right in front of the enemy, so that you get advantage because you are attacking from stealth.
When can rogues take feats?
All classes get feats at levels 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18. Fighters get extra class feats at level 1 and on every even level after that.
Is intelligence or wisdom better for a rogue?
Dexterity is key for any Rogue, and Intelligence is important for Arcane Tricksters, but your need for Wisdom and Charisma depend largely on your choice of skills and role in the party. Nothing that a typical Rogue does uses Strength.

What kind of skills do you need to be a rogue?
Charlatan: Deception and Sleight of Hand are two skills that Rogues already have access to and are great skills to have. Proficiency with forgery and disguise kits will also come in useful. Criminal: Proficiency with Stealth and Deception can help your ability to sneak around and lie, which is right up the Rogue’s alley.
Do you need hit points to be a rogue?
This guide is for the vanilla Rogue. For the Unchained Rogue, see my Unchained Rogue Handbook. Hit Points: At d8 hit points, the Rogue is fairly squishy. Because many Rogues work best in melee, hit points are a serious concern and Rogues need to be sure to keep their AC high.

This is often taken for those who wish to be more of a ranged Rogue combatant, along with other feats. Obviously this feat pairs very well with the Sharpshooter feat to extend the ranged attack of your hand crossbow.

Lightfoot halflings also gain the Naturally Stealthy trait, which lets you hide behind creatures that are larger than you, such as your human-sized party members! Elves are outstanding rogues as well for similar reasons.
