Rogue Talent	Prerequisites	Description
Canny Observer		When a character with this talent makes a Perception check, they gain a +4 bonus. This is generally worse than Skill Focus (Perception), but stacks with it.
Combat Trick		A character that selects this talent gains a bonus combat feat.
Fast Stealth		This ability allows a character to move at full speed using the Stealth skill without penalty.
Focusing Attack - Confused	Sneak Attack	When the character is confused and hits a creature with a melee attack that deals sneak attack damage, the character is no longer confused.

Improved Uncanny Dodge	Eldritch Scoundrel level 12 Bard level 12 Skald level 12 Slayer level 12	Gain the Improved Uncanny Dodge class feature: The character can no longer be flanked. This defense denies another rogue the ability to sneak attack your character by flanking her, unless the attacker has at least 4 more rogue levels than the target does.
Intimidating Prowess		Gain Intimidating Prowess as a bonus feat: Add your Strength modifier to Persuasion (intimidate) checks in addition to your Charisma modifier.
Iron Guts		A character with this talent has a cast-iron stomach or has trained themselves to withstand poisons, especially ingested ones. They gain a +1 bonus on all saves against poisons as well as a +4 bonus on all saves against all spells and effects that that cause the character to be nauseated or sickened.
Jump Up		A rogue with this talent does not provoke attacks of opportunity when standing up from prone.
Mystery Seeker	Not Master of All	A rogue with this talent adds Knowledge (arcana) to her list of class skills.
Skill Focus		Gain Skill Focus as a bonus feat: Choose a skill. You get a +3 bonus on all checks involving the chosen skill. If you have 10 or more ranks in that skill, this bonus increases to +6.
Slow Reactions	Sneak Attack	Opponents damaged by the character's sneak attack cannot make attacks of opportunity for 1 round.
Survivalist	Not Master of All Not Sylvan Trickster	A rogue with this talent adds Lore (nature) to her list of class skills.
Terrain Mastery		A rogue with this talent gains a favored terrain, as the Ranger class feature of the same name, but the bonus does not increase with her level. In Kingmaker it was added with Varnhold's Lot DLC
Trailblazer		A rogue with this talent gains immunity to difficult terrain.
Unbalancing Trick		The rogue gains Trip as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites.
Uncanny Dodge	Eldritch Scoundrel level 4 Bard level 4 Skald level 4 Slayer level 4 Feyform Shifter level 4	Uncanny Dodge: The character cannot be caught flat-footed, nor does she lose the Dexterity bonus to Armor Class if the attacker is invisible. She still loses the Dexterity bonus to Armor Class if immobilized, or if an opponent successfully uses the feint action against her.
Underhanded Trick		A rogue who selects this talent gains Dirty Trick as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites.
Weakening Wound	Sneak Attack Feyform Shifter	When making a sneak attack against a creature that has damage reduction, the character's attack reduces that damage reduction for two rounds by an amount equal to the character's level. This penalty to damage reduction doesn't stack. Also reduces enemy Energy Resistance. (Last Version bug was seen:2.7.0x) (Wrath of the Righteous)
Weapon Focus	Base Attack Bonus 1	Gain Weapon Focus as a bonus feat: Choose one type of weapon. You gain a +1 bonus on all attack rolls you make using the selected weapon.

Advanced Rogue Talents[]

When choosing a new rogue talent, a character with the Advanced Talents class feature can choose an advanced rogue talent instead.

Rogue Talent	Prerequisites	Description
Blinding Strike	Character Level 15, Doesn't have the feat Blinding Critical	A character who selects this talent gains the feat Blinding Critical, even if she doesn't meet the prerequisites. In Kingmaker it was added with Varnhold's Lot DLC
Confounding Blades	Slow Reactions	When a character with this talent hits a creature with a melee weapon that deals sneak attack damage, the target cannot make attacks of opportunity for 1d4+1 rounds.
Crippling Strike	Sneak Attack	A character with this talent can sneak attack opponents with such precision that the blows weaken and hamper them. An opponent damaged by her sneak attacks also take 2 points of Strength damage.
Dispelling Attack	Sneak Attack	An opponent that is dealt sneak attack damage by a character with this ability is affected by a targeted dispel magic affecting one of the spell effects active on the target. The caster level for this ability is equal to the character's level.
Double Debilitation	Debilitating Injury	Whenever the character inflicts a penalty against a target using the Debilitating Injury class feature, they can select two penalties to inflict. The target can never be subject to more than two penalties in this way at one time. If any additional penalties are inflicted, any previous penalties immediately end. Any effect that heals damage to the target negates both of the penalties. The feature lets you select two Debilitating Injuries, but you still cannot apply more than one effect at a time (Last Version bug was seen:2.1.7b) (Kingmaker) Fixed by Kingmaker Bugfixes mod (fixed version increases duration of the old penalty that should remain while adding a new one).
Emboldening Strike	Sneak Attack, Sneaky Tricks	When a character with this talent hits a creature with a melee attack that deals sneak attack damage, they gain a +1 circumstance bonus on saving throws for every 2 sneak attack dice rolled (minimum +1) for 1 round.
Familiar		A rogue with this talent gains a familiar as the familiar option of the wizard's arcane bond class feature. In Kingmaker it was added with Varnhold's Lot DLC
Hunter's Surprise		Once per day, a rogue with this talent can designate a single enemy she is adjacent to as her prey. Until the end of her next turn, she can add her sneak attack damage to all attacks made against her prey, even if she is not flanking it or it is not flat-footed.
Improved Evasion	Evasion	This works like evasion, except while the character still takes no damage on a successful Reflex saving throw against an attack, they also take only half damage on a failed save. A helpless character does not gain the benefit of improved evasion.
Opportunist		The character can make an attack of opportunity against an opponent who has just been struck for damage in melee by another character. This attack counts as an attack of opportunity for that round and can't be used more than once per round.
Petrifying Strike	Sneak Attack, Sneaky Tricks	A character with this ability can sneak attack opponents with such precision that their blows slow and hamper them. An opponent damaged by one of their sneak attacks also takes 2 points of Dexterity damage.
Skill Mastery — Knowledge		The rogue becomes so confident in the use of certain skills that she can use them reliably even under adverse conditions. When making a Knowledge (world) or Knowledge (arcana) skill check, she may take 10 even if stress and distractions would normally prevent her from doing so. A rogue can choose not to take 10 and can instead roll normally.
Skill Mastery — Lore		The rogue becomes so confident in the use of certain skills that she can use them reliably even under adverse conditions. When making a Lore (nature) or Lore (religion) skill check, she may take 10 even if stress and distractions would normally prevent her from doing so. A rogue can choose not to take 10 and can instead roll normally.
Skill Mastery — Stealth and Trickery		The rogue becomes so confident in the use of certain skills that she can use them reliably even under adverse conditions. When making a Stealth or Trickery skill check, she may take 10 even if stress and distractions would normally prevent her from doing so.
