Whirling Dervish
Class Description
Some rogues and monks, especially those that belong to the Ciphers of the Transcendent Order in Sigil, choose to concentrate on their movement and speed rather than on raw damage. For those interested in following this school of thought, the Whirling Dervishes are an excellent choice.
