'''{{Anchor|Trapfinding}}:''' Rogues (and only rogues) can use the [[SRD:Search Skill|Search]] skill to locate [[SRD:Traps|traps]] when the task has a [[SRD:DC|Difficulty Class]] higher than 20.
Finding a nonmagical [[SRD:Traps|traps]] has a [[SRD:DC|DC]] of at least 20, or higher if it is well hidden. Finding a magic [[SRD:Traps|trapstrap]] has a [[SRD:DC|DC]] of 25 + the level of the spell used to create it.
Rogues (and only rogues) can use the [[SRD:Disable Device Skill|Disable Device]] skill to [[SRD:Disarm|disarm]] magic traps. A magic [[SRD:Traps|trapstrap]] generally has a [[SRD:DC|DC]] of 25 + the level of the spell used to create it.
A rogue who beats a trap’s [[SRD:DC|DC]] by 10 or more with a [[SRD:Disable Device Skill|Disable Device]] check can study a trap, figure out how it works, and bypass it (with her party) without disarming it.
'''{{Anchor|[[SRD:Evasion and Improved Evasion#Evasion|{{Anchor|Evasion}}]]}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 2nd level and higher, a rogue can avoid even magical and unusual attacks with great agility. If she makes a successful [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throw]] against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save, she instead takes no damage. Evasion can be used only if the rogue is wearing light armor or no armor. A [[SRD:Helpless|helpless]] rogue does not gain the benefit of evasion.
'''{{Anchor|Trap Sense}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):''' At 3rd level, a rogue gains an intuitive sense that alerts her to danger from [[SRD:Traps|traps]], giving her a +1 bonus on [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] saves made to avoid [[SRD:Traps|traps]] and a +1 dodge bonus to [[SRD:AC|AC]] against attacks made by traps. These bonuses rise to +2 when the rogue reaches 6th level, to +3 when she reaches 9th level, to +4 when she reaches 12th level, to +5 at 15th, and to +6 at 18th level.
''{{Anchor|Defensive Roll}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):'' The rogue can roll with a potentially lethal blow to take less damage from it than she otherwise would. Once per day, when she would be reduced to 0 or fewer [[SRD:Hit Points|hit points]] by damage in combat (from a weapon or other blow, not a spell or special ability), the rogue can attempt to roll with the damage. To use this ability, the rogue must attempt a [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throw]] ([[SRD:DC|DC]]=damage dealt). If the save succeeds, she takes only half damage from the blow; if it fails, she takes full damage. She must be aware of the attack and able to react to it in order to execute her defensive roll—if she is denied her [[SRD:Dexterity|Dexterity]] bonus to [[SRD:AC|AC]], she can’t use this ability. Since this effect would not normally allow a character to make a [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] save for half damage, the rogue’s [[#Evasion|evasion]] ability does not apply to the defensive roll.
''{{Anchor|[[SRD:Evasion and Improved Evasion#Improved Evasion|Improved Evasion]]}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):'' This ability works like [[#Evasion|evasion]], except that while the rogue still takes no damage on a successful [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throw]] against attacks henceforth , she henceforth takes only half damage on a failed save. A [[SRD:Helpless|helpless]] rogue does not gain the benefit of improved evasion.
''{{Anchor|Opportunist}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Extraordinary|Ex]]):'' Once per [[SRD:Round|round]], the rogue can make an [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]] against an opponent who has just been struck for damage in melee by another character. This attack counts as the rogue’s [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]] for that [[SRD:Round|round]]. Even a rogue with the [[SRD:Combat Reflexes|Combat Reflexes]] [[SRD:Feats|feat]] can’t use the opportunist ability more than once per [[SRD:Round|round]].
