    The Trickster Rogue cannot use a bow at this time (nor is it likely they ever will be able to)

    It is speculated that there will be a ranger/archer class in the game, but nothing is confirmed yet.

    It's rogues, not thieves. Unless you're playing First Edition. But, no. As it stands the only range attack we have are the throwing daggers and in the immediate future I suspect a pure melee rogue. Maybe down the line we'll get a crossbow rogue (I don't remember any of the Martial Power class builds but I'm sure there was a ranged Rogue).

    As for a ranger/archer class; coincidentally there is a class, one that is suspect to be out on launch, called the Archer Ranger which will most likely use a longbow (and probably a longsword as a sub-weapon).

    In 4th Edition the Rogue started off with the hand crossbow proficiency...maybe we'll get that weapon eventually

    Plans are to add the Archer Ranger in around the same time they make the Scourge Warlock (so I've heard). Rogues are melee.
