Diablo 4: High Damage Rogue Build Guide

Welcome to the Diablo 4 Flurry Rogue Build. This is a melee-focused version of the Rogue class which is designed to be fairly easy to play and has high mobility and AOE damage too. This build guide will tell you how to create this build. 

Skills

    Puncture (Basic Skill)
    This is a very useful basic skill for this build, as it gives you Energy and renders enemies Vulnerable. It also has a high attack speed which can be utilized to quickly build up Combo Points to empower your other skills.

    Flurry (Core Skill)
    Flurry synergizes perfectly with the Rogue’s Combo ability and can spread the Vulnerable debuff to many enemies at once, giving you 20% bonus damage to those enemies. In addition, you can get some very nice healing from Enhanced Flurry, provided you damage.

    Shadow Step
    This is a great mobility skill, allowing you to quickly get in and out of melee combat. You also get the Unstoppable buff which prevents you from being Crowd Controlled, and cures any such effects already on you.

    Dark Shroud
    This is your main defensive skill, granting up to 40% damage mitigation during combat. You definitely want to make sure that you use this skill when its cooldown runs out in order to stay healthy during combat.

    Poison Trap
    Poison Trap serves two main purposes in this build. Firstly, it dishes out some extra poison damage to enemies in an Area of Effect. Secondly, it can be used to Crowd Control several enemies at once, keeping you safe in prolonged combat.

    Poison Imbuement
    Poison Imbuement can empower your Flurry, converting its damage type to Poison damage and adding an extra Poison Damage over Time. This helps to buff the single target damage of this build, since Flurry by itself is not amazing in that regard.

Passives Skill

    Siphoning Strikes: Heal for 3% of your Maximum Life when you Critically Strike a Close Enemy.
    Stutter Step: Critically Striking an Enemy grants +15% Movement Speed for 4 seconds.
    Weapon Mastery: Gain damage bonuses when attacking, depending on your weapon type.
    Concussive: After knocking back or knocking down an enemy, gain 12% extra Crit chance against them for 3 seconds.
    Exploit: Gain +18% increased damage to Healthy and Injured enemies (Healthy enemies have over 80% Life remaining, Injured enemies have less than 35%)
    Malice: You deal 9% extra damage to Vulnerable enemies.
    Trap Mastery: When your Poison Trap or Death Trap activates, gain 12% extra Crit Chance against Vulnerable and Crowd Controlled enemies for 4 seconds.
    Haste: When at or above 50% maximum Energy, gain +15% Movement Speed. When below 50% Energy, gain +15% Attack Speed.
    Momentum (key passive): Cutthroat skills grant a stack of Momentum for 8 seconds if they hit a Stunned, Dazed or Frozen enemy, or hit any enemy from behind. While at 3 stacks of Momentum, you get 20% Damage Reduction, 30% increased Energy Regeneration, and 15% extra movement speed.

Baldur's Gate 3: 8 Best Cloaks

Image
Cloaks in Baldur's Gate 3 are a type of Armor that provides additional protection and various other bonuses to your characters. In addition, it can even entirely alter the way you play your character, all while looking stunning. There are many cloaks in the game everyone wants more; here are the best options in BG3. 1. Cindermoth Cloak The Cindermoth Cloak, as the name implies, inflicts the burning condition on any enemy that deals damage to the wearer if they are within seven feet. This trigger can be used infinitely and even includes area-of-effect spells and thrown items that don't target the wearer. Unfortunately, it has to be looted from Aelis Siryasius, which is an optional fight with a handful of moral ambiguity. 2. Reverse Rain Cloak The Reverse Rain Cloak is meant to be a prank item that is won randomly from Akabi's Wheel of Wonders. Ironically, it is an upgraded version of the Wavemother's Cloak, which has the same effect of granting immunity to Burning and re

The Difference Between Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty And Nioh

Image
Team Ninja Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, which is launching in less than a month, is also a Soulslike game. Again, like the Nioh games, this new RPG will have a mission-based structure with fairly linear levels. But it will also differ from the Nioh game in several ways. So here, we will go over a few of those differences. Setting While the Nioh games were set in Japan, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is set in China. It’s going much further back, with the game taking place in the Three Kingdoms era of China. The setting, of course, will also impact other aspects of the experience. For instance, the combat is built around Chinese martial arts, which means it will emphasize speed much more. Jump Button Importantly, there’s now a jump button! The action is speedier than Nioh, and you can do some things, such as jump into an enemy and then launch over them. This opens up another strategy in combat and exploration. Players can have more dynamic action and more freedom in terms of upcoming games. More V
