↖ Why This Rogue Build Reigns Supreme
The Penot Rogue has shown time and time again that it's worth using. In this guide though we'll be focusing on recent refinements that have further unlocked its potential. Here's what sets it apart:
- Specialization: Every aspect of this build is fine-tuned for Gauntlet challenges. For instance, it achieves precisely 11k armor, the exact cap needed for level 124 monsters in the Gauntlet, ensuring no wasted stats.
- Speed and Mobility: With three agility skills boasting low cooldowns and a movement speed that often hits the 200% cap, this Rogue build is like a whirlwind on the battlefield.
- Devastating Area Damage: Capable of one-shotting elite packs with Penetrating Shot and decimating bosses with a quick skill switch to Rapid Fire or a few more Penetrating Shots, this build is as lethal as it is swift.
↖ Gameplay Loop and Strategy
This next section will help you master how to play with this expert rogue warrior and maximize their effectiveness. Begin by using Puncture so you can stack combo points then Precision Stacks before finally sending out your powerful Penetrating Shot. You should try getting four punctures done on elite packs, but only three on trash mobs since they're weaker anyways.
You should always gather up large enemy groups before attacking them since that will optimize Penetrating Shot's impact.
Use Shadow Imbuement against all enemy types when possible. If you're using Godslayer Crown, stun an elite pack member with Shadow Step before attacking to trigger the crown's pulling effect and T-bolts Will buff.
Make sure you use Dash often to get through dungeons quicker, and Concealment is a key skill that can be used for multiple things like reducing Shadow cooldowns with Silence Aspect and Nightstalker Glyph, and as a crowd control break against stuns and freezes.
↖ Gear Selection and Optimization
The gear you wear is extremely important. You'll want items that help you meet the 11k armor cap and max out resistances without putting too much focus on just one stat. Here are some key pieces to look for yourself:
- Boots: Prioritize movement speed and resistances.
- Chest Plate: Look for total armor and your missing resistance (if not covered by boots).
- Amulet: Focus on total armor, movement speed, cooldown reduction, and possibly + ranks to Agile skills.
If finding perfect gear isn't something you can do right now or if you want to take on higher nightmare tiers then consider swapping out T-Bolts Will with legendary pants with total armor affixes.
↖ Skills and Paragon Board & Build Planner
You should always try mixing up your damage/mobility skills so there's more variety in the way you play this character. Skills like Puncture, Penetrating Shot, Rapid Fire (for bosses), Dash, Concealment, Shadow Step will work great together. The way you lay out your Paragon board will vary depending on what gear choices you went with. So make sure it makes sense once it's all set up!
