Which Builds Should You Choose To Play Rogue In Diablo 4 Season 9?

Jul 04, 2025 Author: D4gold

Although there are several classes that perform exceptionally well in each Diablo 4 season, it does not mean that other classes are not worth experiencing. In fact, each class should be valued in all seasons, otherwise it will lead to a serious imbalance in class experience.

You should have learned that the most popular classes in Season 9 should be Spiritborn or Sorcerer, but you can still play Rogue in this season as a single class enthusiast or out of preference for high agility classes.

However, the question you need to consider is how to experience Rogue smoothly in Season 9 without having an absolute advantage? We will recommend several good Rogue builds for you in order of priority based on actual conditions.

Which Builds Should You Choose To Play Rogue In Diablo 4 Season 9?

1. Twisting Blades Azurewrath Build

First of all, the most important thing for this build is that you must obtain the unique sword Azurewrath as a key gear through farm boss Duriel, Andariel, Harbinger or Belial, which can output cold damage and provide corresponding lucky hit bonuses.

On this basis, the skills that need to be matched include Caltrops and Poison Trap, which can increase your damage output, and Shadow Clone can provide additional lucky hits.

In addition, seasonal power Horadric Spells are also essential. For this build, Floaty Bobble Arcana with Dash can help you shuttle faster in battle.

If you want to utilize the build to get more Diablo 4 gold in dungeons such as The Pit, you can replace Floaty Bobble Arcana and Dash with Fractured Core and Subverting Smoke Grenade.

It is worth noting that this build is a melee build, but if you are tired of this play style, you can also change the key passive to Victimize, so that you don’t have to maintain melee distance and move more flexibly - at the consume of reduced damage output.

2. Alchemist Dance Of Knives Build

This build has performed well in Season 8, and it is a good Rogue Leveling Build in Season 9. It works similarly to the previous build in general, relying on weapons with unique sword Azurewarth as the main weapon to deal damage.

On this basis, you can continue to fuse the right skills to stack the lucky hit chance as much as possible, to trigger the fixed damage effect frequently. This will also improve the efficiency of the build’s farm resources.

The best skills and Horadric Spells selection and order for this build are as follows:

Regular combat:

  • Trigger Horadric Spells with Smoke Grenade and deals more damage.
  • Cast Shadow Imbuement and start rotating.
  • Utilize Shadow Clone & health potion every 10 seconds.

After entering the endgame:

  • Make sure Shadow Imbuement is always active.
  • Utilize Shadow Clone & health potion every 10 seconds.
  • Utilize Teleport (Evade) after each elite equipment.
  • Cast Smoke Grenade & Caltrops when facing bosses.

3. Death Trap Build

As one of the classic Rogue builds, Death Trap had a wonderful experience until Season 8, but in S9, its overall damage, unique skills, passive skills, and any super mechanism that allowed it to play an extra role were weakened.

But even in this unprecedented downturn, Death Trap is still more reliable than most ordinary Rogue builds, provided that you can accept the gap compared to previous seasons.

In terms of gameplay, this build continues the previous operating mode of fast movement + continuous Death Trap attack + sufficient damage, allowing you to keep moving while outputting damage, reflecting its high mobility.

In addition, it is recommended that you pair it with the following gear to strengthen this build as much as possible despite the nerf:

  • Heir of Perdition
  • Scoundrel’s Leathers
  • Bow of Apogeic Furor
  • Sword of Surprise
  • Frostbitten Sword
  • Trickster’s Gloves
  • Beastfall Boots
  • Eyes in the Dark
  • Ring of Starless Skies

4. Poison Trap Build

Compared to the past, the strength of this build has not changed much in Season 9, the only difference is that it has gained several available variants. If you are bored with Death Trap and don’t want to try other risky new builds, you can continue to utilize Poison Trap.

5. Penetrating Shot Build

Compared to the melee focus of other Rogue builds, this build is special in that it belongs to the ranged type and is relatively rare. Although it was not very noticeable before, it has made a strong comeback in S9, especially with the nerf of Death Trap.

As the core skill of this build, Penetrating Shot can fire a huge piercing arrow to damage the enemy, while Trickshot Aspect can further expand the range of your skills.

On this basis, you can combine Azurewrath’s cold damage affix to make Penetrating Shot Build provide you with a higher lucky hit rate in addition to the output of basic damage.

Is It Worthy To Play Rogue In Season 9?

In terms of overall strength, it is not a terrible choice to continue playing Rogue with the above builds in this season, but you need to accept the reality that it is not as reliable as in previous seasons.

In addition, as you can see, Azurewrath is the key gear that makes most Rogue builds work, compared to the latest unique item Deathmask Of Nirmitruq added in S9. So you need to clarify your farming goals as a Rogue in S9, rather than blindly pursuing novelty.

The above is the information we provide for you to experience Rogue class in Season 9 and the recommended builds. If you are a fan of this class, I hope this guide will be helpful to you!
