As a classic MMORPG, Diablo 4 series of games can provide you with a relatively comprehensive service and experience no matter from which aspect. Taking class as an example, there are currently 6 classes for you to choose from in Diablo 4, each with unique characteristics to ensure that you can choose the one that suits you.
Among these 6 classes, Rogue is a relatively old class. It has always been loved by players who pay attention to these features for its good mobility and flexibility, and thus has a good popularity.
However, it is precisely because of its excellent mobility that in order to balance the basic attributes of all classes, Rogue’s damage ability will be inferior to other classes. Therefore, if you are a Rogue player in Diablo 4 Season 6, we recommend that you can now get some good Rogue weapons through Diablo 4 Gold, and then combine them with Barrage Rogue Build to increase your damage value.
Because there is no doubt that builds are one of the important ways for Diablo 4 players to improve their combat effectiveness, and in Season of Hatred Rising, Barrage Rogue Build is one of the most effective builds for Rogue class.
Based on this, we will introduce you to how to use Barrage Rogue Build.
Best Barrage Rogue Build Skill Unlock Order
For Barrage Rogue Build, there are a lot of active and passive skills to unlock from level 1 to level 50. You’d better master these skills in the corresponding order to get the best Barrage Rogue Build upgrade experience. Here is the best skill unlock order for the first 10 levels:
- 1. Puncture
- 2. Enhanced Puncture
- 3. Barrage
- 4. Enhanced Barrage
- 5. Fundamental Puncture
- 6. Advanced Barrage
- 7. Dash
- 8. Barrage
- 9. Barrage
- 10. Barrage
In fact, the focus of this build is Barrage core skill, which can cause area damage to the target while making the enemy vulnerable and easy to attack. In addition, the upgraded Barrage Rogue Build is also quite strong in Imbuements, especially Poison and Shadow.
Skills such as Dash and Dark Shroud help to enhance your mobility. Dash can be a second way to dodge, and it will also damage and slow down enemies in your path. Dark Shroud increases your movement speed and health.
Best Specialization
If you know enough about Rogue, you will know that it has a class-specific mechanism Specialization. You can choose to equip one of 3 Specializations, which are Combo Points, Inner Sight, and Preparation. The most suitable one for Barrage Rogue Build is Combo Points Specialization.
When Combo Points is paired with Barrage Rogue Build, you can use basic skills such as Puncture to generate combo points. Once you have accumulated three points, you can use Barrage skills to consume them for additional attack effects. Combo Points will greatly improve your Barrage skills and achieve better crowd control.
Best Imbuement Leveling Rotation
While there is no foolproof upgrade cycle that will make your Barrage Rogue Build perfect for combat, a logical order is better than upgrading aimlessly. For this reason, we recommend that you start with Shadow Imbuement, which can first make enemies vulnerable.
After that, you should continue to attack with Puncture and Barrage with Combo Points Specialization, and then use Poison Imbuement to generate some energy and deal poison damage to enemies. Then repeat Puncture and Barrage for more combo attacks.
Finally, you can use Dash to slow down the remaining enemies, and then use Dark Shroud to increase your movement speed and health. Repeat this cycle and you will have a better combat experience.
Barrage Rogue Endgame Build
When you finally reach the endgame stage in Diablo 4 Season 6, you can adjust Barrage Rogue Build to upgrade it to “Barrage Rogue Endgame Build” based on the enemy capabilities of that stage. These adjustments are usually just upgrades or changes to the corresponding skills and do not affect the build’s core mechanics.
Active Skills:
- Puncture: Upgrades-Enhanced, Fundamental; Points-1
- Barrage: Upgrades-Enhanced, Improved; Points-5
- Caltrops: Upgrades-Enhanced, Methodical; Points-1
- Dash: Upgrades-Enhanced, Methodical; Points-1
- Dark Shroud: Upgrades-Enhanced, Subverting; Points-5
- Smoke Grenade: Upgrades-Enhanced, Countering; Points-1
- Cold Imbuement: Upgrades-Enhanced, Mixed; Points-1
In Barrage Rogue Endgame Build, you can keep Puncture and Barrage as the main damage skills. But on Imbuement side, you will switch to Cold to freeze the enemy to make them more vulnerable. And the new skills in the endgame build, such as Smoke Grenade, can help you stun and freeze enemies.
Passive Skills:
- Sturdy: Points-3
- Siphoning Strikes: Points-1
- Weapon Mastery: Points-3
- Unstable Elixirs: Points-3
- Trick Attacks: Points-3
- Exploit: Points-3
- Malice: Points-3
- Frigid Finesse: Points-3
- Innervation: Points-1
- Second Wind: Points-3
- Alchemist’s Fortune: Points-2
- Precision: Points-1
Yes, Barrage Rogue Endgame Build has added a lot of passive skills. In actual combat, you will find that Unstable Elixirs will stun nearby enemies after taking a Healing Potion. In addition, there are some passive skills that can help you improve your survivability and energy consumption, such as Second Wind. It gives you extra life as a barrier for every 100 energy spent, and Innervation gives you a chance to gain 8% energy on a lucky hit.
In fact, most other passive skills help increase damage. For example, Weapon Mastery generates bonuses when attacking with specific weapon types, and Trick Attacks increase your critical hit chance after stunning or knocking out an enemy.
These are some of the better ways to improve when using Barrage Rogue Build in Season 6, and the types of skills you need when using its endgame version. If you are a Rogue player, I believe these contents can help you. Thank you for reading.
