Diablo 4 Best Cold Rogue Build

This rogue build is initially planned as a cold Assassin Rogue, so this means we'll be going into a midi rock that is going to have code Improvement.

Talent Options

Using the Codex Aspect of Sleeting Imbuements: Rain of Arrow gain all imbuements at once, we can try cold shadow assassin hybrid too.

Build Highlight

So many sources of bonus multiplicative damage bonus, great scaling.

The Standard

Close, Slowed, Controlled & Stunned, Vulnerable, Crit etc.

Skill Tree

We'll be going to one point in the Puncture, and also its upgrades, Enhanced Puncture, Fundamental Puncture, Puncture is good for us because it will have a slow and on top of that you also provide us with vulnerability, so Puncture is definitely the skill of choice for us  to go with the melee Rogue, we will be going into five points in the Flurry, Improved Flurry, and we'll also be going into the vulnerability that hits enemies, now one thing about flurry is that in the first zone for the fracture Peak, you can have the Codex that flurry does AOE damage and Deals 8 to 16 more damage, we'll be going with Shadow step, and also Caltrops for the ice Rogue and Ice assassin, so here we'll be going into one point in the shadow step and also its passives, Methodical Shadow Step, and over here we'll be going with one point into Caltrops, and we call its upgrades, Enhanced Caltrops, the upgrades are really good, Caltrops lasts for about 6 seconds and each second's enemies are in it takes three percent more damage, so up to 18 more damage, on top of that Caltrops will now deal cold damage and chills enemies which is really good for controlling enemies, and also provides you with a damage boost you'll see very soon, now coming over to the center of the build we do not have any points into sabotage and most of our points are invested into the Cold Imbuement, so Five Points in the Cold Imbuement and also its upgrades, now the upgrades allowed quality agreement to keep animes vulnerable while providing us with a bonus damage to control enemies 20 and also 40 if they're frozen, this also means that your damage from Cold Imbuement can freeze enemies once you kill them, and also you also have the Caltrops over here which also chills enemies to help you freeze it, now briefly going through over to our alternative build which is over here with a Shadow Imbuement so the Shadow Imbuement the concept is you'll have one point of Shadow Imbuement which we'll explain the whole skill combination and also the skill method with you on the next part, so how shadowing mimics is going to work is you provide increased criticawe chances and also you'll get increased damage to no physical damage by another 12 percent for eight seconds, so your shadowing movement will increase your Shadow damage and also your code damage which can also be reflected to increase your Caltrops  damage which can be really good, and finally both of the build will be going into the Ultimate for the Rain of Arrows, now the Ring of arrows have some really nice multipliers too because rain of arrows can be imbuted by your code and also Shadow Improvement and you'll deal more damage elementally and this is Amplified by another 20, on top of that, it could also knocked our enemies so if you do have a codex that provides you with increased damage for knocking out enemies like the aspect of pumbling you deal 40 more damage while casting ultimate which will be the highest best spell.
