I'd swap Edgemaster for Infiltrator aspect for bosses and difficult enemies in general. It won't really affect your trash mob farming much, but will massively improve the single target damage and CC
This build is amazing, im currently leveling my first character with this build and watched your last video 100 times but i feelt like it neede another one more especific. Amazing job man!!! Range is the best
I have almost the same exact build, but swapped penetrating shot for rapid shot /w ricochet aspect, plays exactly the same but has higher single target and doesn’t sacrifice wave clear due to ricochet. It feels so nice lol.
I swapped death trap for rapid fire for single target, works like a charm. Need to swap out aspects tho i'm early endgame and these aspects look way better then i am running now. Aspect of burning venoms i'm going to keep as long as possible though, the skill reset and the venom pool really works well for now
I’m using a similar build to this, but I use Poison Trap and Caltrops with the passive that turns them into ice, as well as the three points to do more damage to chilled enemies. If the enemies don’t die outright, they end up frozen and shattered. Caltrops can also be used both as a positioning tool and an escape. I also take the passive for Penetrating Shot that slows enemies and makes elites fall, and I basically stunlock all elites😂 I also took the Exposure key passive, those extra bombs keep enemies stunned and the traps have very low cooldown.
I recommend trying out cold imbue + shadow imbue. It is really slick and it solves my energy regen problem slightly, and makes it easier to kill mobs and a bit better on the boss.
I been rocking this. I've tried all other combinations but so far this does me the best. Only skill I've not tried is ice imbue stuff. I've just not gotten any decent ice buff gear.
You should definitely remove the ult/caltrops slot with rapid shot. Bosses that eat like 5-10 pen shots to die get 1 spotted with concealment crit poison imbued rapid. Worst case 2 shots.
@@callouu3601 No all 5 is needed. Shadow inbue can take the hit since its primary purpose is just to blow up trash mobs. But tbh you can probably still get it really high I grabbed all the primary passives and had 2 points left for it then jewelry got it up to 6.
Well.... I prefer to play ranged rogue too and this build is definetly fun, but either my pen shot gear is waaaaaaay worse or the twisting blade build is just on a completely different level. I hope they tweak some stuff so that you can play more than tb builds and still feel as powerful as with the tb build. Thanks for the video :9
This was literally my first main build i started since day one. No one had made a even decent video on this build, until today, amazing video bro, im glad the ranged rogue is getting tge l9ve he deserves ( D2 multishot bowazon main right here 😭)
Any chance you could put together a build template for the skills using one of the many build tools? I find it difficult to do my skill tree and paragon board while watching and pausing my video.
Trickkshot aspect doesn't go on amulets, its a weapon aspect. So I recommend using it on your offhand dagger/sword instead. Also using rapid fire over poison trap seems a much better bet.
I still don't understand how people haven't realized that the base boots with reduce evate by 1.2 sec each attacks are absolute BIS. Pair that with leave a cluster of stunt grenade and you can literraly stun lock packs. 3 puncture, 1 barrage or rapid fire then repeat. Best fun ever. Cant't go penitence for this exactr reason. Also, evade give 30 crit dmg when you evade so I currently have rapid fire dealing 9 hits of 1 million + crits on elite with my simple, no anoying "mmo-like must do preparation shinenigan" and just play like a hack and slash should be played, which is brainlessly. It's the only hack and slash build I could find with the rogue.
I've been testing the Temerity pants with a similar build to this for about 4 days now and the barrier proc works great. I got a max roll Life on Kill stat on my helm which I assume is what keeps the barrier topped up during pack clearance. Also, been extremely lucky with the Penitent Greaves drop. got one in WT3 and a replacement in WT4... i cannot live without them! On the subject of paragon boards, I used to use Exploit Weakness as my third board but was recommended to switch to Eldritch for the imbuement boost... I can't tell which one is better though.
ok first let me thank you for that really detailed view of the build. 2nd i just switched from twisting blade and my highest crit was 170k, with this its 350k. 3rd could u release the build on d4builds? would be easier then replaying the video every time :D
Just Switched over from TB on lvl 75 with 9k AP and 5k Armor. Maybe im doing something but im WAY slower, way less DMG and way more squishy. Couldnt even do a T25 when i was doing T30 easily on Farm before 😮
My first character on the game is a ranged rogue, got her up to 45 with various bow builds, just switched to melee because i was curious and i'm having just as much fun. Still think i'm switching back to bow by level 70 or so.
Also i think maybe you should talk about boots giving you an extra dash. Bc i think the build lacks of mobility, especialy if you used your concealment for geting out of crown controll. In the early game i tried dash abiility but how you said in end game its irrelevant and you prefer to have poison trap, so it feels like 0 mobility if you used your concealment. I'm courius about your thoughts on this.
Finally a rogue user that actually tells people twisting blades are significantly nerfed. Thanks for the insight on the penetrating bow build. I will definitely use poison trap as a replacement.
Wow, just got this build up to speed. Even without edgemaster working atm, my damage went through the roof. Especially impressed with the poison imbuement on penetrating shot… bosses simply disappear. That earned a like and subscribe. Another note: I did pick up the mother’s embrace unique ring and slotted it in. The resource refund works really well in this build. Worth looking in to imo
I'm a bit confused about you saying the "Damage with Skills that Swap to a New Weapon" stat being useless, Rapture tooltip says "requires dual wielded weapons", don't you swap to your bow for Pen Shot after building up combo points with Puncture?
I love your guides and video quality, but right now ranger rogue feels like a massive L because of how often you need to just run around until the mobs gather around. this is a problem across the board with D4's mob pack design imo but it is the most noticeable when playing a ranged rogue
i mean yeah.. rogue, dexterity ... sounds like ranged to me, why the fuck would i play a gimped melee? everyone and their mother uses boring ass twistingblades... it sucks.
im enjoying this build so far, i wanted to do a shadow imbuement, penetration shot nuke build since i pieced one together in beta.. i currently have complete builds for twisted blades and this one, both equally fun but the ranger build heavily lacks mobility.
Well you start with 100 energy, so you can do 3 basic hits for combo> Penetrating Shot> 3 basic> Penetrating Shot and so on. You can also weave in the poison trap on cooldown and reset your inbuement
Just hit WT4 at 60 with this build. I only have a Sorc as well at 73, and she hit WT4 at 68, but I struggled ALOT less with this build lol. This build is fun dude, thanks.
Aaaand, the barrier pants.... what if you stack a shitload of + hp? The barrier will end up beeing pretty decent. And you could roll around with the +25/37.5/50% extra damage when you have a barrier active?
can someone please teach me how you get penetrating shot to do that multi directional shot like in the video? my penetrating shot still does a single line shot. pleaseee
ive been playing this build for awhile. jesus the single target made me cry. i tested twisting blades with shadow imbu with dash AOE wasnt that far behind.
oh not to mention edgemaster has been disabled. and the dagger is only good with combo points. i tried it but u cant tell the potential since edgemaster is disabled. and in large packs u can just hold down penshot which negates any use for combo points or the dagger. prep with death trap is a good one in the end the biggest problem is single target. with TB on world bosses or higher NM dungeon bosses its ezpz but with pen shot its pretty horrendous.
I have been using something similar, it was more so of a way to deal more damage to bosses as i was using barrage instead of penetrating shot. Using penetrating shot with its aspect and shadow imbuement in itself can crowd clear, and if you place traps beforehand using the aspect that allows you to place 4 poison traps while in concealment you can reset your trap skills, which is why i also run deathtrap with the preparation specialization, if you spend 100 energy it will reduce your ultimate by 4 seconds, if you run consuming shadows you can keep your ultimate cool down very low. For bosses you do have to drop back to puncture, and abuse you shadow imbuement with penetrating shot to quickly reset deathtrap which can be reset almost every 4 seconds or so, resetting all skills for an endless loop of constant spamming. I have no idea if this build will work for tier 4 but on 3 it is pretty much deleting most things. I will say im an absolute glass cannon though. So it requires some finesse and positioning.
Sold or salvaged a condemnation by accident 😅. My biggest struggle and what I need to address most is my base attack speed. My resource regen skill is slow AF atm. So resource and combo stacks are hurting.
I have a similar build for PVE. Do you have tips for a ranged pvp Build? I studied the skills but I think that ranged won't work in pvp as good as the close range rogue..
Hi . When i watch an endgame video build , i straight away watch lvls of enemis cause rollibg over lvl 78 enemis when you are lvl 78 yoursefl is pretty damn easy . So to see if a build is very as efficient as your tittlz say , please show the efficiency of the build on lvl 90 to 95 enemis at least at the begening . Thays only my opinion but i can roll on lvl 90 enemis like nothing while im lvl 71 so if i dont see that you can roll on + 10-15 lvl + dosent make me wanna watch that build ... thanks a lot for the content
There's an another very good reason to use Crossbow instead of bow. Because we're building combo with our melee weapon skill, it receives attack speed from swords and this is why it's fast, but Penetrating shot we're anyway firing at most once two seconds or so, so for the best outcome we want biggest hit damage, not biggest DPS, and here's where crossbows outperform bows with identical DPS.
@@Veiljustin83 Puncture Throw your blades a short distance, dealing 21% damage. Every 3rd cast Slows enemies by 20% for 2seconds. Critical Strikes will always Slow. ****Requires Dual Wielded Weapons.**** Damage: Physical Tags: Basic, Marksman It's easy to test. Equip high-dps bow and starting rogue daggers and go attack someone. Then make the opposite and and make the right conclusion. When tested diligently, you can also (1) switch a crossbow to a bow and see if puncture attack speed has changed and (2) switch daggers for swords and see if puncture attack speed has changed. You will be able to make the conclusions on your own. It's easy to be confused, but puncture is a *Marksman skill* that *uses your DW weapons* and not your 2H ranged one. And so with identical DPS a bow will have 1.1 attacks per second and a crossbow will have 0.9 attacks per second, so a crossbow will have 22% more average hit -- and Piercing shot playstyle is such that average hit matters and attack speed does not.
@NizarGG Could you provide a link to the talent calculator, or any way to view the full build? I love the video, but it can be hard to map out everything without pausing the video 20 times! Thanks for the great guides!
Not really an endgame build showcase if you don't show any Nightmare Dungeon gameplay... I'm playing a twisting blades build and it does the same thing to open world / standard dungeons, not really impressive at all. I'm lvl 75 Rogue and can only clear up to Tier 35 Nightmare Dungeons, I'd be curious to see how this build holds up there. Anyone past lv 70 will have an easy time with open world / standard dungeons .....
I ended up on Poison Trap also but just starting tier 4 and improving my build. Hated having to wait forever on Death Trap. Movment speed is huge for this build also.
This just hasnt been working for me, my energy drains so fast and I hardly get any back, im level 45. Most of the time puncture and shadow doesnt even proc a crown control aoe. Not sure what im doing wrong.
Is Exploit really good? It has 20 second cooldown and you cant choose what attach makes vulnerable, so it probably will be just a generator hitting very few enemies
My clan carried me into tier 4 at 53 but now I'm stuck at 59. Should I just go back to Tier 3 for awhile or should I grind it out to at least 60 just so I can put on some ancestral armor?
as an old sorc who ran a rogue alt in beta and is now just fucking about on the one other class i like: this content is great. thx. and yes. ranged rogue may not be old bowazon but it sure hits like a truck. thanks for all your videos. (lvl30 trickster in wt3)
I hate that Penetrating Shot is the only really viable range skill. I am trying to make a machine gun Rapid Fire build but its meh. Unironically Sorc has the machine gun build
"%Damage with skills that swaps to a new weapon" is useless? because u swap to bow after using puncture to fire the Penetration Shot right? i don't get it xD
I play twisted blades but I want to switch I already got 3 condemnations one max roll but sadly only sacred but still incredibly powerful and looks way more fun to me
I really like your Builds. I started playing Eldenring 1 year later after release and it was my first Soulslike game. I managed to defeat the game with only 380 deaths on my first playthrough and had so much fun. Even i was doing my own build i liked your videos so much, i always watched them, even i don't wanted to play these builds, your videos are super entertaining. When i saw you making a D4 video i was instanlty hyped. Your videos are very good put together and very well done :)
i still use crossbows over the skyhunter bow because im already energy capped with the Loop ring i have for 4 energy everytime i CC enemies. & as for the crit, im already at around 80% crit rate so that extra 20% isn't super appealing loseing out on 150% Vulnerable dmg from the double roll on Crossbow.
Love to see you playing and doing guides for D4. After your Elden Ring guides, these just as quality as those are. I have a few questions: -Do you have a discord channel by chance? -For pants you are saying dark shroud ranks to use, but we don't use the skill itself just as free with the aspect. Will be still benefiting from the DS ranks? -%Damage with skills that swap to new weapons. Do we need this? Will this proc if you build the combo w Puncture and then shot with Penetrating?
For me this is actually a little worrying. Mind you I have not made it to endgame with rogue yet. But right now, just from the description on most builds, they remind me of the archon build in D3. Which was essentially run around, wait for Archon to come up, then hit it and let everything die. I personally can't stand those builds. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong lol. I could also simply be in the minority on not liking builds like this. I usually played DH Unholy or GoD's set just so I could kill everything on the screen. Always felt bad skipping mobs or trying to pull them from group to group =(
Hello, what is the 2nd frame you use in Excellence? Of the 8 frames that exist, I couldn't find anything similar to yours. Thank you and keep building, it's amazing.
Good video, but I like to have a close AoE, and a powerful one-on-one. I go with Flurry as main attack (has massive lifesteal, i can't die), then for one-on-one I have Rapid Fire. I got Condemnation and I use Combo, so my Rapid Fire shoots 8 arrows consecutively, and each one deals thousands as it is an extreme crit chance and boosted by Combo and the dagger.
Death trap is so bad. You need the mirror with the aspect that he also copies your infusements. This is 100% better and he also casts another poison trap. Ulti->shadow infusement->poison trap. Infinite damage because of the cooldown reset.
wouldn´t the first skill on your chest armor increase your Pen shot damage, since your basic attacks use the swords and Pen shot uses the Bow/CB ? so youre acitvely switching weapons while using Pentrating shot?
I play twisting blades, deathtrap, shadow imbue and poison trap. I'm an absolute noob but in large packs I can mostly cast deathtrap 2 times in 4secs. Love it
tier 3 and lv 53, the build is amazing, but i'm trying to solve the energy regen problem, added a couple aspect to help attack speed up, tried lucky hit with second wind in the skills but still I feel like the energy regen isn't fast enough for my penetrating shots. Any suggestions?
This seemed op at first then realize its same lvl 78 on 78, next time try it on higher lvl mobs since no one really farms like that in the end game. usually farming 3 lvls higher or so even 10 at times. Not hating here just make it more realistic. Twisted blades at that same place will melt anything with almost unlimited resource regen.
ngl, I swapped over to Pen Shot Rogue not because it's necessarily stronger than TB (idk if it is or not when they're equally invested into), but because TB was getting kinda boring after the 1 - 55 grind and I wanted to switch things up. Also because TB is fun, but it's also extremely hands-off from 1 - 55 (and it didn't feel like I was gonna run into issues any time soon).

I'd swap Edgemaster for Infiltrator aspect for bosses and difficult enemies in general. It won't really affect your trash mob farming much, but will massively improve the single target damage and CC
Got a near perfect windforce, so... Let's find a build!
Barrier on pants only scales with your current base HP and not from gear and board. Might want to look into something different.
I did got the legendary aspect for penetrating shot, do i have to activate it somewere or does it just work when u finished the dungeon?

oh not to mention edgemaster has been disabled. and the dagger is only good with combo points. i tried it but u cant tell the potential since edgemaster is disabled. and in large packs u can just hold down penshot which negates any use for combo points or the dagger. prep with death trap is a good one in the end the biggest problem is single target. with TB on world bosses or higher NM dungeon bosses its ezpz but with pen shot its pretty horrendous.
I have been using something similar, it was more so of a way to deal more damage to bosses as i was using barrage instead of penetrating shot.
Using penetrating shot with its aspect and shadow imbuement in itself can crowd clear, and if you place traps beforehand using the aspect that allows you to place 4 poison traps while in concealment you can reset your trap skills, which is why i also run deathtrap with the preparation specialization, if you spend 100 energy it will reduce your ultimate by 4 seconds, if you run consuming shadows you can keep your ultimate cool down very low.
For bosses you do have to drop back to puncture, and abuse you shadow imbuement with penetrating shot to quickly reset deathtrap which can be reset almost every 4 seconds or so, resetting all skills for an endless loop of constant spamming.
I have no idea if this build will work for tier 4 but on 3 it is pretty much deleting most things.
I will say im an absolute glass cannon though. So it requires some finesse and positioning.
Sold or salvaged a condemnation by accident 😅.
My biggest struggle and what I need to address most is my base attack speed. My resource regen skill is slow AF atm. So resource and combo stacks are hurting.
I have a similar build for PVE. Do you have tips for a ranged pvp Build? I studied the skills but I think that ranged won't work in pvp as good as the close range rogue..
Hi . When i watch an endgame video build , i straight away watch lvls of enemis cause rollibg over lvl 78 enemis when you are lvl 78 yoursefl is pretty damn easy . So to see if a build is very as efficient as your tittlz say , please show the efficiency of the build on lvl 90 to 95 enemis at least at the begening .
Thays only my opinion but i can roll on lvl 90 enemis like nothing while im lvl 71 so if i dont see that you can roll on + 10-15 lvl + dosent make me wanna watch that build ... thanks a lot for the content
There's an another very good reason to use Crossbow instead of bow. Because we're building combo with our melee weapon skill, it receives attack speed from swords and this is why it's fast, but Penetrating shot we're anyway firing at most once two seconds or so, so for the best outcome we want biggest hit damage, not biggest DPS, and here's where crossbows outperform bows with identical DPS.
Puncture is not a melee skill. crossbow is better because of its high vulnerable dmg which rogues should have it up almost 100% of the time.

Puncture
Throw your blades a short distance, dealing 21% damage. Every 3rd cast Slows enemies by 20% for 2seconds. Critical Strikes will always Slow.
****Requires Dual Wielded Weapons.****
Damage: Physical
Tags: Basic, Marksman
It's easy to test. Equip high-dps bow and starting rogue daggers and go attack someone. Then make the opposite and and make the right conclusion. When tested diligently, you can also (1) switch a crossbow to a bow and see if puncture attack speed has changed and (2) switch daggers for swords and see if puncture attack speed has changed. You will be able to make the conclusions on your own.
It's easy to be confused, but puncture is a *Marksman skill* that *uses your DW weapons* and not your 2H ranged one.
And so with identical DPS a bow will have 1.1 attacks per second and a crossbow will have 0.9 attacks per second, so a crossbow will have 22% more average hit -- and Piercing shot playstyle is such that average hit matters and attack speed does not.
Ik level deze, speelt idd al snel prima👍🏻
@NizarGG Could you provide a link to the talent calculator, or any way to view the full build? I love the video, but it can be hard to map out everything without pausing the video 20 times! Thanks for the great guides!
here it is! d4builds.gg/builds/bcc4f21b-949e-48c6-a1c0-4513bccfa6b6/
Potentially dumb question but at what point do you switch to "endgame build" i.e. at what level?
it's all arbitrary really and the definition of endgame is subjective, but generally speaking I'd personally say once you reach WT4
Edgemasters would be a great idea if it wasn't still disabled thanks to it's weirdness with whirlwind
Could use an update on the paragon board ^^ im starting to catch up on your progress
I recommend putting rapid fire for single target killing on ur bar also
You dont have a slot for that. And its not needed. You can delete bosses in seconds with poison imbuement.
Take out shadow imbument
You get 6 second invulnerability from a concealed penetrating shot
make a D4 planner with paragon board and post the link in the description ... it will be easier to follow your updates without making other videos
Not really an endgame build showcase if you don't show any Nightmare Dungeon gameplay... I'm playing a twisting blades build and it does the same thing to open world / standard dungeons, not really impressive at all. I'm lvl 75 Rogue and can only clear up to Tier 35 Nightmare Dungeons, I'd be curious to see how this build holds up there. Anyone past lv 70 will have an easy time with open world / standard dungeons .....
IDC about the build as much as I care about how well made the video is. Yummy editing, format, and structure. Tasteful and delectable 😩👌
Yummy???? You good bro ?
@@saintnick6413 yes yummy. The editing is tasteful, and if something is tasty then most people would say it's "yummy"
@@tukyniiLook at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark...
Poison trap is the best not because it’s stats and effects but the fucking trip animation is hilarious. I’ll never stop using it.
Will there still be an update to thhis build? really looking forward to it :D
Nizar make a barbarian build
are you running anything else while edgemasters is disabled? or just gonna wait until it comes back?
Please show the entire skill tree vs having us having to go look at previous videos
I'm curious if Condemnation unique and Windforce aren't better than the effects that we have on 2h and one of the 1H, have u checked that?
I ended up on Poison Trap also but just starting tier 4 and improving my build. Hated having to wait forever on Death Trap. Movment speed is huge for this build also.
Question! Can I use Forceful Arrow instead of Punture? Since I'm playing Hardcore I'd prefer to be a bit further away if I can :)
for sure, forceful arrow can apply vulnerability as well
This just hasnt been working for me, my energy drains so fast and I hardly get any back, im level 45. Most of the time puncture and shadow doesnt even proc a crown control aoe. Not sure what im doing wrong.
Is Exploit really good? It has 20 second cooldown and you cant choose what attach makes vulnerable, so it probably will be just a generator hitting very few enemies
Got a windforce drop but still trying to decide if its good.
My clan carried me into tier 4 at 53 but now I'm stuck at 59. Should I just go back to Tier 3 for awhile or should I grind it out to at least 60 just so I can put on some ancestral armor?
Can we see your character stats with this build? I'm curious as to what your base critical strike chance is.
I will be making a level 100 updated version of this build soon, things got even better.
as an old sorc who ran a rogue alt in beta and is now just fucking about on the one other class i like: this content is great. thx. and yes. ranged rogue may not be old bowazon but it sure hits like a truck. thanks for all your videos. (lvl30 trickster in wt3)
I hate that Penetrating Shot is the only really viable range skill. I am trying to make a machine gun Rapid Fire build but its meh. Unironically Sorc has the machine gun build
Please put this on D4 Builds. Thank you!
here you go! d4builds.gg/builds/bcc4f21b-949e-48c6-a1c0-4513bccfa6b6/
@@NizarGG Thanks so much! You're a legend! I love this build!
"%Damage with skills that swaps to a new weapon" is useless? because u swap to bow after using puncture to fire the Penetration Shot right? i don't get it xD
I play twisted blades but I want to switch I already got 3 condemnations one max roll but sadly only sacred but still incredibly powerful and looks way more fun to me
I really like your Builds. I started playing Eldenring 1 year later after release and it was my first Soulslike game. I managed to defeat the game with only 380 deaths on my first playthrough and had so much fun. Even i was doing my own build i liked your videos so much, i always watched them, even i don't wanted to play these builds, your videos are super entertaining. When i saw you making a D4 video i was instanlty hyped.
Your videos are very good put together and very well done :)
the vibe, the background music, the editing, fuck im convinced, ditching the blades.
i still use crossbows over the skyhunter bow because im already energy capped with the Loop ring i have for 4 energy everytime i CC enemies.
& as for the crit, im already at around 80% crit rate so that extra 20% isn't super appealing loseing out on 150% Vulnerable dmg from the double roll on Crossbow.
Hey, man! When will you do an updated build video for 70+ World Tier 4?
So just one point in poison trap ? And also only keep one point in shadow imbuement ? Just so I dont make mistakes 😅
Which legendary imprint would I replace Condemnation with? The 20% imbue one?
16:10 Is that really the No Witnesses Board? No Witnesses uses Ultimate, which this build does not use.
Edgemaster's is still disabled? Or did they put it back in
edgemasters has been re-enabled now!
@@NizarGG LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Could you configure the build in d4builds please, it's much easier for us, thanks
Do you have a lightning build for sorcerer?
Love to see you playing and doing guides for D4. After your Elden Ring guides, these just as quality as those are.
I have a few questions:
-Do you have a discord channel by chance?
-For pants you are saying dark shroud ranks to use, but we don't use the skill itself just as free with the aspect. Will be still benefiting from the DS ranks?
-%Damage with skills that swap to new weapons. Do we need this? Will this proc if you build the combo w Puncture and then shot with Penetrating?
running same build but with dash instead of cal, honestly love it
he's not using caltrops
For me this is actually a little worrying. Mind you I have not made it to endgame with rogue yet. But right now, just from the description on most builds, they remind me of the archon build in D3. Which was essentially run around, wait for Archon to come up, then hit it and let everything die. I personally can't stand those builds. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong lol. I could also simply be in the minority on not liking builds like this. I usually played DH Unholy or GoD's set just so I could kill everything on the screen. Always felt bad skipping mobs or trying to pull them from group to group =(
Hello, what is the 2nd frame you use in Excellence? Of the 8 frames that exist, I couldn't find anything similar to yours. Thank you and keep building, it's amazing.
just an observation.. didnt look very impressive against mobs similar lvl
Good video, but I like to have a close AoE, and a powerful one-on-one. I go with Flurry as main attack (has massive lifesteal, i can't die), then for one-on-one I have Rapid Fire.
I got Condemnation and I use Combo, so my Rapid Fire shoots 8 arrows consecutively, and each one deals thousands as it is an extreme crit chance and boosted by Combo and the dagger.
i got the unique dagger with lvl 51 but it only has 606 dps and 637 item power, is it still worth using and if yes until when?
What do I do if I have still Points to spent left and already did 1:1 what you did on the skill tree?
confused why you emphasized dark shoroud but ur not using in in your tree ?
Death trap is so bad. You need the mirror with the aspect that he also copies your infusements. This is 100% better and he also casts another poison trap.
Ulti->shadow infusement->poison trap. Infinite damage because of the cooldown reset.
How it feels in PVP?
wouldn´t the first skill on your chest armor increase your Pen shot damage, since your basic attacks use the swords and Pen shot uses the Bow/CB ? so youre acitvely switching weapons while using Pentrating shot?
how do you keep farming trick shot aspect?? i’m scared to use it
I play twisting blades, deathtrap, shadow imbue and poison trap. I'm an absolute noob but in large packs I can mostly cast deathtrap 2 times in 4secs. Love it
Can some one Help me in the build i can Only Shot 1 bullet and they sonst Split any more
tier 3 and lv 53, the build is amazing, but i'm trying to solve the energy regen problem, added a couple aspect to help attack speed up, tried lucky hit with second wind in the skills but still I feel like the energy regen isn't fast enough for my penetrating shots. Any suggestions?
This seemed op at first then realize its same lvl 78 on 78, next time try it on higher lvl mobs since no one really farms like that in the end game. usually farming 3 lvls higher or so even 10 at times. Not hating here just make it more realistic. Twisted blades at that same place will melt anything with almost unlimited resource regen.
I’m struggling to figure out which build is the best should I make a twisted blade build or just make this which build is the strongest rn
I run a trap build that is insanely fun but I’m considering giving this a shot
Twisted blade trap build is generally better for most of the game but for end game Nightmare dungeon pushing this build is better
@@dkeane6152 appreciate it
Hi may i ask how to get to Scosglen, Dry Steppes and Fractured Peak?
I copied your skill tree and had 7 points left. Not sure if they changed something or you missed something. No gear boosts either
ngl, I swapped over to Pen Shot Rogue not because it's necessarily stronger than TB (idk if it is or not when they're equally invested into), but because TB was getting kinda boring after the 1 - 55 grind and I wanted to switch things up. Also because TB is fun, but it's also extremely hands-off from 1 - 55 (and it didn't feel like I was gonna run into issues any time soon).
