Picked up the game yesterday because sometimes you just wanna blow up a bunch of demons. Anyone got a recommended Rogue leveling build that isn't Twisting Blades? Twisting Blades is a really cool ability but it might be a bit too big brain for me for when I want to just zone out and watch numbers fly and demons explode. I do like melee but I think I prefer my melee a bit more "just loving smash things" rather than "careful positioning and aiming returning blades."

Feel like Minion Necro kind of falls off in the T3 range, is there an aspect or something to make it better? Having my entire cadre die to a single elite aoe was getting tedious. Been having fun with blood tho as a replacement.

Zero issues aside from the aforementioned huge packs. Suppressors can be annoying too but you can drag them into your mages with blight eventually.

You don't actually have to aim the TB return blades. You'll want another ability that helps blender weak trash. TB pairs well with traps, though traps really take off when you get the key passive at the end.

Harrow posted:Picked up the game yesterday because sometimes you just wanna blow up a bunch of demons. What you want is Flurry, and you can get the one aspect necessary for this in your codex very early on in Act I, at the Forsaken Quarry dungeon the Fractured Peaks, and that's pretty much all you need to get rolling with the build, just dashing into groups and acting like a blender. It definitely won't make you feel like you have to think about positioning as much as Twisting Blades can.

Helion posted:Me Roguing: Haha gently caress yeah! Yes!!! I’ve done every class solo to t3 on hardcore at this point, and so far Druid was the only one I couldn’t find a build that felt good. It’s the only class I feel like I wouldn’t enjoy replaying the early game on. I usually figure out my own builds but tried some guides when it was feeling like poo poo, and it kept feeling like rear end. Ibram Gaunt posted:Feel like Minion Necro kind of falls off in the T3 range, is there an aspect or something to make it better? Having my entire cadre die to a single elite aoe was getting tedious. Been having fun with blood tho as a replacement. I made summoner work up to about tier 40 nightmare. The inability to counter play a number of affixes with them combined with the increasing number of affixes elite packs get made me stop. It was uncomfortable how much faster & more consistent my clear speed got after. The cult leader board’s nodes that say “minions” (as opposed to “skeleton warrior” or “skeleton mage”) appearing to do nothing doesn’t help. The unique ring slaps though, and was probably the only reason I could run them as long as I did.

Any area that starts hidden and is revealed later doesn't work with pins; it's like the GPS line doesn't check state and is always using the original map.

I'm very happy with the gearing process in Diablo 4. Having all my gear being hand crafted by me from decent drops is super fun and feels really good instead of hoping for a well rolled legendary with specific aspect. I'm definitely finding myself looking through drops to see if there's any better rolled stuff that I can tinker with to make an upgrade.

There’s a glyph for Skeleton Warrior damage and survivability that I put in my first paragon sheet. Also make sure you grab the skill enhancement that sets a max amount of relative damage an enemy can do to minions.

I complained last night about getting no uniques, and I logged in and did a cellar first thing before work today where the butcher jumped me. He dropped a unique dagger that gives +40% damage to core skills if you have 3 combo points and a 30% chance for basic attacks to give 3 combo points. As a flurry rogue this is amazing. Complaining on the Internet works!

Stux posted:havnt tried using it myself but i found this unique that seems like it has potential for a blood/minion build if u want something to chase for to try adding them back in in the future I wonder if this stacks with the aspect that causes your nova to echo or if your minions only get one Also I think something a lot of people miss with minion survivability (and damage!) is abusing the skeletal priest, especially with the passive that gives them a 60% max health heal after 5 seconds. I assume this is mostly because they are a slave to the fart cloud and don't realize how much damage and healing it adds to The Boys. Substandard posted:Complaining on the Internet works! I guess I need to complain more because I've gotten like 15 uniques at this point and none of them are the ring that gives my minions exploding attacks.

I especially like being able to imprint aspects from the codex; it means even if you have nothing relevant you want you can always stamp *something* on the gear for now then overwrite it with something later if you find a better one or a better version of the one you put on it.

Thanks for the Rogue advice everyone! I'll try out Flurry and Penetrating Shot and see whether melee or range feels better for me right now.Gwaihir posted:Penetrating shot is very fun and good but it's not melee obv.

I'm guessing you skipped D3, where rerolling was cheap and easy (instead of locked behind time-limited events) and you could both upgrade into legendaries and reroll ones you didn't like?

Okay so explain me I barely managed to complete the capstone WT2->3 dungeon I just died 12 times in my first nightmare dungeon I have a sacred weapon but the rest is 4 stars upgraded yellows imprinted for a minion build What should I be supposed to do now if there's no helltide? Please don't tell me "go blood" or "go bone spear" because I don't like either builds

Is +dmg on chest pieces a trap as opposed to going for more defense? I've got a decent rare with max rolled +dmg but I'm starting to get gibbed before I can hit blood mist on dense elite packs and I'm not sure when the 6% damage boost is applied.

Yeah what I don't really immediately get is that I can't get more gear from WT2, I can only get more legendaries to dismantle for the last point upgrade of all my equip. Well let's see what happens with 3-4 more paragon points, thanks.

Stux posted:are we even playing the same game. necro is extremely strong, and the varied affixes make upgrading and itemising easier as well as lettingh you stack things to an absurd degree. like reading posts from an alternate dimension. I mean it is quite difficult to know what is going to be an upgrade at the margins, is plus 40 dps on the weapon worth losing 3.5 percent vuln damage? Are the pentinent greaves with multiplicitive 10 percent damage to chilled better than what I can get elsewhere wrt damage (I still use them anyway because freezing people is cool but I don't know which pair, 7 percent chill damage and 7 more movespeed VS 10 percent chill damage). A testing area with some damage meters and various enemy counts would be great if they gonna have so many different affixes and you want to perfect the build. On the other hand, does it really matter lol

Yeah it's a bit of a boring grind but getting legendaries for aspects or finishing dungeons to unlock aspects in the codex all in wt2 probably wouldn't hurt if you were hitting a brick wall. I'd also recommend doing the rep grinds if you haven't maxed those out yet; there's 5 skill points and 20 paragon points on the table for doing all of them which is huge. I did those on WT2 because looking for shrines or quickly doing sidequests went way faster that way.
