Hi, level 82 TB shadow rogue here, I just reached NMD 50+ but I start to be one-shot killed by nasty elites who live there… So I decided to tweak my gear a bit, while tossing around this old idea of switching my shadow clone for another one, non-ultimate.
Because cooldown is so slow I often forget to use it, except against bosses and elites, but then it seems that it just replicates my basic skill (I use combo points with Condemnation for damage and energy sustain), so I’m really getting tired of it.
Anyway, I’m wondering which skill could work well with my combat routine : shadow imbuement, basic to stack momentum, TB, dash, repeat.
- Concealment, to avoid cc after I’ve dashed in the pack. I’ve tried it but… what’s the point if it drops as soon as I attack ?
- Cold imbuement sounds good against elites, but does it stack with chill from penitent ? and is it worth it ? I like the idea of always having an imbuement up, though.
- Caltrops for more chill ? I’ve never tried it.
- Dark shroud : could be good for DR% but I remember it vanishes almost instantly
- Smoke grenade : never tried them and I don’t know how it synergizes with the rest, plus I’ve already plenty of cc from aspects and skills.
- Death trap ? wouldn’t help much against NM Elites…
Or drop one skill and invest the points in passives ?
I like the fast pace of the TB Rogue, but I feel I need to add up something to the build.
Thanks for your suggestions !
