Idk I keep refreshing so someone can tell me how to have fun with my rogue again. Looking like the answer is going to be play poison and cc/don't get hit or switch to ranged. Otherwise drop your NM tiers by 10 or so and add the momentum/vigor aspect and pretend like everything is fine.

My rogue still seems the same tbh besides the hp regen from that skill but I found a decent aspect to keep my health up.

What level is your rogue, what nm tier are you doing, how's your gear?

I was level 85, clearing 55-57, mostly optimized gear having lots of fun frantically using all of my skills to kill shit while seeing my hp bounce between 25%-100%. Now I run out of potions in t50 and and die several times if I aggro more than 3 mobs.

rogue defiantly nerfed on sustain, damage reduction, and damage. Further, Monster life was increase in group play.

If you are killing everything in 1 shot you won't notice.

They want us to fight mobs our own level and take forever to get to a higher level.

Before, playing TB felt like a squishy hammerdin on crack. Now that's impossible at similar difficulty ranges unless someone comes up with a viable new sustain method. Hoping wudijo puts out a s1 eternal build since I didn't get to finish my rogue prior to s1 and don't want to restart just for the hearts...

Why is trash? You should be using LH anyway on any tb build?

I really think pen shot is going to be THE rogue build this patch. Obviously TB/flurry+RF/etc can still be decent. But with damage reduction and some of the other changes I think you’re going to way to stay away from mobs as much as you can.

Plus I’m probably overthinking this… but I think pen shot could be huge. That new pen shot unique looks really powerful. Cool aspect plus the bow having crit chance is huge. Combine that with the new malignant power that sacrifices normal damage but increases crit damage, throw in the malignant power that deals all 3-imbuements at once and you have a high crit ranged build that’s throwing imbuements all over.

Build will be squishy AF, but it’ll be ranged.

Idk we’ll see how it plays out but looks powerful on paper imo.
