Top 3 Best & Most Fun Rogue Builds to Use in Diablo 4 Season 4 

In Season 4, there are three standout builds that are considered the best and most fun to play. These builds include the New Rapid Fire Unique Scoundrel's Kiss PTR build, the Rapid Fire/Penetrating Shot Rogue build, and the New Stun Grenade Flurry Rogue build. Let's take a closer look at each of these builds and what makes them so effective and enjoyable to play.

1. Season 4 New Exploding Shot Shotgun Build - New Rapid Fire Unique Scoundrels Kiss PTR

We got the brand new rogue build for Season 4, the new exploding shotgun build. Even though it may look like we're using rapid fire, it actually has a new mod to completely change around its effect with the newer unique called the Scoundrel’s Kiss. So it actually plays a lot different, normally with rapid fire, you just find your target, you shoot at it, it just goes in a straight line, it actually changes.  Rapid fire now lobs exploding arrows that deal X multiplicative increased damage, so it's going to be dealing more damage, but it lobs them and it also explodes. So that means better AOE. However, on bosses what this does mean is that you need to get Point Blank hence where the exploding shotgun build comes out. This is why it's a brand new build because how it plays is it's going to lob towards them. So if certain targets aren't within the certain area, it's just going to completely miss which means you will deal less DPS if you do not get in kissing distance, that's why they call it the scoundrel's kiss.

2. D4 Season 4 Rapid Fire/Penetrating Shot Rogue Build

The Rapid Fire/Penetrating Shot Rogue Build in Diablo 4 Season 4 is a powerful and versatile build that combines the Rapid Fire and Penetrating Shot skills to deal high single-target and area damage. You get the best of two worlds, a screen-wide explosion that clears everything in tier 100s and an insane single-target ability that one-shots any boss in the game. On top of that, you have Shadow imbuement which you can keep up permanently in tier 100s via the nightstalker glyph. This build is ideal for players who enjoy a ranged playstyle and want to excel in both single-target and crowd control situations.

3. D4 Season 4 New Stun Grenade Flurry Rogue Build 

One of the brand new rogue builds that has come out is the stun grenade Rogue build with the brand new unique called Saboteur’s Signet coming out in Season 4 which is going to give you a chance to release some stun grenades. And what's cool is this is not a lucky hit chance, it's just a flat out up to 30% if you get a high roll when you use flurry to just release stun grenades. There is another thing here where on the explosive glyph we can get up to 594% stun grenade damage which is technically additive damage, but that is still a massive amount and all the aspects now will give you bonus damage to stun grenades when you roll it on your pieces of gear. There's also another newer change here with inner sight which makes it so when you attack enemies that aren't marked for inner sight you are still filling up your gauge to actually build up your inner sight. And when it does build up you still have unlimited energy, but on top of that you get plus 25 crit strike chance for a set duration. So the build definitely does have a giant AOE.
