Why Choose the Twisting Blades Rogue Build in Season 9?

The Twisting Blades Rogue build impales enemies and sends spinning blades returning through their path turning you into a deadly lawnmower of destruction. Combined with Poison Imbuement, cooldown reset mechanics, and the new Season 9 Horadric Spell system, this build offers top-tier performance in both damage and mobility.

 

Season 9 Mechanics: Horadric Spell System

Season 9 introduces a powerful new system: Horadric Spells, built by combining a Catalyst, an Infusion, and 3 Arcana. These are slotted into a Skill (we use Twisting Blades) and grant massive bonuses in endgame content.

 

Best Setup for Twisting Blades Rogue:

 Catalyst: Disintegrate Consistent, duration-based damage boost.

 Infusion: Glacial Nimbus Applies Chill/Freeze, enabling Frigid Finesse for bonus damage.

 

Core Arcana:

 Fractured Core: Removes enemy damage reduction auras.

 Bloody Charm: Adds execute-style bonus damage.

 Tranquil Stone: Grants frequent Unstoppable ideal for CC-heavy enemies.

 

Optional Arcana:

 Sapping Crux: Increases Vulnerable uptime.

 Floaty Bobble: Grants teleportation via Twisting Blades.

 Bottled Wind: Works well with potion-generation elixirs.

 

Core Skills & Rotation Breakdown

Key Skills

Twisting Blades: Primary damage dealer. Hits hard on impact, hits again on return. Also resets cooldowns via Advanced Twisting Blades.

Poison Imbuement: Adds powerful DoT effect to Twisting Blades. Needs constant uptime (\~every 2.2s).

Poison Trap: Inflicts knockdown and increases enemy damage taken. Also resets Poison Imbuement via Bands of Ichorous Rose.

Death Trap: AoE burst, enemy pull-in, and cooldown reset tool. Procs No Witnesses for a free damage bonus.

Dark Shroud: Provides tankiness, Movement Speed, and Critical Strike Chance. Auto-generated with Umbrous aspect.

Caltrops: Used for crowd control and enabling Frigid Finesse by chilling/freezing enemies.

 

Recommended Skill Rotation:

1. Activate Poison Imbuement

2. Drop Poison Trap + Caltrops on elite or mob groups

3. Cast Twisting Blades

4. Use Death Trap to pull enemies and reset cooldowns

5. Maintain Imbuement reset loop via:

    Poison Trap

    Death Trap

    Bands of Ichorous Rose

6. Use Dash to reposition and control blade return pat

 

Best Runewords for Twisting Blade Rogue Build

You can socket two Runewords (Ritual + Invocation) into your armor for powerful passive effects.

 

Best-in-Slot Ritual + Invocation Combos:

 Ahu + Qax Massive AoE damage multiplier with full uptime in density.

 Cir + Vex Double-dips on Poison Imbuement base damage, huge for DoT scaling.

 

Other Viable Options:

 Neo + Ner Grants Unstoppable uptime (\~83%), great for survival.

 Thul Frost Nova-style crowd control, applies Vulnerable + Freeze.

 Jah Movement speed increase for farming builds.

 

Rogue Specialization: Preparation

Preparation reduces Ultimate Cooldown (Death Trap) by 5s for every 75 Energy spent. Because Twisting Blades has rapid energy consumption, this effectively gives us near-permanent uptime on Death Trap, allowing constant resets and DPS uptime.

 Level 15: Versatility Canny Bane Tracker Efficacy

 Level 46: Canny Bane Versatility Tracker Efficacy

 Level 100: Canny > Versatility > Bane > Tracker > Efficacy
