PVE build for rogue

[Demonharphas]

Hello everyone, I am a level 41 rogue and I am currently using this Pve build:
1/5 Pierce
5/5 nox
2/5 razor shield
5/5 aimed shot
3/5 shadow veil
Passives:
4/5 armor
5/5 crit
5/5 damage
5/5 dex
5/5 strength
Here is a picture of my stats with malison as a pet
83250
My gear:
Expedition recurve of brutality
Mythic helm
Mythic armor
Archon ring of brutality level 41
Tarlok's heart of potency level 36
All of my gear has fire gems.
My mana is quite low so I have to use mana pots every time.
So is my Build ok or should i change it?
Thanks :)

Your build is not bad, but i think you should build a little better. For me 4 build pve different exist in different situation.

1 : pve special boss
2 : pve special mobs
3 : pve special run
4 : pve hybrid (boss/mobs)

Dont respe all time ! just a choose one, depending on what you want to do generaly.

(I could be wrong about what I said earlier, this is just my logic and my experience)

I am no expert at builds but what I now have on my rogue is:
5/5 aim
5/5 nox
4/5 veil (no explode)
4/5 traps (no explode)
2/5 pierce (armor reduction, swap with trap at boss)

Max passive agi, int, str and dmg (though I may change this sometime soon. )

I am currently using
Exp recurve of potency 41
Magma blades of brut 41
Myth helm/armor
Myth ring
Fang of fenrir

All fire gems, a couple if supers here and there.
Without a pet, my stats look somewhat like this:
HP: 3.4k (blades) , 3.3k (bow)
Mana: 1k (blades), 1.2k (bow)
Dmg: 451-453 (blades-bow)
Crit: 22

I always fight with a party so I prefer traps and veil for maximum aoe efficiency at mobs. I know razor shield would help me dodge a couple of hits while im placing traps and veil but I feel nox is more versatile and especially useful in elite shuyal. I also opted out of using razor shield since it has such high mana cost and a long cd too.

As it is I feel like my mana pool is already too low, but at less than 700 I'm sure you're drinking your way thru mana pots more than I am. You may want to consider switching to a potency bow for a little bit more mana since your ring already makes your stats lean toward dmg and hp.

I'd love to hear from the pros :) I know we're having second thoughts to veil's dmg upgrade and passive dmg.

Aze, do you have numbers on how much damage the trap explode upgrade deals? I go 4-5 on traps too but am unsure if the explosion is worth it. Thanks!

Its better than 25 more health

[wvhills]

i use the following:

5/5 aimed
5/5 nox
2/5 pierce (return 10% health upgrade)
4/5 veil
4/5 traps

5/5 dex, int, str and crit

As you can see I have 5 skills. I use veil, nox and aimed all the time. During runs (except wilds because mobs are spread out too much) I use traps and switch it out for pierce at the boss. I don't have top equips or pets and i think veil helps me survive. If I had the best stuff I'd do like Aze and not mess with it.

Few remarks and questions (far from being a pro),

concenrning pierce
When you have to flee boss strike With 3/5 pierce (charged) you will end far from the boss when there is no remaining mobs. Without the three target upgrade do I end close to boss?
Moreover in standarsd maps 3 strikes + heal help you save pots.

People seems to thinks that now traps become useless in new maps.

As dmg does not stack with other dmg buff it seems to become almost useless. Must we prefer rapidity buff?
