This build is archived and currently not getting updated. Keep in mind the patches following the last update in the changelog when using this setup.

Welcome to the One Shot Rogue Specialized Build Guide! The purpose of this build is to one-shot every Boss in the game, including Uber and Tormented Bosses! This build excels at that, but should not be used outside of that. So if you like a big Kamehame-Ha using Rapid Fire, this is the build for you. The Gear, Skills, Paragon Board, "Seasonal Content" and Gameplay setup are unique to this build and require a strong understanding of the class to pilot it properly!

Our Specialized Builds are lategame builds with specific requirements and purposes. In order to play them, you are expected to have a level 100 character and all of the listed items available. To get there, we recommend you use one of our existing lvl 50-100 Endgame Build Guides.

Season 4 - Loot Reborn

In Season 4, the Season Theme revolves around helping out the Iron Wolves. Compared to past themes, this one does not offer any borrowed power as the entire game has been redesigned with new itemization and crafting options, increasing player power substantially across the board. Instead, you can gather reputation similar to the Vampire Bounty Board from Season 2 to unlock rewards that supercharge your leveling journey to 100 with extra items, crafting materials and eventually even a Resplendent Spark to craft an uber unique.

We recommend to follow the seasonal questline until you unlock the reputation system, check which rewards suit you most and then follow your regular leveling path. To learn more, check out our full Season 4 guide for more information.

Gameplay

The One Shot Rogue rotation is quite intricate and requires precise execution of the necessary steps. If you don't execute all of the steps properly, your damage will likely take a nosedive. So follow the 10-step guideline below to Kamehame-Ha properly. To further boost the combo, you can drink an Elixir of Resource II

  1. Spam Rapid Fire to stack Banished Lord's Talisman to 275 before spawning the boss.
  2. Prepare aligning Aspect of Elements to be on Cold when you stagger the boss.
    1. This may require doing a fight a few times to figure out the correct spawn timing.
    2. If the boss is staggered during Physical, do not use Cold Imbuement.
  3. Spam Puncture to trigger your Lucky Hit Chance to X effects for a quick stagger.
    1. This will incidentially give you necessary stacks:
      • 4 Precision stacks
      • 3 Combo Points
      • 3 Expectant stacks
      • 15 Exploit Weakness stacks
  4. Drop Caltrops on the boss around 3 seconds before the stagger.
    1. This also activates Ambush and Deadly Ambush.
  5. Use Dash on the boss twice while walking around 3m in between to:
    • Activate Tricks of the Trade
    • Activate Enhanced Dash
    • Activate Impetus
      • Dash entirely resets Impetus' distance counter if dashing does not reach the 12m threshold.
      • You can guarantee gaining Impetus by:
        1. Dashing once
        2. Moving 3m (just a few steps really)
        3. Dashing again
        4. The 2nd Dash will always grant you Impetus upon landing if done correctly.
  6. Finish staggering the boss and Evade to activate Advanced Rapid Fire.
  7. Use Shadow Clone to
    • Activate Beastfall Boots
    • Activate Unstoppable to trigger Tibault's Will
  8. Use Cold Imbuement if your Elements is on Cold.
  9. Check your buffs and make sure:
    1. Expectant and Caltrops are still active
    2. You are at maximum Health to max the Overpower Damage Multiplier
    3. Have maximum Energy
  10. Shoot your Rapid Fire at the boss for a big Kamehame-Ha!
