I’ve been playing Diablo 4’s Season 10 recently, and the Twisting Blades Rogue build really stands out as a smart way to get the best of both worlds—melee and ranged combat. Typically, Rogue builds in Diablo 4 focus on one or the other, but Twisting Blades lets you pierce an enemy up close and then pull your blade back, damaging foes both ways. This double-threat style makes fights super dynamic and satisfying.
What makes it even better is how it mixes well with the Rogue’s traps, turning the gameplay into fast-paced crowd control and damage. The key skills I focused on are Twisting Blades itself, Caltrops, Poison Imbuement, Dash, Poison Trap, and Death Trap. Twisting Blades deals the main damage, but the Poison Trap and Poison Imbuement add nice damage over time effects, softening enemies before your blades finish them off. I found Caltrops really useful too since it slows enemies, giving you more control and time to hit them

Dash is surprisingly crucial in this build. It’s not just good for dodging—it actually triggers some important perks and keeps your energy flowing. Without solid mobility, this build can feel clunky, but Dash lets you zip around the battlefield, repositioning to keep up that momentum.
An important part of making this build really shine is the synergy with Chaos Armor and Chaos Perks, which were introduced in Season 10. For example, the Grasp of Shadow Unique armor piece combined with Bands of Ichorous Rose gear boosts Poison Trap damage and summons a Shadow Clone. This clone can use Twisting Blades too, doubling your damage output without needing to choose between abilities.
However, the Chaos Perks add a layer of complexity. Enervated Strikes can make you cast Twisting Blades twice but stops passive energy generation, so you need to be careful managing your resources. Hit and Run increases damage after moving a set distance, but there’s a catch—a damage penalty when the perk isn’t active. That means you really have to keep moving and use Dash constantly to avoid hurting yourself.
Overall, Twisting Blades Rogue in Season 10 rewards aggressive, mobile play with a clever mix of traps and blade attacks. It’s perfect if you like a build that feels both fast and strategic. I’m having a blast with it and definitely recommend giving it a go if you want a fresh Rogue experience this season
