The Rogue in Diablo 4 attacks enemies using quick attacks and agile movements. In addition to skills you can use, there are also talents that provide some benefits that synergize with your playstyle. Here’s our Diablo 4 Rogue talent overview guide to help you with the perks you can unlock and select.
Diablo 4 Rogue talents
Diablo 4 Rogue feats, similar to other classes, use a tier grouping system. You can unlock certain options by spending some talent points, and some can also be upgraded further. We’ve enumerated them below, noting possible upgrades and connected nodes. Likewise, you should look at the effect of each passive.

Some are even related to the Imbuement system, where you can infuse abilities with poison, shadow, or cold damage.
