The FanTANKstic Rogue

Greetings & welcome all rogue fans!

  This is a new setup I've been theorycrafting for Rogue! It is a tanky-dps setup similar to the suntank one and boy oh boy has it been alot of fun! It's playstyle is very similar to my Thing-Rockslide roller build in that it never stops moving, so is a perfect way to do fullclears in places like Terminals or patrols/limbo & because it's based off of suntank's setup require's very little to swap to if you've already been using that build as this is also a full area build (except for drain life).

[Update 4/21/25] Added some additional power alternatives, and insignia alternatives.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Power Selections:

Due to having all 4 Fantastic Four powers selected our Fantastic Funnel get's the full effects & most Importantly Provides a constant 25% Damage Resistance effect while we spin-to-win and is our Main filler spender used. This allows us more room to adjust Rogue's  3rd stolen trait to suit whatever your needs are.

Absorbtion Augments (Traits/passives): Alternatives

Clobberin' Time! & Spider-Sense are the core portion of this setup and one's we want to keep.

However the 3rd option which is currently Symbiotic Bond can be swapped based off personal preference.

Here are some decent 3rd option's i've tried with this setup so far that can all work depending on what you want

Dps Options:

• Homicidal Tendencies (Great for clearing places where the bosses have lots of adds nearby (patrols/limbo) to maintain the stacking buff.)
• Fluid Combat (another great option for the Movespeed/Base Dmg & speed buff as speed scales our dodge multiplier)
• Demolition Lowers your signature cooldown and buffs it by 10% which is great for clearing & burst.
• Weapons Specialist (buffs our main spender and drain life but won't effect her sig or other abilities
• True Friend buffs both you and your team-up and is another decent option.
• Destroyer's Vengeance can help boost your brutal strike by +25%, but at the cost of -10% crit rate, would only really reccomend this if your at least around 50%-60% crit rate in combat with buffs before turning this passive on.

Tanky Options:

• Super Soldier Serum Provides a big chunk of deflect ratings & a flat +15% Deflect chance(Perfect choice if you want to beef it up even further)
• Superhuman Longevity Addition Defense & defense multiplier
• Unsuspecting Hero Provides either a flat 10% Dodge or 10% Deflect buff for 10s when you use your medkit.

Utility Options:

• Unconventional Inspiration For better spirit sustain
• Superior Healing Factor For some passive health regeneration
• Mutagenic Durability provide More health & % based hp regen

Alternative Stolen skill combo's:

• Fluid Combat + Swooping Flames work well together and can significantly boost your movespeed, to make use of those you can swap out X-23's & Venom's skills. While using a in place of her own hero slot 5 or in place of GoTK to maintain vulnerability for that xtra 10% damage.
• Wrath of Muspelheim can replace X-23's and provides a nice damage ratings buff, but again would require a gear swap like above to maintain vulnerability on the target.

Gearing:

Uniques:
 Rogue's own personal hero Uniques are all perfectly good to use while starting out and strongly recommended, however here are some other addition options you can choose as well.

Slot 1: (additional hp regen), , , (good for taking away Cosmic Bulwark on bosses),

Slot 2: (Roughly equal in damage to the X-men uniform, but most importantly helps provide spirit management from both spirit on hit and %cost reduction).

Slot 3:,

Slot 4: ,

Slot 5: , , ,

 

Artifacts:

, , , , , , , ,

 

Medallions:

Power duration is one of our most important stats as lots of things scale with it, so either a good War Skrull Medallion or Doctor Doom medallion are your best choices imho.

, , , ,

 

Legendary alternatives:

ilvl70 - (largest dps gain, comparable to even ilvl80 choices since we can get all 3 dmg types active) or .

 

ilvl80 - , ,

 

Insignia alternatives:

is a great 2nd option, as the movespeed on enemy defeat is a nice Qol for speed clearing, , , , , .
