Horadric Spells & Season 9 Synergies
In Season 9, the Horadric Spell system adds new layers of Diablo 4 Items power. For Death Trap builds, the best effects include:
Gravitational Core (Arcana): Increases the pull radius of Death Trap.
Explosive Catalyst (Infusion): Adds an explosion to enemies killed by traps.
Lashing Shadows (Infusion): Resets Imbuement cooldowns if Death Trap hits 5+ enemies.
Tethered Arcana (Catalyst): Links enemies pulled by traps with shared damage.
Time Echo (Arcana): Grants a chance to reset Death Trap cooldown on kill.
Mix and match these depending on your setup and playstyle. Trap builds benefit from cooldown reductions, status spread, and mass AoE.
Best Uniques for Death Trap Rogue
Condemnation (Dagger)
Grants bonus combo point generation and critical damage when attacking enemies affected by crowd control — a perfect match for Death Trap and Caltrops.
Skyhunter (Bow)
Grants guaranteed crits on first hits and bonuses for combo points — excellent for opening burst right after a trap pull.
Grasp of Shadow (Gloves)
Adds a chance to summon a Shadow Clone when using Imbued Skills.
Each clone deals your Core Skill again — huge value for AoE and single-target DPS.
Penitent Greaves
Enemies are chilled when near you; chilled enemies take increased trap damage and Diablo 4 admissions can be frozen for bonus crits.
