As soon as you start playing as the Rogue, you should immediately look for armor that makes the best aspects of the class better. If you’re playing on the higher World Tiers, being able to withstand a lot of damage becomes crucial. This comes in the form of the Grasp of Shadows. This guide will show you how to get Grasp of Shadows in Diablo 4.
Diablo 4: How to get Shadow Grasp
Now, Rogues in Diablo 4 were somewhat more reliable before Season 1, afterwards, they’ve become rather different. In fact, it seems like the class has gotten a little stronger overall, but still hard to play. These gloves are probably one of the pieces of gear that can make the class a little more worthwhile based on what they can do.
Before getting into what they do, let’s search for them. First, since the Grasp of Shadows falls in the Unquie category for gear, this means you must be playing on World Tier 4. In order to get these gloves, you have to have them drop. This means, while on World Tier 4, look for chests, go through dungeons, and attempt the many Hell Tide Events. However, it does seem like the gloves have a high drop rate on the fourth World Tier.
Before going any further, some players have reported that these gloves may be bugged out. In that, for some instances, the attributes don’t work as they’re supposed to. But, for Season 1, Blizzard Entertainment may have fixed it.
Benefits of Shadow Grasp
For what the gloves do, it’s quite impressive. Your attack speed, Vulnerable damage, and Core skills do a lot more. But, that’s not the coolest part of these gloves. When Rogues use a Marksmen or Cutthroat skill, and it triggers Lucky Hit, you get a 20-30 percent chance of spawning a Shadow Clone, which can copy your attacks. So you could potentially get double the damage with these gloves. Which in turn, may make the Rogue easier to play.
Rogues in Diablo 4 seem to get the short end of the stick mainly due to how hard the game can be for them, which makes them less fun to play. They have light armor but are fast on their feet, so there’s some compromise. However, with light armor, you get low health, which can make Diablo 4 as a whole fairly harder to play.
