After deciding to stay on Rogue for the whole Season, I try a variety of builds. I decided to give DT a shot for the first time and it was fun to put together, to get the starter version rolling and finally transition to the endgame setup. It was powerful, but squishy.

Then RoA became the meta and I decided to give it try. It was very similar to DT after all, but tankier. Same cycle of going for a starter to get the feel until I could transition to endgame. It could push about 5 Pits higher than my DT, around 115 and 120 at the time.

There was an item looking at me in my Stash tho. By pure chance I had a Mythic Selig laying around. I had only tried in the Barb in Season 13. I played 90% of the time on a homecooked Apoca Warlock, struggling a bit. It was only in the last week of the season that I decided to make a Barb (also for the first time) and try the famous Selig WW. In that short time I managed to push it to T10 Mephisto for the Season Journey, but if left an impression on me.

I thought Selig was a Barb item, but it was there in my Rogue stash, and there was already some noise about Selig Rogues: the Selig RoA and Selig DT. I was already farming T10 and T11 Reaper, and had completed T10 Mephisto, why not give the immortal Rogue a try, so there we go.

First was the Selig RoA. Solid, tanky, a bit clunky at the start but it quickly better and better. Managed upwards Pit 130, so my next goal was clear, get T12 Mephisto. I tried my luck, my damage was "there", and after a short grinding and tunning, I did it! First T12 Mephisto and on Selig RoA!

I thought that'd be it, but honestly Death Trap stole my hard. I had to do a short comeback. Farmed some Pandas again to roll for non-Life Mythics, put the thing together and started to tune it right. It became more fluid, it could take a punch in T12 unlike my regular DT build and handle Pit 125 quite ok. The build is barebones. Not all my affixes are right and most of the Transmogs are... well, at least not detrimental. But it was already running, so I decided to a last milestone. T12 Mephisto on Selig Death Trap. It took me this afternoon, some adjustments and about 5 tries. And here it is! The latest stop in my Journey. 550+ Resource and ~480 recovery on each attack!

I did a short Tower 120 on it just for the record, if someone cares to have a look. As I said, the affixes and transmogs are barebones. It needs a couple of rounds of Panda grinding to print some Mythics that can be really called Mythical gear, some are 0 GAs beside the Temper, but this setup can handle T12 Mephisto so I'm happy with that. It is tankish, has infinite step mobility to zoom, attacks fast and feels great to play. It is Paragon 248 and to this point I have not gotten a Mythic Seal yet. Who knows, maybe I'll get one at some point to try and go even higher, but this is Aksnes for you all!

Cheers!
