Diablo 4's Rogue class is an agile unit specializing in the use of daggers and ranged weaponry. Typically, very agile and adept at using both sets of weapons, Rogues are typically stealthy, assassin-like characters and suited to players who like agile and versatile builds who do not tend to absorb a lot of damage.
While these different armor sets are purely cosmetic, it would seem that some of them are certainly more intricately designed than others, and will make rogues stand out from the crowd in multiplayer scenarios. Different components in armor sets can be taken to a Blacksmith (indicated by a pickaxe icon) in order to change the appearance of legendary pieces while retaining the stats and bonuses players prefer.
10 Doom Set
The Doom Set is a quite menacing-looking dark and ethereal look which will give the player an inhuman and otherworldly look. With a dark red color to the clothing and some ornate should and forearm guards, this design gives the rogue an appearance of a truly hellish apparition.
The only real detractor from this armor set is the mask, which appears to make the player look more like a ghoulish zombie than a fearsome fighter and has a typical Halloween, skull-like visage. The Doom armor set can be acquired by looting enemies and chests around the map and is relatively common to find.
9 Adventurer's Set
The Adventurer's Set is a very cool and unique styled set that gives the player the look of an experienced ancient assassin. Primarily adorned with golden mail-like armor pieces, the highlight of this set is the faceless mask which emits the aura of an unfeeling, expressionless warrior.
The set has a nice uniform look and presents the player as a well-traveled Adventurer, though in comparison to some other designs the armor looks comparatively frail. The Adventurer's Set will also be a special drop from certain enemies and can be applied as a Transmog via a Blacksmith.
8 Archon Set
The Archon Set is primarily silver and blue in color and presents the player with the look of some kind of elite guard or mercenary. The jeweled epaulets and leather straps holding together the sturdy woven armor make this armor set appear both hand-crafted and extremely unique.
The outfit is rounded off with some bulky ornate arm guards and leather boots with metallic decorations. Additionally, it has a unique feature of displaying some throwing knives on the front, though these are purely decorative. The fanged mask gives the Archon Set a snake-like, intimidating appearance. Like the previous sets, this armor can be found as loot from fallen enemies or in chests.
7 Coven's Set
The Coven's Set is very unique and will present the player as a mysterious Rogue character with one of the coolest masks in the game. As the name might suggest, this look has a very grounded, medieval pagan look to it, with a hint of the mystical but the certainty of a hardened killer.
The outfit is all black and almost ninja-like in its appearance. The exception to this, which is perhaps the set's greatest item, is the medieval plague-doctor-style mask which can be equipped as a helm. Aside from this, however, the outfit is relatively bland and predominantly consists of black leather and cloth.
6 Boneweave Set
The Boneweave armor set is one of the most appropriate-looking Rogue armor sets and feels right at home in the Diablo universe. As the name suggests, this armor set is adorned with skulls on the shoulders and thick-set bone armor along the shins and forearms.
The outfit also has a samurai-like menpo mask and occult symbolism as a decoration on the front of the boots. Like most of the rogue armor sets, this set has a hooded appearance and thus gives the Rogue a look of stealth mastery.
5 Warlord Set
The Warlord Set is unlike any other Rogue armor set and will present players as esteemed warriors from a seemingly advanced cultural institution. The gold-plated and carefully-crafted armor is some of the most aesthetically pleasing in the game, and the Predator-like mask gives this set a fearsome look.
Stand-out features of this armor set are the shoulder guards, which have three gigantic spikes protruding from them, almost appearing like a weapon in themselves. The clothing has a light and agile look, and it would seem that the armor set has some kind of avian inspiration.
4 Glorious Set
The Glorious Set appears to be a more advanced version of the Highland or Sand-Worn armor sets and will give players the look of an ancient Eastern assassin. Almost Pharaoh-like in appearance, the outfit is primarily blue with gold metal plating, though the armor does not cover the entirety of the player's arms and legs.
The gold armor parts look extremely strong and durable, and in the style of classical Egypt, have an almost futuristic, alien-like sophistication to them. The mask is also very unique in this armor set as it is entirely made of gold and will cover the entirety of the character's face.
3 Sovereign Set
The Sovereign Set consists of primarily leather equipment such as a medieval gambeson, along with emerald or jade ornaments giving the set a look of sophistication. The set includes a similar snake-like fanged mask to the Archon Set, but this one is un-hooded and overall appears more green than blue.
Much like the Archon set, the Sovereign set also has ornate patterns carved on the boots, but the real highlight is the jade ornamental shoulder piece and lightweight design overall. The Druid and Necromancer armor sets are also stand-outs in their classes among this particular set type.
2 Primal Set
The Primal Set will give Rogues the appearance of an almost supernatural, reptilian being - and will perfectly suit the aesthetic and atmosphere of the Diablo 4 universe. With a slight emerald tint similar to that of the Sovereign set, the Primal set also looks sleek and lightweight, only more menacing on account of its mask.
Borrowing elements from a wide range of the aforementioned designs, the Primal Set contains a bit of everything and is sure to look good on Rogues of all levels and play styles. It can also make a great match for the Primal Instinct appearance applicable to mounts in the game.
1 Runic Set
The Runic Set is by far the most elaborate and ornately designed armor set available for any Rogue to equip. Consisting of contrasting purple fabric with thick gold armor, the stand-out feature of this set is its extremely intricate and menacing gold mask, hiding the player's face and eyes behind two cavernous dark holes. The mask itself is also spectacular and is decorated with very precise engravings.
In addition to this, the Runic Set also has a number of special gems embedded within it such as a captivating sapphire gemstone lodged in the central belt piece. The carved golden skull as a shoulder epaulet also solidifies this set as the best-looking Rogue Armor Set in Diablo 4.
Diablo 4 is available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
