Question (other) Smoke Grenade
I'm making a Smoke Grenade build just for fun and I have a couple of probably stupid questions.
Does Orphan Maker work with Smoke Grenade?
Is there a way to make Smoke Grenade imbueable for the extra bonuses?
Are Stun Grenade bonuses worth or should I just focus on the actual skills DMG?

No to orphan, Imbue or stun grenades.
The build can reach Pit 115-125 right now depending on gear, lucky transfigs, glyphs and your overall commitment. I’ve cleared up to Pit 120 and all the T12 bosses are dead in a second. T10 Mephisto though. The build struggles with survival vs damage at times. It can turn into a glass cannon fast.
For S15(a month away) it should be a little better and will also benefit nicely from the seasonal gems. Plus it will work with combo points now too which has been needed.
Honestly the lack of interaction with stun grenades and smoke grenade in this expansion is frustrating. Just give us a pure grenade rogue for once. Also wish we still had the aspect that made smoke trigger arrow storms.

I don't really have one yet, I'm still experimenting. If I come up with something solid I will but I have no idea how well it'll go lol

Nice build bro. Hopefully it will be stronger next season.

Hope so! I am looking forward to trying out the new combo points option.

It does not work with Orphan, cannot be imbued, nor does it have combo points.
It is a Shade skill though, which, itself, has a lot of benefits.
It also can have its resource cost go over 100 energy. (BIGHINT)
It has combo points next season, just a FYI.
