Adding Aspects to your items is one way to turn rare items into legendary ones. It also allows you to add effects to your weapons to create some amazing builds. They will enhance your character a lot. Here are all the Codex of Power Aspects Rogues can use and where to find them.

What Are Codex Of Power Aspects?

A Players Codex Of Power Showing Their Aspects

Aspects are one of the most important parts of having a successful build in Diablo 4. They allow you to add additional effects to your weapons, armor, and jewelry that weren't there before. These effects will make rare items turn into legendary items. They will also go a long way in ensuring that you can create the best character. Regular Aspects are extracted from weapons at the Occultist. They can only be used once on an item before disappearing.

If you have a Codex of Power Aspect, you have found it by completing one of the many dungeons scattered around Sanctuary. These can be used as many times as you want and are shared account-wide. This means if you are playing a Rogue and find a Barbarian Aspect, you can create a Barbarian and use that Aspect. It is recommended that you wait until a higher level to use any Aspects, especially those that are one-time uses. This is due to the fact that you will constantly find better items while leveling up.

There are 5 different types of Aspects. Depending on what type of Aspect you have, you can apply it to different pieces of your equipment. Here are the 5 different types and which pieces they can be applied to.

  1. Defensive - Amulets, Chest Armor, Helms, Pants, and Shields
  2. Mobility - Amulets and Boots
  3. Offensive - One-Handed Weapons, Two-Handed Weapons, Amulets, Gloves, and Rings.
  4. Resource - Only Rings
  5. Utility - Amulets, Boots, Chest Armor, Gloves, Helms, and Shields
