Detailed Explanations
Burst Damage
- Start fights in Hammer, conserve
狂暴 until your commander commits to the fight - Once your commander commits, use
怒气纹章 to fill your Adrenaline then activate
狂暴
- After using
狂暴 follow the following priority:
- The goal of this rotation is to land as many Primal Burst skills as possible within the smallest time window possible
- Make sure you are in range of
超级水能法印 when swapping to your Greatsword set

Make sure every time you weapon swap your skill usage is Primal Burst ⇒ Weapon Swap ⇒ Primal Burst
- By using your Primal Burst as soon as you enter a weapon set it will be available right before your Weapon Swap is ready
- This also stacks your highest damage skills to burst enemies down, instead of spreading them out
- By using your Primal Burst as soon as you enter a weapon set it will be available right before your Weapon Swap is ready
-
Use
破甲跃击 immediately after a Primal Burst skill to refill Adrenaline and deal solid damage -
When using
破甲跃击 or
震裂重槌 make sure to aim to the side or behind the enemy group, not the middle or in front of them -
Maximizing the amount of primal bursts you cast by using your very fast weapon swap cooldown is very important
-
百刃斩 is situational. You stand still during channel, which means hitting CC'ed, movement impaired and downed foes is the ideal setup for this ability. -
Save
旋风斩 to disengage back to your group, but try to hit enemies with it when possible since the Evade Evade will protect you while dealing decent damage -
Beware the animation lock of
突击斩. Its best use is for single target damage while already in melee, but even then it must be used very carefully if at all

Start fights in Longbow, conserve
狂暴 until your commander commits to the fight, do not use it on range spikes- Your damage at range is minimal outside of
狂暴 but using it too early will only lead to padding the damage meter without doing useful damage - don't play to pad the meter
- Your damage at range is minimal outside of

Once your commander commits, use
怒气纹章 to fill your Adrenaline then activate
狂暴 -
Make sure to drop your target when casting
焦土炙箭 otherwise it will aim towards the target instead of where your character is facing- A Lock Autotarget keybind can be useful for this
-
Since all your Longbow skills other than
焦土炙箭 are projectiles, avoid casting them into projectile blocks/reflects -
Your Longbow skills other than
弧线箭矢 all require facing the target at the end of the cast -

Battle Standard
- revives allies in its entire radius and finishes downed enemies in its center radius
- You should focus on using for finishing enemies, especially once you've used your burst
- If you predict enemies will go down on your groups spike you can pre-cast to finish them before the enemy group can respond with rez skills
- If no other revive skills are avalible from supports, use to rez groups of 3+ allies
