Daredevil - Condi DPS

Spirit Vale

Salvation Pass

Stronghold of the Faithful

Bastion of the Penitent

Hall of Chains

Mythwright Gambit

The Key of Ahdashim

The standard condition DPS build for Daredevil. This build spams venoms and 死亡绽放 on bosses to inflict heavy 流血 and 中毒. Due to evading for most of its rotation, it can easily avoid boss attacks. It also provides high utility to its squad with raid boss stolen skills.

Due to this build's high ramp-up time it's best used on raid bosses with no phases or adds. It performs poorly on any boss with invuln phases, or instant kill attacks that it has a chance to accidentally move into while using 死亡绽放.

Food

• 盘装泡菜煎饼

Utility

• 剧毒调谐水晶
  • 协调冰柱 or 强效大师调谐水晶 for a cheaper alternative

Your goal is to maintain 莲舞训练 and 15 stacks of 主导攻击 while using your high-damage utility skills.

Rotation

1. 准备千针万箭
2. 顺手牵羊 during the cast of 准备千针万箭
3. 千针万箭
4. Dodge
5. Use venoms during the dodge animation
6. 死亡绽放 x3
7. Dodge
8. 死亡绽放
9. Auto-attack chain once
10. Dodge
11. 死亡绽放
12. Repeat from step 9

• Use Weapon swap, venoms, 准备千针万箭 and 顺手牵羊 when they are off cooldown.
• Use 活力引导 before or after any auto-attack chain when you are out of endurance.

Notes

• During the main loop, you may find it easier to swap the order of 穿刺莲舞 and 死亡绽放, instead jumping into your target with 死亡绽放 then dodging back out with 穿刺莲舞.
• If you are inside the boss's hitbox and there are other enemies nearby, 穿刺莲舞 will deal up to triple damage to the boss.
• Be careful not to cancel the auto attack chain as 毒莲打击 deals more damage than 双重打击 and 狂野打击 combined.
• You should try to use 顺手牵羊 while you do not have full initiative in order to benefit from 利己主义 and 妙手耐力.
• You should try to use 活力引导 while you do not have full endurance.
• You should only use venoms while four other allies are in range (This includes Mesmer clones, Necromancer minions, and Ranger pets).

Breakbar

• 石蜥毒液

Weapon Variants

• Offhand Pistol can be taken in the second set to offer decent CC on demand.
  • If using, you should swap the 超级厄运法印 for a 超级渴求法印.

Skill Variants

Utility Always keep 蜘蛛毒液 as it is a significant portion of your damage. If you need to replace skills, replace 噬蝎毒液.

• 撒播蒺藜 are in theory higher damage, but to gain full value the boss needs to remain in place for 10s so all ticks hit, and it will lose additional value on encounters with phases, as 噬蝎毒液 can be precast.
• 阻碍匕首 (with 顽强斗士) could replace 准备千针万箭 on encounters with high movement uptime.
• 强横防御 for a block and stun break.
• 暗影疾步 for extra mobility and stun break.

Elite

• Use 冲撞打击 for faster breakbar damage, on fights with multiple adds and on Matthias Gabrel, where 石蜥毒液 has no effect on the encounter's breakbars.
• Use 同仇敌忾 for fights that do not have breakbars.

• Equip your main hand dagger in your first weapon set and your second dagger in your second weapon set. This lets you weapon swap for without having to obtain 4 daggers.

Non-SotO Relics

is the standard core relic option, though it only works if you regularly take damage from the boss (boss aura ticks count but not all bosses have one).

Otherwise, there aren't any reliable core damage relics for condi daredevil, though there are a few options that might be good:

• - depending on the boss, you might be able to trigger this a lot, and it is theoretically stronger than the recommended relic.
• - If your uptime is bad, then more endurance is valuable.
