Overview

A boon support healer build for Deadeye. Provides permanent 急速 图标急速, 激怒 图标激怒, 25 威能 图标威能, 再生 图标再生, 迅捷 图标迅捷 and 活力 图标活力. It also can provide 保护 图标保护 on demand, but doing so uses initiative that is often better spent on raw healing.

Deadeye can provide easy access to many offensive boons and a strong mixture of direct healing and 屏障 图标屏障.

Unfortunately, this build does have many drawbacks that need to be considered:

  • The healing output of this build is a bit below average, and while it is still plenty for the large majority of fights in this game, it can struggle in high pressure environments.
  • Extremely limited access to group condition cleanse.
  • Limited self-sustain, especially when no allies are nearby, making it a poor option to tank.
  • Primary healing output includes forced movement, occasionally making positioning difficult.
  • No access to group 稳固 图标稳固 or 圣盾 图标圣盾.
  • Heavily relies on using ally-targeted weapon skills to provide the large majority on it's healing. Very few builds use this mechanic, so this can feel quite unnatural and will likely involve setting new keybinds.

Skill Variants

The default utility skills for this build prioritize initiative generation and more uses of 汲取时间 图标汲取时间 thanks to 密室死斗 图标密室死斗 and 致命火力 图标致命火力, you can swap out any of them for the following utility:

  • 渗透纹章 图标渗透纹章 provides a minor amount of initiative regeneration, and can be activated for a small heal via 暗影救星 图标暗影救星.
  • 致盲药粉 图标致盲药粉 can be ran with 暗影庇护 图标暗影庇护 to provide higher 保护 图标保护 uptime, but using it stealths allies. This will mess with other deadeyes in your group and so should be avoided if they are present.
  • 暗影庇护 图标暗影庇护 - The most potent utility skill for burst healing, but on a long cooldown. Comes with the same caveats as 致盲药粉 图标致盲药粉.
  • If more breakbar damage is needed, you may find 石蜥毒液 图标石蜥毒液 valuable.

Utility

Usage

Quickness, Fury and Might

Thanks to the 致命火力 图标致命火力 trait, every stolen skill you gain becomes 汲取时间 图标汲取时间, which gives 急速 图标急速, 激怒 图标激怒, and 威能 图标威能 to allies around you. The trait 密室死斗 图标密室死斗 will give you a new stolen skill every time you cast a Cantrip. As long as you use 神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记 off cooldown, 汲取时间 图标汲取时间 every time you get it, and use any Cantrip skill at least once every 18 seconds, you easily provide permanent uptime on these key boons.

Other Boons

Swiftness and Vigor

100% uptime of these boons are provided by 神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记 (with the 致命快感 图标致命快感 and 慷慨无私 图标慷慨无私 traits).

Protection

Your main source of 保护 图标保护 is from ally-targeted 暗影削弱 图标暗影削弱, which should only be used if your subgroup is mostly full health, otherwise healing via 慎重射击 图标慎重射击 takes priority.

If needed, the combination of 致盲药粉 图标致盲药粉 and 暗影庇护 图标暗影庇护, or 风裔古物 图标风裔古物 can be used to provide additional uptime.

Regeneration

Your main source of 再生 图标再生 is with ally-targeted 无尽黑夜 图标无尽黑夜, which should but spammed as long as you have initiative to spare as it's your main source of healing and barrier.

Healing

Practically everything you do provides some measure of 屏障 图标屏障 or healing:

Weapons

Scepter

Via its allied-targeted abilities, Scepter fills in the gaps in uptime of your key boons, namely 保护 图标保护 with 暗影削弱 图标暗影削弱 and 再生 图标再生 with 慎重射击 图标慎重射击无尽黑夜 图标无尽黑夜. During downtime you can also autoattack an ally to provide AoE 屏障 图标屏障.

When using scepter, it is strongly recommended to have some method for quickly targetting allies: Set/Take Personal Target, Nearest/Next/Previous Ally, or Ally Targeting Mode in the options will all allow this. Go for whichever you find most convenient.

Managing Initiative

As the majority of your healing and barrier comes from allied-targeted weapon skills that cost initiative, managing your initiative is key. Thankfully, this build has plenty of ways to gain more initiative.

Rotation

This build doesn't follow a set rotation, and instead uses skills as they are needed. It can be helpful to follow an opener and a couple useful tips to help maintain boon uptime.

  2. 汲取时间 图标汲取时间
  3. Target an ally

CC

The majority of your CC is from 晕眩 图标晕眩, making a 超级瘫痪法印 图标超级瘫痪法印 especially effective (it affects daze as well).

  • 爆头射击 图标爆头射击 is a 2s 晕眩 图标晕眩, and can be spammed as long as you have initiative.
  • 暗影疾风 图标暗影疾风 provides 382 Defiance Break and can knockback adds, which is relevant of certain fights.
  • 石蜥毒液 图标石蜥毒液 can provide 150 Defiance Break per target you hit, for a maximum potential of 750 on a shorter cooldown, though the CC can be wasted by allies hitting the wrong target.
