Skill Variants

Weapon

• Dagger over Warhorn - more DPS and defensive CDs in trade for burst damage.
• Longbow with Snow Leopard over Sword - High range burst alternative. Made into a much stronger weapon with the help of 疾速箭射.

Utility

• 狩猎纹章 over "快保护我！" - trades sustain for a signet that's useful against any build that relies on blocking or projectile reflection for survival.
• 磐石纹章 over 风暴精魂 - trades burst damage for better sustain.

You can take the following optional pets:

• Snow Leopard - Higher damage alternative.

• Smokescale - Weaker alternative with higher sustain, great option if you already have the expansions.

General

When safe to do so, lead the approach with your pets. Once your pet closes the gap use you should use your multiple leaps to also close the gap doing massive damage once in close. Once you become at risk use the same leaps to once again widen the gap.

Sustain

• Your primary way to keep the pet alive is by using Pet Swap try to save this for as late as possible as to reduce the chance of the next pet dying to fresh cooldowns.

• + /// - Pairing these allow for extra evades and blocks that aren't usually possible.

• - Short uptime, used to escape pressure.

• / - Great defensive option primarily for countering power and hybrid damage builds.

• Weapon Swap & is where most of your cleansing will come from. You'll want to save for the last moment as the passive regen is high value, however if you do use this skill then make sure to Pet Swap before the pet dies.

• should be used in combination with your multiple leap finishers for bonus healing. You can heal up to 60% more after using all leap finishers.

• - Minor passive regenration but be sure to save yourself from using this as much as possible. Although the regen seem small it adds up overtime and can be a game changer in duels.

Doing damage Pets: A major source of your damage comes from your pets. Without them you become much weaker.

1. Use when timed alongside your burst for greatest effectivness.
2. Use Marsh Drake when you want to put on as much pressure and burst damage as possible
