Tempest - Condi DPS

• 超级渴求法印 only deals slightly more damage than a 超级大地法印, which is much cheaper.

This is a build focuses on 燃烧 and 流血 and offers high damage with a relatively simple rotation.

Thanks to the Earth traitline and 坚固传导, this build has more survivability than other elementalist builds.

With Warhorn, skills like 热力同步 and 砂石狂啸 allow you can maintain permanent 激怒 and 威能 on yourself and party (provided you have some other source of 激怒) for a minor DPS loss.

Food

• 稀有素菜披萨, 锦鲤蛋糕, or ascended alternatives.

Utility

• 大师调谐水晶 or 协调冰柱.
  • 剧毒调谐水晶 are stronger if you don't have Spiteful Infusions, but the difference is practically nonexistant.

Weapon Variants

• Dagger/Warhorn is the best weapon set for players that don't own Secrets of the Obscure.

Skill Variants

• 大地纹章 deals more damage than 风暴雕文, but the traited passive you gain from 石刻纹章 still applies 180 toughness, which can mess with tanking.
• If you do not have time (e.g. during pre-events) to pre-cast 小型元素雕文 a few times, then 元素能量雕文 may be a stronger choice.

Pistol Rotation

Pistol skills have a unique bullet mechanic where using a pistol skill stocks a bullet, or if you already have a bullet, consumes it for an enhanced effect. In each attunement, one of the enhanced effects is defensive while the other is offensive. As such, it is important that these skills be used in the correct order to avoid missing out on damage.

Stocked bullets appear as buffs on your bar, and as all attunements use an even number of pistol skills, you can track whether you've made a mistake in these attunements and adjust for future loops - you should be exiting 火焰协调, 流水协调 and 大地协调 with a bullet stocked, and 空气协调 with no bullet stocked. If this is not the case, skip one of the skills in the relevant attunement on the next loop.

Throughout the rotation, use 烈焰轰炸 off cooldown, and 小型元素雕文 and 元素能量雕文 (if using) off cooldown whenever you are in 火焰协调.

Autoattacks are not listed.
