Skill Bar
Skill Variants
Weapons
- Offhand Focus - changes the play pattern towards
逆向转化火焰 synergy, concentrating the sustain and damage into Fire and Earth attunements for an easier and more range-oriented playstyle at the cost of mobility. Consider taking 
"炽火燎原！" or 
火焰纹章.
- Note: This variant is generally better in zergs and when defending from siege.
Utility
流水纹章 - extra sustain with 
逆向转化冰霜 synergy.- "炽火燎原！" - offensive option if taking offhand Focus.
- 火焰纹章 - offensive option if taking offhand Focus.
Elite
炽焰巨剑 - burst damage and mobility, could be a lifesaver when you're getting chased. Good in teamfights and for cleaving downed enemies.

Utility
Usage
Elite Specialization Basics
-
Tempest gains access to Overloads after staying attuned to an element for a period of time. Overloads are stun breaks that pulse while channeling and have a powerful effect at the end.
-
Tempests also gain access to Shouts, which have a large AoE effect that buffs allies and harms enemies.
Pros
- Surprisingly high damage, good AoE, mostly ranged. Excellent downed cleave.
- Exceptional sustain and utility, especially in protracted teamfights near allies; very hard to kill for a DPS. Good AoE healing, boon application (especially
保护 and 
活力), condi cleanse, and auras. - High mobility, thanks to
空气纹章 and offhand Dagger skills. - Good CC
Cons
- Heavily reliant on
燃烧 for damage, lacks cover conditions; can struggle against builds with frequent and reliable cleanse. - Low burst
