Virtuoso - Condi DPS

Weapon Variants

• Phantasmal Warden attacks randomly any target at range. If there are many adds, it might be better to use pistol.

Skill Variants

Utility

• 幻象纹章 can be dropped for more utility if needed.
• 剑刃暴雨 can replace 幻象纹章 for a higher cleave, but at the cost of burst.

Elite

• 谦逊纹章 - large amount of crowd control if needed.

This build requires an extremely high critical chance, ideally 100%, which is why it uses so much Rampager gear. Thankfully, 寂静强烈 helps with this. The build then converts this high crit chance into 流血 damage through 锐利幻象 and 波动思维. This high bleeding output generates an insane amount of Blades with 鲜血之歌, which are then consumed on Shatters/Bladesongs to both deal direct damage and increase your damage with 致死利刃.

Beginner Rotation

For a simpler introduction to Condition Virtuoso, Virtuoso - Condi Chaos DPS is recommended.

Rotation

Opener

The opener isn't extremely strict, but is mostly based around maximising the benefit of 灵活剑客 and 致死利刃.

1. 狂刃风暴 + 旋刃魂曲 during the cast
2. 幻影剑客
3. Weapon Swap
4. 利刃呼唤
5. 幻影守望
6. 幻光纹章
7. 和谐咏刃 - as an ammo skill, we want to get this on cooldown early
8. 幻影守望
9. 千刀万剐 - cast once you hit 10 stacks of 灵活剑客, as an instant cast it can be used during other skills
10. 悲伤咏刃 - use once you're back at fives blades
11. 和谐咏刃 - use once you're back at fives blades
12. 利刃呼唤
13. 剑刃暴雨 or 幻象纹章
14. 悲伤咏刃 - use once you're back at fives blades, this will only be available if you used Signet of Illusions

Rest of the Rotation

Most of the rest of the rotation is using skills off cooldown, though there is some structure:

• Thanks to 鲜血之歌 in combination with 波动思维 and 锐利幻象, you stock blades almost as fast as you can spend them.
  • , and should be used as soon as you reach five blades, with taking priority.
  • deals negligible damage, but can be used to maximise uptime of if you cast it as you are about to lose the buff.
  • Use when is on a long cooldown and is out of charges.
• Use all Dagger skills, and (if using) off cooldown.
• Use as soon as you swap to Focus and Weapon Swap away again as soon as you can
  • Use as soon as it comes off cooldown, and follow up with another - over time will come up later and later in the Focus section. The best choice then will depend on how long the phase will last:
    • If the phase will end within ~50 seconds, stay on Focus each loop until you can use → .
    • If the phase will go on longer, skip for one Focus section so that it is immediately available for the Focus section after that.
• Use as soon as you swap to Sword, use it again when it is off cooldown, and then Weapon Swap immediately.

Defense

• - invulnerability.
• - block.

Sustain

• Dealing damage heals you thanks to .
• When is not on cooldown, every Blade you stock will heal you for a small amount.

Crowd control

• - daze. Daze duration increases with number of stocked Blades.
• ⇒ - daze.
• ⇒ - pull.
• - stun (emergencies only).

Food

Utility

• This setup with 碗装豪华马铃薯大葱汤 provides 60% crit chance, or 100% with 激怒 thanks to 寂静强烈.
• 超级精确法印 should not be used because Illusions do not gain the increased critical chance from it.
• If you want to fully min-max, you can use 大师恶毒令状 and optimise your gear set around it.
• You want to aim for 2155 precision and 100% bleed duration whichever setup you go for.

Optimal Gear

The following gear allows you to benefit from ascended buffs, and will be slightly more DPS if the lifesteal version is used. This does provide 45 additional toughness though, which may interfere with tanking.
