General

• Playstyle: this build is all about weaving hard hitting skills into chains of block and evade frames. The combos aren't set in stone, rather you'll need to adapt based on what CDs are available. Minimize melee contact, dodge/block/evade as many things as possible, and spike targets when an opening shows. Examples:

  • from outside melee range ⇒ dodge to your target ⇒ ⇒
  • ⇒ weapon swap ⇒ ⇒

• and causes applications to heal you and grant a tiny bit of endurance.

  • Add to the mix and basically turns into a healing skill with 2 charges.

• If possible, dodge into enemies to damage them with and generate . This is especially useful if you're ed as the damage of the dodge will miss, consuming the condition and allowing you to immediately follow up with something.

• Use and in combat to get out of via the trait .

• Swapping weapons in the middle of a burst cancels them and retains the adrenaline. You can use this to your advantage by baiting dodges with or to keep your adrenaline if you know a burst won't land. can also be stowed instead of weapon swapped.

• Burst skills - and :

  • These are vital skills for the build and you should do your best to land them. CC targets beforehand with or , time them to hit just after the target has dodged, etc.
  • You gain 15 endurance via if the skill hits.
  • Most of your adrenaline should be spent on , as its damage scales with adrenaline level. For it doesn't matter, the damage is always the same - only the duration scales.
  • Try to land right (or shortly) after swapping to GS to benefit from .

• can be your make or break skill during duels or downing an opponent. Try to use it at the end of a player's dodge or stability to make it even harder to dodge, and make the most out of it. Alternatively, this can be used defensively for the evasion and mobility to avoid damage or disengage from a fight.
