A condition DPS build for Weaver. This build has a complex rotation, but deals strong sustained damage through and , has good access to CC and various utility skills, and even generates ~10 stacks of for your group (even more when using elementals).
元素使 (Elementalist)
[&DQYfJRomOBV0AHQANRc1F8sAywByAHMAEhcSFwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=]
is the flip skill of . The latter will regularly activate during your rotation but the timing can vary. Whenever is used in the rotation be aware you may need to first activate (Fire Shield is instance cast so just double tap it).
Weave Self The majority of the section is very similar to the basic loop, but the basic loop takes slightly too long and so using it here would result in losing the buff just before attuning to Water. Hence some skills are skipped to make the first two loops faster. If in doubt, just attunement swap as soon as you can.
Precast and start in Air/Fire
Fast Loop 1 4. during the cast of Flamewall 5. 6. 7. as soon as it's available 8. 9. 10. as soon as it's available 11. 12.
Fast Loop 2 13. 14. 15. 16. as soon as it's available 17. until Phoenix is available 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. ⇒ 23.
Normal Loop 24. 25. 26. as soon as it's available 27. 28. until Phoenix is available 29. 30. 31. 32. ⇒ 33.
Exit 34. 35. 36. 37.
Basic Loop
This boils down to rotating through ⇒ ⇒ and using other skills off cooldown (see general tips below). You can delay the swap into Fire/Earth slightly if is about to come off cooldown.
The second time you reach you have to do the lead-in slightly differently. At step 7 in the basic loop, go to instead, then:
Opener
The opener for Condi Weaver relies on maximising the effectiveness of . Swapping to provides 20% condi damage (Woven Fire) for the duration of . Attuning to all four elements clears these effects and gives Perfect Weave for a further 10 seconds - providing all the buffs. Therefore, it is valuable to only attune to the final element at the last possible moment in order to gain nearly 30 seconds of the Woven Fire. If you have doubts about your speed or Alacrity/Quickness, then you can attune to instead of at step 30 and then skip ahead to step 37 once is available (not all skills will be available so it is important to cover as much of your time in as possible with the cast time of ).
Begin in Air/Earth
Weave Self Start in Air/Earth
Basic Loop Hammer does not have a perfect loop, but the core structure remains the same. You attune to Dual Fire, then Earth, then back to Dual Fire.
During this, you use the following skills off cooldown:
When is nearly ready, swap to after and repeat the Weave Self section.
大地纹章 is similar DPS to 
小型元素雕文 if you are unable to start the fight with some elementals active. It could also be taken if you don't want to deal with the elemental AI, or if you want the damage reduction.
流水姿态 provides more group healing at the expense of personal healing.
元素和谐雕文 for more burst healing at the expense of sustained healing.If using , precast as many elementals as possible before the fight. Cast the skill in for fire elementals which apply tons of .
Rotations for all versions involve frequent attunement swapping to maximize the usage of high-damage, low cooldown skills particularly whilst is active. While it is ideal to follow the rotations in these examples, encounter mechanics may force you to adapt your rotation around them.
Pistol Pistol skills have a unique mechanic where each skill besides the autoattack will stock a bullet of that element, or consume one for an enhanced effect. This makes the order you use skills in important, as you will want to make sure you're enhancing the skills that provide the best effects.
The skills that we want to enhance are:
Dual skills will consume bullets from both elements, but only stock a bullet from the mainhand element.
While the core loop is simple, maximising damage depends on optimal use of - you want to start with an attunement to fire to get the 20% condition damage boost, then during the 20 second duration work in the other attunements without losing too much damage. Attuning to the final element (water) just as it will expire will grant Perfect Weave for a further 10 seconds and allow you extend the bonus to almost 30 seconds in total.
To keep the rotation more legible, autoattacks will not be included in general.
Other Rotations:
Start in Earth/Earth with Fire and Earth bullets stocked.
Weave Self
The only real option from core relics is , though this doesn't trigger on every encounter.
Food

The second time you reach you have to do the lead-in slightly differently. At step 8 in the basic loop, go to instead, then:
As you won't have pre-cast this time, you'll need to use ⇒ instead at step 12 of the Weave Self opener
This build has access to CC options that are easier to use than Staff Weaver, however it still faces the problem of having to wait for two attunement swap cooldowns before gaining access to most of its CC skills.
For the Dagger build:
As you won't have pre-cast this time, you'll need to use ⇒ instead at step 11 of the Weave Self opener
Loop
Compared to the section, the central loop is very simple. You bounce between Earth and Fire, bookending earth sections with and fire sections with .
Weave Self
Performed perfectly with perfect boons, will come off cooldown again in Earth/Earth and can immediately be used again. Below is an example loop based on these assumptions. In practice, you may need to improvise somewhat but bear the following in mind:
From Earth/Earth
