Equipment
Traits & Skills
Traits
Skills
"灵魂夺取！" can be replaced when needed:
症状吞噬 for large Condition Removal
"弱者退散！" can be replaced when needed:
鬼灵缚爪 to group up enemies or as Defiance Break
"无尽苦痛！" for the Condition Removal and Damage
鬼灵影步 for the Condition Removal and Stun Break
鬼灵铠甲 for Protection and Stun Break
召唤血肉地虫 for mobility
召唤影魔 for Life Force generation
腐蚀毒云 for Projectile Destruction.
"严寒刺骨！" can be replaced when needed:
恐惧 is one of the best sources of Fury and Quickness. Always slot it when you're alone and don't have Jade Protocols.
暗影疾速 when you need more mobility.
现世妄执 when you need more survivability at a significant damage loss.
破甲冰冻 offers fast Vulnerability due to not having an Internal Cooldown. It synergises well with 
冰冻新星 and should be used when fighting groups of enemies.
Feel free to run the same equipment as the raid build for Power Reaper. The equipment listed here is easier to obtain due to not requiring 
+5精准痛苦灌注.
Staff provides decent AoE tagging. Slot in a 
超级嗜血法印 to further leverage this.
Sword can be used in your main hand for Life Force, Boon Removal and mobility.
Focus or Warhorn can be taken instead of off hand Sword if you do not have access to Secrets of the Obscure (SotO).
- Focus can be used for Boon Removal, Life Steal and Life Force.
- Warhorn can be used for Life Steal, Defiance Break and Swiftness.
海盗女王古物 can be replaced when needed:
Janthir Wilds Relics:
克达之爪古物 for 7% Damage after using Defiance Break.
悲伤古物 turns your elite skill into a powerful panic button.
河流古物 grants you Alacrity and Regeneration when you Dodge.
Secrets of the Obscure Relics:
萨奇洛斯古物 converts Critical Strikes into Healing.
寻路者古物 provides increased Movement Speed and Superspeed when entering combat.
巫师塔古物 grants your elite skill an additional Pull and Reflect.
午夜国王古物 to share Fury and Might frequently with nearby allies.
Core Game Relics:
烟花古物 for 7% Damage after using high Cooldown skills.
雄鹰古物 flat 10% Damage to enemies under 50% Health.
潜行者古物 is an easy to maintain Damage buff.
骁骑兵古物 grants Condition Removal when you use a shout.
流水古物 grants Condition Removal when you use your Heal skill.
骑兵古物 grants you Aegis, Quickness, Swiftness, Resistance and Might when you hit an enemy with your mount engage skill. (Hint: the Skyscale engage skill will leave a pulsing field that will give boons on every strike!).
Rotation & Extras
Key Concepts
A large chunk of your Damage comes from 
夺魂之幕 due its skills and passive bonuses:
Your Auto Attacks in 夺魂之幕 should not be underestimated for their Damage. They also have a few perks:
Gain 
灵魂倒钩 by using 夺魂之幕 or 
解除夺魂之幕. This trait is an easy one to maintain and well worth the keeping in mind.
A good defense is a good offense - avoid taking Damage while in 夺魂之幕 as the majority of your Damage comes from there. Replenish Life Force with weapon skills.
Dealing Damage
Cast your AoE skills immediately before entering 夺魂之幕 and using 
灵魂漩涡 to deal quick bursts of Damage. These are your big AoE skills:
Some useful things to know about Greatsword:
掘墓剑斩 will have its Cooldown reset if you hit a foe with <50% health.
黑暗抓攫 can be used to Pull groups of mobs together.
Some useful things to know about your Dagger:
黑暗契约 to Immobilize and Remove Boons from a target
生命虹吸 deals Damage over time and heals. Use it just before you go into 夺魂之幕.
Use your Sword skills in the following order to take advantage of how they work:
饥饿漩涡 and 
狼吞虎咽 will Life Steal and inflict Vulnerability, followed up with more Vulnerability and Chilled.
吞噬面容 and 
消食殆尽 will grant Life Force and inflict Fear, followed up with Weakness and Might.
Your Auto Attacks in 夺魂之幕 are reliable sources of Damage and shouldn't be underestimated.
Cast "严寒刺骨！" to grant yourself Quickness, Might, Fury and Stability.

Defense
A good offense is a good defense - deal Damage to nearby enemies while not in 夺魂之幕 to heal with 
灵魂吞噬.
Use 
惊惧魔甲 to gain Damage Reduction whilst in 夺魂之幕. Using 
惊惧释放 ends the Damage Reduction effect early and inflicts Fear.
Use "灵魂夺取！" or 
死亡漩涡 in groups to generate large amounts of Life Force quickly.
Use 死亡冲刺 for mobility only. It's not worth using as a Damage skill.
"弱者退散！" acts as a Stun Break on a short Cooldown.
