Key Concepts

Longbow Galeshot is a high damage and high range spec. This build will rely on the new 召唤旋风之弓 图标召唤旋风之弓 abilities and longbow to deal damage from maximum range.

It is easier than its counterpart Power Galeshot but will struggle into melee roamers.

Damage

The unique feature of this build is 召唤旋风之弓 图标召唤旋风之弓. Every skill it has offer high damage from range. It comes with a unique ressource system : Arrow which you generate 1 every 5 seconds. Each skill cost up to 3 Arrows and generate 1 or 2 Wind Force. Once at 5 Wind Force stacks your autoattack turns into 鹰眼射击 图标鹰眼射击, your highest damage ability on this set.

For damage inside of 召唤旋风之弓 图标召唤旋风之弓 we will focus on some simple abilities.

  • 箭雨倾泻 图标箭雨倾泻 sends 3 quick arrows and generates 1 Wind Force.
  • 连续射击 图标连续射击 a simple AoE which generates 2 Wind Force. It has 2 charges so if used twice in addition of 箭雨倾泻 图标箭雨倾泻 it will grant you 鹰眼射击 图标鹰眼射击.
  • Another really strong ability is 超声箭矢 图标超声箭矢. It Pierces, is AoE, Daze and generates 2 Wind Force. The major downside of this ability is its 1 second cast time as it locks you in place.

Longbow gives us access to even more ranged damage. It is a burst weapon, relying on the 2 skill combo 近身平射 图标近身平射高速连射 图标高速连射. The Quickness from 近身平射 图标近身平射 is what makes it usable. If using 高速连射 图标高速连射 alone be ready to cancel it in case you get jumped on or if they use lign of sight to avoid the damage.

万箭齐发 图标万箭齐发 is a really strong AoE but will lock you in place and has a long cast time. Make sure you are in a safe spot when using it and try to use it on nodes or downs to force enemies to react.

Once on Sword we will try to hit 2 key abilities. Both are leaps and really high damage which is perfect for the playstyle we're going for.

You should use 毒蛇奇袭 图标毒蛇奇袭 first and followup with 猛扑 图标猛扑 for extra damage. 猎手召唤 图标猎手召唤 is better to use first or right before swapping to Longbow.

Use 完美风暴 图标完美风暴 on blocking enemies to interrupt their blocks.

Defense

Stealth is a great way to stay alive and find a good position in a fight. Your ways to get it are 猎手暗箭 图标猎手暗箭 and using your leap finishers from Sword or 荒野召唤 图标荒野召唤 inside of 障目烟云 图标障目烟云.

疾驰风裔 图标疾驰风裔, 毒蛇奇袭 图标毒蛇奇袭 and 旋风行动 图标旋风行动 all provide Evade on top of their mobility. 旋风行动 图标旋风行动 is also a Stun Break and applies Superspeed.

Your other Stun Break is "快保护我!" 图标"快保护我!" and will give you Barrier.

Your heal, 和煦微风 图标和煦微风, will recharge 1 Arrow and give you Superspeed on top of its Heal.

Lastly 磐石纹章 图标磐石纹章 is an invuln you can use while CCed but it will only prevent strike damage.
