Key Concepts

D/P Daredevil is amazing at creating 2v1s to help your duelists but it is also able to heavily pressure single targets in bigger fights, especially supports.

It heavily relies on Stealth for survivability and damage because of 背刺 图标背刺.

Using 钻心 图标钻心 inside of 火药喷射 图标火药喷射 is your main way to Stealth.

Damage

Your main way to deal damage is 背刺 图标背刺 which you get access to while Stealthed. Use 顺手牵羊 图标顺手牵羊 with it to reach your target.

Your Dagger/Pistol set brings ways to finish target after hitting 背刺 图标背刺.

  • 钻心 图标钻心 a small leap with Damage scaling off of how low your target is. Never use it unless they're below 50% health.
  • 暗影投射 图标暗影投射 is a ranged ability which will teleport you to the target on hit. It additionally Blinds and deal high Damage.
  • 爆头射击 图标爆头射击 is a very quick ranged Daze. It should only be used to interrupt your target healing skill or movement abilities.
  • 火药喷射 图标火药喷射 is usually only used for Stealth. You can use it on a Downed ally to Revive them.

Short Bow brings a lot of AoE Damage.

  • 集束炸弹 图标集束炸弹 brings pure AoE Damage, you can use it again, 引爆集束炸弹 图标引爆集束炸弹, during it's travel time to blow it and deal the damage at another point than where you aimed.
  • 窒息瓦斯 图标窒息瓦斯 is an AoE Unblockable Daze, best used on Downed enemies.

Defense

暗影疾步 图标暗影疾步 is one of the very best defensive utility in the game. It will allow you to teleport over large distances while being a Stun Break. It even gives you a second activation which will port you back the same distance, Stun Break and cleanse 3 conditions.

Your heal 紧急撤离 图标紧急撤离 will cleanse conditions and offer a dodge backward. It can be used for mobility by doing a quick turn with about face. Same goes for 先攻翻滚 图标先攻翻滚 except instead of heal and cleanses it will give you back some Initiative.

致盲药粉 图标致盲药粉 provides another Stun Break and Stealth.

Class Specific

As Thief you can be expected to roam a lot and decap enemy nodes. Use 渗透暗箭 图标渗透暗箭 and 神行无阻 图标神行无阻 to move around out of combat and re-engage with 顺手牵羊 图标顺手牵羊.
