Key Concepts
Generate Alacrity, Might, and Fury by Dodging to gain Mirage Cloak and trigger the Staff ambush 
混沌漩涡. Do this frequently to maintain these boons.
Use Chaos Aura to maximize your personal Damage from 
幻象防护.
This build benefits greatly from both Vigor and Regeneration, so make sure both are always active.
This build relies heavily on mastering the timing of your Clones casting 混沌漩涡. They do not have Quickness!
Spacing out your Mirage Cloak sources is the toughest part of getting started, both for boon purposes and getting the most out of 
无限视界. Too soon and you can cancel 混沌漩涡, either for you or your Clones. Too far apart and you will drop Alacrity for your subgroup. Start by aiming for a cast about every 3 seconds and adjust as you needed. Don't forget to practice!
Step One
Start each phase with 3 
幻影术士 → 2 
相位撤退 to generate Clones and then do the following:
- Dodge to trigger 混沌漩涡 frequently. Never let your Endurance fill up.
- Weapon Swap off Cooldown to trigger
超级能量法印 for more Endurance to Dodge more. - Use
水晶沙尘 off Cooldown and collect the 
幻象之镜, triggering 混沌漩涡.
Notes
Every time you gain Mirage Cloak your next auto-atack will be replaced with 混沌漩涡 generating Alacrity along with other boons. Mirage Cloak is gained by:
Each cast of 混沌漩涡 will generate about 4.5 seconds of Alacrity thanks to 
混沌执念. Every 20 seconds you will need to activate 混沌漩涡 at least five times:
- With Vigor you will generate enough Endurance to Dodge 3 times.
- Using Weapon Swap will give you enough Endurance to Dodge 2 times.
- Collecting the 幻象之镜 created by 水晶沙尘 will provide at least one 混沌漩涡.
In total, you should be generating at least 27 seconds of Alacrity every 20 seconds. This will leave you with ample margin for error such a when there is a brief delay in a Weapon Swap, less than 100% uptime on Vigor or Regeneration, or if members of your subgroup are off stack for mechanics.
If you find you are temporarily lacking in Vigor or Regeneration you can trait swap to help top off the respective boon. In both cases, swap back as soon as possible:
Step Two
When 3 幻影术士 is available, do the following combo:
If F2 
挫败之吼 is on Cooldown use F1 
心灵粉碎 instead.
Additionally, use 
伪装绿洲 off Cooldown. Collect the 幻象之镜 created when the skill finishes casting for another source of Mirage Cloak.
Notes
Remember that Mirage Cloak is generated by Dodge or collecting a 幻象之镜.
幻影术士 will generate Phantasms that will cast Mage Strike. This skill has a 2.5 second cast time at which point the Phantasms turn into Clones. Make sure your old Clones are shattered before that happens. Along with 相位撤退 this will instantly put you back at three Clones. This is important for maximizing the damage from 无限视界.
Practice the timing and make sure that your Clones finish casting 混沌漩涡 before shattering them. They do not have Quickness so will need an extra beat.
Shatter skills refresh 
沙漠谜题 which further enchances Ambushes. 挫败之吼 will also give you Chaos Aura thanks to 幻象防护 which will increase your Condition Damage.
Step Three
Start practicing the opener. The following is a simplified opener that builds on Step Two above that you can use as a stepping stone to the full build:
3幻影术士 → 2相位撤退 → Dodge6伪装绿洲 → 水晶沙尘- Collect one 幻象之镜, then the other when your Clones finish casting 混沌漩涡
3幻影术士 → Dodge → F2挫败之吼 → 2相位撤退
Notes
A strong opener is important as the build has a long ramp time. This opener has a few simplifications and therefore drawbacks from the Full Build opener. The full build has:
- An initial
远行 into the field created by 伪装绿洲, activate Chaos Aura quicker. - Tighter attention to Clones casting times will speed up the opener.
- An initial Weapon Swap. This helps to start the Cooldown to the next Weapon Swap. Weapon Swap can cancel your 混沌漩涡 so be mindful you finish your cast when you add this to your opener.
- An extra 心灵粉碎 is used during the shatter combo. Removing this is a slight damage loss.
Step Four
Finally, Increase your Chaos Aura uptime by adding in the following:
Your two available Leap Finishers are 0 远行 and 2 相位撤退.
Notes
Chaos Aura is important as it triggers 幻象防护 to give you more Condition Damage.
Thanks to 
疯狂法则, both 
混乱风暴 and 伪装绿洲 create Ethereal Combo Fields. Using a Leap Finisher in a Ethereal Combo Field generates Chaos Aura.
Since 相位撤退 is used during the shatter combo and has significant forced movement, 远行 should be your go to Leap Finisher in the beginning. As your mastery increases you will start to find opportunies where you can use 相位撤退 efficiently and not put yourself in danger.
You can also use a Leap Finisher in any other Ethereal Combo Fields like those from Chronomancer Wells or 
斥力穹窿 for even more Chaos Aura.
You should now be ready for the Full Build. Alternatively, consider amping up your damage output by swapping to the Staff / Axe & Torch build. The loop is significantly more structured and can boost overall damage dramatically.
