Rotation Notes

  • Cast Venoms after the boon strip at the start of combat, and never cast them without allies nearby (except when practicing).
  • Try not to delay 进入暗影帷幕 图标进入暗影帷幕 unless your utility skills are available to be cast immediately.
  • 虹吸 图标虹吸, 进入暗影帷幕 图标进入暗影帷幕, and 离开暗影帷幕 图标离开暗影帷幕 can interrupt other skill casts.
  • You can select a Shrouded Ally before the fight by casting 虹吸 图标虹吸 on an ally. This ally will receive the beneficial effects of Shadow Shroud even while away from the group (up to 1200 Range). Otherwise, only cast 虹吸 图标虹吸 on enemies.
  • Spear combo sequences only resets after several seconds if left incomplete, letting you input a skill or two on demand without interrupting your combo.
  • Your Spear inputs can be queued in two ways: either continuously pressing the input, or holding down the next input for combo sequences. Queuing inputs is key to performing well on this build as it is fast paced and there is very little downtime, so experiment with what works best for you.
