The Kite Deadeye build is a specialized Power DPS setup designed for the Qadim the Peerless encounter in Raid Wing 7, The Key of Ahdashim. This build excels in durability, high damage output, and effective kiting, making it ideal for handling mechanics in Wing 7.

With its ability to provide self-boons and constantly strip boons during the last phase of the fight, it offers both utility and survivability. However, it requires precise execution due to its complex rotation and reliance on enemy conditions. Perfect for players seeking a challenging yet rewarding role in raids!

Traits & Skills

Traits

Skills

萨奇洛斯古物 图标萨奇洛斯古物 provides sufficient healing to keep you topped off throughout the fight. It also lets you be more flexible with your utility skill usage during inconsistent phase times and the chaotic 20% phase.

You can alternatively use 神枪手古物 图标神枪手古物 and swap 越战越勇 图标越战越勇 in the Critical Strikes Trait Line to 重生精准 图标重生精准. This provides a bit more healing and more damage (around 2%) when performing a good rotation, but you'll need to mind the Relic's uptime by keeping 怜悯 图标怜悯 and 暗影融合 图标暗影融合 spread out.

Rotation & Extras

Kiter Role

  • Use Spear's 杂念投掷 图标杂念投掷 to break your Pylon's defiance bar at the start of each phase.
  • Use 萨奇洛斯古物 图标萨奇洛斯古物 and Rifle's long-ranged damage to keep yourself alive.
  • Use 暗影疾步 图标暗影疾步 to catch the Orb launched by Qadim, then return to your pylon via 暗影回归 图标暗影回归.
  • At 40%/30%, if your pylon is destroyed, move to another pylon and keep using Rifle. You and the resident kiter will each apply a stack of Erratic Energy, increasing all damage deal to Qadim.
  • Below 20%, stack with the group and make regular use of Spear's 碎裂突袭 图标碎裂突袭 to strip boons if necessary.

It is strongly advised that you disable Auto Cast on skill 1 for both weapons, by holding CTRL and Right Clicking the skills. If that setting remains enabled, then any skill can interrupt your Stealth Attack. If you want to queue into your next skill while the Stealth Attack is channeling, then Auto Cast must be disabled!

Rotation

七级邪恶 图标七级邪恶 is the centerpiece of this build. You will want to make sure you critically strike with at least 3 Initiative skills before executing a Stealth Attack, generally by following a pattern:

Opener

Help CC your Pylon:

  1. 神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记 → Stolen Skill
  2. Either:

You do not want to over-commit Initiative to breaking the bar if your allies will break it before you trigger 七级邪恶 图标七级邪恶. If necessary, tell them to pitch in only after you've removed half the Defiance Bar.

  1. Weapon Swap to Rifle
  2. 屈膝 图标屈膝三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x2
  3. Dodge through the shockwave → 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发
  4. 暗影融合 图标暗影融合恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判刺客纹章 图标刺客纹章

Rifle Loop

Don't activate 怜悯 图标怜悯 until the preceding 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 has struck the boss.

  1. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → Stolen Skill → 恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  2. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 until out of Initiative
  3. 怜悯 图标怜悯神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记
  4. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → 遁入暗影 图标遁入暗影恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  5. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → 暗影融合 图标暗影融合恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判 (+刺客纹章 图标刺客纹章 during this cast)
  6. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → Stolen Skill → 恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  7. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 until out of Initiative

If the boss has about 5% left until phase ends (80%/60%/40%), continue with the following:

  1. 怜悯 图标怜悯神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记
  2. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → Stolen Skill → 恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  3. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 until the phase ends

Otherwise:

  1. 致命瞄准 图标致命瞄准 and 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 until 神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记 comes off Cooldown
  2. 神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记致命瞄准 图标致命瞄准 → Stolen Skill → 恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  3. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发怜悯 图标怜悯神枪手标记 图标神枪手标记
  4. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 x3 → Stolen Skill → 恶意死亡审判 图标恶意死亡审判
  5. 三弹爆发 图标三弹爆发 until the phase ends

When Qadim the Peerless lifts you up into the air as a fireball, swap to your Spear or cast 自由行动 图标自由行动 to hover at full speed.

20% Phase Spear Usage

Once all Pylons are destroyed, you become a regular DPS player stacking with the group. You can still provide some key utility using your Spear.

If Anomalies need killing, you can help break their Defiance Bar with 杂念投掷 图标杂念投掷. Continue your Spear combos against the Anomaly until it dies, if it's not standing in lava.

If you get the expanding-AoE lightning mechanic, use 暗影疾步 图标暗影疾步/暗影回归 图标暗影回归 to quickly take it away from group.

Qadim the Peerless will regularly gain boons during this phase, including Quickness and Resolution (the latter will debuff any Condition Damage builds in your squad). You can strip these boons using 碎裂突袭 图标碎裂突袭.

Spear skills 2 and 3 are each a sequence of 3 skills: Lead Attack → Follow Up → Finisher. Using a skill from either sequence will progress both sequences.

You have a massive amount of Initiative to work with between 恶意苍白突袭 图标恶意苍白突袭, 怜悯 图标怜悯, and 七级邪恶 图标七级邪恶. Flow through your combos quickly until Qadim the Boonless is dead.
