The guide on this page teaches how to use both featured weapon sets in tandem. Refer to the Equipment Notes section to learn how to play either weapon as a standalone set for a modest average DPS loss of around 6%.
-
Always carry
斯克鼠乱斗 as your Elite Skill, as a large amount of your damage depends on it. -
You can replace
卡纳克硬币投掷 for any other relevant utility, such as 
暗影疾步 or 
准备暗影传送门. -
镰爪毒液 is your strongest self-heal; it also provides substantial subgroup healing. -
If you don't have the 5
+5精准痛苦灌注s, you can reach 100% Critical Chance by using this alternate gear set, at the cost of a single point of Power: -
1 Assassin's Amulet.
-
Full Berserker's for the rest of the gear.

Rotation & Extras
Opener
Pre-cast a Spear combo to prime a 
杂念投掷 before the boss is vulnerable when possible. Otherwise, skip step 2.
Spear Rotation Concept
Use the following Spear sequences as your main damage source:
Always start on this sequence whenever you engage an enemy or after a Stealth Attack:
Then, continue casting the following sequence as much as possible:
When running low on Initiative do a Stealth Attack sequence instead to refill your Initiative:
Whenever you roll a 
金属军团吉他, you will execute a Guitar Loop.
石峰会加农炮 should be used off-Cooldown for damage.
Use stolen Artifacts between your Spear skills for damage and Initiative while following the Artifact Priority Guide below.
Artifact Priority List
Prioritize your Artifacts in the following order:
-
召唤氪族炮台
塑形者冲刺弹 OR 金属军团吉他 (refer to the Guitar Loop below)
雾灼迫击炮 OR (spend the decoy buff on 
刺客纹章)-
查克虫护盾
When possible, prioritize having different Artifact buffs active, rather than using the same artifact many times in a row!
Execute the following Loop only when you have a 金属军团吉他 available.
Guitar Loop
- Weapon Swap
-
金属军团吉他
剧毒连掷 → 
灵巧齐掷 → 
预谋突袭- 剧毒连掷 → 灵巧齐掷 → 预谋突袭
- 剧毒连掷 → 灵巧齐掷 → 预谋突袭
- Auto Attack until your Weapon Swap is less than a second away from it's Cooldown.
-
预谋突袭
- Weapon Swap
If your Weapon Swap is already available when you finish step 5, skip steps 6 and 7.
You can use one 剧毒连掷 in Step 6 only if you have excess Initiative.
Rotation Notes
- Use
斯克鼠横扫 off-Cooldown to gain Artifacts and refresh your 
斗志高涨 stacks. - Use 斯克鼠乱斗, your Elite Skill, to generate more Artifacts.
- Use 卡纳克硬币投掷 off-Cooldown for Initiative. Be careful to use them when they are fully off-Cooldown, as the Backfire for this skill is extremely punishing.
- When you use 斯克鼠乱斗 or 斯克鼠横扫 to generate more Artifacts, try to not overwrite any current Artifacts.
- Purposefully trigger the backfire on 石峰会加农炮 for extra damage. It won't hurt much, and the lifeteal from
吸血劈砍 will keep you topped off. - Spear combo sequences only resets after several seconds if left incomplete, letting you input a skill or two on demand without interrupting your combo.
- While 斯克鼠乱斗 is not active, if you have an active buff from one of your priority Artifacts, and have another one of the same Artifact, try to space out its usage to avoid overwriting the buff.
