Rotation & Extras

For the opener only, it's recommended to disable Auto Cast on 旋转利斧 图标旋转利斧 using Ctrl + Right Mouse Button. If you don't, using 预谋突袭 图标预谋突袭 puts 灵巧齐掷 图标灵巧齐掷 on an anomalous 1-second Cooldown, ruining the skill sequence.

Opener

(Optional) Start on an Axe/Pistol set and spam 旋转利斧 图标旋转利斧 before combat to create 6 Spinning Axes. Otherwise, skip Steps 3 and 5.

Do not queue 预谋突袭 图标预谋突袭灵巧齐掷 图标灵巧齐掷, or you will interrupt the former.

  1. 遁入暗影 图标遁入暗影
  2. 同仇敌忾 图标同仇敌忾

Rotation Concept

Cast the following options for damage inside the buff window of 弹跳闪避 图标弹跳闪避 with the following priority:

  1. 铁拳乱舞 图标铁拳乱舞
  2. 铁掌攻心 图标铁掌攻心
  3. 阻碍匕首 图标阻碍匕首
  4. 虚弱回旋 图标虚弱回旋 (you can add a second one if Initiative allows)
  5. Auto Attack Chain

Use 铁拳乱舞 图标铁拳乱舞 and 阻碍匕首 图标阻碍匕首 off Cooldown for damage and to restore Endurance. Use this Endurance offenseively to land 弹跳 图标弹跳 on enemies, and maintain the 弹跳闪避 图标弹跳闪避 buff on yourself.

In general, try to keep your Initiative and your Endurance below 100%. On Staff, spend your Initiative only on 虚弱回旋 图标虚弱回旋.

Use 顺手牵羊 图标顺手牵羊 as needed to restore a full segment of Endurance.
