使用说明 Usage

Simplified Rotation

As Greatsword is by far the strongest weapon, the full rotation can be simplified by camping it and also dropping a few of the less impactful skills:

Opener

1. - this triggers on each pulse, making the buff last for 12 seconds

Reaper's Shroud

is only a small DPS increase over shroud autos, so to prevent being locked into the animation it can just be skipped. The exact position of skills is not fixed, but the idea is to never drop the buff from 。 To enable this, you need to cast no more than three auto chains after ，and leave shroud immediately after. Aim to get 5-7 auto chains in (below 50% you may lack the life force to do 7)。

1. ⇒ ⇒ x4
2. - you can queue this during the cast of the previous skill to ensure no autoattacks sneak in
3. ⇒ ⇒ x3

巨剑

Cast 和 as soon as you 。 Otherwise complete auto chains and use whenever it is available - completing an auto chain refreshes its cooldown, and if your target it below 50% health, it has no cooldown at all and should be spammed.

When your shroud has a ~3s cooldown remaining, repeat the opener.

循环 Rotation

The logic behind this rotation is to maximise uptime by entering shroud as often as is possible, while trying to time ， 和 with so that their pulsing effects benefit from the extra ferocity from and extra critical damage from 。 Other damage skills such as are used to fill downtime.

The buff from is maintained for as long as possible by spacing out ， 和 during the shroud burst.

Opener

The opener is pretty flexible, but will determine which part of the loop to move on to next. In fractal CMs, it is useful to be prepared to vary the opener by when bosses open their defiance bars - if they open immediately (e.g. Skorvald or MAMA) then starting on 巨剑 means you can immediately use ，but if the defiance bar appears a bit later (e.g. Siax) you can start on 法杖 and spam marks before switching to 巨剑：CC into your burst.

1. - this triggers on each pulse, making the buff last for 12 seconds
4. Weapon Swap quickly to cancel the aftercast

Reaper's Shroud

Each time you enter you do the same rotation.

2. ⇒ ⇒ x2
4. - you can queue this during the cast of the previous skill to ensure no autoattacks sneak in
5. ⇒ ⇒
7. ⇒ ⇒ (optional)
8. - this skill deals extra damage when the target is below 50% and 25% health, so you can use the extra auto chain above if this would put your target below the threshold, or if it lines up with a break bar.

Staff-to-Greatsword

5. Weapon swap
8. ⇒ ⇒
15. Repeat Reaper's Shroud Rotation

Greatsword-to-Staff

3. ⇒ ⇒
6. Weapon swap
7. - the order of marks doesn't strictly matter, but if you drop Alacrity then Reaper's Mark might not be off cooldown in time when you exit Reaper's Shroud. Thus we use it early just in case.
14. Repeat Reaper's Shroud Rotation

The full loop cycles between Reaper's Shroud ⇒ Staff-to-Greatsword ⇒ Reaper's Shroud ⇒ Greatsword-to-Staff ⇒ Repeat

Rotation Explanation

Above 50% health, the rotation boils down to the following:

• Every time you swap to 巨剑 (or exit shroud to it), use followed by 。
• A full auto chain resets ，so after one chain use it again then use your burst skills.
• Every time you swap to 法杖 (or exit shroud to it) you spam all your marks and either weapon swap or enter shroud.
• Always whirl inside the boss so you hit with every whirl finisher from 。

Below 50% Health

When the boss is below 50% health, your rotation changes due to having no cooldown. Follow the rotation as above, but replace the 巨剑 auto chain with a single 。

• Your life force generation is lower below 50% health, as you no longer use 巨剑 autos.

Notes

• Use off cooldown.
• Never interrupt your autoattack chain.
• In real fights, you won't always be able to make full use of because taking damage in Shroud will reduce your remaining life force. Anticipate this and break your rotation if needed so that you can build up enough life force to resume the normal rotation.
• Whenever you you can use it to cancel the animation of the last autoattack for a slight DPS increase.
• If possible, bind a key to Stow Weapon and use it to cancel the animation of immediately after the damage number appears. This shaves 200-300 ms off the activation time, which translates to a big DPS increase when the boss is under 50%. You can do the same by quickly queuing an autoattack and then cancelling it with 。 Both these methods take practise, so feel free to skip if you find yourself struggling.
• is a DPS loss if the aftercast is not cancelled. You can cancel the aftercast by entering or weapon swapping. Feel free to save this skill for CC or the pull.
• The casts of 和 are easy to interrupt by entering ，so don't be too quick with it.
• In fights with adds or trash mobs, you can reset 's cooldown by hitting adds under 50% health. Take advantage of this to push out more casts while the boss is over 50% health.
• On some bosses, you can prestack marks with a staff for slightly better burst damage when the fight begins. You can do this on Siax, Skorvald, Viirastra/Artsariiv, Mursaat Overseer, Slothasor, Samarog, Gorseval, Vale Guardian, and Keep Construct.
• You can't get healed while in 。 If needed, delay your shroud by a little bit if you know that you're going to be healed soon.

CC

Miscellaneous

• Use 或 ：boonstrip.
• Since has no cast time, you can weave it in during your shroud rotation for stability and damage reduction. The damage reduction will also reduce the loss of life force.
• You can jump as you cast ，then ：a long jump.
