Combo Fields

Main article: Guide:What are Combo Fields

A lot of new thieves are unaware how potent their Combo Blast potential is.

is a blast finisher and is a leap finisher. Both of them can be used inside to gain Stealth。 Cluster Bomb inside a smoke field will provide nearby allies with Stealth, the fastest and most reliable way to do it is to click the skill icon on the UI, which fires the bomb directly at your feet completely eliminating all travel time.

By using this combo, you can stealth up to five people, including yourself. This stealth has a maximum duration, so it's a good idea to stack it and then move, finding a spot to stack again before the existing stealth runs off.

In a good party, the thief will only need to use a few blasts; the party will contribute some of their own. Five blasts is sufficient for max stealth, so a common tactic is to use with a few blasts from the thief and a few blasts from the party to very rapidly stealth before moving to a new area and repeating the process. Note that you must have Autotarget turned off in the settings to do this efficiently.
