使用说明 Usage

Quickness

You apply Quickness through the trait 。 This pulses healing and Quickness whenever you are using upkeep energy of six or above. Fortunately, all of your non- legends have a skill that uses exactly six. Thus while in these legends you want to maintain the skill in question for almost the entire time. Glint is a little trickier as all the skills use upkeep, but 和 combined are six energy, so these two are maintained together.

Swiftness

By default, the rotations below only generate ~35% Swiftness uptime. To provide more, you need to skip the first use of and maintain while on (you should still use before swapping legend)。 You may need to toggle off early to ensure you have enough energy for weapon skills.

Alternatively, as Swiftness is not stripped at the start of encounters, you can make sure to channel before the fight starts. If you manage to start with 60s, you should be able to maintain it for a further two minutes without compromising your damage, or even longer if there are split phases in which to refresh it.
