使用说明 Usage

Simpler Rotations

Mechanist's signets are very strong, which allows them to replace / 和 if you use the trait. This also allows you to use without losing DPS.

See the Condi Boon Support page for this rotation, and use off cooldown - this should prevent you needing to use outside of the opener.

Jade Dynamo rotation

The Jade Dynamo rotation (using three kits) is very complicated and essentially boils down to keeping track of priority cooldown skills and switching into kits as necessary to maximise their uses. Downtime between kit swaps are filled with 手枪 autos.

To make this manageable, each "kit" you swap to (for these purposes we consider Pistols to also be a kit) has a key skill that we ideally want to swap to and use every time it comes off cooldown, as well as some lower-priority skills that you use if they happen to be off cooldown when you swap. The skills you use in each kit are:

Pistol/Pistol
Key skills: &
Other skills:

Grenade Kit
Key skill:
Other skills: &

Bomb Kit
Key skill:
Other skill:

You may notice that the cooldowns of the key skills (before Alacrity) are 5, 8 and 12 seconds, which do not fit together very neatly. The full rotation then is not going to look very neat, but it can be broken down into a general loop with three sections:

Section 1

Cycle through each kit in turn, using all the skills named above in each. In general, the best order for kits will be

& ⇒ ⇒ ⇒

和 have the same cooldown, so if we make sure to cast last on 手枪 和 first in then we can know that we only need to go into immediately after using 。

After ，autoattack on 手枪 until just before then do:

⇒ ⇒

Section 2

Your key Pistol/Pistol should be coming off cooldown now so you can immediately go

& ⇒ ⇒ Pistol/Pistol

may not be available when you swap to ，so auto with until it's ready.

After autoattack on 手枪 until just before ，then:

⇒ ⇒ ⇒ Pistol/Pistol

Section 3

The final section is much like Section 2，but the cooldowns align slightly differently.

& ⇒ ⇒ Pistol/Pistol

This time, when is available do

⇒ ⇒ Pistol/Pistol

Autoattack on 手枪 until 和 are on a ~6 second cooldown then quickly swap into and use 。 Return to Pistol/Pistol after using and start again from Section 1 when 和 are off cooldown.

Winging It

If you find the structure above difficult to follow, you can use your 手枪 cooldowns to prompt you to swap kits:

• Every time you use ，go into
• has roughly half the cooldown of 和 ，so use it once immediately before or after using these 手枪 skills, then again when they are on a ~6 second cooldown.
• Focus on the key skills so as not to delay your rotation.
  • When swapping to kits to use key skills, have a look at the remaining cooldowns on the other skills. If they are ready, then swap back to the kit and use them when you would otherwise just be autoattacking on 手枪。
• 手枪 skills should take priority.

常规技巧 General Tips

• Make sure you're within 360 units of your mech before using F1-3 skills, or they will have a 50% longer cooldown thanks to 。
• Any of your other 手枪 skills will interrupt ，so it's best to use it last.
  • You can swap to during the cast without interrupting the skill.
• During the wind-up of ，it can be interrupted with 。 Either make sure not to press too soon, or use first.
• Press all your mech skills off cooldown - you can save ：CC if necessary.
• If using ，use it off cooldown. It is a very small DPS gain though, so hold on to it if there is any danger that the mech might die.
