使用说明 Usage

Beginner Rotation

The easiest way to play Condi Willbender is to swap the 利剑：an 利斧 and camp it unless you need to switch to Sceptre：ranged damage. This should give you an idea of how Willbender feels to play before moving on to the full rotation.

Opener

You can precast 和 to start with stacks of ，but skip this if you think you will need them for defence.

2. Active ，but don't throw yet
5. x2

For the rest of rotation, use the skills you used in the opener on cooldown, with being the highest priority, followed by 。

Pistol Rotation

• Both your autoattacks are very weak, but the combination of 和 allow us to limit the time we need to spend using them.
• triggers multiple whirl finishers, so always cast it after (which provides a fire field), at a time where there are none of your light fields.
• Where it lists Virtue in the rotation below, use either 或 ( is the higher priority if it is at two charges) for extra damage from virtue triggers. If you wish to keep these for utility, just ignore these steps and replace with autoattacks if necessary.

Opener

Start on Sceptre/Pistol。 You can precast one or two charges of if you like, to start with 和 。

1. - allow to charge fully, and detonate immediately as is passes through your target.
3. - get this out early so combos interact with it rather than a light field
5. Weapon Swap

First Pistol Loop

If you're fast enough, won't be off cooldown by the time you swap back to sceptre, so the first loop is a bit longer to allow things to line up:

2. 和 during the cast to start the cooldown
5. Virtue 和 during the cast
9. Autoattack until Rushing Justice is available
10. 和 during the cast
13. Weapon Swap

Sceptre Loop

3. Virtue
5. - allow to charge fully, and detonate immediately as is passes through your target.
6. Autoattack until Rushing Justice is available
11. Weapon Swap

Pistol loop

2. 和 during the cast to start the cooldown
4. Virtue
6. ⇒
10. Weapon Swap
11. Return to start of Sceptre loop

Sword Rotation

Opener

You can precast 和 to start with stacks of ，but skip this if you think you will need them for defence. Start on 利剑。

2. Active ，but don't throw yet
4. - be careful not to interrupt the cast of ！
5. Weapon Swap
8. x2
10. until is off cooldown
13. →
14. 和 → until Weapon Swap is available
15. Weapon Swap

After this, the rotation is mostly priority based, but there are a few ways to structure each section:

Sword Loop

The basic sword loop opens with:

3. Follow priority list (below) until is available
5. Weapon Swap

Alternate Sword Loop

You can instead structure the sword loop as follows:

3. Follow priority list until is available
5. Follow priority list until is available
8. Weapon Swap

This loop is slightly lower damage in general, but if used for the first two loops it causes cooldowns to line up slightly better, resulting in slightly higher DPS. Just following the basic sword loop is completely fine though.

Scepter Loop

The scepter loop is very simple:

2. Follow priority list until Weapon Swap is available
3. Weapon Swap

Priority List

3. Skills specified in weapon loops above
4. - should be activated as soon as it is available as this starts the cooldown, you then have three seconds to throw so it can be delayed but don't miss the window
5. - This is a 4x whirl finisher, so it can be delayed up to ~three seconds if it will guarantee to combo with
6. ， 和 - when not specified in the weapon loops above, it is important to use these skills but as long as they don't delay your Weapon Swaps it isn't too important when
7. - This is higher priority than autoattacks, but as it has a long cast time it is important not to have to delay more important skills too much, and the burning is only applied at the end of the skill

13. until is available
14. ，but don't throw yet
15. until gains a second charge

常规技巧 General Tips

• On 巨剑，both 和 gain extra damage if used inside an enemy's hitbox.

Sword or Greatsword?

Both rotations have very similar benchmarks, so feel free to play whichever you enjoy most. There are a few elements to consider in terms of usability though:

• The greatsword rotation is much more structured, which may make it easier to learn.
• On the other hand, as you are locked out of torch when using 巨剑，it is much easier to miss uses of if you are disrupted or slow.
• Both weapons have a mobility skill, but the teleport from is more versatile and can be used for a variety of skips in fractals.
• offer projectile destruction, but it can be difficult to use it effectively without sacrificing DPS.
• greatly rewards standing inside the hitbox, which means 巨剑 is less effective on bosses where this is difficult or dangerous.
• 和 means that 巨剑 has slightly more available CC than 利剑。
