Guide

Build Explaination

Basics of this build is introduced on the YouTube video. This has similar structure, but the Siphoning skill line is swapped to Animal companions for bit more sustain and even more damage potential.

Rotation is fairly simple:

  • You can keep your distance and just spam cliffracer until your target is ready for execute burst
    • First you hit the spectral bow and then finish things off with Impale
  • If you need to be closer, you can use fear before launching a devastating combo of ultimate, spectral bow and execute
