Trickery

When fighting large groups of trash mobs that die before you can even build 7 malice, you should replace Deadly Arts with Trickery and ：。

You gain lots of boons when using Deadeye's Mark, and it refreshes after killing the trash mob so you can use it again, ensuring a high uptime of these boons. Obviously, triggering Maleficent Seven is better than this, so only use this playstyle when enemies die so quickly that you cannot reach 7 Malice.

使用说明 Usage

General

This build focuses on marking your target with to build 7 Malice and assassinate them with 或 。 Every attack that you make against a Marked target generates 1 Malice, and 1 additional Malice if the attack is a critical strike, so this build really wants to have 100% critical chance. Thankfully, 和 help with that. Marking the target is extremely important, not only to start generating Malice with your attacks, but also because you deal increased damage to them, and take less damage from them, thanks to 。 Killing the target refreshes the cooldown of Deadeye's Mark thanks to 。

Reaching 7 Malice provides a plethora of boons through ，most notably Might 和 Fury。 This synergyses amazingly well with 。 You also apply a few conditions on your enemy through ，，， 和 ，which synergyses with 。 This trait becomes even better when playing in groups, as nearby players will be applying more conditions to the enemy.

This build makes frequent use of Stealth，for short durations, to deal damage with the very strong stealth attacks 或 。 Your sources of stealth range from stolen skills used above 5 Malice, to your utility skills and your weapon skill 。 If you're going to focus extensively on using the rifle weapon, consider using the trait and the elite skill ：more stealth.

Sources of stealth

Mastery of this build requires management of your sources of Stealth，which are the only way to fire your Stealth Attack to reset your initiative. While dagger/dagger has that covered with ，rifle will require you to use other sources of Stealth.

• Stolen skill - casting your stolen skill while at 5 Malice or above will stealth you for 3 seconds. As we're using ，try to use it only at 7 Malice. In long fights, make sure to use the stolen skill before Deadeye's Mark becomes available again, as stolen skills do not stack.
• provides 3 seconds of stealth. Low priority as you might need to use this for CC. Requires valid path to target to cast. Note that this will launch your target away, so when using dagger/dagger make sure to run behind them before using 。
• should be considered if you're going to focus on the rifle weapon. With this trait, dodging while wielding a rifle stealths you for 3 seconds. As it has no cooldown, this is only limited by your endurance, and this build has permanent Vigor。 Nevertheless, remember to save at least one bar of endurance to dodge incoming attacks.
• should be considered if you're going to focus on the rifle weapon. As it has 2 charges, this is the first stealth skill you want to use. The first charge will recharge as you still have access to a second charge should you need it.

Notes

• inflicts Revealed when cast, so it will always make use of 。
• Try to stay above 90% health to benefit from ， (75%)和 。
• When fighting bosses in a group, try to attack from behind to benefit from 。
• If using Action Camera, they keybind "Look Behind" can be used while casting to quickly and seamlessly jump forward.
  • if you don't use action camera, you will have to stop running, turn your character, cast the skill, turn the character again, and resume running. The keybind "About Face" can help with that.
• Use to destroy dangerous projectile attacks like the volley of arrows from the Tengu Hero Point in Auric Basin.
• deals damage before teleporting. If you are in Stealth，it will reveal you.
• 和 will only deal their bonus damage from Malice against the Marked target. Marking target A and building 7 Malice but then using the Stealth Attack on target B will not consume Malice nor deal bonus damage.
• lasts 30 seconds, but you are never letting it run out as casting this gives you access to a stolen skill which are a necessary source of stealth.
• can be used as an emergency evade.
• bounces between enemies. When fighting groups of enemies, be careful not to Stealth too soon after casting it, or the dagger will bounce and reveal you before you can use the Stealth Attack.
• is a leap finisher. If you leap through a smoke field, you will gain 3 seconds of Stealth。 If it strikes anything, you will be Revealed，which will ruin your rotation. The pistol/pistol thief from can create a smoke field, so watch out for that.

Defense

This build severely lacks defense, and relies on killing enemies before they can deal much damage.

• provides okayish sustain, especially since this build has permanent Fury。
• You have several sources of stealth, which allow for repositioning or disengaging.
• Remember that you can always kill enemies with while running away, and they won't even come close to you.

Crowd Control

• If you need more crowd control you can use ，or ，or 。
