Overview

This Fighter PvP build focuses on the explosive power of the Fighter, capable of ganking enemies solo and being one of the top choices when attacking caravans as the Fighter offers incredible single target burst damage while remaining relatively easy to pull off. No matter if you are playing solo or with a group, this build performs well in both scenarios while the unique Combat Momentum mechanic of the class and the use of the bow in pvp offers plenty of room to grow as a player and improve.

With stamina being a core part of PvP, its management is very important and so you should first invest into Escape Velocity for extra movement speed while sprinting in combat (default key C), this is particularly important during fights as it allows you to kite enemies and stay out of their range or retreat entirely. Up next you should invest into Recuperation and Evasive Maneuver in order to temporarily boost your evasion rate when dodging and also eventually get access to Springstep which greatly improves your mobility by increasing your dodge distance. The remaining points should go into the Sustained Guard side of the build that reduces the stamina drain whenever you block (default key E). Mental Fortification also helps as it lowers the chance you will be CC'd while blocking which can also be useful at times.

Rotations

Kill Rotation ↴

• First you want to make sure that you are in the correct form with Form Of Celerity as this allows you to apply Stagger to enemies whenever you use Overpower.

• Once you found your opponent, start the fight with Blitz to deal some good damage while also building Combat Momentum. Continue with Overpower to stagger the target, debuffing their evasion and making it easier for you to deal damage. Follow up with Rupture to apply a bleed DoT that deals damage and also applies Wounded if they move, dealing even more damage after 5 seconds based on the amount of Wounded stacks the target has.

• Use Crippling Blow next to trip the player and then use Maim to deal high damage thanks to the extra damage the skill does to tripped targets. Finish off the rotation with Lethal Blow then move on to your next enemy.

Short Rotation ↴

• Make sure Form Of Celerity is active before using Blitz to engage before transitioning into Overpower which will stagger the target. Use Cataclysm to trip them and then Maim to finish them off. You can also extend this rotation with Knock Out if you need a few seconds to regain cooldowns.
