Overview
This Enigma, Staff and Orb build focuses on dealing high amounts of AOE damage through the use of both Staff and Orb skills focusing mostly on the damage side, allowing you to burst down targets quickly before they react. While it requires a good amount of experience, the build does great in all kinds of PvP content, battlegrounds or arenas and even dominion or boss fights.
Attributes




To get the most damage from this build, focus mainly on Dexterity and Perception, since they boost your DPS the most. Putting points into these will let you hit harder in every fight. Adding some Wisdom can also help by giving you more mana regeneration, but damage stats should still come first. Don’t forget to put at least 30 points into Strength, as it gives you a nice boost to your health.
Skills






















The Staff & Orb Enigma is an excellent choice for solo players who prefer not to rely on guilds or for those who enjoy engaging PVP. However, it doesn't mean that it doesn't do good while in groups.
In terms of skills, your main damage will be coming from your Judgment Lightning, fully charged
Serial Fire Bombs,
Void Slash and even your
Infernal Meteor and
Interstellar Explosion combo is capable of doing great quick bursts of damagein an area and deny a whole area with only these skills.
Temporal Leap allows you to teleport and become invisible while also increasing cooldown speed, being a great skill for movement and repositioning as it adds the option of Stealth.
As far as passives go, you should focus on upgrading Flame Condensation for additional damage.
Mana Amp for much needed extra mana
Astral Overseer for extra crit rate chance and more importantly lowering
Starcalling cooldown. Lastly,
Pulsating Galaxy to passively increase magic damage done whenever you use staff or orb skills.

Rotations











- This rotation is focused on delivering the highest possible damage through the use of Staff skills. Start with
High Locus to buff yourself before using
Serial Fire Bombs to apply damage and burn stacks. Continue with
Ice Spear to bind your target before using
Judgment Lightning to deal high damage. You can also use
Infernal Meteor if you are quick enough before the binding ends.











- Use
Summon Constellation to summon 3 Orbs before using
Void Slash to hit the Orbs and the people caught next to them and deal high damage. Follow up with
Interstellar Explosion quickly after that alongside
Stellar Dash.














- Bind an enemy with
Ice Spear before summoning 3 Orbs on top of the enemy. Use
Interstellar Explosion followed by
Void Slash and
Judgment Lightning.
High Locus: You should use this ability regularly to increase your hit rate and also improve your evasion!
Temporal Leap: Use this to go into stealth and get away from enemies when being pressured.
Useful Information
- Select Lady Knight Kamarshea as your guardian; it provides essential protection with its shield, capable of absorbing damage equal to 50% of your mana. This not only aids in mitigating damage but also increases your cooldown speed in order to let you heal more often. However, you can also use Shade Revenant Stheno or Geen Ranger Elowen if you are looking to deal extra damage or root enemies if you are in a party that has to burst down enemies quickly or lock down groups.
