Mortal Rope Dart & Nameless Sword PvP Build
- Good DPS
- Insane Mobility
- Good Catches
- Range Dictator
- High Skill Floor
- Difficult to Play Well
Overview
This build uses the
Mortal Rope Dart for its ability to deal high single target damage and also offer catch options with the
Bladebound Thread pulling you into enemies. Meanwhile
Nameless Sword is present in the build to deal damage from range and allow further mobility by using
Daunting Strike as another option to latch onto the enemy and deal damage while using
Vagrant Sword to hit from range.
Martial Arts
Gear
While the Gear part of the build is still under development and more information will come soon, you should use the Hawkwing + Eaglerise set combo. This part of the build is still under construction as far as specific stats go.
Inner Way
Sword Morph is a crucial skill because it boosts the damage of
Vagrant Sword as long as you maintain the shield granted by
Daunting Strike. When fully charged,
Vagrant Sword releases multiple waves of energy instead of just one, each dealing massive damage.
Morale Chant is one of the strongest PvP Inner Ways in Where Winds Meet and is considered a core choice for most builds. For PVP, you should take
Trapped Beast as it adds an extra layer of defense by applying a shield when your HP drops low, giving you enough room to survive another combo.
With
Vendetta, your
Bladebound Thread applies a longer-lasting Vendetta Token, allowing your rat to deal increased damage for an extended duration.
Mystic Skills
Yaksha Rush combos perfectly into
Free Morph, allowing you to juggle enemies into the air and deal strong follow-up damage.
Talon Strike is also excellent for both dealing damage and knocking enemies down so you can carry on the combo or jump back and away.
Dragon's Breath is a great defensive skill and it also does DOT damage, and you can cancel its animation with Deflect to immediately continue fighting after applying the burn. After using once, your next
Dragon's Breath casts are instant for the duration of the Intoxicated buff. Once the burn is up, follow up as needed.
Cloud Steps is extremely useful for engaging, disengaging, dodging incoming attacks, or quickly closing the gap on your target.
Another must-have is
Serene Breeze, which breaks you out of CC and enemy attack chains, allowing you to safely reset and re-enter the fight.
Golden Body is a valuable defensive tool as well, granting full CC immunity for its duration and helping you survive—or even secure a kill—when the situation becomes dangerous.
Rotations
- Catch a player using
Daunting Strike and then follow up with
Shadow Step to jump back and deal some damage. Once away from the enemy, buff yourself with
Rodent Rampage to get the rat out. Then, use
Bladebound Thread and Light Attacks so your damage is synced with the rat damage. Use
Dragon's Breath as a defensive move to block incoming attacks and also apply a dot.
- If the player is still exposed, carry on with
Yaksha Rush into
Free Morph. If the enemy is close to a wall, you can also follow-up with another (this time instant)
Dragon's Breath.
