Variants

Weapons

• Template:Skill bar variant can be used for those that do not have SoTo's Weaponmaster Training unlocked.
• If not using infusions to add Concentration then full Ritualist can be used. What matters is that concentration over 1000 caps the 100% Boon Duration, so any additional concentration provides no additional benefit.

Consumables

Food

• Adds concentration and +40% Magic Find

Utility

• Adds conditional damage and +30% Magic Find

Usage

Standard Rotation

The aim is to prioritize speed and survivability while steering clear of increasing power and direct damage. Focus on tagging mobs rather than eliminating them instantly.

While in Legendary Dragon Stance, activate Facet of Light, Facet of Elements, and Facet of Chaos at the same time to achieve a -1 Energy Upkeep cost, enabling the presence of Quickness. When your energy dips below 10%, switch to Assassin stance, which will start you off with 70% Energy.

When in Legendary Assassin Stance, use Impossible Odds to gain a 50% increase in movement speed and maintain the -1 Energy Upkeep cost. When your energy drops below 10%, transition back to Dragon Stance, where you'll again begin with 70% Energy.

This strategy ensures you consistently maintain 6 stacks of Rising Momentum, further supporting high movement speed.

General Tips

• Guild Item Research can add 10% Magic Find if selected
• Candy Corn Gobbler offers several boons including Magic Find
• Jade Bot Core: Tier 10 increases Vitality by 235
• Jade Bot Service Chip: Rescue Protocol highly recommended
• In the Enrichment slot, use Otter’s Blessing Enrichment for +20% Magic Find
