Variants

• 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 goal is to maintain speed and survivability but avoid adding power and direct damage. Mobs should be tagged, not killed instantly.

In Legendary Dragon Stance run Facet of Light Facet of Elements and Facet of Chaos simultaneously to have an Energy Upkeep cost of -1 allowing Quickness to appear. Once your energy is below 10% switch to Assassin and you will start at 70% Energy.

In Legendary Assassin Stance run Impossible Odds to have a Movement Speed Increase of 50% as well as the -1 Energy Upkeep cost. Once your energy is below 10% switch to Dragon Stance and you will start at 70% Energy.

With this, you will also continuously have 6x stacks of Rising Momentum which will help to maintain 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
