Overview
A condition DPS Soulbeast build for raids and fractals. The build is very straightforward to play and presses its skills off cooldown to deal high Bleeding and
Poison damage. It is rather bursty for a condition build, so can work well even on bosses with short phases.
For an even simpler version without reliance on melee, see Soulbeast - Condi Shortbow DPS.

Pet Variants
- Use
Warthog instead of
Lynx for
Brutal Charge for more CC at a small DPS loss.
Fanged Iboga can be taken instead of
Lynx on bosses that attack frequently. See Gear Variants for the changes needed for this.
- If you have enough time to precast, you can use
Bristleback and precast
Sharpen Spines before the fight, then switch back to
Lynx for a small DPS increase.
Weapon Variants
Condi soulbeast has a lot of viable weapon options, but you want to keep the shortbow regardless.
- Mainhand Axe could be used if you need to be at range for long periods, or if you struggle with counting auto chains.
- Torch is a more notable dps loss, but isn't too significant if you really dislike the animation lock from .

- This setup assumes you have a tier-10 Jade Bot core. If you don't have one, you would want to switch in an extra 4 Spiteful infusions, but the core is cheaper so this isn't recommended.
Gear Variants
If you find
to be prohibitively difficult to acquire, you can instead use the following:- and

Torch rotation
If using offhand torch, use
