Equipment Variants

Amulet

  • Taking Wizard Amulet for a more serious gameplay and survivability at the cost of some damage.

Relics

  • Relic of Peitha - viable option for damage not based on stun but on teleport with your Harrowing Storm.

Runes

  • Rune of Trapper - Less mobility for better condition damage and duration.


Sigils

  • Sigil of Energy over Sigil of Escape - if you can afford to give up some cleansing more endurance.


Usage

Elite specialization basics

  • Specters gain access to their own version of Death Shroud called Enter Shadow Shroud. Mechanically they are the same, replacing your skill bar while active. Damage taken while in Shroud drains Shadow Force instead of HP.
  • Using Siphon (Specter's version of Steal) and spending Initiative builds Shadow Force.


General

  • You need to prepare your axes before entering the fight with Venomous Volley (2 times to make 6 axes) to burst your target as soon as it's possible.
  • When you've got 6 axes waiting for your burst, cast Harrowing Storm to launch the axes to your target. If you run the build with venoms cast them before using Harrowing Storm. After your axes touches your target it'll be immobilize and you can use Siphon to stun the target and proc' Akeem.
  • Try not to do a lot of 1v1 with the troll version of this build, if you want to 1v1 play with the wizard variant with no venoms.
  • While 1v1 the target will dodge your Harrowing Storm so be patient and don't rush the fight.
  • While using Harrowing Storm don't dodge or swap weapon too fast, it'll cancel the launching of axes.
  • Dagger Storm is your escape button. Be careful as to when using it.
  • Roll for Initiative can be used to get back your initiative to burst again your target. As it's your only breakstun on the troll version, be espacially careful when to use it. If you're playing the serious version, it's more easy to use it aggressively.

Better to run DD on AD. Instead, you can pick-up regular SpecCondi build and replace scepter to axe/dagger. You can land your wells with axe/dagger 3 on opponent similar to sword 2. Burst combo is something like. 2x Axe #2 Shadowfall > axe3 Enter F2 > shroud combo.

Un build qui a de gros dégâts, même très surprenant, un peu difficile à prendre en main, très peu de survie, et n'est pas fait pour le duel.

Kinda fun to play, big damage, hard to survive with and basically no access to stealth beside dagger but it's not that bad
