Usage

General

• Your role is to roam the map and +1 fights, overwhelming enemies with your damage.

• Sustain's on the lower end, you're mostly going to be relying on escape tools when you're focused like Shift Signet, Rocket Boots or Jump Shot.

• Most of the damage comes from spamming Rifle Burst, the autoattack.

• Net Shot and Overcharged Shot are useful CCs for setting up burst.

• Use Blunderbuss on CD, there's no reason not to.

• Elixir U is one of your stunbreaks, but as long as any other stunbreak is available you're free to use it for boosting your auto attack spam with Quickness if you feel like it's worth it.

• Signets retain their passives even when they're on CD so don't hesitate to use Rectifier Signet whenever your HP drops.
