Overview

An excellent LI build on a class with a plethora of non-combat utility.


What Is LI

LI stands for "Low-Intensity". LI builds are a class of builds that work to slow the game down drastically by using passive defense and builds that require very low input to function. These builds are designed primarily for players that have disabilities that may prevent them from playing higher intensity builds, though they are here for any player who wishes to play them.

LI builds function quite well on their own and are created to be equivalent to our General or Roaming build section. They typically do not output especially high DPS and focus on gear with passive defense.

This build is fantastic for open world with a little tweaking. I swapped the channeled vigor for signet of malice for insane sustain regen, rotate between bandit's defense and fist flurry, swapped out dagger storm for thieves guild. Have no issues soloing most hero points and pretty much can take hits like a tank. Highly recommended to dodge as much as you can (you get 3 dodge bars).

A true LI build, just staff autoattack or P/P unload already provides good enough DPS so an older player like me can focus more on doing game mechanics or avoiding bosses attack. Much easier to play than most other builds.

Staff autoattack makes this build very easy to play!
