A power DPS build for Weaver. This is a fast paced DPS build that swaps between attunements constantly for Dual Attack skills.


Skill Bar

Sword/Dagger
Utility


Skill Variants

Healing

  • is a blast finisher, which may be useful in fractals as Might Might can run low if your group is running without a healer.
  • provides more group healing at the expense of personal healing.
  • will provide the most uptime in fights with very low pressure where you aren't pressing your heal skill.

Utility

  • for large hitbox bosses, where you know you will be able to pick up the second conjure.
  • can replace or in very fast fractal groups.

Specializations


Trait Variants

  • in fractals or Keep Construct where you can consistently break defiance bars.
  • can be swapped to for an alternative rotation.
  • might be worth taking in fractals as Weakness Weakness uptime will likely be poor so you won't benefit from the increased critical chance. The extra vitality will provide some additional precision via , but you will still need to make up the rest.

General Tips

  • If running , swap to water attunement at step 17 and use before instantly attuning twice to and continuing the rotation from step 20.
  • Make sure to use enough that it isn't sitting at full ammo. You should only use it when in /, and should try to line it up with other damage modifiers, such or or the bonus power from .
  • Use shortly after you swap to / to make sure as many of its ticks happen while you're in double fire as possible.
  • After the first use of (in either attunement), use off cooldown. Use instead if you know the target will die or phase within 20 seconds.
  • Make sure not to interrupt your auto attack chains, as their damage is heavily backloaded.
  • In encounters you should always be looking for opportunities to reset your attunement back to / so that you can repeat your burst. Split Phases or periods where the target is immune to damage are ideal - try to time your attunement swap so that you enter / just before the target becomes vulnerable again so that you will benefit from .
  • Make sure that you have the boss selected before casting to avoid flying away to your death.
    • This is also relevant for , and also to a lesser extent.


Breakbars

  • inflicts a short daze that is rounded up to be equivalent to a 1 second daze when used against a breakbar.
  • is available as your 5 skill. Be mindful of your positioning when casting this, as it will move you approximately 300 units away from your target.
  • is available as your 4 skill.
  • is available as your Air/Earth 3 skill.

OfficerAndyGentleman gave this build 5 stars • May 2023
Great burst and sustained damage more than make up for the fully melee requirement, squishiness and forced movement. Very strong in fractals and even stronger in raids.
5 stars
Screaming gave this build 5 stars • September 2018
High damage with good mobility and being actually fun to play (unlike Staff Weaver) makes this among the best choices for small hitbox bosses.
5 stars
Chinkeeyong gave this build 5 stars • September 2018
An extremely strong and versatile burst DPS build.
