Duelist Tips & How to Use

Weak Spot

Take advantage of the Duelist's high critical hit chance with Weak Spot. This Ability disregards an enemy's position and will always ensure a critical hit when it lands.

Lightbringer Extension

The Duelist has a passive ability that allows it to extend the duration of Lightbringer. Though a close-combat fighter, the Duelist can easily be overwhelmed if surrounded. This is very useful in these situations as it can allow you to pick off enemies one by one.
