Active Skills

Inject Venom, Deadly Marker, and Strafing are the bread and butter of this build, quickly applying Thunderclouds stacks. Zephyr's Nock and Ensnaring Arrow can be used for an extra burst of damage and should be used when available. Flash Arrow can be used to briefly stun a horde of enemies before repositioning

Once the enemy is below 50% health, use Shadow Strike, Fatal Stigma, Umbral Spirit, and Frenzied Sword Dance to deliver the final blow. Nature's Blessing can be used to recover health. When levelling skills, always max out and prioritize Zephyr's Nock, Strafing, Inject Venom, and Deadly Marker.

Passive Skills

Destructive Fang and Murderous Energy increase Thunderclouds uptime and damage bonuses from skill specializations.

Assassin's Instincts, Wrathful Edge, Steady Aim, Roxie's Arrowhead, and Sniper's Sense should be taken as they provide a consistent damage boost. Additionally, Shadow Walker increases your defenses and evasion when using mobility skills.

Prioritize Destructive Fang, Murderous Energy, Wrathful Edge, and Assassin's Instincts when levelling passive skills.

The Ghost Wolf set bonus provides damage as well as increased chance for off-hand attacks. This significantly boosts your damage output when skills are on cooldown, and further helps applying Thundercloud and Gale stacks.

For accessories, Collar of Decimation and Ancient Saurodoma Bracers are taken for the extra boost to Evasion given. Amber Dimensional Band, Deadeye Band, and Girdle of Spectral Skulls all provide boosts to Dexterity and Perception, allowing you to reach stat breakpoints.

How to Play Longbow / Dagger Build
Ranged Thunderclouds Stacking Combo AOE/Mobbing Melee Execute Combo

Note: If the skills icons are confusing, some of the skill icons indicated here are using their specialized variants.

Ranged Thunderclouds Stacking Combo

▶ ▶ ▶

After initiating with Inject Venom and Deadly Marker, activate Strafing to stack Gale and Thunderclouds on the target. Activate Zephyr's Nock to finish off the combo.

Lightning Infusion is a non negotiable. Target under Deadly Marker is also viable. Consecutive Use and Gale under Strafing is required to maximize Gale stacks. Lastly, take Damage ▲ under Zephyr's Nock.

AOE/Mobbing Rotation

▶ ▶ ▶

Activate Inject Venom to inflict Thunderclouds during the combo. Then, activate Flash Arrow to briefly stun enemies before blinking into melee range with Shadow Strike. Finish off the combo with Frenzied Sword Dance to inflict AOE damage and more Thunderclouds stacks in a group of targets.

Flash Wave under Flash arrow provides a wider AOE. Shadow Escape under Shadow Strike is also a necessity to ensure an escape.

Bossing Skill Rotation

▶ ▶ ▶ ▶

Blink into melee range with Shadow Strike, activating Umbral Spirit and Fatal Stigma to boost your DPS before activating Frenzied Sword Dance. After that, activate Brutal Incision when the enemy is below 50% HP.

Blink away with Shadow Escape, or reposition again to start the ranged skill rotation, and cycle between these two.

For skill specialization, Lightning Spirit under Umbral Spirit can be taken to maximize Thunderclouds stacks. Lastly, take Thundercloud Bombing under Brutal Incision to deal bonus damage to targets with the Thunderclouds debuff.
