This build requires: END OF DRAGONS, SECRETS OF THE OBSCURE

This build relies on the trait Daring Dragon to generate alacrity and stacks of Fierce as Fire to maintain damage. The APM is unfortunately high due to the reduced charge time for Dragon Slash - Force.

Notes

This build relies on Dragon Slash - Force (DT1) to deal most of its damage. Because of this, you must not delay Dragon Trigger and you have to use Dragon Slash - Force (DT1) almost immediately after triggering  Relic of Peitha.

You MUST learn this combo:

  1. Dragon Trigger
  2. Flickerstep (triggers  Relic of Peitha)
  3. Dragon Slash - Force (ASAP when charged)

  • Triggerguard can be added on for free aegis.

Simplified Loop

  2. Weapon Skills (5→1→Autos)
  3. Dragon Slash Combo
  4. Gunsaber (4→3→2→1→Autos)
  5. Dragon Slash Combo ↺

Crowd Control

This build has weak crowd control. Replace Signet of Might with a physical skills that has CC:

  • Bull's Charge
  • Kick

Physical skills provide a short term buff through Peak Performance, so you can mitigate the damage loss for bringing a CC if you use Dragon Trigger right after using one of the above CC skills.
