DPS Chaos Virtuoso

AW2 June 27, 2023

Low Intensity DPS Condition Virtuoso

Description

Take special attention with the gearing, it's less straightforward that most.

Rotation

No need for weapon swap. You only spam Dagger and Dagger .

Note that Dagger is ground-targeted as of June 27

Whenever you have 5 blades you cast or .

If you want to increase DPS you can cast the elite: or if you are stocked with blades and both and are on cooldown.

Note that is no longer a block as of June 27

Don't bother casting phantasms since there are no traits improving them.

Blocks: You have 3 blocks always available since they are not part of the rotation, , Sword ,
CC: Sword , , , Torch (requires weapon swap)
Stun Break: Signet of Midnight is a stun break and it's always available since it's not part of the rotation

Features

Every time you press an F skill you gain Stability for 5s so you basically have perma stability.
If you want to increase damage by a small amount you can swap Blink to Rain of Swords and also use Torch4.
3% of your condition damage is recovered as heal and every time you create a blade you gain 350 health (Signet of Ether).

Alternative Off-Hand Weapons

Since you don't need to cast any skills from the off-hand weapon for the basic rotation, you can use any off-hand weapon, such as Focus for pulls or Sword for blocks.

Additional Notes

Food is important to get to 60% precision, with Fury you get to 100% crit chance. Your DPS is drastically affected if your Fury uptime is not 100%. Try not to press any other buttons if you are not sure how the build works because your dps might actually drop, it's literally just those 4 buttons (2, 3, F1, F2) and elite if you want to.
