Core Loop

  1. Opening (tempo): Establish the first bleed stack fast; prefer DoT extenders
  2. Mid game (resource trading): Use summons to occupy flanks while you press the line
  3. End game/Boss (window management): High bleed stacks force bosses through phases quickly

Tip: create a safe window via control or mobility before bursting. If mana/stamina is tight, prioritize loop-sustain slots first.

Core Components (Trinkets / Rituals / Inspirations)

We use functional slots so you can swap equivalents across patches.

Key Trinkets

  • Slot A: Bleed stacking/uptime
  • Slot B: Refresh DoT on hit/crit
  • Alternates: On-hit leech or sustain

Key Rituals

  • Core Ritual: Higher DoT coefficient or tick rate
  • Support Ritual: Summon clones/undead to split aggro

Key Inspirations

  • Offense: Crit/Bleed amplifiers
  • Defense: On-hit sustain/DR
  • Mobility: Move speed on kill

Priority: loop sustain ≥ defensive forgiveness ≥ pure damage. Shift to burst once clears are stable.

Execution Details

  • Starting distance & angles: Close–mid stickiness while dodging ranged chip
  • Defensive reactions: Let summons tank dash-ins and flanks
  • Strings & finishers: Build → refresh → finish under summon cover

Enemy Types & Boss Strategy

  • Dashers: sidestep and tag with slow/CC; avoid straight retreats.
  • Shielded/High Poise: break poise/vulnerability before bursting.
  • Ranged clumps: use corners to split; delete throwers first.
  • Multi-phase bosses: control → 2–3 bursts → reset.
  • High-mobility bosses: shorten commits; lengthen control chains.

Progression (Unlocks / Resources)

  • Unlock first: DoT amp/refresh nodes early
  • Resource allocation: High APS/multi-hit scales best
  • Event priority: Favor crit/multi-hit events
  • Map tips: set control at chokes, clear outward; kill ranged/summoners first; enter bosses with a complete loop.

Co-op Synergies & Counters

  • Best partners: Hard CC partners enable ‘apply → hold → burst’ chains
  • Countered by: DoT-immune/resistant enemies
  • Counterplay: Pivot to burst slashes or more control

Advanced Variants

  • Variant A: Summon hybrid for safety
  • Variant B: Pure pressure for speed
  • When to swap: Dense maps favor pressure

Common Mistakes & Debug

  • Over-commit opener → remember “two hits then half-step back”.
  • Ignore stagger windows → control first, then strings.
  • Too little armor/poise → add 1–2 defensive slots.
  • Starve sustain for DPS → target a 2:1 DPS:sustain cadence.
  • Disrespect boss phases → disengage on long telegraphs.

FAQ

Q1. Is this build beginner-friendly?
A. Not ideal for first-timers—try Frost Control or Rune Summoner first.

Q2. Solo or duo—where does it shine?
A. Shines with tanks/CC partners that keep DoT ticking.

Q3. Should I change setup for bosses?
A. Against DoT-resistant bosses, swap to burst/poise break.

Q4. When should I pivot from “safe” to “burst”?
A. When you can maintain stacks and resource loops consistently.
