Heya everyone! I’m levelling, gonna be 80 soon, and i’ve been trying to find a meta build for dungeons / fractals, and no matter where I look I cannot seem to find an up to date one.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, and have a great day!

6/6/0/0/2 d/d for bosses, Sw/p for trash. Keep signet of agility at pretty much all times, other good ones are SR (for skipping) or smokescreen (for skipping or projectile reflects). Assassins signet is fairly good as well. Save the active on it for bosses <25% HP and spam heart seeker. All berserker gear, scholar runes, life steal food

Also the rotation for d/d is CnD→backstab→1 full auto chain→repeat. For Sw/p pistol whip does slightly more DPS than the auto chain, however the difference in dmg is very slight. On top of that the sword auto gives perma weakness, so that if an attack does somehow sneak through, its not going to hit hard at all. so youre better off saving your initiative to benefit from 25 in crit strikes, as well as the blind field helps your whole team stay alive. However if you do somehow get stuck in a boss fight with Sw/p pistol whip is the way to go, since bosses are basically immune to blinds. Dont just spam it tho, watch animations to get the best use of it. In case you didnt know, pistol whip evades all attacks for the second part of the skill. Signet of malice is also a pretty good choice of heal with Sw/p, due to pistol whip hitting multiple times, and healing up with crit procs and that is great when trash can’t even touch you cus theyre permablinded. Keep a shortbow on hand as well, just not as your main weapon. Cluster bomb is essentially a spammable blast finisher, which is awesome to use in fire fields to stack up might, water fields to heal everyone up, or smoke fields to skip a certain part of the dungeon (thats where smokescreen comes in)
