I think you’re just talking about underwater downed skills?

If you do the dungeons, toughness is very much necessary. Extra damage is worthless if you’re constantly downed.

Very much this. The first time I did dungeons, I was specced pretty much entirely Power, Precision, and Condition Damage, and I would be wiped out in like 3 hits.

Ever since switching to Power, Toughness, and Condition Damage, things have been going WAY smoother.

It really depends on how you feel like playing. Personally, I like to spec towards my phantasms/ condition damage in PvE, so I use a Staff with plenty of Power and Condition Damage traits. I also have a Greatsword as my 2nd weapon, mostly just to get Illusionary Berserker out and use the push-back skill if the mobs get too close.

I’ve also had lots of fun (especially in sPvP) with using Sword/Pistol, and putting more traits into the traits that directly incrase Phantasm damage, give them bleeds on crits, etc.

I’ve also recently seen Prometheus0110s videos on reddit , and they are way useful.

I also usually do Staff and Greatsword. Been thinking of switching over to Sword/Focus instead of Greatsword though, as I’ve heard the phantasmal warden is worth it.
