Rotation

Arrow swaps note:

⬥ Arrows shown before an ability are used on cast, and arrows shown after an ability are equipped same tick as cast. ‎ ‎This allows in getting both arrow effects on the same ability

Prefight

At War's Retreat:

Touch crystal → click dummy + s meteorstrikeenhreplen + touch crystal

After entering the instance:

tc dummy r meteorstrike + natwenarrow piercinggricocaromingpiercing

_Notes:

⬥ You will need to use the east crystal and stall meteor on the closest dummy

⬥ If you are not last inside the instance, wait until everyone is in to release your stall. Otherwise, drop your dummy and release your stall as soon as possible

⬥ It is possible to stall infinitely by using dive and invokelordofbones / darkness

⬥ If time allows after your 2nd piercing, you may try to get more wenarrow stacks

⬥ Start with 3 to 7 perfectequilibrium stacks_

Phase 1

(3.0) ecb eofspec → s bolg spec → r bolg spec + rapid (8t) → dbow eofspecdbow eofspeczammybow eofspec + equip nightmaregauntlets

_Note:

⬥ Change dbow eofspec / zammybow eofspec order depending on adren

⬥ Skip zammybow if you Phase on the 2nd dbow and equip nightmaregauntlets one ability earlier_

_Notes:

⬥ Aim to have 15 wenarrow stacks before rapid (possible by tick switching arrows)

⬥ Flick between wenarrow and deathsporearrows during rapid to lower deathsporearrows cooldown to <20s, then camp wenarrow

⬥ Minion lures:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Umbra minion tank should surge on ecb eofspec

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Glacies minion tank should surge 2 ticks after decimation eofspec_
