Fight Checklist

​

⬥ Keep pulverise + enfeeble applied while berserk

⬥ Have ezk equipped as often as possible while meleeing for Flamebound Rival damage reduction

⬥ Don't overspend bloodlust stacks before Glacyte Minions during berserk, needed for cane cooldown refund

⬥ Regularly use prismofrestoration to sustain hellhoundpouch

⬥ Use deathsporearrows grico once during each berserk for a faster setup on the next gdeathsswift

​

General Rotations

As a general rule, it is better to keep your hybrid rotation rolling even in the middle of mechanics. If your buffs run out while clearing Glacyte Minions, simply swap styles right then. If Pillars are currently happening, put up your buffs (without dying) anyway. This helps to ensure that you're spending minimal time outside of buffs for mechanics that can happen somewhat unpredictably.

For Arms (Exposed Core) specifically, if your buffs are close to running out while the ice is creeping in, just swap styles early to make sure you're not still building as the mechanic begins.

​

Opener

​

⬥ Arch Glacor spawns berserk + adrenrenewal → tc + gbarge → meteorstrike → ezk spec → gflurry → rend → apply pulverise + enfeeble → overpower → improvise with assault / varanussmercy eofspec / overpower / cane

​

⬥ First Mechanic:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Glacyte Minions: finish applying necessary debuffs first, then tumekenslight spec → chaosroar → cane → cane (until cleared)

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Arms: finish applying necessary debuffs first, then overpower → chaosroar → cane → varanussmercy eofspec → punish (until cleared)

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Cannon: make sure pulverise + enfeeble is applied + anti + powerburstofvitality

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Flurry: make sure pulverise + enfeeble is applied + reflect if needed

​

Ranged Phase

The following rotations are laid out as a general checklist that could deviate based on order of mechanics

​

⬥ deathsporearrows grico → gdeathsswift → imbueshadows → bolg spec → ecb eofspec → galeshot → rapid → improvise with deadshot / sgb eofspec / gloomfirebow eofspec / snapshot → use shadowtend to extend imbueshadows → ecb eofspec + rapid again (not always possible depending on mechanic order)

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Start with piercingshot → grico → piercingshot if grico was not used during berserk

​

⬥ Mechanics:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Glacyte Minions: reflect / debil → target bolstered + decimation eofspec → deadshot if available → spam gloomfirebow eofspec

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ If imbueshadows runs out, swap to melee early and meteorstrike + berserk to do the melee clear instead

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Arms: rapid → deadshot / gloomfirebow eofspec / snapshot / snipe / shadowtend

​

Melee Phase

​

⬥ meteorstrike → divert / stall adaptivestrike (only for adren, don't attack) → berserk → gbarge → gflurry + switch back to ezk as quickly as possible → make sure pulverise + enfeeble is applied → improvise with overpower / chaosroar + ezk spec / varanussmercy eofspec / assault → deathsporearrows grico + don't overspend bloodlust stacks

​

⬥ Mechanics:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Glacyte Minions: reflect / debil → target bolstered + equip tumekenslight + chaosroar / adaptivestrike → cane → cane → rend → cane → cane

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ Watch bloodlust stacks, need 4 for full cooldown reset on cane

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ reflect / debil is used because the Flamebound Rival damage reduction is lost while tumekenslight is equipped

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ After meteorstrike + berserk ends, swap to ranged to finish the clear with deathsporearrows grico → gdeathsswift → imbueshadows → decimation eofspec

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Arms: Improvise with overpower / chaosroar + cane / varanussmercy eofspec / assault / punish

​

Defensive Usage

⬥ At higher enrage, you will want to prioritise defensives as follows,

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Frost Cannon: anti → DeflectMage powerburstofvitality / debil / reflect (only one is needed)

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ res a hit if needed

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Exposed Core (Arms): devo if it goes too long, rarely needed

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Glacyte Minions: reflect / debil

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Flurry: disrupt / res / reflect / debil (reflect does decent damage at higher enrage)

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Pillars of Ice: prep / freedom for adrenaline
