Warning

This build is optimized and meant to be used only in Kurzan Front. For Ebony Cube please use a Raid build.

This build focuses on dealing quick bursts of damage while keeping consistent uptime on the enemy. To achieve this, Esoteric Flurry picks several Attack Speed buffs from skills. It's not a burst-heavy class like its counterpart Deathblow, but still gets to see some relatively big numbers.

There's no special interaction or activation in his Identity.

All attacks with a Back Attack affix receive +10% Crit Rate and +5% Damage when they land on the target's back-side indicator. It is important to position yourself accordingly as much as possible to take advantage of this.

Striker Identity

Standard Rotation

• There is no strict order of skills in this playstyle. Instead, you focus on generating enough Esoteric Orbs and using your Spender skills during your self-buff windows. The rotation shown above is ideal as an opener, assuming you have no Esoteric Orbs or Adrenaline stacks to begin with.
• Remember to always maintain your Weakness Exposure, Lightning's Blessing party Synergies with Lightning Whisper, as well as your Blessing of the Wind self-buff using Sky Shattering Blow. This is specially significant before using your Spenders.
• Use Storm Dragon Kick to position yourself at the back and gain Adrenaline stacks.

Gems are another significant aspect of your build, as they directly impact the damage and cooldowns of your skills. You can equip up to 11 gems at a time. Here are the ones you should focus on to maximize this build's potential, listed according to their priority.

Engravings are a core part of your build. You can equip up to five at a time, freely swapping between them.

Engravings Information

• Mass Increase penalty can be easily negated by your Atk. Speed self-buffs (Lightning's Blessing and Blessing of the Wind) as well as Flurry Enhancement giving 10% Atk. Speed to your Esoteric Skills.

Bracelets provide beneficial effects to yourself or to your party members depending on the rolls they have.

The primary goal is to get the main stats used by this build - Specialization and Crit. After that, you should be aiming for Special Rolls to get more damage. Please note that this system is heavily reliant on RNG, and you should not expect to get much more beyond your main stats early on.

The recommended Elixir Set for this build is Master.
