The reason I open with Behind Enemy Lines is because of it's high base damage, mobility and the really fast landing animation allowing for a really fast Triple Slash followup. Learn all possible combos and be able to use them at any time needed. Adjust depending on matchup and cooldowns, or anticipate what your enem(ies/y) is/are planning on doing. Keep in mind this is a bestcase scenario rotation. It's a fast disengage that will save your life many times when you are overextended.ĭepending on which class/player you play against, you'll have to adjust your rotation, but this is your main rotation: (Don't buff if you are too far from your target, doing so will allow stealth classes to just stealth and wait out your buffs)įreerunner-> Battle Focus ->Liberation ->Behind Enemy Lines ->Triple Slash->Overwhelm->Shadowsmite->Precision Strike->Charge->Triple Slash->Throw Dagger -> Whirlwind Slash ->Tiger Strike Sloth glider, the backward roll skill built in is a MUST HAVE for world pvp. With changes to Deflect and Retaliate, I'm leaning more towards Attack speed though.Īnthem of battlerage, the 300 warrior tokens battlerage instrument. Rings: Gale ring for defense pen and Dream ring.Ĭape: Either attack speed or block guild cape. As for flame, the str is nice, but the evasion is the biggest reason I prefer this earring over any other.

While you don't gain anything from intellect besides bigger mana pool, the damage reduction is huge. Yes, it will most likely make you lose gearscore but numbers don't always equal better gear)Įarrings: Wave or Flame. Necklace: Proven warrior necklace rank 11+ (until you can get a divine epherium lightning necklace or higher, the defense pen from the lightning necklace will help you way more than the bonus effects from halcy neck.
#Dark runner dual dagger full#
I personally use 4 piece flame atm but will be switching to full obsidian to gain more HP and resistances. If you are really dedicated, you can get the dark warrior's guards, which requires you to get 7 set leather from serp and 500 proven warrior tokens. Axes have a bleed effect, but are by far the worst weapon in the game because of it's damage scattering.įor the other pieces you have the choice, either Delphinad/Ayanad Desert/ flame or obsidian gear. Dagger is a great off-hand because it provides you with an attack speed buff when it procs. Now however I heavily suggest against that. Swords have a parry passive, hence why dual swords combined with Dual-Wield Proficiency really fucked over archers. In Alpha I experimented to great success with dual swords as well, back when archers were not nerfed into the ground. This is great versus the tanky meta going on right now. Reason why shortspear is pretty much the goto one-hander mainhand is because of the puncture passive it has, negating ALL defensive buffs when it procs. Every weapon type has an extra hidden passive that isn't listed in the tooltip ingame. In case you don't know about weapon hidden passives, now you will. Obsidian Nodachi (T5+, hungering version) IMPORTANT! LEARN OTHER CLASSES TOO AND HOW THEIR COMBOS WORK! If you don't put time into learning your matchups, you won't know what might happen and you won't be able to fight at full potential.

Having the passive Reckless Charge will also give you a nice 40% boost after any of your battlerage engage tools, which is really helpfull for relocating to the back of your target or doing a hit-and-run. You want to abuse the high mobility this class offers you with skills like Teleportation, Mirror Warp, Drop Back, Shadow Step, Charge, Tiger Strike and Behind Enemy Lines. As a darkrunner you want to adjust depending on the situation, in mass pvp, you're the assassin that stalks enemy healers nightmares. The cool part about darkrunning is that there is no one set way to play it, you can go plate darkrunner, leather darkrunner, you can use pretty much any weapon and still be viable. It's an easy class to get into, but the skill ceiling is way higher than most people anticipate. I dont PvP, so if you know better, or things have changed, please contribute.ĭarkrunner is a class that bases itself on high burst damage and insane mobility. Another build / rotation for 2.9 found on the net.
