[edit] Usage

Start by using Enduring Toxin on your target to degen them before you get close. Hex the with Scorpion Wire when you get the chance and run away from the target. Be ready when you teleport to their location, and they will be knocked down. As soon as they get back up, use Entangling Asp for another knockdown and a condition. Wait for them to get back up and use Iron palm for yet another knockdown and some damage. At this point they will probably try to run so hex them with Enduring Toxin again, and use Energy Drain to replenish yourself for the next target.

[edit] Counters

  • Energy Denial
  • Hex Removal
  • Knockdowns
  • Interrupts and Diversion
