Contents

The Critical Barrager uses the Assassin primary Attribute of Critical Strikes, and the skill Critical Eye to increase the chance of critical hits. Coupled with a zealous bow string, this character has to hit just 2 enemies per Barrage (on average) to recover the energy cost.

[edit] Usage

  • Set up with Favorable Winds.
  • Aim Barrage in the middle of tightly packed groups to maximize damage and condition spread.
  • Keep Critical Eye up constantly and spam Barrage.
  • Use Shadow Refuge to maintain your health and to counter Health Degeneration.
  • Distracting Shot and Savage Shot are used to interrupt enemies, particularly ones that spam a single skill, allowing for easy interrupts through the spamming. The increased recharge time imposed by Distracting Shot is especially useful against Wurms using Wurm Siege.

[edit] Variants

[edit] Notes

  • A Barrage ranger deals more consistent damage with higher levels of Marksmanship. However, this build allows for more frequent spike damage thanks to a much higher chance of critical hits.
  • A zealous bow string greatly helps with energy management, as hitting just two foes on average per Barrage is enough to fully recover the energy cost of Barrage.
