Tips & Tricks
- Prioritize Melee stat investment — every point scales this style's ability damage directly.
- Use i-frame abilities to dodge high-damage boss attacks while maintaining your combo. Time them just before incoming AoE hits.
- CC abilities are especially powerful in PvP — chain them with your hardest-hitting moves to maximize damage during the stun window.
- AoE moves are excellent for multi-boss farming and Raid events. Position yourself in the center of enemy groups before activating them.
- You keep all previously unlocked fighting styles. Return to the NPC to swap between styles at any time without losing progress.
- Pair this style with the Havoc or Wrath rune for maximum melee damage output. Fortune Rune is recommended if your main goal is farming boss drops.
