EXAMPLES

gems

- If you still don’t have a Strong Crossbow to Endgame, don’t worry. Most of the time you’ll be clearing maps and not killing bosses, so use this Clear Setup that gives you more damage to your Explosive Shot.
- But when you enter a map with a boss it’s better to use the Single Target Setup that increases your chance to shock and applies Lightning Exposure to increase the damage of your Shockburst rounds.

- If you are using the Clear Setup on your Explosive Shot, you need to use this clear setup here on Shockburst Rounds.
- Now if you enter a map with a boss, use the Single Target Setup to destroy them. This skill deals tons of damage but can only be used when the enemy is shocked. The rotation is: Shock the boss with Explosive Shot, Hit the Boss with Shockburst Rounds. P.S. If Shockburst Rounds stop dealing a lot of damage is because the Boss is not shocked anymore, on this case use Explosive Shot again until it is shocked again.

- Emergency Reload is an amazing buff to increase your damage, the best way to use it is when you change to Shockburst Rounds, right before start hitting a Boss.
- Herald of Thunder helps with our clear and freezes enemies to proc Herald of Ice.

- Herald of Ice explode frozen enemies for a lot more Clear Speed.
- Herald of Ash causes overkill damage to ignite surrounding enemies, increasing even more our clear speed.

- Wind Dancer grants a lot of extra evasion.
- Sorcery Ward is a buff from the Witch Hunter Ascendancy, it grants you a shield that absorbs elemental damage. Great for your survivability.

- When dealing with bosses you can also use Conduction before Shockburst Rounds for a lot more damage.
- Voltaic Mark will increase your chance to shock and the magnitude of the shock inflicted, use it on bosses before shocking them with Explosive Shot.
