Rotation & Extras

The pulsing damage of can Reveal you while in Stealth. You must practice your timing around to avoid this problem.

It is strongly advised that you disable Auto Cast on Spear skill 1, by holding CTRL and Right Clicking the skill. If that setting remains enabled, then any skill can interrupt your Stealth Attack. If you want to queue into your next skill while the Stealth Attack is channeling, then Auto Cast must be disabled!

Precast up to five minutes before the fight, as it Recharges while armed. You can reset its cooldown with Mushroom King's Blessing when practicing.

Precast as combat starts, except when practicing on the golem.

Only use when your target is above 90% HP; afterward, use .

Loop

Cast , , , off Cooldown.
Rotation Notes

Cast Venoms with allies nearby, after combat starts so they don't get removed by the boonstrip at the start of most encounters.

Avoid interrupting skills with /.

You can cast and in between individual skills in your Spear combo without resetting the chain.

You can swap to / when forced outside melee range, but remember you can also just spend a little more time in casting and Auto Attack. Spend Initiative only on .
