  3. Dodge Weapon Swap during this Dodge

Maximize uptime by Dodging approximately every 4 seconds. You can accomplish this by filling time between Dodges with 2x Auto Attack Chains and one sequence.

If comes off Cooldown during a Auto Chain filler:

  1. Skip the second Auto Attack Chain and cast
  2. Dodge
  3. Dodge

If comes off Cooldown during a Dodge:
