ROTATION – NECROMANCER BOW BUILD

  • We will apply our Dots
    • Skeletal Archer, Endless Hail, Barbed Trap, Poison Injection > Magnum Shot
  • Begin your spammable rotation
    • Blastbones > Acid Spray > Acid Spray — Repeat until battle is over, replacing an Acid Spray with whichever dot is falling off as necessary

Yeah, it’s that simple!

  • Insert Detonating Siphon anytime after the previous Detonating Siphon has blown up.

  • Use Resolving Vigor when necessary. We do not use Camouflaged Hunter, it is simply there for the passive it provides.

  • *For longer boss fights without adds, slot Lethal Arrow instead of Camouflaged Hunter and use Lethal Arrow as the Spammable. This will increase your single target damage, and help with your sustain.
