How to play this Skystrider Bow build?

PvE Setup

Use for PvE because the AoE makes clearing groups of mobs much faster. Pair it with for extra AoE damage and the root, which helps control packs while you clear.


PvP Setup

Switch to for PvP. It has good range and reduces the enemy's damage resistance, so your pressure gets stronger as you keep landing it.

Use in most PvP matchups. The knockback creates distance and is especially useful against melee players trying to stay on top of you. Against slower builds where you do not need as much mobility, you can use instead for extra damage and crowd control.


Main Abilities

gives you extra ranged pressure and can interrupt important casts or channels. Try not to waste it only for damage when there is something valuable you can stop.

helps you reposition and creates a strong fighting window. While standing inside the area, you gain extra damage and cooldown rate while players outside cannot affect you.

gives you movement speed and refunds weapon cooldowns whenever you use an ability. This helps you kite while getting important spells like and back faster.


Food

Use while clearing because the out of combat regeneration helps you recover between fights.

Switch to before serious PvP fights for the extra cooldown rate.
