Lost Ark: Duelist Guide with Spirit Glee

-

The Duelist is a powerful melee character who controls ki and spirit energies. This guide will look at a duelist with an engraved Spirit of Triumph. Engraving passively generates spirit energy (2, 3, or 4% per second) and increases the damage of spirit skills (by 10, 15, or 20%, depending on the level of engraving). The build uses Ki skills (to balance energy). However, most of the damage comes from spirit skills.

1. Advantages and disadvantages of the Duelist with the Triumphant Spirit in Lost Ark

The mechanics of the class remain the same regardless of the stage of development of the character. By the time you get access to engravings, you will know exactly how the abilities you need work. The jubilant spirit can not be pumped above the first level. All points are spent on other engravings with bonuses for damage. 

Unlike other builds, the Spirit of Triumph duelist does not rely on Lost Ark gems, cards, or high-level tripods. All these improvements will be useful, but the build can function at full capacity without them. In addition, the Spirit of Triumph provides a high leveling speed, which will surely appeal to novice players.

Advantages:

  • Powerful attacks
  • Predictable damage, dynamic rotation
  • Abilities inflict high-level exhaustion. There are counterattacks

Disadvantages:

  • To deal effective damage, you must stand behind the target.
  • Long ability animation
  • Most abilities have a short-range



2. Duelist's Playstyle with Spirit of Triumph in Lost Ark

Duelist is a fast and durable melee class. Ki skills (yellow) are quick attacks consisting of multiple hits. Spirit skills (green) have a long animation and high damage. All builds are designed to find a balance between the two types of skills.

Ki skills generate spirit energy. Spirit skills generate ki energy. Skills must be applied so that the energy never ends. The Spirit of Triumph build uses a fuzzy rotation to keep the energy balanced depending on the circumstances.

If you are mastering a new boss, take the time to learn how he moves. Some bosses often stand still and are easy to get to from the back. Others run back and forth and have to be followed. It is not necessary to strictly fulfill the positional requirements; to win. It is enough to use abilities promptly and evade the opponent's abilities.

In high-level content, characters can use healing potions, but they cannot completely replace healers in the usual sense. Unlike other MMOs, Lost Ark's healing is very limited, so try to dodge damage at all costs. However, if you are using the Silent Assassin engraving, you will need to pay more attention to positioning.

The Duelist can play in a group with any support, including spear masters and paladins. He deals predictable damage and can use any buffs. The most beneficial partners for duelists are blades of death - they have a negative effect that increases damage from positional attacks, including most of the Duelist's abilities.



3. Skills and builds of the Duelist with the Triumphant Spirit in Lost Ark

Each character has access to different class abilities. Each skill has tripod effects that change its mechanics. The Duelist can choose eight normal skills and one awakening skill. However, he does not have the skill of identification. Below we will look at the available options for different situations.


Universal build

A versatile build designed to deal AoE damage to large groups of enemies. It also provides the character with high mobility. We recommend that you choose the following skills and tripods:

  • 240 points
  • 252 points
  • 268 points
  • 296 points
  • 312 points
  • 340 points


Thrash serves as the basis of the Duelist's rotation. Constantly maintain the effect of Battle Thrill to inflict as much damage as possible on opponents. The damage from Thrash is not very serious, but this ability has a tripod of Battle Thrill, which enhances other attacks. Fists of Fury amplifies damage with Fury Mantra and maintains energy balance. In addition, Thrash has a small cooldown and replenishes spirit energy.

Descending Sun Strike provides fast movement and AoE damage related to Ki skills. If desired, it can be replaced with another skill - Triple Wave with 100% duration Mantra of Rage. 

In addition, Triple Wave has a lower cooldown and makes it easier to manage energy. Also, Descent Sun Kick can be replaced with Blinding Flash. 

This option is suitable for those who want to deal with as much energy as possible, but do not forget that the ability has a shorter range, and it is inconvenient to use it against large groups of enemies.

Spiritual Rush is the Duelist's most recognizable skill. It needs to be supplemented with Mighty Strike (at least for the sake of the visual component). Spiritual Blast is used to counterattack and deal constant damage. Try to apply it so that it does not lead to an overflow of the energy of the spirit.

All other abilities used in the build are intended to deal damage in a large radius. Tripods for these abilities are chosen based on personal preference. Rising Sun Strike - any tripods in the first and second row. Lightning Dance deals more damage. 

Pull provides solid control. Weak spot deals bonus damage against bosses, Piercing increases damage against all targets. Don't forget that Rising Sun Kick can be used to move quickly.

Relentless Wrath is a flexible skill that allows the character to strike the ground differently. In the second row, you can choose any tripod. Pull controls enemies. Lava bursts deal "true" damage, and Unwavering Will grants interruption resistance, which is especially useful given the long animation. 

We recommend that you try out all three options and choose the one that feels more comfortable for you. In any case, Relentless Fury is one of the best skills in all of Acrasia.

Spiritual orbs are unlocked at level 50 and allow the character to create black holes. This is another great skill that fully matches the theme of the class. We recommend choosing Penetrating Stream for additional damage or Pull for controlling opponents in the second row.

The last skill on the list, Thunderstrike, is rarely found in Spirit Skill builds, as it is not a spirit skill. However, it is very strong, and we do not recommend ignoring it. Thunderstrike fires quickly and has a large range. 

Try to play with him at least on pumping. Flash deals more damage to bosses. If you strongly dislike Thunderstrike, use Blinding Blast instead. However, the build is meant to kill packs, so Thunderstrike is listed as the default option.

All of the above abilities, except Spirit Blast, count as back attacks. When properly positioned, they deal 5% more damage and their critical chance increases by 20%. This is important only in battles with bosses. 

Small opponents can not be bypassed. As an awakening ability, you can choose an option. We recommend sticking with Transcendental Strike - it's easier to use than Dragon Fist.


Raid build

Boss fights (such as Guardians) use abilities with maximum damage, no control, and abilities to increase mobility, allowing you to avoid damage.

  • 240 points
  • 252 points
  • 268 points
  • 296 points
  • 312 points
  • 340 points


The boss build is very similar to the universal build, so you don't have to retrain. The only difference is that the Blinding Flash skill is mandatory in the raid build. As mentioned above, it deals massive damage to a single target. Always boost your flare with Thrash of Battle.

The advantage of the raid build is that its potential is revealed already at 252 points. Additional points increase support abilities and increase mobility but are not required.

Tripods' Spiritual spheres can be changed depending on the specifics of the battle. Instant Explosion makes it easier to hit targets, but choose Piercing Stream for extra damage if you don't have trouble hitting.

As an awakening ability, you can choose an option. We recommend sticking with Transcendental Strike - it's easier to use than Dragon Fist.



4. The priority of the characteristics of the Duelist with the Triumphant Spirit in Lost Ark

The most important stats for a Spirit of Triumph build are Critical Strike and Mastery. Mastery amplifies the damage of spirit skills that are used most often. Critical hit affects all damage. Gain stats roughly evenly, with a slight bias towards mastery (about 60/40).



5. Engravings, Skill Runes, and Consumables for Duelist with Triumphant Spirit in Lost Ark

Engravings

Engraving of the Exulting Spirit serves as the basis of the build. It enhances the skills of the spirit and speeds up the process of generating spirit energy. The first level of the triumphant spirit will be enough. All other points are better spent on improving other engravings.

Specifically, you'll need a Tier 3 Titan Slayer and a Tier 3 Silent Assassin. The Titan Slayer needs to be leveled up as quickly as possible, as its positive effect scales with the level, and the negative one does not.

Silent Assassin empowers attacks from behind and enforces positional requirements. If this doesn't suit you, you can choose Golem or Celerity. You can also upgrade the Exultant Spirit to the third level.

Ambush deserves special mention. The ambush is not very popular, as it is not useful in boss fights. However, it works well in dungeons and world content. Engravings with protective effects (such as Heavy Armor and Tirelessness ) are not recommended for use, as they greatly reduce the potential for damage.


Pet characteristics

Pets buff the owner. We recommend choosing the variant with mastery and a bonus to health.


Consumables

There are no uniquely useful consumables for a duelist with a triumphant spirit. Below we provide situational options that may be useful to you in certain conditions. A strong potion of the Clay Witch and the Monastery's Amulet is used to survive in critical situations. 

Samoa Bomb (Exhaustion), Frag Bomb (Destruction), and Frag Grenade (General Damage) can be used to meet damage requirements in specific battles. Duelist abilities inflict a high level of exhaustion by default, so Frag Grenade is the best option, but you can use bombs if you need to.



6. Decks of cards for the Duelist with the Triumphant Spirit in Lost Ark

Cards are mined at high levels and put into decks. Pumping them requires a large investment of time and resources. The build-in question does not require specific decks so you can use any deck for damage. Boer Morhen (12) for a critical hit or History of the Ark (12+) light damage is suitable for a high-level game. If you don't have these decks, use any option with a health bonus (such as World Bosses or Armory).

Path of Exile 3.6 Most Popular Bladefall Build Guide

-
Image
Bladefall is a ranged spell which has a unique area of effect mechanics. Unlike other aoe skills, bf's single target damage suffers from increased aoe and benefits from less aoe because a single cast creates 5 volleys and a single target will be hit by more volleys when each of the volleys covers less area. Of course, this depends on the size of the target. The bosses tend to be big, and we can assume that they are hit by more than a single volley. This mechanic is beneficial for us as we can skip all the increased aoe passives in the tree and concentrated effect gem empowers the spell more than usual. In Path of Exile 3.6 Synthesis, Bladefall has been modified, Mana Cost at gem level 1 is now 12 (was 13). Mana Cost at gem level 20 is now 23 (was 26). Now deals 44 to 66 Physical damage at gem level 1 (from 44 to 65) and 411 to 617 Physical damage at gem level 20 (from 380 to 570).

Escape from Tarkov is normally a game whose ultimate goal is survival. Players call for to play PMC or Scav, appear for gear concerning the map and knockdown enemies to plunder their elements, and attain any evacuation point ahead with all the countdown ends.
