Description

Use and abuse the lingering effect of Scriers Gaze to spam your staff attacks

Most times you can pretty much spam Scriers Gaze again after just a few seconds of cooldown

With this build you will be almost always between 50%-100% peril and you need to keep it that way to reap most of the benefits

You will also need to quell a lot manually to avoid overloading often

The blitz is mostly optional but I have a lot more fun chaining some Assail chards in the middle of combos or for dense crowds

The staff is also optional, except for the blaze staff, its not what we are doing here...

High crit is vital for Empathic Evasion to keep us alive

I invested in a lot of defensive nodes as I felt I was too fragile, but prob you can switch some of those for more agressive nodes if you are better at avoiding damage than I am

I highly suggest you get a mod to help you visualize the lingering effect timer to avoid blowing up often, mainly when you are still not used to the build

Also find it very practical to map some extra mouse buttons for switching to assail and for quelling
