The Wardancer is a high-mobility, high burst damage, melee class that really shines in PvP arenas , although there are suitable builds for PvE. The Wardancer can build her power gauge and then unleash high-powered special abilities . Like other classes in Lost Ark, your playstyle is determined by your choice of Engraving. You'll find that the Wardancer has a fair bit of downtime between bursts, so be aware of this before you begin leveling. This guide is designed to help you make the right choice before you start working on your main. So here is our tip: during high-level endgame content you will spend your time, well, not doing much at all.
The Barrage Engraving boosts your Identity skill, which isn't really the main focus for the Artillerist, mostly because it makes you a sitting duck. This isn't so great when you're trying to clear a Raid or a Dungeon, even if you can clear waves pretty quickly with the turret. The Firepower Enhancement is a more reliable and consistent engraving.
How does the Sharpshooter play? Well, the class is viable in both PvE and PvP . During Raids your aim is to focus and deal big damage to the boss, whereas in PvP it's your role to kite and deal damage from afar. With a bunch of powerful abilities, a lot of mobility, and a unique playstyle, the Sharpshooter is a lot of fun to p
This overview guide covers some mechanics of the Artillerist, goes over how the Engravings impact your playstyle, and an overview of skills. We'll also include a short section on gameplay in T1 and beyond.
Slowly stacks crit damage chance over attacks (other than mobile and basic attacks), attack power increases by 1% for 6 seconds (can stack up to 6 times), when it reaches max stack you have an extra 15% chance to c The Barrage Engraving works with your Barrage mode, resets the cooldowns of all Barrage skills when you kill an opponent. This also increases skill damage by +2% with a 25 max stack.
Which one do you take with the Artillerist? Overall, the Firepower Enhancement engraving sees more use for PvE leveling and endgame clearing. Not only is the incoming damage reduction great for difficult content, but the boost to your crit rate also helps you deal even more damage during your burst window.
At level 3, Cursed Doll increases attack power by 16% and reduces healing by 25%. This is another go-to Engraving. The only time you might see this drop off is in very high-level, late-game raids due to its healing downside.
The Artillerist's Identity Gauge accrues Firepower over time . When your gauge is full, you enter into your badass Turret-mode, a high-damage yet static piece of kit that can easily solo PvE content, including some bosses and late-Anime Game DLC content. Watch out, though. You can't dodge or move while in turret mode.
At level 3, Keen Blunt Weapon increases your crit damage by 50% but increases the chance that your regular attacks do 20% less damage. This is fine on the Artillerist thanks to the crit rate chance from Firepower Enhancement and your high burst damage.
As well as the ranged attacks and a couple of melee attacks, the Sharpshooter's identity skill is to summon a Hawk . It acts a bit like a pet and requires very little micromanagement. You've got two options: send it in to tickle the enemy, or make it self-destr
This section is designed to give you a brief overview of the different Artillerist skills in a sample skillset that hovers between the 240-300 skill points mark . Rather than a detailed build breakdown, this is an overview of what sort of skills the Artillerist has on offer, as well as how the whole class comes together with shields, CC-immunity, and high burst DPS.
Like the Gunslinger, the Deadeye class has a weapon stance switch as its identity gauge and skill. Mastering Deadeye is all about knowing when to rotate abilities, manage buffs and debuffs , and keep your weapon stance changing to maximize cooldown reduction and timing .
The Wardancer has applicable builds for both PvE and PvP, although she is typically more common as a PvP class. However, PvP is usually determined by a set template, so we've outlined a very simple skill build for the Wardancer below to give you an idea of what your build might end up looking like. We will go into more detail about abilities, leveling order, and runes in our best Wardancer build guides.

Judgment increases the damage of your Punish (blue) skills, but its real use is in building up your Piety Meter faster. It's not uncommon for Paladins to spec for this Engraving to build up their gauge faster, allowing for better uptime on Holy Aura.
The Paladin is designed as a tanky support class that can provide team benefits in both PvP and PvE. Abilities come in two styles: Yellow (Holy Skills) and Blue (Punish Skills) . These are divided into support and attack damage skills— Yellow for Support, Blue for Damage. However, don't think you're going to be much damage. While you can pick up some damage for leveling, your role is solely to support. That said, they deal more than enough damage to progress through Chaos Dungeons or Towers on their own.
