How to use Jumpfish build
This build revolves around constant movement and repositioning. Use Slicing Winds to dash through enemies, applying Toxic Smackerel as you pass. Immediately reposition with Quaking Leap to avoid retaliation.
Keep an eye on your Toxic Smackerel stacks on enemies. When they start to fall off, dash back in with Slicing Winds to refresh them. The goal is to keep the damage ticking on as many enemies as possible while staying elusive.
If an enemy tries to engage on you with a key ability, use Lightning Bulwark to negate it and create an opening for a counterattack. The shield can also buy you time to reposition if you find yourself in a bad spot.
In team fights, focus on darting between enemies and applying Toxic Smackerel rather than trying to burst down a single target. Your constant movement and damage over time will force enemies to choose between chasing you or focusing on your teammates.
When facing ranged opponents, use your mobility to close the distance and apply pressure. Against melee opponents, kite them around and whittle them down with Toxic Smackerel. If they commit to chasing you, punish them with a quick Slicing Winds into Quaking Leap combo.
