How to use Kite 'n Poke build
Start fights at max range, poking with Mana Sphere and Rime Arrow. Use Rime Arrow to interrupt important abilities like Health Brew.
If enemies close the distance, use Fade to Shadow and Faeform to create space and continue kiting. Save your defensive cooldowns for when you need them most.
Focus on whittling opponents down from afar and only commit to a fight if you have a clear health advantage. If you get caught out of position, immediately use your escape tools to reposition.
In duos, stay on the backline and focus on consistently dealing damage. Help peel for your teammate with well-timed Rime Arrows.
Against melee opponents, kite them around obstacles and use your superior range to your advantage. Against ranged opponents, use your defensive tools to avoid their damage while returning fire.
