Best Skiller Rotation

Let's take a closer look at your best killer rotation and we will explain why we use the skills that we do and in which specific order, so arcanist uses cards as her normal attacks, and when she does damage and fills her identity mirror, she will draw cards from her deck and depending on what type of card she uses she will get unique buffs for a short amount of time. 

So arcanist in general has three types of skills, yellow skills will fill your identity meter a lot quicker, so you get to use your cards a lot more often. Then the blue skills will stack on the enemies which can stack up to 4 times and you will usually want to use them. So then afterwards you can use the red skills and do big damage. Lastly, we have the red skills, these are your main damage dealers, so the red skills will remove the stacks that you got from the blue skills and depending on your stocks they will do huge amount of damage.


Here are the top 2 best rotations: 

1. We started with the unlimited shuffle because this is an easy spell that if you land your shot, you will be able to launch the enemy in the air, so then afterwards we use the dark resurrection which will increase our damage by 25% and summon a demon that will poison the enemy. Then we use the scratch dealer to catch up to the enemy and deal damage again. Right after we use the dancing of the spine flower which will increase our crate rate damage up to 75%. Finish it off with the stream of edge will deal big aoe damage, they are countess overall is really good at catching enemies and then doing bunch of damage. 



2. Start with a spiral edge which is a simple mobility spell to catch up to the enemy. Right after we use the celestial reign and stagger the enemy while receiving 25% outgoing damage buff, then we use the call of destiny to launch the enemy in the air. Then use the scratch dealer to do damage and lastly finish it off with the unlimited shuffle which is a big aov skill. So overall the second rotation is meant more for staggering the enemies and allowing your teammates to finish them off. These rotations are the best but most skills and have you use them will depend on your enemies and what they do. So learn what each ability does and with time. You won't have to follow just few rotations but you will be able to use skills depending on the fight.

Lastly, as for using identity skill, read each card's description and depending on which one you get, you want to use it in different times. Use the fortune card to reset the awakening for the second time, then for the skull, twisted fate and emperor card, you won't use them right after you act with the dark resurrection. For the other cards, use them right away whenever you jot a card because this build uses a lot of yellow skills, so you will get to use 3 to 4 cards in each rotation. So for you not to block the previous good cards, you want to use them as soon as possible.

This class is very strong because she has really good zoning and catching skills, so you don't have to always follow up your enemies with engages and damage, but a lot of times you can just leave your enemies to your teammates then as well few of your abilities are charging skills. So never just quickly use one skill and then move over to the next one, but instead you want to hold most of your abilities to the maximum or the highest damage possible, but only if the enemy is on the ground or in the air and then lastly remember that your abilities have very good stagger, so you should be stunning your enemies 24 7.
