Warlock (PVE Skill Rotation) by Azureliz | Trinity Order

Hi guys,

For Warlocks, we get a skill called Dragon Call at the start.
High damage, but must stand still on spot. Survival becomes a problem in boss fight.
Mobile version of this skill requires Hongmoon skills, super expensive to bid, hard to come by.

Personally, i use Dragon Helix. No need for Hongmoon Skills, has great mobility, combined with bombardment gives good DPS.

The rotation below is referenced from Ashley Ng's PVE warlock skill rotation.

I made modifications to it to be able to absorb HP while dealing damage and also, (upon getting soulburn skill) intercept the rotation to get 2 more additional rounds of combos.
(You don't need to be max level to use these skills, as kill comes along the way, you'll be able to use them quite early)

First watch Ashley's video to get a good idea of how it works. (Skill tree is included bnstree.com/WL/Nk1xnEbig
 )
Watch Ashley Rotation Video:






If you like to balance out with a little bit of HP Absorption skills, you can view my modified skill tree:

Now lets go through this step by step.


First, lets break the ROTATION apart and look at it in smaller parts.

There are 3 parts as highlighted in bold below.

Combo Reset are skill button V, skill button 3, Skill button F

Combo Starter always skill button V (Wingstorm)

Combo Chain use skill button 4 helix and at the same time, right click 3 times quickly for bomboardment as fast as you can. Entire set repeated 3 times in total.
Note: Right click is also known as right button represented by RB in short
Full chain sequence:  ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB )
If during the chain sequence your focus drops too low, change one of the RB to left click to regain focus.

Understanding the above, lets start with the actual rotation:
(All commands below are base on skill button)


Full Rotation is:

Rotation 1:
V ,  ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB )

Rotation 2:
3 ,  ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (Note the skill button 3 requires you to land 5 hits while staying at same spot before you can start the chain combo)

Rotation 3: 
F ,  ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (At times when blue F siphon skill does not appear, using Right click bombardment when critical hit will make it reappear)

Above is basic PVE combo without thrall having to soul burn. However, if you have thrall with soul burn skills, you can do the following:


Rotation 1:
V , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB )
(launch thrall now after first rotation completes)

Rotation 2:
3 , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (Note the skill button 3 requires you to land 5 hits while staying at same spot before you can start the chain combo)

Rotation 3:
F , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (At times when blue F siphon skill does not appear, using Right click bombardment when critical hit will make it reappear)
(activate soul burn from thrall when this third rotation completes which resets Wingstorm V skill and Imprison button 3 skill allowing you to add more rotations)
 
Rotation 4:
V , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB )

Rotation 5:
3 , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (Note the skill button 3 requires you to land 5 hits while staying at same spot before you can start the chain combo)
and by the time you hit rotation 5, due to 3 skill, you will be able to reset wing storm once more.

Rotation 6:
V , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB )

Rotation 7:
F , ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) ( 4 , RB, RB, RB ) (At times when blue F siphon skill does not appear, using Right click bombardment when critical hit will make it reappear)


So above is the new update to this thread where I reference to the 3 rotation of Ashley, modify it to absorb HP and increase it to 7 rotation with thrall soul burn. by 7th rotation, almost all monsters would have been dead. In fact, if some timing gets delayed here and there, it goes beyond 7 reaching 8 and 9 rotations too.

With careful use of iframe, S+S skill, keeping distance with knock downs and trap skills and knowing when to engage frontal absorbing HP at maximum rate, you'll be able to survive quite well.


So hope this guide helps.

Good luck.
