Dori's PvE Chanter setup from Krix Domi's channel. She says up front she has no Chanter rank: "my competition is out of my level, but I'll help you get there."

1. Skills and Specialties

Read off her Skill window. Levels are hers.

SkillLevelSpecialties she runs
Dark Crush21Critical Hit on hit. Adds [Piercing Strike] Chain Skill. Removes [Dark Crush] cooldown. At 16: cooldown and Critical Hit, without the chain
Onslaught (left click)20+50% Multi-Hit on hit. -1s [Spinning Strike] cooldown on hit. Adds [Storm Chain] Chain Skill
Spinning Strike20-5s cooldown. Up to +20% damage when fewer targets are hit. Ignores Block and Evasion and lands as a Critical Hit. At 16 without the damage line
Rushing Smash1350% chance to trigger [Heat Wave Blow]. Resets cooldown on defeating an enemy. 12 is enough for the reset: Abyss, open world, daily dungeons, Abyss corridors
Impactful Crush16Changes to mobile skill. +30% Skill Speed. It also makes Dark Crush available for 2 s
Recuperation15+1 consecutive use, more healing and HP
Tremor Crush13+10m [Tremor Crush] range. Only to move when Rushing Smash is on cooldown
Defiance8Restores 10% HP on using [Defiance]

Wave Blow is for PvP only.

Passives

  1. Wind's Promise: the main damage passive.
  2. Impact Hit: Double Chance.
  3. Attack Preparation: PvE and PvP damage.

Put all three on your legs and cloak. On earrings too. On the other armour pieces, where other lines matter more, keep at least Wind's Promise.

2. Macro and settings

  • Copy the macro from the video, it is short.
  • Settings > Key Settings > General: macro on right click. Combat: Skill queue on.
  • Press your shield buff and cooldown buff, start with Q, then hold left and right click.
  • Asked whether a stigma can go in the macro: "You can, put it in extra slot on the bar and add that bar in the macro setting."
  • If the macro stops after you hold it for a very long time (over 3 minutes): press left and right click again.

3. Stigmas

  • Usual setup: Marchutan's Wrath, Power of the Storm, Guardian Blessing and a damage mantra.
  • Guardian Blessing only once you can take it to 15: it multiplies Wind's Promise by 1.5 for the duration ("If my Wind's Promise were at +24, I'd simply raise it to 36"). It also gives HP.
  • Power of the Storm 20: -30s cooldown, +200 Accuracy, +200 Critical Hit, and party Combat Speed, Accuracy, Critical Hit, Attack and cooldowns.
  • Hard content (Ludra Hard): Focused Defense in, because some boss attacks kill in one hit.
  • Sprint Mantra is the less selfish choice: less damage for you, healing and stamina for the party.

4. Gear, Daevanion, Genus

  • Rings: Attack, Might, Dark Crush, Rushing Smash and Spinning Strike. "14 is already only by deavanion board. Another +2 you can get on the rings. Rest is in Arcana cards."
  • Daevanion: every needed skill and passive node, then all the Attack and Critical Hit she could afford. On the Ariel board: Boss Damage in the blue slots, and PvE Damage Tolerance in the lower slots for Ludra Hard.
  • Pets: as many Cogni pets at level 3 as you can, they give Might each.
  • Genus slot 4: Cogni PvE Damage Boost or Critical Damage Boost. Fera PvE Damage Boost or Weapon Damage Boost. Varian PvE Damage Boost. Double Chance "the best statistic in the game" where it can roll. Slots 1 and 5 Attack Bonus everywhere.

5. Titles and wings

  • Titles: Unbound by Genus, Empty Closet and Saint of Altgard, until Dominator of Dimensions (25 wings).
  • Wings: Dark Veil Wings now, Talisra Wings (210,000 season coins, 4% cooldown reduction) as the goal.
