How to play:
The Bloody Striker needs to be quick and mobile, hard hitting and not afraid to take some risks. You need to buff, strike, increase distance and repeat from strike.
Before Combat:
Activate Boundless Storm, Critical Surge, Shuffle and Evil Hunter to increase your weapon damage, movement speed and self-heal.
Make sure you charged your ultimate(s) and ate or drank your food/drink before going into combat.
During Combat:
Close the distance to your opponent using Critical Rush and start hitting your opponent with Wrecking Blow and your ultimate.
Keep hitting your opponent while you circle around your opponent. Vary your movement by changing from clockwise to anti-closewise or by increasing the distance of your opponent and by closing the distance using Critical Rush or Streak (also stuns).
Once your opponent reaches 25%-ish Health use Executioner to finish your opponent.
Engaging Multiple Opponents
Engaging groups on your own is never smart. But if you are facing such a group you want to pick out those in the back first. Move around the group and get to their back (the opposite side of where the group is moving to) and use Critical Rush to engage. You can also move alongside or follow the enemy group using Steel Tornado. Dealing massive damage to their rear group members.
If an enemy group loses momentum, use your ultimates and use Streak to stun most of their group members.
In all situations:
Remember to:
1. Strike
2. Increase distance
3. Repeat.
Resource Management:
If you lose a lot of Health yourself try to disengage (increase distance) and use Resolving Vigor.
If you run out of Stamina use a potion. Usually you use a potion when you reach about 50-40% Stamina remaining.
How is damage done:
There are three ways of damage you will be doing with this build.
1. Burst damage: Wrecking Blow, Critical Rush and Executioner will hit your opponents hard.
2. AoE damage: Boundless Storm and Steel Tornado will do great damage against multiple targets.
3. DoT: By hitting your opponents with axes you will do massive bleeding damage.
