Mastering the Combo System

The real strength of Tempest Flurry lies in its combo mechanics. The skill operates on a multi-strike system where using it in quick succession enhances your effectiveness. The third use hits thrice, while the fourth delivers a devastating Final Strike. This means timing is everything.

To maximize damage output, practice your rhythm! Spam it too quickly, and you’ll feel like you’re slapping enemies instead of striking them. Space your attacks just right, and you’ll unleash a flurry that leaves nothing but ashes behind. Remember, patience is key. Don't be that guy who mashes the button and ends up looking like a noob!

Synergies with Support Gems

Support gems can make or break your Tempest Flurry setup. For instance, pairing it with "Martial Tempo" not only boosts its speed but makes your attacks feel like they’re coming from a lightning bolt itself. Additionally, consider "Crescendo" to amplify the damage on your final hit.

Don’t overlook the power of "Bullseye" and "Lightning Exposure" for that extra oomph. These support gems enhance your lightning damage capabilities, ensuring that each strike of Tempest Flurry is as shocking as it gets. Balance your damage sources and watch as your enemies crumble under the relentless assault!

Strategic Positioning and Playstyle

When using Tempest Flurry, positioning is vital. You want to be in close range to maximize your hit potential while avoiding AoE attacks from enemies.

Utilize movement skills or even defensive skills like "Blink" to weave in and out of danger while maintaining your assault. A good player knows when to go all in and when to back off. Be wary of overextending! The power of Tempest Flurry can be intoxicating, but don’t let it blind you. Be smart, and let your strikes hit like thunder, not like a drunken toddler with a toy hammer.
