Against WD best build I have found to work is
Smoke screen -- lingering fog -- Of course
Fan of Knives -- Extended radius rune
Vault -- Tumble
Preparation -- Battle Scars
Bola Shot -- Imminent Doom -- hit his pets with it from far away and watch him take dmg and force him to spirit walk to avoid dmg
Impale -- Chemical Burn
Passives
Tactical Advantage + Perfectionist + Thrill of the hunt
After the WD wastes spirit walk run towards him smoke screen FoK before any impales make sure you get him with the stun then impale him once or twice and GTFO if you stay too long and he manages to haunt you well try to mitigate it with ss + Preparation if necessary. Rinse and repeat until you get some crits -- it always helps to get some bola shots in to make em waste skills/pots etc as well as do some initial dmg and make em move from a relatively safe area. Gotta ninja him its very hard to take on a good WD head on you will lose most face to face exchanges -- specially against ones with 130k+ hp and high regen/resists.
switch perfectionist for sharpshooter ASAP
build i take for WD
Hatred gen option 1* Bola shot - Volatile explosives - find the range helps a lot to clear pets + keep damaging WD + its only a 1 sec wait imminent seems less effective to me
Hatred gen option 2* Evasive fire - surge - usually take this vs zombie dog wd's ; 2 discipline for a vault that triggers tactical advantage great to use this to run away from dogs and pop an impale on the wd
impale - chemical burn - this skill has insane dmg! using sharpshooter with this gives you 100% crit and with chemical burns it is highly likely u will 1 hit a lot of WD!
smoke screen - lingering fog - obvious reasons i probably dont need to tell you!
companion - Boar - meat shield which gives u life regen + res
preparation - battle scars - wait until you have been haunted to low life and then use it to refill lfie + discipline a must have skill for pvp!
Sentry - guardian turret - i love this skill it is very effective at reducing rend and haunt dmg - get hit by a rend or haunt crit? pop one of these and sit in it smokecreening till its over!
Passives
Tactical advantage - getaway skill with smoke screen and used for hit and run
archery - more dps!
if u find your 1 hitting then switch for brooding or perfectionist
sharpshooter - guaranteed crit asfter a few seconds a real must in pvp
Your main aim is to kill the WD ASAP these duels are always over quick so try get them impales in quick and avoid the haunts / spirit barrage, if he uses a zoo then use bola until u can get a clear view to hit the wd with an impale.
You want to hit and run constantly dont go toe to toe as although u may kill the WD he will probably kill you aswell with a haunt crit
whenever u have a haunt cast on you pop a guardian turret and try dps wd as much as possible.
WD always run so the main thing is to know there lcoation on the battlefield and ambush with impales
Make sure your boar is recast as soon as he dies he will save your life by taking that haunt crit!
Don! i like the idea of fan of knives and thrill of the hunt, willl try them next time i duel a WD
