Stats
Prioritize gear with Crit and Specialization for extra damage and clear speed while leveling. Swiftness is good to have but Endurance, Domination, and Expertise are useless stats.
Skills
Skills can be reset at any time at no cost. Prioritize skill points towards skills that let you clear mobs of monsters as quickly as possible on a low cooldown. Here are the most important skills.
Important Skills

Charged Shot
- 3-1-1
- Good damage and decent AoE.
Sharp Shooter
- 1-3-1
- Single target burst damage for bosses but can be used to clear out mobs in a smaller area.
Arrow Wave
- 1-1-1
- High burst damage but smaller AoE. More useful for bosses but still okay at clearing mobs.
Claymore Mine
- 1-3-1
- Large AoE damage ability for clearing mobs.
Blade Storm
- 1 1 1
- Tripods can be switched to 3-2-1 as an alternative if you already have enough AoE clearing for mobs and have sufficient crit chance. Silver Master will provide more meter and Lightning Blade will provide a ton of damage once you have sufficient crit chance.

Moving Slash
