Dexterity is your main DPS stat and a lot of the gear will need to be focused around this attribute. Your second priority is Wisdom as it increases your cooldown speed, mana regen and most importantly – maximum damage. While you will not have perfect stats from the start, your goal is to stack Critical Hit so that eventually you can rely on your Critical (boosted by Wisdom) and drop Perception almost completely (as Perception contributes to “Hit” which becomes less important if you have high enough Critical Hit). As you reach ~1000 Ranged Critical Hit, you can focus on Stacking Dexterity and Wisdom only with leftover points spent in Strength and Perception (whichever feels more beneficial).

This is where your Epic weapons come into play – you might feel that your build is lacking in certain areas (HP regen, Max Damage) until you get these weapons.

– Rex Chimaerus Rake Bow (crossbows) is a strong easy to get weapon with a passive that restores HP when you proc Off-Hand attack.

– Lequirus’ Thorny Edge (daggers) provide base damage increase upon using dagger mobility skills. It is relatively easy too get, but to unlock its full potential you would need to be weapon-swapping to daggers before leaping with your Shadow Strike.

– Rex Chimaerus Fang (daggers) is an amazing “stat-stick” that gives 8 Dexterity at base level and scales to 11 Dexterity (!) at lvl6. You don’t have to weapon-swap to benefit from this one but the downside is that it comes from a ping-based dungeon boss.
