Daggers — Burst
Choose an isolated target, approach through stealth, use the short damage and energy window, then disengage. The build fails when the first entry becomes an endless chase.
BUILD STARTER
Mistfall Hunter Shadowstrix Build
Choose Daggers for stealth Burst or repeated Shadow Veil re-entry. Choose Dual Blades for Wound Burst or sustained Damage Stacking. Learn one job before attempting a hybrid.

VERIFIED WEAPONS
Four Ways to Apply Pressure
Daggers — Shadow Veil
Attack, reposition, return to stealth, and choose a new angle. Re-entry is the main job. Stealth changes how the opponent tracks the approach; it is not a promise of invulnerability.
Dual Blades — Wound Burst
Stay close long enough to build Wound, choose the detonation window, then leave before the opponent’s control or escape turns the trade. Repeated contact matters more than one title-screen number.
Dual Blades — Damage Stacking
Keep the hit sequence alive only while the target remains reachable. When the chain breaks, reset position instead of sacrificing every defensive tool to preserve a stack.
A hybrid can use one weapon for entry or reset and the other for sustained pressure, but launch rules make weapon-specific damage bonuses work only while holding the matching weapon. Hybrid play therefore adds weapon-state, cooldown, energy, stealth, and wound management.
PRACTICAL LOOP
Enter With an Exit
Before moving, identify the target, the first control threat, and the route back to cover. Enter after the target is isolated or a teammate creates a control window. Perform the chosen short job—burst, re-entry, wound, or stacking—then leave when the opener fails. In a trio, the second entry is often safer than volunteering to absorb the first focus fire.
PvE and PvP require separate testing. A boss may allow long contact but ignore part of a control chain; a player can dodge, break away, use terrain, or counter-control. Do not use one training target to prove every mode.
