Stat Priority

Skill Damage25% (Shard) + 20% (Robes) + 15% (Mantle)

Adds to ~60% multiplicative Skill Damage.

Cast Speed20%

Long cast animations are the build's biggest weakness; this is the mitigation.

Mana Pool+30% (Robes)

Sustained wave clear requires uptime, not burst.

Movement Speed10%

Verden casting locks you in place; mobility is your only dodge.

Rotation Plan

  1. Open with Shard Volley from max range to pull the swarm.
  2. Drop a Frost Rune on the cluster's center to slow them.
  3. Channel Verden Nova during the slow window.
  4. Use mobility between casts - never stand in the same place for two casts.
  5. Save the ultimate for the Dragon's Grave wave 11+ boss.
