Practical notes
The Deadeye is a projectile ascendancy strong with bow and wand builds, granting tailwind and chain benefits. Build around a skill that chains or pierces, and stack projectile speed for clear.
Her far-shot and ailment bonuses reward distance management, so keep space from melee. Use tailwind to scale damage as you move through a pack. A Deadeye excels in mapping where her clear speed and range dominate.
Respec into more projectile speed if packs feel sticky, because the Deadeye’s clear depends on arrows reaching every target quickly.
Socket tailwind supports on your main link, because the Deadeye damage scales directly with the speed she builds by moving.
