Fresh Air Power Tempest

October 2024

Introduction

Fresh Air Tempest is an easy build to learn, but it has a high skill ceiling to achieve maximum DPS. This is a very fast-paced build due to low cast times on your damaging skills besides Overload Air.

For the version of this build:

Fresh Air Power Alacrity Tempest

Offensive Support

Select difficulty

Scepter & Warhorn

Build Fundamentals

Your main damage sources are Overload Air and Lightning Storm, which benefit from Fresh Air and Transcendent Tempest.

In short, cast Overload Air as much as possible. At the end of this skill, swap Attunements, activate Fresh Air, and go back to Air Attunement to Overload again.

TIP: It’s important to remember that you can attunement swap while casting weapon skills without cancelling your skill.
