Ive been trying to solo that level 50 boss for the clan raid this weekend but my damage is garbage.
I saw reddit posts saying max out shadow dance but then this discord guide claims bleed strike is way better for dps and now im just confused. Which skills actually scale best for an openclaw build?
Bleed Strike works best for raids, honestly.
Building on the earlier suggestion, I actually think focusing strictly on those high-tier bleed skills might be why youre hitting a wall. If youre on a budget or just trying to save some in-game gold, honestly, Ravage is the way to go. Most people overlook it because it isnt flashy, but the energy-to-damage ratio is insane for soloing. It lets you stay mobile without burning through your mana pots like crazy. Ngl, having a decent mouse helps with the timing too. You dont need to spend 100 bucks tho... Ive been using the Redragon M601-3 RGB Centrophorus 7200 DPI for months and its a total steal for the price. It handles those fast assassin rotations just fine. Just focus on Ravage and maybe some passive crit buffs and youll see that boss health bar melt way faster without going broke.

I had high hopes for the Shadow Dance meta when I first tried it, but it was a total letdown in actual raids because of the animation locking. It's really frustrating when you follow a build and your DPS still feels like garbage because you're getting knocked out of your combos. If you want a safer and more reliable setup for that level 50 boss, you might want to pivot slightly to skills that scale without leaving you vulnerable:
