  2. looping, 10 ms

Why this macro, step by step

호빵's single line (Inven 3478, Sep 21) held Exploding Fist, Ascending Blow, Chain Fist and Roundhouse. Since Nov 11, Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist are only worth it under “투기” (+150% PvE) and come back after each block: Korean players take them out of the macro and keep just a filler line (Inven 4133, 4324, 4333). Each Roundhouse hit still brings Chain Fist back.

  1. Chain Fist : Second damage source: guaranteed Crit in Rampage (spec 16, Aug 26) and +20% speed (spec 12). Since Nov 11 it leads the line: Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist have left it.
  2. Roundhouse : The loop's engine: in Rampage each hit takes 1 s (2 s with spec 16) off Chain Fist's cooldown. It fills every gap.
Keep it manual
  • Ferocity, Phantom, Pulverize and Surging Cleave: stack them by hand at the start of each Rampage; in the macro they would fire outside the window and be wasted (Inven 3239).
  • Typhoon Flurry: on its own key, held only during the boss's groggy; since Nov 11 spec 16 only takes 0.5 s off Mastery skills (NC).
  • Focused Block, then Sweeping Kick (“투기” for 3 s), then Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist, reset by the block at tier 15: the damage loop since Nov 11.
  • Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist: by hand, under “투기” (after Rampage, Sweeping Kick or Ground Smash); outside “투기”, Ascending Blow loses 36% PvE damage.
How to set it up in game

Since the Nov 11 rework: a single right-click line, Chain Fist then Roundhouse, skill reservation on, left click held; Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist leave the macro and are fired by hand under “투기” (Inven 4133, 4324, 4333). Typhoon Flurry on its own key.

  1. Open your skills (K), then the macro button at the top right.
  2. Add one step per blue key, in the order of the numbers: click its icon and pick the slot.
  3. Delay of each step: 10 ms.
  4. Settings, Keys, General, Skill macro: bind the key that holds it.

Why this bar
  • LMBFlurry : Held together with the macro: its hits cancel the end of skill animations (the “LB” cancel of Korean guides). Outside Rampage it is also your Rage source (+10 per hit).
  • RMBChain Fist › Roundhouse : Filler macro line since Nov 11: Chain Fist then Roundhouse; Ascending Blow and Exploding Fist have left the line (Inven 4133, 4324).
  • QSever Bloodstream › Sweeping Kick : Changed for your build: its Stigmas take the place of Focused Block, which the class template had.
  • EPhantom › Whirlwind : Changed for your build: its Stigmas take the place of Surging Cleave, which the class template had.
  • X1Typhoon Flurry : On a separate key, held only during the groggy: since Nov 11 spec 16 only takes 0.5 s off Mastery skills (it used to take 1 s off every cooldown).
  • X2Ascending Blow › Exploding Fist : Ascending Blow then Exploding Fist, by hand right after a “투기” source (Rampage, Sweeping Kick, Ground Smash): +150% PvE damage (NC, Nov 11; Inven 4324).
  • RRampage › Ferocity : Rampage then Ferocity on two neighbouring keys: under 100 Rage, Ferocity first (it fills the gauge) then Rampage; at 100 or more, Rampage first (DC Inside).
