Default Duchess

Duchess is a glass cannon who wields the smallest blade but packs some of the highest damage potential in the game. With high Dexterity and Intelligence scaling, she excels at fast dagger strikes, sorceries, and her signature **Restage** ability that repeats damage dealt in the last few seconds. Her playstyle revolves around speed and precision—using her **Restage** ability to amplify big hits from you and your co-op companions, while leveraging her fast attack speed to build status effects and chain attacks. This build is based upon **Base Physical DPS** and adds specific weights for Duchess in order to quantify the increase in DPS. All weights from the base build are automatically applied as well. ### Assumptions: * `Improved Character Skill Attack Power` increases the **Restage** damage by 20%. This is scaled down with the assumption that 25% of damage output comes from **Restage**. * Similarly, skill cooldown reductions are considered with 40% of their increase, as the skill can not always be kept on cooldown. * A **Restage** triggered by dagger chain is assumed to occur in 15% of cases. * `3+ Dagger Equipped` is always achievable and mandatory. * Damage increase by Dexterity depends on the level and should be even lower for high levels. * This build is purely focusing on daggers and does not include any sorceries, which can be viable as well.
