Taoist skill advice

[pheonix65]

I'm a level143 Taoist, and we have an abundance on skills to choose from. More than I have easy accessable key bindings for

I've got a rotation that I use but I doubt it is most efficient for pve, I'm overlooking a wide range of spells I could be using if it's worth it, are there any taos out there that can offer advice on what skills they use, and those which are primarily for PvP.

Thanks

You can assign spells to shift and ctrl giving u 24 useable spells.
Start by assigning shift and ctrl to the thumb buttons on ur mouse and get to grips with this.

Use toxic gas for lvling until you get plague. Lvl all ur spells. Ur need most of them. Some spells use different damages (dark fire ice etc) all mobs in all caves have different resistances to these offensive spells so u need different spells for different mobs in different caves. Toxic gas is great for lvling though. Use confuse on mobs that are ur lvl or lower. This makes mobs leave you and attack other mobs. I like to get a lure confuse a load of them then smash with pets and toxic gas and or plague

My idea is to lure, toxic gas then thousands word them to death using all my pets on assist to create a wall.

This being said though it only uses a small handful of skills, are things like lowerfireandice worthwhile or repent on pve mobs?

I got all my buffs on the shift keys and pets on the ctrl keys. So now I just need to fine tube what I use when leveling

Yeah the buff/debuff skills are all good, very useful.

I like to think about skills that I use repeatedly multiple times in a row, such as attack skills and heal etc on my main F keys for convenience so I only need to hold down 1 button

For things that don't need to be done repeatedly like buffs, pet spawns etc., I put on ctrl and shift rows

The amount of things you need to assign does get a bit overwhelming but that does get better I promise! UltimateEnhancer replaces multiple buff spells which saves you a few F keys and really helps streamline your hunt!

If you can find somewhere with cliffs, that can be good to lure mobs to, rather than relying on your pets to tank for you. Both ways are valid, just depends on how many mobs you're pulling at a time
