I've calculated dmg from 1 barrage in the max dps output and it's a freaking 1105.5/second without taking inconsideration her base attack power and buffs from breaking point or bonesaw...so pretty nice if I say so myself

Would love to know the thoughts on the following build.
Sorrowblade,Breaking point, Tornado trigger, Serpents Mask, Boots, Aegis. (Drop Tornado trigger for metal jacket if needed)

hmm.. Actually breaking point relies on other WP items to scale. Getting it too early may lower your dps during the mid-game (also BP doesn't give us any crit). Tornado Trigger may seem like it gives good dps, but actually Tyrants Monocle benefits her Forward Barrage most (more WP+crit%). An alternative to my build could be SB, TM, TT, SM, BOOT, DEF. I don't recommend too many defense items on Skye because you will cripple your own damage output by too much. Getting an earlier infusion can be another option if you find yourself needing that extra defense during teamfights.

Between this guide and watching some videos online, I definitely feel good about spending ice to purchase skye. Thanks for writing this. WP skye is def fun to play. Been plenty of games where I have wrecked their whole team in a 3v3. Good support is key! I find she is paired best with ardan and his circle shield thing. Keeps them all nice and contained. Like shooting fish in a barrel.

Ahh, this build can shine even more than before with the 1.14 update patch thing. xD. Love the tyrants monocle first so you can have even more crit than what you already get. Definitely excited to get my hands on WP Skye very soon.

Thanks for continuing to update this build. Has been one of my favorites since you created it. From beginner to advanced user. It covers it well.

This is a great guide for WP lovers, however, I feel that there needs to be a little more defense because skye will die in a few quick moments to a lane carry like ringo. I suggest a crucible and a counter for defense along with The SB, SM, and BP. Just my feedback.


Thanks for the feedback! I am continually testing this build almost everyday (w/ and w/o defense) and i find that Skye really needs to take her opponents down faster. Your team depends on your damage capacity! Spending valuable gold on defense she delays those crucial damage items. Anyway, she doesn't have much success in tanking fights even with 2 defense items. Her greatest asset is movement speed and agility. We must use that as our best form of 'defense'. Having said this, NEVER ENGAGE FIRST. Let your buddies go in and take the heat. When enemy is looking for you (trust me they will hunt you first) but can't find you they tend to settle for your allies instead, that is when you should go in and gun them down. If they change targets to chase you, this is where all that stutterstep + kiting practice shines most. I found that barbed needle/serpent mask gives you just enough sustain to stay in a fight without deviating away from +damage items too much.

PS: Against that Ringo, let him reveal his position first (he usually hangs back) and drop an ulti on him before going for him. Full damage Ringo is more squishy than Skye. He will blow up faster lol.

Let me know what you think! :)

After 5+ games of being spammed question marks and sarcastic smiles, I finally got a beer emote :D thanks, this guide is really good for WP Skye

P.s, versus Celeste, you might want to put using sure strike to get behind Celestial to screw her ult :D


Glad this build is working out for you! There's nothing more fustrating to a Celeste player than a dancing WP Skye :p
