Ability

What It Does

Stealth

She goes invisible between combat. Lets you skip packs without her yanking aggro on the way. Finally.

Rupture

Physical DoT over 24 sec. Background bleed that just keeps ticking while she does other things.

Masterful Feint

Big AoE damage reduction. Makes Valeera dramatically less squishy during pull spam. Passive-ish.

Fan of Knives

AoE Physical damage around her. She casts this constantly. You will hear it in your sleep.

Blood Contract

Marks a random enemy for death for 1 min. Killing it procs Paid in Blood — a Primary Stat buff for Valeera and all allies for 20 sec. Important on pulls with multiple elites.

Tools of the Trade

Bonus gold, ore, herbs, fish, leathers, and treasures. Also triggers the Mandate of Sacred Death curio if equipped. Why yes, she is also your gatherer.

Killing Spree

She dashes through shadows hitting multiple enemies for significant Physical damage. Her big burst button.

Ability

What It Does

Unrelenting

Recharges Fan of Knives, Rupture, and Killing Spree 30% faster. Meaningfully more DPS per pack.

Dagger to the Throat

Interrupt + 5 sec silence on a 12 sec CD. Actually useful on caster packs. Yes, even you, caster DPS who thinks you don't need help.

Poison of the Forgotten Master

+5% damage stacking every 3 sec in combat, up to 5 stacks. Falls off if anyone takes a hit. Keep it topped off for big pulls.

Cheap Shot

Physical damage + 10 sec stun on a 40 sec CD. Use it on elites. Stun is a stun.

Jagged Caltrops

Poison AoE on a 30 sec CD. Nature damage ground effect. Nice for kiting situations you weren't supposed to be in.

No Witnesses

+20% Haste buff for 15 sec. CD resets on kill. Space out kills to keep it rolling the entire delve. This is the ability that makes Valeera feel fast.

Uncrowned's Bloody Ledger (passive)

+5% damage per spell/ability, scales with each level. 50 ranks. Your primary scaling stat as DPS.

Ability

What It Does

Vampiric Reaping

Stabs an enemy, drains life force, spawns Blood Orbs on the ground. Picking them up heals you + applies a stacking HoT. Collect orbs before the HoT falls off to carry the stack forward. This is your main source of survival as a Healer-Valeera user.

Shadow Veil

Dispel harmful magical effects on an ally. 8 sec CD. More valuable in Midnight than ever given the expansion's magic-heavy enemies.

Soulthirst Venom

+10% Leech, Avoidance, and Speed to allies' weapons. Passive survivability that stacks cleanly with your own defensives.

Cheap Shot

Still there. Still a 10 sec stun. She does try to kill things occasionally.

Crimson Vial Fumes

Healing vapor cloud on the ground. Stand in it. Revolutionary technology.

Uncrowned's Alchemical Codex (passive)

+65% increased healing from her spells. 50 ranks. Scales per level. This is why Healer Valeera becomes more useful as you level her up.

Ability

What It Does

Your First Mistake

Taunt + high Physical DoT for 16 sec every 2 sec. Her main tank ability. The name is directed at the enemy. Or at you for pulling this many mobs.

Scar of Kathra'natir

Attacks against her deal 20% less damage, converted to a short DoT. Occasionally spawns an Echo of Kathra'natir — kill it and she heals 6% max HP/sec for 5 sec. Weird mechanic. Works.

Dagger to the Throat

Interrupt + silence. Tanks need interrupts. Check.

Bloodcrypt Toxin

Enemies struck take 10% less damage and have -10% Haste for 20 sec. A meaningful debuff on elites.

Attack from the Shadows

Shadowsteps in, triggers Fan of Knives, taunts all enemies within 12 yards. 20 sec CD. Her AoE taunt. This is good.

Blood-Stained Blades

Healing received increases her damage by 8% per stack. The more she gets hit and healed, the harder she hits back. Poetic.

Uncrowned's Playbook of Subterfuge (passive)

+30% max HP and +30% healing received. 50 ranks. This is why Tank Valeera doesn't immediately explode at Tier 5+.

Your Spec Type

Valeera Role

Why

Tank (Blood DK, Prot Paladin, etc.)

DPS

You have survivability. You lack execution damage on elites. Let her murder specific targets while you hold everything.

DPS (Mage, Hunter, Rogue, etc.)

HEALER

Vampiric Reaping orbs keep you topped off without stopping to eat. Stay offensive. Don't stop killing.

Healer (Resto Druid, Holy Priest, etc.)

DPS

You can keep yourself alive. You need someone to actually kill things within this century.

Curio

Effect

Verdict

Sanctum's Edict

Valeera gains Blessings from kills and combat (Elites: +10, normals: +2). Each Blessing: +1% damage/healing. At 30 stacks, converts 60% current HP into an absorb shield. Shield increases bonus potency.

Best all-around. It's damage AND survivability. Take this unless you're actively dying.

Overflowing Voidspire

After 25 sec of combat, +18% damage and healing for 35 sec. 35 sec CD.

Excellent on long pulls. Useless if your pulls are short. Know your route.

Mantle of Stars

When any ally drops below 40% HP: absorb shield for 50% max HP, knockup nearby enemies, +25% damage taken by those enemies for 12 sec. 2 min CD.

Defensive panic button. If you're dying on tier entry, equip this, fix your tier, then swap later.

Ebon Crown of Subjugation

Opening a Mislaid Curiosity summons a Subjugated Burden. +2% Primary Stat each (up to 12). Bonus increases after 6+ Burdens.

Consistent Primary Stat if you open Curiosities. Pairs well with Mandate of Sacred Death (utility).

Holy Bounding Hand Grenade

Chance to toss a Holy grenade during combat, 50% stun for 1.5 sec, 40% bounce to a new target. Cannot bounce to you. Somehow.

Situationally funny. Functionally decent CC support. Named by someone who was clearly having a good day.

Mandate of Sacred Death

Tools of the Trade triggers a Sacred Mandate: 8% chance per harmful spell to deal 2% target max HP as Holy damage. Small chance to execute non-boss enemies. Once per 2 sec.

Good if you open lots of Curiosities. The passive execute is a surprisingly useful bonus on trash.

Motionless Nulltide

Standing still in combat stacks Cosmic Momentum (up to 20). At 20 stacks, jump to consume: +2% Haste per stack for 20 sec + knockup nearby enemies. CD: 20 sec.

Great for turret specs who don't move anyway. Melee specs will hate this and should.

Time Lost Edict

Chance to create a sanctified area: +20% move speed, cooldown recharge, and cast speed for allies inside; opposite for enemies. Lasts 12 sec.

Incredible when it procs during a big pull. Infuriating when it procs on a 2-mob pack you've already killed.
