Guide to Wingrave Affinity
By Wavuvi
All of his combo finishers revolve around landing combo finishers/eagle eye.
S&S can get to a combo finisher in 2 hits (light or heavy attack -> hold heavy attack); this also rests the cooldown on righteous strike. So Wingrave can constantly trigger his affinity bonuses with S&S.
2h weapons are decent, with Scythes being the most consistent because of speed and lower damage, since the combo finisher has to actually hit an enemy to trigger.
Daggers and Guns take considerably longer.
I bring this up because what you get from a combo finisher is how to decide what affinity to use.
25 in instinct for healing. Great for a tanky/support build. This may not be enough on a full offense build to save you from needing a potion, however.
15 in Discipline is always a strong pick because it gets abilities back faster (mostly radiant pulse).
15 in focus is the only direct damage buff in his affinity, so weapons like Daggers and Guns especially like this one.
These 3 are the highlight affinity perks for him.
On the chance you don’t bother with combo finishers or just don’t care about any perf effects, then go down which ever line boosts the stats you want: usually Weapon Power.
2h weapon builds on him tend to never go for combo finishers since block cancelling is safer and better dps, so affinities are just used for extra stats.
