Crystal Weapon question...again. (pve)

Simply...how does one use it? Having never really bothered with the Psyjic one is it:
Use/apply skill, LA, use/apply skill, LA......or do you use/apply skill and let it tick down, I have noticed a 4 secs counter/CD?
To me, I am thinking its use then LA and repeat but not really sure. Anyone use this that much or not bother?

You cast and then attack and repeat weaving. I don't think no matter how robotic your timing that you will have 100% fluid weaving with it. There seems to be random delays. I can easily weave every other ability except this one. It is a great hard hitting skill, however it could use a shortened animation and less clunky timing Best of luck!

Best way I’ve come up with to explain is think of it like a heart beat and weave it with that pattern. Keep in mind the 1 second global cool down on light attacks. That means your “heart beats” cannot be faster than 60bpm (beats per minute) and weave LA-skill in that pattern. My suggestion is to download a metronome app to practice and set it to around 50bpm to start. Each time the metronome makes a sound (beep, tick, click depending on settings) you will be hitting your LA followed by skill, then pause until the next sound. Gradually increase your speed as you get more comfortable and my suggestion is don’t ever go past 56bpm because you start flirting with GCD and your LA’s may not fire.

This skill is easier to weave with a bow and the magicka morph for mag toons because the targeting is much more forgiving at range. If your cursor is off the mark slightly your attacks will still hit but if you are in melee range and your cursor is off the target by a few pixels your LA may not land. That’s the more difficult part especially in mobile fights.

Anyway try practicing as I have written above. The LA inputs should be no different than you are doing them now, it’s the skill inputs that change slightly from what you are probably used to.
