Required: Overwhelm
Next: To The Bone
Fleeting Strikes is an upgrade to the Flurry skill for Rapier users in New World. Fleeting Strikes belongs to the Blood Tree, which is focused primarily on dealing damage through Bleed effects. With this upgrade each hit of Flurry reduces the cooldown of this ability by 7%. Flurry can also be further upgraded with To The Bone.
Active Skills for the Rapier increase in efficiency with Dexterity as their Primary Attribute and Intelligence as their Secondary Attribute. Investing into either Attribute will increase the damage of your Rapier’s basic attacks and skills, though you will see a greater bonus for investing in Dexterity.
