The Pathfinder Ascendancy for the Ranger class focuses on flask manipulation, mobility, and poison damage. The Pathfinder’s ability to double the maximum number of poison stacks on an enemy solidifies it as the most powerful class for the poison archetype. Additionally, it has the ability to turn flask charges into damaging concoctions that explode upon impact with terrain or monsters.
游侠职业的追猎者升华专注于药剂操控、机动性和毒素伤害。追猎者能将敌人身上的毒素层数上限翻倍，使其稳坐毒素流派最强职业之位。此外，它还能将药剂充能转化为伤害性混合物，这些混合物在撞击地形或怪物时会爆炸。

Pathfinder Mechanics  追猎者机制

Here are some of the key mechanics available to the Pathfinder Ascendancy.
以下是探路者升华职业可用的关键机制。

Flaskfinder  药剂大师

• Normally, when you reach full health your Life Flask effect ends. Enduring Elixirs changes this, allowing it to continue until the duration is complete. Combine this with a high recovery Life Flask like Saturated Ultimate Life Flask of the Sylvan to gain a persistent health recovery effect.
  通常情况下，当生命值回满时效果就会终止。此改动允许效果持续至持续时间结束。搭配高恢复的生命药剂使用，可获得持续的生命恢复效果。
• This is most potent when combined with Life Flask nodes such as Hale Traveller and Heavy Drinker.
  当与生命药剂节点如”健步旅者”和”豪饮者”结合时效果最为显著。

Noxious Poisons  剧毒之袭

• Contagious Contamination spreads poisons to nearby enemies. This is similar to the effect from Herald of Plague. It’s great for spreading damage in tightly packed groups of enemies but is less effective when enemies spread out due to the limited area of effect.
  将毒素扩散至附近敌人。这与 的效果类似。对于密集的敌群能有效扩大伤害范围，但由于作用区域有限，当敌人分散时效果会减弱。
• You need to take this node to access Overwhelming Toxicity.
  你需要选择此节点才能解锁 。
• By default, you can inflict 1 poison on an enemy. Several nodes on the tree (Building Toxins, Stacking Toxins), the Comorbidity support and items like Snakebite allow you to increase this limit.
  默认情况下，你可以对敌人施加 1 层中毒效果。通过天赋树上的若干节点（如、）、辅助宝石以及等装备，你可以提高这个上限。
• Keep in mind, most of these effects come with a downside or opportunity cost. For example Comorbidity has 30% less poison duration and therefore requires you to reapply your poisons much more frequently / have a more active playstyle.
  请注意，大多数此类效果都伴随着负面影响或机会成本。例如拥有 30%更短的中毒持续时间，因此需要你更频繁地重新施加中毒效果/采用更主动的战斗风格。
• Overwhelming Toxicity doubles the number of poisons you can inflict, in exchange for lowering their duration. So if you could inflict 3 poisons on an enemy before, now you can inflict 6.
  使你所能施加的中毒效果数量翻倍，但会缩短其持续时间。例如原本能对敌人施加 3 层中毒，现在可施加 6 层。
• This rewards builds that hit rapidly, allowing them to stack and maintain even more poisons on enemies. However, it does reduce poison duration, and therefore the total damage a poison deals over its duration. This makes it a pretty weak choice for builds that hit hard but don’t attack frequently.
  这一机制奖励快速攻击的流派，使其能在敌人身上叠加并维持更多中毒效果。但相应地会缩短中毒持续时间，从而降低单次中毒的总伤害量。对于攻击频率低但单次伤害高的流派而言，这是个相当弱势的选择。

Trouble Brewing  麻烦酿造

• When you allocate Brew Concoction, you gain access to 5 unique Concoction skills each of which is associated with an element and ailment.
  当你分配 后，将解锁 5 种独特的混合药剂技能，每种技能分别对应一种元素和异常状态。
  • Bleeding Concoction deals Physical Damage and inflicts bleeding.
    造成并施加。
  • Explosive Concoction deals Fire Damage, while inflicting ignite and fire exposure.
    造成，同时施加和。
  • Shattering Concoction deals Cold Damage while inflicting cold exposure, chill, and freeze.
    造成的同时施加、和。
  • Fulminating Concoction deals Lightning Damage while inflicting lightning exposure and shock.
    造成的同时施加和。
  • Poisonous Concoction deals Chaos Damage and inflicts poison.
    造成并施加。
• You can use these Concoctions as supporting skills to inflict ailments and exposure on your enemies, but they truly shine when used as the focal point of your build. Because each attack consumes 5 Mana Flask charges you need a way to sustain your Flasks on single target. This can come in the form of a skill like Alchemist’s Boon, nodes such as Arcane Alchemy or Charge Gain / Gain Charges / Use Reduced Charge affixes on gear. Most builds use a combination of these, but the more gear you have, and the more damage you do, the less sustain you need.
  这些调制品可作为辅助技能施加异常状态和暴露效果，但若将其作为流派核心才能真正发挥威力。由于每次攻击消耗 5 点魔力药剂充能，你需要通过阿尔贝多的祝福等技能、奥术炼金等天赋节点，或装备上的充能获取/减少消耗等词缀来维持单体战斗时的药剂续航。多数流派会组合使用这些手段，装备越精良、伤害越高时，所需的续航压力就越小。
• Concoctions are unarmed skills, and you need an unarmed weapon set to use them. This makes Concoctions incompatible with Herald Skills which require a martial weapon.
  调制品属于徒手技能，需装备徒手武器套装才能施展。这使得调制品与需要武具的圣盾技能互不兼容。
• In addition to their base damage, Concoctions excel at inflicting ailments.
  除了基础伤害外，调制药剂还擅长施加异常状态。

Generic Power  通用力量

• The Pathfinder Ascendancy offers several generic bonuses. These are rarely the reason to play the Ascendancy over a Deadeye but are a great way to add quality of life to your build after you complete your last Trial of Ascendancy.
  追猎者升华职业提供多项通用加成。虽然这些加成很少成为选择该职业而非锐眼的原因，但在完成最后一次升华试炼后，它们能为你的构建增添不少便利性。
• Traveller’s Wisdom, combined with the Passive Points before it grants a total of 6 skill points.
  ，加上之前的点数，总共可获得 6 点技能点。
• From a buildcrafting perspective, you can treat this as +6 to Character level, allowing you to more easily traverse the Passive Skill tree to pick up additional offensive or defensive bonuses.
  从构建角色的角度来看，你可以将其视为角色等级+6，从而更轻松地在被动技能树中获取额外的攻击或防御加成。
• It’s difficult to calculate the value of these nodes, for some builds, 6 points can be a huge improvement, like 15% more damage. Whereas other builds run out of relevant passives to allocate, making this node largely irrelevant.
  这些节点的价值难以计算，对某些流派来说，6 点天赋可能带来巨大提升，比如 15%更多伤害。而其他流派则可能缺乏相关被动可分配，使得这个节点基本无关紧要。
• Relentless Pursuit gives you immunity to all slowing effects. This includes debuffs like Chill and Hinder or Curses like Temporal Chains.
  使你免疫所有减速效果。这包括减益效果如寒冰之缓、阻碍或诅咒类效果如时空锁链。
• Running Assault greatly enhances your mobility. This is a more potent version of the Mobility Support gem.
  大幅增强你的机动性。这是该辅助宝石的强化版本。
• If you get your Attack / Cast speed high enough you can tap your skill to use it once while on the move without being slowed at all. When you can reach this breakpoint with Running Assault it greatly accelerates your clear speed.
  若你的攻击/施法速度足够高，可在移动中轻触技能键无减速释放一次。达到此临界点时，将显著提升清图效率。
• Practical Remedies is another choose-your-own-bonus type node. It offers protection from the elemental ailments Shock, Freeze, and Ignite. Thawing Campfire is a particularly strong choice here as you cannot act while frozen.
  实用疗法是又一个自选增益型天赋节点。它提供对元素异常状态感电、冰冻和点燃的抗性。其中解冻营火是极佳选择，因为冰冻状态下你将无法行动。
• Sustainable Practices is a defensive node that uniquely synergizes with the Pathfinder’s starting location on the passive tree. You have easy access to nodes that increase your Evasion rating making this a great way to get some extra defenses against elemental damage.
  可持续实践是一个防御型节点，与追猎者在被动技能树上的起始位置形成独特协同。你能够轻松获取提升闪避值的节点，这成为对抗元素伤害获取额外防御的绝佳途径。
