Now that you’re up to speed with the order of skills you need to follow for Deadeye Leveling, let’s go over some useful tips and tricks that will help you farm easily for your Deadeye.
Use High-Level Gear
When it comes to leveling, no matter what class your character is, you need to get the highest item level gear possible for them. The higher the level of the character’s gear is, the faster they’ll be able to level up.
Best Combat Stats
The best combat stats for Deadeye leveling are Crit, Specialization and Swiftness. Swiftness will increase the movement speed of the Deadeye while Crit and Specialization will increase damage output. These stats will synergize together perfectly to help your Deadeye farm more XP.
Play on Normal Difficulty
Since your main focus right now is leveling, make sure you’re playing on the normal difficulty setting. There’s no point in playing on the hard difficulty mode if you want to level up your Deadeye as it will just slow down the whole process.
