Auto-Cancelling with Loki

Now you guys probably know that as a Loki player, you're more then likely to get Hydra's Lament which is super awesome and increases damage ten-fold.

But what you didn't know is that slight change it got, no cooldown on when it can be activated. Which means that you can now auto cancel with Loki

All you need to do is simply Vanish Auto attack Assassinate Auto Aimed Strike Auto and if they're not dead then throw a Decoy out and hit them once more.

Hope you found this useful

That auto-cancelling is not something new due to Hydra's Lament change.
It was always better to use this tactic to avoid being affected by Loki's basic attack chain.

However, with the Hydra's Lament passive having no CD now, it seems like this buff was directly aimed for him.

I was a bit confused because a video I watched didn't explain it well, but do you think this could be something to build on rama?

Auto-cancelling, in the case of Loki is mainly used to reset his basic attack chain.
In the case of a hunter, it would be used to cancel the basic attack animation, which is still an improvement, but in a lesser degree.

I'm pretty sure that Astral Strike do not reset the basic attack animation, but I would need to test it.
As for Pick Me Up, the ability itself has an animation, which is slowing you a bit already, so it's not worth it.

I know that basic attack animation cancelling can be improve your damage as Ullr.

Of course, Hydra's Lament would still not be a good pick on hunters.

Was in my guide :)
