Strategy
AUDREY 🔸The Grave Robber has some of the most flexible targeting and positioning amongst the Heroes. Combined with her fantastic self-sustain, Dodge and, she suffers very little from enemy disruption despite her low HP. Most of Grave robber Damage is very reliant on CRIT chance as such Grave Robber requires more planning than other heroes but can be very effective given the right circunstances.

🔸 SKILLS OVERVIEW


 * Dd2 ability picktotheface.png Pick to the Face is Grave Robber's Melee option to deal with frontliners. Ignores and Remove the enemies where Block is more common. Like most of her skills, is very effective with dd2 token combo.png since it gives an extra +50% CRIT chance. Combined with Gr-stiff-drink.pngStiff Drink (+50% DMG) the skill can deliver a powerful blow.


 * Dd2 ability throwndagger.png Thrown Dagger is Grave Robber's Ranged option, can hit back-lines and certain front-lines.  It can bypass both Guard and Dodge when Grave Robbe has Stealth. Having the highest CRIT chance of all GR Moves (alongisde Lunge Dd2 ability lunge.png) makes this move very deadly combined with +50% CRIT on  dd2 token combo.png.
 * Dd2 ability flashingdaggers.png Flashing Daggers is Grave Robber's Ranged cleave. Due to it's low Base damage is better used as a token-clearing move and to finish off low HP Targets.


 * Dd2 ability poisondart.png Poison Dart i s Grave Robber's source of . Can hit all Ranks and it benefits greatly from the crit chance due to (Extra Duration/Ignore  RES). IT has a lower CRIT chance than other Ranged Options but shares the +50% CRIT on dd2 token combo.png with makes this move incredible effective.


 * Dd2 ability absinthe.png Absinthe is Grave Robbers primary panic button. Heals Icon HP dd2.pngHP and applies a good amount of Dodge and . It is advisable to equip this skill as it is one of the major sources of self-sustain for Grave robber.


 * Dd2 ability deadofnight.png Dead of the Night another amazing Self-sustain move . Heals HP, Stress and adds  Stealth.The only drawback of this move is it requires a enemy Corpse to work. If the fight doesnt have any Corpse (like boss fights) It is better to temporarily replace this skill with another one.


 * Dd2 ability glintinthedark.png Glint in the Dark is one of the most unique Skill in the game as is the only Skill that Bypass Death's Door Deathsdoor dd2.png( If Grave Robber has Stealth ). Combined with a respectable amount of damage this makes the most difficult fights in the game easier. High threats such as Exemplar (50% Deathsdoor dd2.png RES) can be killed much faster with this ability.


 * Dd2 ability lunge.png Lunge has the highest CRIT chance of all GR Moves (alongisde Thrown Dagger Dd2 ability throwndagger.png ) wich makes it a very deadly move. This is one of the moves that benefits the most from Trinkets (Example: Trinket cultist silent treatment.png Silent Treatment, Heartseeker (all).pngHeartseeker , Sharpness charm (all).pngness Charm.) since it's flaws (Huge, inconsistence, damage ranges reliant on CRITs) can be easily denied with Trinkets.


 * Dd2 ability pirouette.png Pirouette High damage, high crit move that hits both Front-rank, a very deadly skill that can kill both Front-ranks in a single blow with the correct Trinkets and some Luck. It moves Grave Robber Backwards and apply to her but the payoff is worth the huge Damage potential of this skill.
 * Dd2 ability repartee.png Repartee applies Dodge x3  and  Taunt  making Grave Robber a "Dodge Tank". Although Dodge  reduces all damage to zero, GR's low Base  HP could cause an unlucky roll to put Grave Robber at risk.


 * Dd2 ability shadowfade.png Shadow Fade Moves Back 2, gives and applies unconditional  Stealth to Grave Robber, most of Grave Robber skills have extra benefits with Stealth  wich makes this skill a Combo move. Although there are better alternatives to get  Stealth.
