How Viper Plays
Summon plus damage-over-time ground skills. Skill order matters less than cooldown cycling; for single-target hunts turn off AoE toggles (summon, poison burst) and focus fire.
Korean documentation for Viper centers on mechanics rather than a fixed skill order: Call of the Pitch-Black (칠흑의 부름), Poison Burst (독폭팔), ultimate (Half-Angle) (반각). These are the levers that define the class. The full ordered build lands here right after launch-week verification. We do not publish invented skill lists.

Viper FAQ
How should I use Viper skills in PvP?
Korean 700K-CP guidance: open with your ultimate, cycle everything else on cooldown. In PvE the order matters less than managing toggles.
What does Call of the Pitch-Black do?
칠흑의 부름 summons the Piercer (꿰뚫는 자), a signature damage source you keep active while clearing fields.
