Kite Qadim as Vindicator (details in description)

I initially recorded this video for a friend who asked me how to kite as a Vindicator. I'll briefly explain how it works and why you should abandon your "safe ranged kite build" such as Deadeye, Soulbeast, or Hammer/Shortbow Vindicator that just deals negative DPS on the boss. Kiting as a Vindicator is extremely safe while dealing a significant amount of damage during DPS phases.
The build is just the SC build (snowcrows.com/builds/revenant.... You can adjust one trait in the Invocation trait line to play with "Rapid Flow" instead of "Spirit Boon." It's just a matter of comfort; I personally choose it because the speed is appreciated while kiting. However, if you don't trust your supports to give you vigor, you can keep Spirit Boon.
Kiting is really simple. You need to constantly move toward the mobs while camping on the Alliance Stance. As long as you have fury, all your offensive skills will one-shot (even Selfish Spirit) the lava slubs. To stack fury, you have the scavenger burst, which I use one out of two mobs. It's a ranged skill and also one-shots if it lands a crit. When not using Scavenger burst, you can use basically everything: a dodge, a GS5 (make sure to target the slub), a GS2, Reaver's Rage, etc. If you're late on kiting, you can use GS3 or Nomad's Advance to catch up with spawning slubs.
For sustain, you have many tools that can help you, providing a significant margin of error and making Vindicator very safe to kite even if you are a low IQ dude taking every fire lines or qadim's auto, this build can also kite with 8+ stacks on the boss :
- Your F2 and Scavenger's Burst grants endurance, you can use your dodges defensivly to avoid fire lines and autos
- Rapid Flow heals you for 500 HP with a 5-second ICD when using an energy-cost skill.
- F3 grants you regen and ~1k healing (also procs if you swap legends).
- Selfish Spirit and Selfless Spirit are two healing skills with a 10-second cooldown.
- Shiro heal that you can precast between phases.
- GS4 is a nice block that prevents you from getting hit by Qadim's autos or random AOEs.
- Tree Song provides free regen, condi cleanse if hit by a fire line, and heals you if it cleanses a condition.
- Awakening offers free instant-cast protection; don't hesitate to use it when swapping to St Viktor.
- And just the fact that Revenant is a heavy-armored class with a huge amount of base HP.
During DPS phases, follow the classic DPS rotation, but adapt it based on the situation (delaying dodges or cutting your rotation with a dodge to avoid a push or a fire wave). Be cautious with GS3, as it puts you in the hitbox and can put you in a bad position. I personally replace it with Nomad's Advance. On P2 and P3, due to platform positions and reduced space, the RNG of 5GS is lowered, so there is a better chance that the strikes will hit the boss."
Between the end of P2 and the last kiting phase, in many pugs groups, you may find downed players near the boss. Don't hesitate to res, as you have a lot of time before the kiting phase begins. Even if the platforms are moving, you can easily teleport to the boss using Phase Traversal (1200 range), this situation was recorded on this video luckily. Just be cautious not to cast it on the edge of a platform, as it does a short dash before teleporting you.
