Usage[]

<pvxbig>

  • Build up adrenaline with Burst of Aggression
  • Find a suitable target for your chain - you can use it on frontliners to blind them and take pressure off your backline, or on monks to disable them for a short period of time
  • When you have enough adrenaline, us your chain: Backbreaker -> Belly Smash -> On your knees! -> Heal Area
  • This will heal you and recharge Burst of Aggression so you can repeat the chain with full health and recharged skills
  • Support your party with Heal Area - stand close to the party member before casting it. Especially use it if someone is taking pressure from a dangerous frontliner.
  • If you are under pressure, and Heal Area is recharging, use Ethereal Light on yourself
  • Use Cure Hex to remove dangerous hexes like [[Diversion], [[Shame], [[Visions of Regret] and [[Mirrored Stance]
  • Use Ressurect to bring your monks back to life efficiently
