Detailed Explanations

Traps

  • Use Procession of Blades and Test of Faith when the enemy group is pushing towards you or your group is in melee
  • Don't try to predict the enemy group far in advance or precast traps, wait until you have an opportunity to get immediate value
  • Don't put yourself in a position where you could die trying to get better traps off
  • Combine your Symbol of Luminescence and Solar Storm with your traps for even more burst damage


Shield of Courage

  • Shield of Courage blocks for allies inside the cone of the shield animation in front of you
    • Shield of Courage blocks damage coming from enemy players you are facing
      • This means the center of an AoE can be behind you, but if you're facing the player that cast it the damage will be blocked


Damage

  • In Greatsword use Symbol of Resolution Whirling Wrath immediately then repeat both skills before swapping back to Spear
  • In Spear use Symbol of Luminescence Gleaming Disc Solar Storm then Auto Attack filling with Helio Rush if you see an opportunity to use it safely
    • You can cast Solar Storm before using Gleaming Disc, but make sure you're Illuminated for the cast of Solar Storm
  • Use Wings of Resolve when out of range of other skills to gap close and apply Immobilize Immobilize
