Overview

This build provides 100% Quickness uptime on a closely stacked group while having decent burst and sharing the buff with allies. It pairs well with a Renegade - Boon Support Power DPS providing alacrity.

Unfortunately this build's group DPS contribution will fall behind that of Firebrand - Quickness Support Condi DPS in practically every raid encounter.
