Overview

A pure support Renegade build which can be played as the main healer in dungeons and fractals or the secondary healer in raids. This build provides excellent healing, CC, Might, Alacrity, and the Assassin's Presence buff. However it is heavily dependent on teammates being able to stack inside the AoE range of its tablet.

If paired with a source of Quickness, such as a Chronomancer - Utility Boon Support or Firebrand - Quickness Support DPS, this build can cover the offensive support for a party. A Chronomancer paired with this build can drop their alacrity generation tools (primarily Well of Recall) and take more offensive options instead.

Specializations

Specialization Variants

• Lasting Legacy over Righteous Rebel for more Might output, at the cost of being unable to provide 10-target Alacrity. Generally this swap should only be made if you have another source of might in your party.
• Selfless Amplification can be taken instead of Generous Abundance if you are not taking Ventari, as far fewer orbs will be created in this case.

Invocation Variant

Invocation is worth running instead of Devastation if your party is mostly condition DPS which doesn't benefit much from Assassin's Presence. This variant provides some extra boons on legend swap as well as higher energy if managed well.

If the extra healing is not required, you could take Invocation instead of Salvation in order to maximise group damage through both Assassin's Presence and higher uptime of Soulcleave's Summit.

Usage

Simply using the following skills on cooldown will maintain 20 Might (25 with Lasting Legacy) and permanent Alacrity for your party:

• Orders from Above
• Heroic Command

• Other than maintaining boons, while in Legendary Renegade Stance you should cast Breakrazor's Bastion and Soulcleave's Summit.
• While in Legendary Centaur Stance extra energy can be used on weapon skills for DPS (if on sword/sword):
  • Chilling Isolation
  • Shackling Wave
  • Deathstrike

General

• Warding Rift can be used to AoE blind trash mobs and block attacks.
• Renewing Wave is a blast finisher and can be used with 24px Protective Solace or another light combo field to clean a large amount of conditions.
• Natural Harmony can be used before the tablet is moved, so that the healing effect occurs directly at the destination.

CC

• Surge of the Mists is your most effective hard CC. Make sure to step back slightly from the target before casting this to maximize the amount of hits you get from the skill.
• Energy Expulsion is also a potent hard CC, but keep in mind that your tablet will be destroyed and your energy will be drained to 0.
