Extremely good burst, one of the highest dps solo builds. It is worth noting that roughly half of your dps comes from having Rushing Justice's (F1) passive up. The build focuses on burning damage which gives it a lot of gear flexibility. Its only major weakness is its defences are heavily focused on cooldowns. This allows for swapping out traits and utility at the cost of some dps, but there isnt much passive sustain. CC is decent, aoe/cleave is good, there are multiple good options for getting stab and condi cleanse.

Condi Willbender is a reliable, high damage build that features very high CC and mobility with moderate ability to defend itself with Crashing Courage and other powerful defensive tools such as Advance, Stand Your Ground, and Wall of Reflection. An absolutely incredible build for open world and well worth learning.
