- Use

Settings
- Under General Options / User Interface check Always show squad health bars and Always show party health bars. These will make it much easier to keep track of who needs your support.
- Also under General Options / User Interface turn on Thick party health bars
- Thick squad health bars can be used too as a matter of personal preference, but is not recommended for large numbers
- Under Squad Options uncheck View as a grid. This will allow you to keep track of your allies' boons, conditions and health, enabling a better decision-making and skill management.
Ratings
![3 stars](/wiki/images/f/f0/3-star.png)
Good alternative to D/F tempest, trading might for and cleanse and heals. Loses a lot of defense and utility, both are pretty marginal at very large group sizes but an issue for this build in smaller groups. Unique auras and solid CC help set it apart from druid/vindicator/scrapper.
