Equipment Variants

Runes

• Superior Rune of Balthazar
  - a more condition focused approach, trading direct damage and boon duration for better Burning bursts on Spear.

Stats

• You could still play full Celestial, it makes the build more forgiving, but it also trades a lot of offensive stats for defensive ones you already have enough of.

Consumables

Food

• Bowl of Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew
  - defensive option with
  Explosive Entrance
  ,
  Relic of Rivers
  and
  Thermal Release Valve
  synergy.
  • Bowl of Meat and Winter Vegetable Stew
    - budget version.

• Spherified Peppercorn-Spiced Oyster Soup
  - defensive ascended choice with passive damage mitigation while also providing a decent amount of offensive stats.

Utility

• Toxic Maintenance Oil
