Usage

General

• Focus primarily on landing immobilize on your group's spike damage or when you have a friendly Winds of Disenchantment.
  • Muddy Terrain can be used at range for a quick spike or shade spike
  • Signet of the Wild is a powerful but small AoE melee tool best used in heavy spikes
  • Entangle is best used in Winds and pushes by your group
  • Prelude Lash is incredibly strong and can be used in any melee situation where you are spiking the enemy
• Use Maul off cooldown for high damage spikes
• Counterattack is your best defensive option. Be careful not to use the flip skill or double tap it.
• Swoop Is a high damage gap closer with strong evade frames.
• Path of Scars can pull multiple enemies out of position and is excellent on spikes.
• Whirling Defense is your best tool for cleaving enemy downstates or landing large spikes, but locks you in place. Be sure to use it when you have good group support and are in a relatively safe position.
