Overview

The condition DPS Renegade build for raids. This build has a difficult rotation which requires lots of practice to perform well with. In exchange for the difficulty it brings very high sustained damage, very good CC, high Vulnerability, and multiple supportive auras including Breakrazor's Bastion and Soulcleave's Summit.

This guide is focused on raids. For the fractal version see Renegade - Condi DPS (Fractal).

Specializations

Specializations Variants

• Righteous Rebel can be taken at roughly 10% DPS loss for roughly 50% Alacrity uptime in squads that do not use two Build:Chronomancer - Utility Boon Support and do not already have a Build:Renegade - Boon Support Power DPS providing Alacrity. Note that a squad will need two Condi DPS Renegades for 100% uptime.
• Replace Assassin's Presence with Thrill of Combat if you have someone else in the party providing AP, or if you have no Power DPS classes that benefit from it.

General Tips

• While in Mace/Axe, always try to let your Auto Attack chain finish, as the last hits are very strong.
• On most fights, there are going to be moments when you can't hit the boss, but you'll still gain energy. During these phases, use Heroic Command and Orders from Above to help keep boons up.
• Try to avoid canceling Bloodbane Path during its cast.
• If running Righteous Rebel, replace Icerazor's Ire with Orders from Above.
• As Razorclaw's Rage does not stack, you only want to have one Kalla renegade in each subgroup (unless one adjusts their rotation). Any additional renegades can take Shiro instead of Kalla.
  • If taking Shiro, activate Impossible Odds during the cast of Temporal Rift and otherwise keep the rotation the same (minus the Kalla skills, obviously).
