- Drop Fiery Greatsword
- Auto Attack chain once

General Tips
- If running , swap to water attunement at step 17 and use before instantly attuning twice to and continuing the rotation from step 20.
- Make sure to use enough that it isn't sitting at full ammo. You should only use it when in / , and should try to line it up with other damage modifiers, such or or the bonus power from .
- Use shortly after you swap to / to make sure as many of its ticks happen while you're in double fire as possible.
- After the first use of (in either attunement), use off cooldown. Use instead if you know the target will die or phase within 20 seconds.
- Make sure not to interrupt your auto attack chains, as their damage is heavily backloaded.
- In encounters you should always be looking for opportunities to reset your attunement back to / so that you can repeat your burst. Split Phases or periods where the target is immune to damage are ideal - try to time your attunement swap so that you enter / just before the target becomes vulnerable again so that you will benefit from .
- Make sure that you have the boss selected before casting
- This is also relevant for , and also to a lesser extent.
to avoid flying away to your death.
Breakbars

- is available as your 5 skill. Be mindful of your positioning when casting this, as it will move you approximately 300 units away from your target.
- is available as your 4 skill.
- is available as your Air/Earth 3 skill.
Ratings
Great burst and sustained damage more than make up for the fully melee requirement, squishiness and forced movement. Very strong in fractals and even stronger in raids.
High damage with good mobility and being actually fun to play (unlike Staff Weaver) makes this among the best choices for small hitbox bosses.
An extremely strong and versatile burst DPS build.
