Utility

There are 2 viable picks for the optional slot, both of them offer Stability on their toolbelt which is what the build needs most:

• Bulwark Gyro - very defensive and forgiving skill with good barrier, and Stability/anti-projectile on Defense Field. More forgiving than Elixir B as both the normal and the toolbelt skills are instant and can be used even while CC'd.

• Elixir B - has a cast time and less sustain vs direct damage but provides better uptime on your offensive boons from both the main skill and Toss Elixir B as well as Resolution which is great against conditions in a build that lacks frequent cleansing.

Consumables

Food

• - passive strike damage mitigation and Celestial-like stats.

  • - budget version.
