Guide

Build Explaination

frontbar - 

pragmatic fatecarver - best skill in the game. cleaves, damage shield, and the reaving blows cp will make it heal you 

flail - heals you, generates crux, makes enemies take 5% more damage 

inspired scholarship - keep this up 100% of the time. the damage it does is negligible but it generates crux when you have none 

merciless resolve - slotted for passives. you probably shouldnt be casting it unless you know what youre doing 

concealed weapon - slotted for passives. dont cast it. dawnbreaker - big damage ult that you should use on bosses where you need a quick dps phase 

 

backbar - 

ele sus - major breach and a bunch of status effects. use on big enemies that you wont kill super quickly 

ele blockade - just an amazing ability. procs your backbar enchant while youre on the front bar, giving you a bunch of weapon/spell damage. does good damage. causes enemies to lose armor while in it 

boundless storm - major resolve. keep this up 100% of the time 

critical surge - gives you buffs and makes you heal on crits. keep this up 100% of the time 

for the open spot on the backbar you can slot vigor but it will probably kill you more than it helps you. you have so much healing in this kit that relies on you doing damage, just cast flail if youre dying and itll bring you to full health. you can slot caltrops if you want major breach in aoe, since ele sus can be a bitch to use on ads that die really quick. tbh thats probably a waste tho. if i were you id slot something like fulminating rune/scalding rune/barbed trap for the extra boss damage, although its usually not needed

if anyone wants a vMA build that works with a different base class let me know
