Guide

Build Explanation

This is just a build I am working on for my solo play. The intent is to be able to eventually solo dungeons. Recommended gear is simply what I have available to me. Front bar is tank oriented, back bar is DPS. This is great for people without access to armoury assistants, people who don't like swapping sets in dungeons, or people who want to solo world bosses.

I made this because I wanted a build that I could queue up as a tank or DPS in normal dungeons and be useful in either role with the same setup. At the same time, the build needed to be capable of soloing most WBs.

Disclaimer: The build isn't super durable against hordes of enemies, so keep that in mind. It's something I am trying to figure out how to compensate for without just turning into a main tank build.

 

Rotation is pretty normal, keep Inspired Scholarship and Hardened Armour up always, use Escalating Runeblades to get crux for Pragmatic Fatecarver. If playing as the tank, maintain Pierce Armour and Agony Totem uptime.


Swap Green Dragon Blood and Choking Talons if you play Tank more often, as quick access to healing is crucial. You are welcome to customise Champion Points, I have very little idea what's actually good in there.

The DPS build is pretty suboptimal, go use a real build. If you like the look of it, it's for when you want to deal more damage, and are in a group. But, realistically, if you are looking to play in a premade group, look at a different build, I don't care for perfect optimisation and debuff/buff uptimes.
