I like grinding DE’s with this build. I plan on trying it in dungeons once I get all the gear I want for it.

0/20/0/20/30

  • Good for DEs/AOE/Support
  • Big AOE Might Stacks
  • 100% uptime on AOE Swiftness (w/ Horn)
  • Requires Banner Management (1 Banner)
  • Condition Damage is main stat (both weapon sets benefit),
  • Carrion/(Koda/Orr/Nightmare)/Rampager. Flexible secondary stats.
  • High Adrenaline Gain for Longbow Burst spam
  • Rotation: Longbow Burst -> Longbow 3 -> Banner 5. Repeat every 10 seconds (CD)
  • 6 to 12 AOE might stacks per rotation (initial Banner drop gives 3, For Great Justice gives 3).
  • MH Sword for Bleeds, Leap (can leap into your own field for a Fire Shield), and Snare
  • OH Sword for more bleed stacks
  • OH Horn + Banner for 100% Swiftness Uptime (Excellent on escort events)
  • Recommend 20% crit damage (via Jewels/Trinket) if you plan on using gear with a lot of precision

I plan on tweaking my stats by getting 6pc Koda (Cond/pr/tough) and weapons, berserker neck and the rest carrion with four ruby gems (for a power boost and 200% crits). That will give condition damage, crit, some power and enough crit damage to get a good return on all of the precision.
