Usage

Activate Aggressive Refrain before battle.
- Outside of battle, keep it up with Anthem of Flame.
Use both "GFTE!" and Anthem of Flame to add pressure, but also gain Energy.

Use Spear of Lightning for additional damage.
Use "Coward!" to support Melee allies, by Knocking Down fleeing opponents.
- "Coward!" can also be used to support any party member, by Knocking Down chasers.
Try staying out of enemy fire as much as possible.
Use Resurrection Signet as needed.

Counters

Use Awe to inflict Daze.
Use Signet of Return as a hard resurrection.
Disrupting Throw.
Barbed Spear and Maiming Spear for Crippling.
Replace Anthem of Flame with Anthem of Weariness.
Blazing Spear can replace Spear of Lightning
Res Signet can be replaced with "Fall Back!" for a speed boost in AB.

Notes

This build is most effective in a well-coordinated team, involving Melee attackers, who can take advantage of the frequent KD's.
