Equipment

  • Shield +10ar vs. Earth Damage (Inscription: "Like a Rolling Stone")

Usage

  • Equip your Norn title.

  • Take the bounty (if desired).
  • Maintain Channeling/Balthazar's Spirit, SF and SoD (cast both under Deadly Paradox), and your optional skill.
  • Recast Shroud of Distress on recharge to get the damage reduction stack.
  • Group the vaettir up into a tight ball. You can do this in two separate pulls, or in one (see the videos).
  • Kill them with Smites/Arcane Echoed Wastrel's Demise (tabbing to a new vaettir after hexing one). Rinse and repeat.

Counters

  • Failure to maintain SF.
