Support Hero

<pvxbig> [build prof=mo/p div=12+1+3 command=12][blessed aura][spell breaker][make haste][fall back][stand your ground][enduring harmony][optional][optional][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

• Radiant insignias
• High energy staff of enchanting
• The hero should have about 50 energy

Usage

• Disable all skills on the hero but blessed aura (which will be automatically used and maintained) and fall back. Set him to passive.
• Run to Jaga Moraine from Longeyes Ledge using Fall Back (bring the hero with you).
• Upon entering, the hero will use blessed aura and fall back once you start moving.
• Flag the hero just west of the res shrine and maybe a little south.
• Stand almost outside the hero's aggro bubble and order it to use Enduring Harmony -> Spell Breaker -> Stand Your Ground -> Make Haste as quickly as possible.
• Aggro as much as you can. The amount you can aggro and what groups to ignore are learned through experience only.
• Get out of your hero's radar range so he doesnt affect drops.
• Activate your first 5 skills as soon as you have aggroed as much as you can.
• Hit an adjacent target once.
• Once the ball has almost become complete, activate shield stance.
• Once the ball is complete (or spell breaker has 1.5 seconds left, whichever comes first), activate Hundred Blades -> Whirlwind Attack.
• Collect drops.
• If any enemies are still alive, let them kill you and you will respawn close to the gate. If there are no enemies nearby, run back to the gate and rezone.
• If you want, you can kill the South group. R8+ in Vanguard Title is recommended.
• Rinse and repeat.

Notes

• Kills an average of 30 (60) enemies in 1:15 (2:30) including rezone times.
• Requires a high Ebon Vanguard title to function.

Variants

• If using an off-hand such as the bison cup, switch Shield Stance to Disciplined Stance or Defensive Stance.
