Equipment

  • Good insignias for this build are Sentry's because of the +10 armor (while in stance)
  • Either Runes of Vitae or Attunement will work, depending on if you need more Health or more energy
  • A +20 En staff with 20% longer Enchantments or +30 health is recommended as a high energy set.
  • A Sword/Shield combo is optional as a defensive set:
    • Sword
      • +5 energy inscription
      • 20% Enchanting
    • Shield
      • -5/20 OR -2/stance Inscription
      • +30hp OR +45hp/stance


Usage

  • Chain your stances.
  • Use "Don't Trip!" and IAU as your anti-kd's depending on how many KD's/foes you're facing.
  • Shadow step on foes at the end of mobs for maximum speed.
  • Use VoS right before aggroing/being struck by spells.
  • Heart of Shadow for healing and losing aggro. Note only to use it on foes behind you, as this will make it teleport you forward.

Counters

  • Cripple if "I am Unstoppable!" is recharging
  • Canceling Pious and ending VoS at a bad time
  • Lack of Energy (which can be fixed with the right runes)
  • Body Block with all three teleports recharging (rare)

Variants

  • Feigned Neutrality for "Don't Trip!" if you feel the need for more healing.
  • Dwarven Stability for "Don't Trip!"; turn off post processing effects if using it while drunk. This can also be used as energy management.
  • Fleeting Stability for "Don't Trip!" for more secure anti-knockdown, though you should be careful not to cancel it before Pious Haste before IAU recharges.
  • Shadow Sanctuary or Feigned Neutrality instead of Heart Of Shadow if you aren't comfortable with Heart of Shadow for healing.
