Equipment

  • A Poisonous Recurve Bow Of Fortitude with "Strength and Honor" inscription.
  • A 15% -5 Poisonous Recurve of Fortitude if running Purge.
  • A Poisonous Longbow of Fortitude for hitting skills that enemies use before engaging (Aegis, Apply Poison).
  • A Poisonous Flatbow of Fortitude for taking out Archers.
  • A Spear/Shield +60 health defensive set with selection of shields.

Usage

  • Maintain Apply Poison to spread Poison on your targets, and to cover any other conditions you (or allies) may apply.
  • Target casters; primarily those that will have long-casting skills or will be a danger to your success, and begin hitting them with your attack skills.
  • Do not spam the interrupts randomly, no matter how tempting it may be. Wait until the target is using a skill before interrupting it, otherwise you could be left with them recharging when an opportunity comes up.
  • Use Mending Touch to remove conditions.
  • Use Natural Stride for blocking and an IMS, use it to protect yourself from interrupts while using Apply Poison.
  • Resurrect fallen allies with Resurrection Signet.

Counters

  • Any anti-physical that you're unable to disable.
