Stability

priority

4. ⇒ Epilogue Unbroken Lines

• Apply before allies get caught by enemy CC
  • Enemy CC is most likely to land when they spike your group, your group is moving through theirs, or your group is moving away from theirs
    • It is better to use your too early than too late
• Spread your application as much as you can without letting allies get caught by CC
  • Avoid overlapping multiple sources on your party, both your own and other players
• The final charge of is very powerful, but should be conserved for use when all other are expended
• ⇒ Epilogue Unbroken Lines is your last resort for due to the high page cost
• When using skills without pulsing application (everything other than ) cover the application by applying other boons immediately after the cast
  • This is done because boon strips (which are the most common type of boon removal) always work on a first in, last out priority
    • This means boon strips will always remove the most recently applied boons first
    • Boon corrupts remove a random boon which this technique can still mitigate by ensuring you have as many unique boons as possible

Stunbreaking

• is your group stunbreak, use its charges very carefully - the cooldown is too long to waste them
• Allies are most likely to be CCed at the same times they need or while they are the focus target.
• Turn your camera, make use of a “Look Behind” keybind and listen to voice communications to pay attention to caught allies.

• Skip or if you aren't able to get in a good position to use them

• You can cast before using , but make sure you're Illuminated for the cast of

CC

CC Skill List

• ⇒ Chapter 2 Daring Challenge - AoE

• ⇒ Chapter 3 Heated Rebuke - AoE

• Use your CC when:

  • Your group calls a spike such as Wells ()
  • On top of enemy downs (while alive enemies are on top of them)
  • Enemy groups move defensively while your group is pushing
  • Do not use your CC at the normal time, instead use it while your group is on the defensive or before your group pushes in
