Rotation & Extras

Willbender Flames are gained when using your Virtues and constantly Damage enemies that are standing within them. Maintaining uptime on your Willbender Flames is the key to success on this build.

Just in case you forgot, these are your Virtues:

Each Virtue produces its own Willbender Flames and only one can be active at any one time. Make sure not to overlap them as they will be wasted. Each Willbender Flame has a slightly different shape but they all have the same effects.

You have a lot of traits that interact with your Virtues:
