Key Concepts

Condition Herald is a sturdy condition spec, focusing on Torment to pressure opponents.

It gains access to amazing boon uptime with 传奇巨龙姿态 图标传奇巨龙姿态. 传奇恶魔姿态 图标传奇恶魔姿态 brings great damage and crowd control.

Damage

Herald focuses on being melee to hit 唤醒折磨 图标唤醒折磨, which will apply Burning, Torment and Poison, and 恶魔召唤 图标恶魔召唤/巨龙召唤 图标巨龙召唤.

The rest of your damage comes from a mix of crowd control and simple abilities but note everything you do is AoE.

On Mace always use 灼热裂痕 图标灼热裂痕 before 回荡喷发 图标回荡喷发 to generate some Might.

On Spear we get access to a small AoE: 深渊毁灭 图标深渊毁灭. Every other skill we use on Spear will lower 深渊毁灭 图标深渊毁灭 cooldown.

  • 深渊原力 图标深渊原力 is a simple damage ability you can use off cooldown.
  • 深渊突袭 图标深渊突袭 will Evade in the direction you choose. It has some damage potential but should mostly be used defensively or for mobility.
  • 深渊霹雳 图标深渊霹雳 is by far your best skill. It does Pull, Poison, Chilled, Torment and Burning.

On 传奇恶魔姿态 图标传奇恶魔姿态 your best damage option is to use 苦痛召唤 图标苦痛召唤 to leap and Pull into its second part 破势猛击 图标破势猛击.

If you want to pressure from range you can use 驱逐附魔 图标驱逐附魔 as it will apply 6 stacks of Torment.

Lastly your elite 拥抱黑暗 图标拥抱黑暗 will pulse Torment around you at the cost of losing Energy every second.

元素多面体 图标元素多面体元素轰击 图标元素轰击 is a good source of damage on 传奇巨龙姿态 图标传奇巨龙姿态.

Defense

传奇恶魔姿态 图标传奇恶魔姿态 has access to a decent Stun Break: 吸收苦痛 图标吸收苦痛

真正本质 图标真正本质 on 传奇恶魔姿态 图标传奇恶魔姿态 will transfer your conditions to enemies around you.

Most of our active defense comes from 传奇巨龙姿态 图标传奇巨龙姿态 abilities.

Your biggest source of active sustain will be 水晶休眠 图标水晶休眠 as it blocks, Heal and cleanses conditions from yourself at the cost of not being able to move for the full duration.
