Heal Quickness Firebrand grants Quickness and other boons through repeated Mantra casts, especially 潜能咒语 图标潜能咒语, and has a powerful support kit behind its Tomes. Frequent and extensive use of Pages on these skills is crucial to getting the most value out of the build; they have strong healing, boons, and powerful group utility.

纯粹决心 图标纯粹决心 Cleanses 3 conditions whenever entering 决心圣书 图标决心圣书 (without Dormant Resolve). This can be used to cleanse without using a Page.

博学之士 图标博学之士 can be taken to generate additional Pages, at the loss of Resistance and Might output. If doing so, 战斗灵气 图标战斗灵气 may be taken to improve healing output from the retained resolve passive, at the loss of some Stability output.

稳健急速 图标稳健急速 may be taken for additional Quickness output if struggling to upkeep, as long as Aegis and/or Stability is frequently given to allies. This will noticeably reduce Page recovery.

  • Spear can be used instead of Axe/Shield for increased Healing, Cleanse, and Resistance output, at the cost of a Pull, and an Aegis source. This should not be done if tanking, due to the movement on 日光奔袭 图标日光奔袭. If doing so, make sure 闪耀圆转 图标闪耀圆转 is always used under Illuminated.
  • Mace can be used instead Axe for increased Healing and another Aegis source, but only if your subgroup can generate Fury from another source. 防御反击 图标防御反击 should not be used to block attacks that simultaneously hit your squadmates.
  • Additional gear pieces may be swapped to Harrier's or Giver's to lower or raise Toughness for tanking purposes.
