Due to the build lacking any form of boon self-generation as well as being rather squishy, this build heavily relies on the supports for boon uptime to reach its full potential.

Burst priority
Keep eye on boss HP/
When phases are that fast that you are not sure to get both hits with
When you have enough time to use all those skills within phase time/
When there are a lot of adds around and you have time to hit both burst skills within
Outside of this:
- Try to finish your auto-attack chains (
/ and / ). - Use
Arcane Blast when the target’s defiance bar is broken and you haveElements of Rage andConjure Lightning Hammer up.
Rotation: Weave Self
Once you have finished the Weave Self Loop, you should loop between
Rotation: Bolt to the Heart
The general idea is to loop between

Step-by-Step Rotation
Step 1: Attunement Rotation + Dual Attacks
We will start with the basic rotation of attunements as well as pressing the 3rd skill off-cooldown. As a
- We will start the rotation in
/ . - Then we will swap through
/ - into
/ - and back through
/ - into
/ and repeat.
We will use 3rd skill off-cooldown in each attunement combination. Make sure to not delay your attunement swap, even if a skill is almost off-cooldown. If you are in the middle of an auto-attack, try to finish it before casting your skill, but do not worry about auto-attack chains until you are more comfortable with the rest of the rotation.
Step 2: Weapon Skills
Next up, we will incorporate more weapon skills, namely
-
Fire Grab will not always be up at the same time. Use it whenever it is up, but do not delay your attunement swaps waiting for its cooldown.
Step 3: Primordial Stance
It is now time to start using
- This is an instant-cast skill that deals damage every second and inflicts a condition based on your current attunement.
- We will want to get as many uses in
Fire Attunement as possible. - The first tick happens 1 second after casting it.
So to maximize the damage, we will use 1 charge each time after swapping to
Step 4: Glyph of Storms and Fiery Greatsword
Lastly, we will try to improve our burst damage significantly by using
- Both of these skills can be cast shortly before the fight starts as their effects will persist.
-
Glyph of Storms will be used inAir Attunement . This skill can also be quite useful inEarth Attunement outside of boss fights to inflictBlinded on multiple enemies. - If a Mistlock Singularity is present, you can cast
Conjure Fiery Greatsword there to have another one during the fight. Otherwise, you can cast it before a boss or on the way to the boss as it is also great for mobility. UseFirestorm , then drop it and useGlyph of Storms .
