The Condi Firebrand can provide permanent Quickness (if necessary) to the party while dealing high consistent DPS. Your tomes are by far your most important skills; they enable you to do great DPS as well as support and heal your allies. Tomes cover almost the entire toolbox of defensive capabilities such as boons like Stability, Resistance, but also reflects and pulls and condi cleanses. Knowing where to find these defensive skills is an important part of supporting your team as a DPS player.

This build has tremendous amounts of self-sustain and is therefore also a great build for soloing content:

• Permanent Quickness.
• Some Might uptime.
• Tome of Resolve for heals.
• Tome of Courage for Stability, Resistance, reflects and damage reduction.
• Optionally: Litany of Wrath for a 6s long high HP regeneration.

Overall this build is one of the best picks for newer players, for PuGs as Quickness provider, or for people that want to be more independent of their groups.

To keep up Quickness:

• Use "Feel My Wrath!" whenever ready
• Use all charges of Mantra of Potence when it is charged. You shoud recharge the skill when you have downtime betwween phases, or when auto-attacking on Scepter.
• Use Mantra of Solace Keep in mind that Mantra of Solace does Quickness only every seven seconds ( Liberator's Vow )!
• Only use these skills close to your allies - try to “puke” on them with the mantras
• Keep in mind that equipping or stowing a tome grants you 3 seconds of Quickness every 8 seconds thanks to Swift Scholar !

Tomes are very useful when no other skills are ready. Tome of Justice also gets refreshed every time an enemy dies (works with anomalies at Skorvald/Artsariiv/Arkk, knights at MAMA, and hallucinations at Siax).

The Tome of Courage and Tome of Resolve are great for high incoming damage scenarios.

Tome of Resolve :

• Use this Tome for emergency healing and cleansing.
• Chapter 1: Desert Bloom heals in a cone in front of you.
• Chapter 2: Radiant Recovery heals and cleanses conditions.
• Chapter 3: Azure Sun gives some boons but will rarely be used.
• Chapter 4: Shining River places a healing field that can also be blasted for extra healing.
• Epilogue: Eternal Oasis converts conditions into boons and grants allies an incoming healing modifier.
• When running Virtues entering this Tome also cleanses conditions.

Tome of Courage :

• Use this Tome for massive Stability, Resistance or a reflect.
• Chapter 1: Unflinching Charge grants Stability.
• Chapter 2: Daring Challenge inflicts 1 second of Taunt on the enemy which is a 75/s soft CC.
• Chapter 3: Valiant Bulwark places a bubble that reflects incoming projectiles.
• Chapter 4: Stalwart Stand places a field that pulses Resistance to allies. This will help dealing with non-damaging conditions such as Blinded and Slow.
• Epilogue: Unbroken Lines provides Protection, Aegis, Stability as well as extra Toughness.
• There is no set rotation in this Tome, use whatever skills you need for their utility and make sure to press Skill 5 as it is an incredibly strong skill.
• You can camp in this Tome for a few extra seconds to get an extra cast on an important skill, for example, a 2nd reflect. However only do this when needed as you will not have access to the boons and healing your weapon skills provide.
