Gameplay Tips

Usual Single Target Rotation: Flames of Oblivion->Chains of Devastation->Fiery Contingency->Shattering Rocks->Molten Whip. The idea here is to setup maximum burst and landing it with the Shattering Rocks stun. You can also choose to stun after the Molten Whip when fighting tankier targets – if you land your burst unblocked you have higher chances of killing your opponent if you stun them at low health.

Usual AoE Rotation: Flames of Oblivion->Fiery Contingency->Fiery Contingency+Dodge Roll/Bash for a “double proc”. Keep in mind you can still switch straight to single target from here if necessary.

When playing this build keep in mind your Corrosive up time and your mobility. You’ll want to avoid fighting outnumbered (or at all) if your Corrosive is not up – the amount of mobility this build runs allows you to choose when and where to fight. Most of your ultimate generation happens on the restoration staff bar, so try to stay on it until Corrosive is available.

For maximum damage, combine the Corrosive with your Acuity set. Note: this is not always necessary and sometimes you’ll want to use them separately.

Only use Energy Overload if absolutely necessary! It is absolutely imperative to try and utilize Corrosive on this build, so you’ll want to save ultimate for that most of the time. You can use Energy Overload if you’re out of resources and need magicka to use Ball of Lightning or heal behind line of sight for example, but try to avoid being in that situation.

You can sometimes take risks going offensive with a Shattering Rocks CC, as the skill also provides a burst heal when opponent CC breaks.
