Usage

The Chamber

• Use Sprint to run up and take the Clear the Chamber quest from the lost soul, and run back to a safe position.
• Pre-cast one of your visages and use Sprint as an IMS to pull the groups of Grasping Darkness to the center shrine.
• Auto-attack and use your attack skills to build up adrenaline.
• Once charged, use Bonetti's Defense followed by one of your visages and Physical Resistance.
• Use Echo followed by Whirlwind Attack. Using one will recharge the other, so you can constantly spam them.
• Re-apply your visages and Physical Resistance whenever needed.
• If your health gets low, use Lion's Comfort

The Run

• Once you have completed the quest, run along the right side to the open gate, being sure to break aggro with the three or four nearby Aatxes.
• Echo Sprint for a constant IMS on the way to the smites.
• To see how to get to the smites, see the build E/Me Terra Tank.

The Smites

• Use the same techniques used above on the Grasping Darkness.
• If a Smite Crawler casts Shield of Judgment stop using your AoE for about 15 seconds and keep reapplying your Visages.
• Try to pull as many smites as possible, as you can kill 6 or you can kill 50 in the same amount of time. Watch out for Coldfires as they can kill you.
• If a Dying Nightmare pops up kill it before it can pull your visages.

Notes

• A Sunspear rank as low as 4 will have the same damage as cyclone axe. Any higher and the damage increases.
