• Before battle, send this hero alone to cap a shrine.
• The hero will normally cast all enchantments but Ebon Dust Aura. Manually cast this.
• The hero will begin building up adrenaline and using her attack skills.
• Check on the hero every 30 seconds to make sure Ebon Dust Aura is on the hero.
• Use this hero to cap shrines, or to support you in battle.
• Keep in mind that the hero's AI is intelligent enough to use utility skills.

[edit] Counters

• Heavy enchantment removal
• Heavy condition removal
• General anti-attack hexes

[edit] Variants

• Mirage Cloak or Signet of Pious Light can be replaced by Blazing Spear.
• Some people prefer a disabled Imbue Health to Signet of Pious Light to keep enchantments on.
• The addition of some energy management can help as maintaining four enchantments is fairly costly. eg Zealous Renewal.
