This build concentrates on having constant pressure on enemies through burning and a constantly active IAS and IMS. It also has a constant 103 armor vs. all damage and 123 vs. physical as well as +3 health regeneration. This build can inflict burning for 5 seconds on nearby foes every 5 seconds through great synergy between Harrier's Haste and Avatar of Balthazar.

Usage[]
- Maintain Avatar of Balthazar and all enchantments at all times, with a zealous scythe this will not be difficult.
- Maintain Heart of Fury
- Spam Chilling victory
- Use Victorious Sweep whenever you aren't using Chilling Victory
Counters[]
- General anti melee/ranged hexes
- Blind
- Rapid enchant removal
Notes[]
- Spamming Harrier's Haste not only provides a constant IMS but also additional damage on moving targets and causes Avatar of Balthazar to trigger burning more often.
- Make sure not to reactivate Grenth's Aura until it has expired and triggered burning. This also helps to conserve energy.
- Do not worry if a mesmer only puts Empathy on you if you still have all of your enchantments active. Use chilling victory then Victorious Sweep on them and the life stealing from Grenth's aura and the healing from Victorious sweep will negate damage from Empathy.
