• Walrus' general rotation video - Old video now but main change was that enemies no longer need to be in your symbols you instead get a damage buff for hits with symbols.

Firebrand

Quickbrand (Quickness Firebrand)

(outdated)

• Condition Quickness with boon chrono (take mantra of flame over signet of wrath in short phase fights with phases where you can recast eg VG)
  • If no chrono, pick any of these 4 options to hit ~25% boon duration (and swap to stalwart speed):

1. Ascended Concentration/Expertise Food like Peppercorn-Spiced Eggs Benedict (6.6%) or even the base item Plate of Eggs Benedict (6.6%)
2. Superior Sigil of Concentration (10%) over Superior Sigil of Earth
3. Toxic Maintenance Oil (~10%) or Enhanced Lucent Oil (~9%)
4. Seraph Pieces instead of Grieving/Sinister
5.   Signet of Mercy (8%) instead of   Signet of Wrath/  Mantra of Flame

Condi DPS Firebrand

• Budget Condi firebrand - Uses the free helmet you get for unlocking firebrand , and the upgrades in the trinkets are the cheaper versions and . This is only a temporary set as you work towards the real gear but it can be purchased cheaply from Brutus and Sheena's armor on the trading post if you want to rush right into condi FB.

Heal Firebrand

• Harrier - Normal gear setup.
• Example full Givers - To take more toughness, givers are 1:1 swaps from harriers. You shouldn't ever need to go full givers but this is an eample for comparison. Swap in pieces one at a time till you get the desired amount of toughness from the harrier setup.
• Example full Minstrel - Loss of boon duration for increased healing power. Would generally suggest swapping harrier to givers when you need more toughness to tank.

Utility options

•   "Stand Your Ground!" - 5 stacks of stability and additional  Resolution.
•   Mantra of Lore -  Regeneration + condition cleanse.
•   Bow of Truth - Large AoE heal with range.
•   Hammer of Wisdom - Short cooldown CC with charges (200 CC).
•   Sanctuary - Long cooldown strong CC (up to 750-1050 CC) and area projectile block + heal.
•   Merciful Intervention - Teleport and heal, revives as well.
•   Wall of Reflection - Reflect.
•   Sword of Justice -  Vulnerability, should take Zeal as well for more vuln.
•   Mantra of Liberation - Stability and stun break at the cost of quickness buffer.
