AoE – Spam Total Eclipse and Circle of Scorn.Save Mana for Requiescat + Holy Spirit windows – you should get 5 Holy Spirit uses per window.Shield swipe is a free 100 potency/15 seconds, don’t ignore it. Use Sheltron or Intervention before capping gauge, in order to get the most out of Shield Swipe procs.Mana is best saved for Requiescat windows. Avoid using Clemency unless it is required for survival.Maintain Goring Blade DoT on your primary target – Goring combo should be started every 5-6 GCDs in order to maintain this debuff.These will be discussed later in the guide on proper utilization. Fight or Flight and Requiescat should be kept on rotation and on cooldown as much as possible.Use all offensive OGCDs on cooldown (Spirits Within, Circle of Scorn).Avoid using Shield Oath when you are comfortable with a fight to understand the damage output, or not in imminent danger of getting face-rolled.If you’ve played the class to 70, you should have a general idea of what to do.
