Link for combo video:
*a good mix of armor to achieve balanced stats
-high power precision. +500 to vitality, toughness, ferocity
*condi clears: blocks/aegis, Wings of Resolve, Shelter
*stability: Shield of Courage, Hunter's Determination
*Sigil of Rage, Sigil of Agility are used on Greatsword to deliver that burst combined with traps for that 1 combo KO
*Shelter is a better heal than the trap heal. Doesnt need a trap trigger and heals ~7k, clears 2 conditions and blocks while clearing more conditions
*COMBOS
Longbow combo 1:
Spear of Justice, Symbol of Energy, Spear of Justice (pull), Test of Faith, True Shot
(hook them, set Symbol wear you will pull them, pull and activate trap, finish with True Shot while they are coming out of the pull)
Longbow combo 2:
Hunter's Ward, Judge's Intervention, Process of Blades, Test of Faith, Symbol of Wrath, Whirling Wrath
(the ultimate dps combo. trap them, teleport to them and unleash the beast)
Greatsword combo 3:
Whirling Wrath, Judge's Intervention, Test of Faith
(while Whirling Wrath is channeling, teleport to the enemy, while whirling, daze and gain protection while having a fury boon)
Greatsword combo 4:
Binding Blades, Symbol of Wrath, Binding Blades (pull), Whirling Wrath, Test of Faith
(hook them, set down Symbol of Wrath, walk across symbol to pull them into the center of symbol, pull and finish with Whirling Wrath, Test of Faith)
Greatsword combo 5: (this is a tricky one)
Binding Blades, Judge's Intervention, Procession of Blades, Binding Blades (pull), Whirling Wrath, Test of Faith
(channel Binding Blades, teleport mid-channel, drop Procession of Blades onto the enemy, pull enemy back into the blades and finish with Whirling Wrath, daze and gain protection by activating Test of Faith)
(the combo does not require Hunter's Ward to lock but is just as effective. Works on targets that arent moving too much because you need to drop Procession of Blades on top of them. But since you are teleporting right to them, it should be easier to do. This one takes practice but is much harder to detect, once you lock them with Binding Blades, they will need some form of stability to escape this combo)
General Combo 6/7: (used with both sets)
Spear of Justice, Procession of Blades, Judge's Intervention, Spear of Justice (pull)
(hook them, channel the trap, teleport while mid channel to drop trap on them, pull them back in. you can add more if you want but this is how you use Procession of Blades in the most effective way by pulling them back in after you set it off)
