Resurrection Signet

  • Signet of Pious Light can be added if a direct heal is required.
  • Mystic Sandstorm can be used if facing large numbers of low HP foes
  • Rending Touch can be used if enchantment removal is needed. Use it to removal Vital Boon to heal the player and remove an enchant from an enemy.
  • A great number of unlinked Assassin skills can be used as escape moves.

[edit] Equipment

[edit] Usage

Cast Critical Eye, Sharpen Daggers, Assassin's Remedy, and Vital Boon immediately before combat. Try to stick to that stacking order as much as possible to protect the most vital enchantments with less vital ones. Vital Boon in particular should always be cast last.

While in combat maintain Vow of Strength and Conviction as much as possible. If taking more damage than usual Armor of Sanctity can be used to survive.

[edit] Counters

  • Any slowing effect will greatly diminish the effectiveness of this build. Even crippling will prove difficult to remove if applied before reaching a target.
  • Enchantment removal will limit this build to auto-attacks and Conviction. Survivability will still be high but damage will be lacking until enchantments can be reapplied.
  • Watch out for skills that target enchantments such as Desecrate Enchantments and Melandru's Arrows
