[edit] Equipment

[edit] Usage

• Go up to a caster.
• Use Auspicious Parry, then "Fear Me!" once it charges. Repeat this combination as you execute other skills.
• When they cast something you feel you can interrupt , hit Distracting Blow.
• If the enemy is using a skill that isn't a spell, see if you can use disrupting chop to disable it for 20 seconds. Use sparingly, because you need to conserve adrenaline to consistently use Fear Me.
• Use revealed Hex when hexed with something damaging such as empathy. Try to wait out skills like Diversion.
• Resurrection Signet is to res fallen party members

[edit] Counters

• Hexes that stop adrenaline
• Snares
• Blackout empties adrenaline
• Any anti-melee hex like Spiteful Spirit /Empathy
• Conditions, mainly Blind and dazed

[edit] Variants

• Cyclone Axe instead of Disrupting Chop for greater adrenaline gain.
