A damage oriented frame that offers great survivability.

Features

Pillage requires 400% ability strength to achieve 100% defense stripping. Use any combination of Archon Shards to bring your ability strength above 400%.

Play Style

Warding Halo will mitigate 90% of incoming damage. Popping Warding Halo while being attacked increases its damage absorption pool. It also grants 3 seconds of invulnerability when cast (can't be recast while active).

Pillage should be cast whenever shields are depleted as it offers the most reliable energy drain , taking full advantage of [Brief Respite]. The equipped [Fleeting Expertise] is Rank 2 on purpose. It keeps the Ability Duration low enough so Pillage has a duration of 0.8 seconds. allowing for "quick" shield gating, useful at higher levels. Add more ranks to shorten the duration for even faster shield recovery.

Blazing Chakram is your lifeline. Spam this ability as much as possible. It not only offers a 400% increase in damage to enemies marked by the ability but it has a 100% chance to drop health orbs and a 35% chance to drop energy orbs from each marked enemy.

Arcanes
Arcane Steadfast is great if you find yourself spamming high drain abilities.
The second arcane can be whatever you want. I use damage buffs here but it can also be used for energy regeneration, or anything else.
