Playstyle
Role: DPS 
Use both the Mantra of Solace and Mantra of Potence when on top of your group to upkeep quickness on them. Prioritize using both the Torch 4 charges when possible, and then use your Tome of Justice every 20 seconds or every other time you use the Torch 4. Only use the 5 > 4 > 2 in Justice Tome to get the extra page from using 3 pages in a row, but conserve your pages afterwards. Place symbols and Purging Flames on your team and the boss to share boons and cleansing.
Skill Priority:
- Mantra of Solace/Potence to upkeep Quickness
- Purging Flames
- Torch 4
- Tome F1 > 5 > 4 > 2
