This is the condition variant of an old but popular build without weapon swaps. The ranged nature of the build allows higher damage uptime and a full set of Ritualist's gear improves survivability. This build lacks self-boons for solo play.

    • If you need energy for CC, use autos during the Fillers.
    • If you have excess energy, use Icerazor's Ire during fillers when its available.
