Classic power reaper spin to win playstyle. Generally speaking, this plays like:
- Step 1: Prep (with abilities/wells)
- Step 2: Spin
- Step 3: Repeat
Gearing
This plays quite tanky and comfy. There are some modifications below to adjust.
- Berserker's Coat, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Berserker's Boots, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Berserker's Gloves, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Berserker's Helm, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Berserker's Leggings, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Berserker's Shoulders, Superior Rune of the Scholar
- Backpack: Dragon's
- Accessory 1: Dragon's
- Accessory 2: Dragon's
- Ring 1: Dragon's
- Ring 2: Dragon's
- Amulet: Dragon's
- Weapon A1: Greatsword, Berserker's, Superior Sigil of Force, Superior Sigil of Hydromancy
- Weapon B1: Sword, Berserker's, Superior Sigil of Force
- Weapon B2: Sword, Berserker's, Superior Sigil of Air
- Relic of the Thief (Fireworks is also an option)
Alternatives and why...
- Cheaper/non-EoD option: Swap Dragon's for Berserker's
- Higher risk/higher-rewad: Swap Dragon's for Berserker's
- Dealing with percentage-based damage? Swap Dragon's for Berserker's
- Not comfy enough? Swap Scholar runes for Vampirism (only do this for Open World, as it will over-burden your healers in some raid scenarios)
Build

Rotation / Notes
- Pull enemies to melee range with Spectral Grasp or Spectral Grasp
- Hit enemies with Death Spiral (Greatsword 3) to inflict vulnerability (and increase your crit chance)
- Hit enemies with Chilled to the Bone! to inflict chill (which grants might, life force and nova explosions every time you hit them)
- Go into Reaper's Shroud, drop an ice field with Executioner's Scythe
- Use Soul Spiral in the ice field
- When out of shroud, focus on life force generation with weapons and Your Soul Is Mine!
- Dual-swords are provided as a utility option. If you don't own SotO, use axe/warhorn instead.
- Sword 1/4 will heal
- Sword 3 provides rapid movement (sacrificing health to move again)
- Sword 2/5 generate additional life force (note: sacrificing health for second use does not build life force)
Crowd Control
You have several options:
- Grasping Darkness (Greatsword 5)
- Executioner's Scythe (Shroud 5)
- Chilled to the Bone!
- Spectral Grasp
