With stamina being a core part of PvP, its management is very important and so you should first invest into Escape Velocity for extra movement speed while sprinting in combat (default key C), this is particularly important during fights as it allows you to kite enemies and stay out of their range or retreat entirely. Up next you should invest into Recuperation and Evasive Maneuver in order to temporarily boost your evasion rate when dodging and also eventually get access to Springstep which greatly improves your mobility by increasing your dodge distance. The remaining points should go into the Sustained Guard side of the build that reduces the stamina drain whenever you block (default key E). Mental Fortification also helps as it lowers the chance you will be CC'd while blocking which can also be useful at times.

Rotations

Kill Rotation ↴

First you want to make sure that you are in the correct form with Form Of Celerity as this allows you to apply Stagger to enemies whenever you use Overpower.

Once you found your opponent, start the fight with Blitz to deal some good damage while also building Combat Momentum. Continue with Overpower to stagger the target, debuffing their evasion and making it easier for you to deal damage. Follow up with Rupture to apply a bleed DoT that deals damage and also applies Wounded if they move, dealing even more damage after 5 seconds based on the amount of Wounded stacks the target has.

Use Crippling Blow next to trip the player and then use Maim to deal high damage thanks to the extra damage the skill does to tripped targets. Finish off the rotation with Lethal Blow then move on to your next enemy.

Short Rotation ↴

Make sure Form Of Celerity is active before using Blitz to engage before transitioning into Overpower which will stagger the target. Use Cataclysm to trip them and then Maim to finish them off. You can also extend this rotation with Knock Out if you need a few seconds to regain cooldowns.

+* First you want to make sure that you are in the correct form with {{Skill|Form Of Celerity}} as this allows you to apply Stagger to enemies whenever you use {{Skill|Overpower}}.
-* Start by pulling mobs using your longbow to get them to follow you while also building up Combat Momentum at the same time which increases the damage you do. Use {{Skill|Brutal Cleave}} before following up with {{Skill|Cataclysm}} to deal a large amount of damage before transitioning into {{Skill|Maim}} to make use of the extra damage you deal when attacking tripped targets. Finish the rotation with {{Skill|Whirlwind}} and make sure that you position yourself in a way that the last hit hits all enemies you pulled.

-* This is your bread and butter rotation for single target DPS while leveling but it remains very relevant even at higher levels, especially when playing solo. Start with {{Skill|Blitz}} to build up quick Combat Momentum before continuing with {{Skill|Rupture}} to apply a bleed dot before transitioning to {{Skill|Lunging Assault}}.
-* Continue the rotation with a hit of {{Skill|Overpower}} and then use {{Skill|Wallop}} to maximize the damage it does based on the amount of Combat Momentum stacks you gained throughout the rotation. The last skill in the rotation is {{Skill|Lethal Blow}} as its used to finish off a target with its high damage and also reset {{Skill|Blitz}} cooldown by using {{Skill|Reinvigorating Lethal Blow}}. Once upgraded with {{Skill|Consuming Lethal Blow}}, {{Skill|Lethal Blow}} also returns some of your HP and mana.

-* Wait for the tank to gather the mobs and stack them up before starting your rotation! During this time, make sure you are in {{Skill|Form Of Celerity}}. Begin the rotation with {{Skill|Battle Cry}} to buff yourself and your allies, followed by {{Skill|Brutal Cleave}}, which will apply the Staggered debuff thanks to {{Skill|Form Of Celerity}}.
-* Next, use {{Skill|Cataclysm}} for high damage and to trip the targets. If there’s a mage in your party, watch for them to freeze the mobs first, as this will increase the damage from {{Skill|Cataclysm}}. Follow up with {{Skill|Maim}} for extra damage, then use {{Skill|Lunging Assault}} twice. End the rotation with {{Skill|Leap Strike}}.
