COMBAT GUIDE
Opening sequence: your first moves
Level 60 · two-handed weapon · Seal of Command, Repentance and Unsealed Wrath · one durable target
- If assigned the Crusader debuff, judge Seal of the Crusader on the pull.
- Activate Seal of Command and start swinging. Watch the stored-seal counter alongside your swing timer.
- With stored Command stacks ready, change to Seal of Righteousness. Allow a melee attack to connect before switching back.
What to use next
- Watch time left on the stored seal. A late switch can lose the stored attacks.
- Read the actual hit event before returning to Command. Equipping the other seal alone does not release stacks.
- Follow your group's judgement assignment. This seal drill isolates one mechanic; weapon speed and mana also affect a full encounter.
PATCH NOTES
What changed
The November notes describe Unsealed Wrath storing a seal for 15 seconds, up to three stacks. An attack landing with a different seal releases them. Vengeance has a separate five-stack limit.
