Rotation

If you're farming mobs in PVE or doing PVP, the same principle and rules Supply, so then at the beginning of the fight, we want to start with using the Arcane Smite and Arcane eruption which will debuff the enemy and do damage, so then we use the warding plon and then right away, we switch to our second weapon the War hammer, and then from here we keep using the shock wave and then right after the rest of the two skills, the main idea behind this play style is to do a lot of damage, but first of all dealing damage and debuffing the enemy with the flail and then switch the War hammer for even more damage or just general stuns which will be very useful for group PVP or general PVE like Expeditions and Etc, this flail and WarHammer weapon combination is one of the new tank builds for this meta, this setup will give you insane armor and just general tankiness while at the same time giving you the option to do damage and hold aggro in PVE content or on the other hand annoy the enemy in PvP content, this Flail tank build works great for both PVE and PVP.

Gameplay

First of all for the void Gauntlet, we have the first q spell called the Oblivion which creates a circle around you and your teammates inside the circle will be getting 20% damage increase, but on the other hand, your enemy standing in the circle will be taking Point damage every second, and a really nice thing to do is while standing in the circle, do a bunch of medium jumps and because of the perks, we have selected we will be getting plus 15 stamina each jump, so this will give us the ability to dodge more enemy attacks and gain more stamina at the same time, so then for the second ability we have a petrifying scream which when using will unleash a void scream and this will stagger and rote enemies in front of you and then lastly we have a third ability which is called the orb of the K and you can fire this orb which can go through your targets and each enemy that it hits it will deal decent damage and reduce their damage observation and then later that orb will come back and heal you for a few seconds, and lastly, if you hold the right Mouse button you can regain more Mana, but in exchange your health will go down, we would only recommend to use this mechanic if you really are at full health and your Mana potions are on cool down, so then use it for a second or two and then you should be good to go, but as for a non- Healer build you should use this mechanic super carefully, so then for the second weapon, we have the ice Gauntlet and your q spell is called the ice storm which all enemies standing in it will get damage and slowed and the more enemies you hit the higher damage you will get then the r ability is called the eye shower which when using will create an ice wall and if players go through it it will stun them and this ability is very useful in chopping your targets, and then lastly our third ability is called the IE spikes which when activating creates this trail of spikes in a straight line which deals damage in AOB range and if the target is below 30% Health a lot of times you can one-hot him, and the way it works that if you're too close to the enemy when you're you're using the ability the eye spikes won't explode with the highest damage to the enemy.
