Usage
Engaging biggest group and starting with Hundred Blades should pump your adrenaline. Keeping spamming Watch Yourself to help your party and conditioning with Sever Artery. Using Thrill of Victory on damaged foes. Utilizing Galrath Slash when its ready for combo with Final Thrust. Plague Touch to ease my monk's job when conditioned, especially when blinded, dazed or crippled.

Variations

 * When the mission or situation asks for it, bring Distracting Blow instead of Plague Touch.
 * For better energy management use Counterattack instead of Thrill of Victory, it's better for high level foes and keeps your energy intact. In this case change for Strength 10+1, Tactics 10+1+1, Swordsmanship 11+1. It's possible to bring along Flail instead of Plague Touch for quicker adrenaline bumping, in case you won't need anti-conditioning.
 * For these variations is not fixed secondary profession. They use only Warrior skills.
 * Works great with Infuriating Heat. Consider bringing a party member with this one.

Counters
}}
 * Any anti-adrenaline spells like Soothing Images, energy-degen skills like Malaise and also Quicksand can make your life harder. Especially when fighting undead in Desolation.
