User:Stexe/Build:D/any Vow of Stexe

Vow of Stexe combines the protection from Vow of Silence and the power of Stexe to unleash one of the most impressive builds ever designed.

Equipment

 * Full Radiant armor with Major Mysticism, Minor Scythe Mastery, Superior Vigor, and runes of attunement were vacant.
 * "Guided By Fate" (Damage +15% while Enchanted) Vampiric Scythe of Enchanting.

Usage

 * Keep Mystic Regeneration constantly maintained before battle to prevent the vampiric weapon from causing too much damage.
 * Once near battle cast: Extend Enchantments, Mystic Regeneration, and Vow of Silence in that exact order. Casting out of order will negate the effects or prevent continued enchantment casting.
 * Attacking involves using Victorious Sweep and quickly following up with Mystic Sweep and Eremite's Attack. Because Mystic Sweep and Eremite's Attack are activation time based attacks, they can be use in quick succession after Victorious Sweep for moderate spike damage.
 * Continue to keep an eye on the duration of your Extend Enchantments and be ready to recast your series of enchantments when it, and consequentially, all the enchantments on you expire.
 * Ping your Health bar when Vow of Silence is not active and health is needed to let your monk(s) know they can cast freely on you.
