Introduction
Power Catalyst is a slow-ramping, fast-paced Power DPS build that passively provides your group with boons, with decent self-sustain.
Build Fundamentals
Activate Hammer 3 as soon as you enter each Attunement to activate each element’s spinning orb: This provides you with their buffs and deals damage around you.
The Attunement Rotation Loop is: Fire Attunement
Air Attunement
Water Attunement
Earth Attunement
Use Relentless Fire
Deploy Jade Sphere
Shattering Ice
Deploy Jade Sphere
Only release Hammer 3 Orbs with Grand Finale once all four of them are active.
Build Specifics
Catalyst gains energy by hitting enemies, so make sure that Hammer 3 orbs hit one or more targets to ensure that you have enough energy for your Deploy Jade Spheres.
The rotation deploys a Jade Sphere once per element. To make sure you have enough energy to do this, use Deploy Jade Sphere
