Power Soulbeast

Power DPS Soulbeast offers very strong burst damage making it a good pick for fights with short phases. It also offers group support with Leader of the Pack Spotter and Frost Spirit

The Longbow variant offers higher Burst Damage where Power Soulbeast shines, while the Greatsword variant pulls ahead in longer phases as it offers higher sustained DPS.

Build fundamentals

Always stay merged with your Pet Beastmode and flank enemies to benefit from Hunter's Tactics.

Remember to use "We Heal As One!" whenever you face downtime in DPS as it extends all your boons and activates Essence of Speed if you have Quickness.

To help with pulling mobs in some fights you can use Path of Scars. Be careful though as it can for example also pull Seekers on Vale Guardian or the allied Slubling on Slothasor.
