Usage

 * Use Watch Yourself to provide energy and support.

 * Use Spear of Lightning with Anthem of Flame to inflict burning and damage.
 * Use Cruel Spear when necessary to inflict damage and deep wound.

Variants

 * Instead of using Spear of Lightning and Cruel Spear, consider using Stunning Strike, Barbed Spear, and Merciless Spear as the optional slot to have a more condition-oriented pressure build.
 * Because Cruel Spear's conditional deep wound may be dodged easily and sacrifices an elite because of it, consider branching off to 8 Command (8 Command, 8 Tactics, 8 Leadership, 12 Spear Mastery) to use Go for the Eyes and Vicious Attack. In addition, you can also consider using Anthem of Guidance or Crippling Anthem for an elite in the Command attribute.
