Build:R/any PvE Beast Master

This beast master build deals large amounts of single target damage without sacrificing the pet's survivability or mobility; fits into any kind of team build but will benefit from cracked armor and additional support for the pet, such as Strength of Honor. It also provides an effect that is similar to Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support, as Strike as One can be used upon entering a fight, which makes your pet teleport to a mob, causing opposing melee NPCs to ball up with casters.

Attributes and Skills

Equipment

 * Dire racing beetle pet.
 * 5 beastmaster's insignias.
 * Rune of superior vigor.
 * 2 runes of vitae.
 * Either a crippling "I Have the Power!" spear of defense with a shield of fortitude or an insightful "Hale and Hearty" staff of defense.

Use

 * When entering the area click on the number next to the pet's name to open the pet control panel. Use it to make your pet attack them.
 * Use Strike As One when your pet does not already stand in attack range to the target.

 * Increase your pet's damage by using the pet attack skills.
