Equipment

• Various spears...you'll want one with increased Dazed duration, one with Bleeding, one Poison, and one Vampiric. The Vamp spear and Bleeding spear should be 15>50 damage increase, Dazed spear should be +5 energy (only need to use this Spear to toss Stunning Strike or for a quick energy increase if you need it for some reason), and the Poison Spear should be -5 energy (switch to this spear to help avoid energy denial effects). At least one Spear should have +5 Armor (recommend this for the Vamp and Bleeding Spears) and at least one should have +30 health (use that for the Daze and Poison Spears).
• Any Shield of Fortitude, with the Inscription you find most useful. Keep as many Shields in your inventory as you like.
• Keep a Longbow in your inventory to build adrenaline from afar.
• Survivor Insignias.
• Rune of Clarity.
