Usage
Prep Signet of Illusions before attacking a carrier.
When in range of a carrier, use your damage skills to kill it. When unprotected, it will die shortly after landing all four (and you can get by with missing one).
Use Heart of Shadow to jump up/down cliffs to save time running around and escape from other players.
