Rotations
⬥ This guide serves as a baseline and rotations may change depending on adren from critbuff, temporalanomaly resets, teams speed and enrage.
⬥ For this setup, it's highly advised to have energising4 on Magic armour and having either blackstonearrow or swh spec applied, can be forgone if enough invokelordofbones stacks after p1.
Wars
Melee Start: dba spec → sezk spec
Phase 1
Magic Start
rezk spec + smokecloud → sunshine + adrenrenewal → gsonic → fsoa → gconc → (autocast exsanguinate) tsunami → asphyx + runic_charge → wm → gconc → powerburstofvitality + omni → wm → smoketendrils + disrupt → gconc → wm → (reflect → gconc → wm)
Melee Start
rezk spec + smokecloud → meteorstrike → swh eofspec → sadaptivestrike → berserk → gbarge → overpower → gflurry → chaosroar → cane → rend → overpower + disrupt → varanussmercy eofspec → assault → (devo / reflect → overpower)
Phase 2 and 3
Gorilla: icebarrage → icebarrage
East Crocodile: combustlunging → runic_charge + dbreath → basics → cade right before scarabs explode utilize kerapacswristwraps dbreath, combustlunging and basics to kill the crocodiles then swap to incitefear, while clicking the faster side statue
Notes:
⬥ Utilize naturalinstinct sometime after gorilla then build up to cade and back up, then utilize adrenrenewal and divert during croc handling to get a dba spec up before the blessing is deposited
Amascut
meteorstrike → sadaptivestrike → berserk → barge → swh eofspec → overpower → bloodlust gflurry → rend → bloodlust cane → gfury → overpower → bloodlust assault → pulverise → rend → overpower → chaosroar → ezk spec → bloodlust gflurry → rend → overpower → punish
Notes: utilise stalling and releasing around 5.4M boss HP to avoid nulled damage.
Phase 4
This phase varies by base and team, on master+ teams it's best to immediately kill 4 scarabs and throw 2 in each portal then utilise prismofsalvation / surgemobile / divemobile / reflect / gchaincaroming / icebarrage to handle dogs and click both portals
Amascut
Start with at least 2 bloodlust stack meteorstrike → sadaptivestrike → berserk → gbarge → overpower → bloodlust gflurry → chaosroar → ezk spec → punish → overpower → (varanussmercy eofspec) → cane
Phase 5
Around the time both solo charges are done and both middle fragments are at 50%, prepare with: meteorstrike → adaptivestrike → berserk
As Tumeken's reform starts, move next to Tumeken and wait till 'GET OUT OF MY WAY' → (tumekenslight spec) → cane → (cane) → overpower → ezk spec → assault → gfury → overpower → punish → improvise
Notes:
⬥ It's important for G1/G2 not to move in front of the boss, until the last interceptor has moved back into charging position, this allows for continuous charging for the fastest phase time and skipping 1 jump.
⬥ All other charging roles need to swap positions with max 1t delay as well for the perfect charge.
⬥ Click middle when charge is 1t off, filled or 1t after filled on the same tick that the green lines appear on the floor.

meteorstrike → sadaptivestrike → berserk → tc core gbarge → overpower
Non Jump
bloodlust assault → cane → adaptivestrike → naturalinstinct → amascuthead + swh eof → adaptivestrike → pulverise → meleebasic
Jumper
overpower → gfury → surge + dive → tc + bloodlust cane → tc + pulverise → click + overpower → click + chaosroar → bloodlust assault → click Tumeken
Note: for TC to work while jumping you need to set your target cycle to max weapon distance, otherwise just click all the mages instead for a 1-2t slower jump.
Clones
gsonic → gsunshine + adrenrenewal → gconc + powerburstofvitality → gchaincaroming → tsunami → runic_charge + dbreath → fsoa spec → rubyaurora + asphyx → gconc → omnipowerigneous → wm → improvise → on last tick meteorstrike
