Playstyle

Your Q-slot offers the choice between a single-target ability and an area ability. The single-target ability is better in 1v1 scenarios, while the area ability deals damage to all targets within range. Both abilities apply one Heroic Charge to, while hitting three or more targets with Heroic Cleave applies two charges.
Heroic Charges increase your move and attack speed. You can have a maximum of three charges on you at any one time. Many Sword abilities can use Heroic Charges to enhance their effects.
The W-ability lets you spin in a targeted direction, and can deal damage in three instances. Damage can be further increased by consuming a Heroic Charge. Its a great tool to reposition yourself during a mob encounter, while dishing out damage.
Your main ability, with its long-range dash, lets you dodge and pass through crowd control abilities while dealing damage and buffing your basic attacks for three seconds. It does not utilize Heroic Charges, but with its bonus attack speed and damage it works well with Heroic Charges anyway, further buffing your auto-attacks.
The cowl has an additional damage spell that helps take down groups of enemies quickly.
The jacket can be used to regain health. Its best used in combination with your W-ability or with the increased attack speed from the E-ability.
Your boots have a sprint ability that can regain a small portion of health quickly while providing increased movement speed.
An enemy encounter should look something like this:
- Use your Q to begin combat and gain Heroic Charges. Repeat until you have at least two charges.
- Use your W to deal damage or change position.
- Use your E when you need to dodge a crowd control ability, or when on three heroic charges to maximize the damage output of your subsequent auto-attacks.
- Use your jacket in combination with your area abilities or buffed attack speed when low on health.
