Use Merciless Slash to deal a massive amount of damage.(Zen and Force Melt should almost always be used only in tandem). Use Zen, Force Melt, and Cauterize to begin your DoTs.Begin the fight by using Force Leap to build Focus and deal a bit of starting damage.Before the encounter starts, use Introspection and/or Valorous Call to make sure your health is as close to maximum as possible and that you have 30 stacks of centering.Once your target drops below that threshold, use Dispatch whenever you can.Īdditional abilities to consider are: Iconįorce Sweep, Cyclone Slash, and Twin Saber Throw – These are AoE (area of effect) abilities.Ī technique called DoT bouncing can be achieved by using Force Sweep to switch which targets your DoTs are applied to before the DoT ends, which can extend their time and damage. Essentially, this ability does a significant amount of damage but can only be used when the target is below 30% health. If you see that your Focus is getting low, use Zealous Strike to refill it.ĭispatch – Dispatch is a simple execution ability. You should be paying constant attention to how much focus you have so you avoid running out, which will prevent you from using most of your abilities.
Don’t use this ability until you are low on Focus (ideally around 3 or 4) to ensure you efficiently refill your Focus bar. As soon as Zealous Strike is used, you generate 6 Focus. Zealous Strike – Zealous Strike is what you are going to use to generate Focus. When used in synergy with your other burn abilities, Merciless Slash can significantly improve your sustained damage potential. Essentially, this is an attack that bolsters your DoTs. It makes all your burn effects deal 5% more damage for 6 seconds while also making the target take 7% more damage from all Elemental attacks. While the damage this deals is nothing to scoff at, you’re going to want to put high priority on it more so for the buffs and debuffs it causes. Merciless Slash – This ability is one of your most powerful attacks, alongside Force Melt.
The initial hit damage is so minor that it’s largely negligible in most encounters. However, Cauterize is focused more on the DoT aspect. It is similar to Force Melt in that it deals strike damage followed by a DoT. Force Melt is the foundation of the Watchman’s rotation.Ĭauterize – Cauterize is fairly simple but very important. This ability should be used in tandem with Zen every time it becomes available. It damages the target on the initial strike before applying a DoT which lasts 9 seconds. Using Introspection will give you 30 stacks of Centering.įorce Melt – Force Melt is the beginning of all your DoTs. This is less so an ability and more so a resource to manage.
Centering allows you to use certain abilities, such as Zen. To maximize effectiveness, use Zen right before casting Force Melt.Ĭentering – The best way to think of Centering is to remember that all your abilities which spend Focus also generate Centering. Additionally, Zen partially heals your entire group. Whenever this happens, your stack of Zen is consumed. Each stack of Zen makes all burn damage an automatic critical hit.
The Watchman’s unique Zen ability gives them 6 stacks of a proc also called Zen. Zen – This ability is unique for every type of Sentinel. Making sure your DoTs are doing the most damage possible and are active as long as possible is the most important thing for a Jedi Watchman. The Watchman’s strong defensive capabilities allow for something of a safety net when taking damage to make up for the style’s weak burst damage output. They have low burst damage potential, especially compared to the other flavors of Sentinels, but their sustain damage potential is nothing to scoff at. The Jedi Watchman focuses on DoT (Damage over Time) attacks.
