Due to the diminishing returns, if you are not yet 810 CP, spread CP out in the listed locations as evenly as possible to maximize your gains per point spent.
Champion point % round down, so keep that in mind. If you don’t reach the next threshold percent, that CP point is doing nothing for you.
PARSE TIME – STAMINA WARDEN BUILD
A couple of minor changes that will maximize your parse:
- Use Relequen
Rotation stays the same! Everything stays the same!
