Captain – Red (DPS)

Last updated: U46.1

Overview

Red Captain or Lead the Charge is a must for just about any instance/raid. They provide the support (buffs) which are required to clear the raid bosses, but apart from that, they can help out with decent DPS as well. After the recent update they are not horrible at solo dps for your weekly and other activities.

While levelling I preferred to use Stand alone instead of a soldier. For larger groups you can use your soldier to distract the larger enemy or quickly get quest objectives.

Stat Priority

For stats you’ll focus on Critical Rating -> Finesse/Physical Mastery -> Tact/Phys Mitigations -> Vitality

Trait Tree

Virtues

Main priority is damage virtues, but stats are easier to get now and there is a lot of finesse floating around. You can replace Wit, Valour or Confidence with Loyalty or Honour to reduce your finesse and improve mitigations and morale.
