Build Usage

• Aim at the enemies and cast Rest & Rage in night form since the night forms mend and main makes the enemies go to sleep which will make it easier for you to land a finisher.
• Make sure every enemy in the room falls asleep so no alert can be raised and affect nearby rooms.
• Kill these enemies quickly since Rest & Rage does have a limited 30-second duration.
• If the enemy is not dead on the first hit do not attack them and wait until you can recast Rest & Rage on them again.
