Practice

In the beginning of combat, cast Symbol of Blades (Sword 2) > Switch to Hammer > Hammer auto-attack (1). "Feel my wrath!" on cooldown. DON'T INTERRUPT AUTO-ATTACK CHAIN (dodging/shouts don't interrupt the chain)! Cast Spear of Justice (F1) and Traps (Procession of Blades & Test of Faith) always on cooldown after a full auto-attack chain. Remember to keep moving for your Seaweed salad buff.

 If possible, drop your traps before the fight begins (they're off cooldown quicker = more dps).
