"I-way My-way":
1) flurry - speed boost
2) tiger stance - speed boost
3) sun/moon slash - double hit, double heal; alternates with dragon slash
4) dragon slash
5) "for great justice" - adrenal boost
6) "I will avenge you" - last resort speed boost; use when res sig is at 90%
7) vigorous spirit - self healing
8) res sig

Just a fun RA build I wanted to share - it's no good vs kiters/conditions/blocking evading unless you sub one of the speed boosts out.

The idea behind it is to use speed boosts to get the most out of "for great justice" and vigorous spirit, and perhaps to keep the poison/interrupt ranger or D/mo busy by not dying as soon as they'd like.

Start off by putting vigorous spirit on yourself (last) and/or allies, then use flurry to half charge the adrenal skills before using "for great justice" and tiger stance and spamming sun/moon slash + dragon slash.

When tiger stance ends use flurry or iway to keep the pace up since "for great justice" lasts much longer than any of the speed boosts.

edit:
It's amazing how much hp +15hp per hit can net you over time - even assuming that you hit once per second, you net 15 x 30 = 450 hp for the duration of vigorous spirit at the measly cost of 5 energy and 1 second cast.

If you had to do that with healing sig at 11 tactics (minor rune figured in) that would be 450/130 = 3.5 uses and at 4 second recharge that would be 3.5 x 4 = 14 seconds downtime.
