Tap each threat level to view Merlin’s threats
Good combos for Merlin include his Arcane Stance's vortex to pull an enemy into an area, immediately followed up with an eclipse to ensure they are marked and take the extra damage or are at the least a little bit zoned.
In Ice Stance, Blizzard to slow, then Frostbolt on the slowed target to proc the extra 20% damage.
In Fire Stance, Dragonfire to reduce enemy protections then Radiance to capitalize on this.
