Greetings fellow Arcadians ,
This will be a more in depth Guide on how to play/what Skills to use as Warrior/Priest as Support.

Offensive Buffs:
Berserk, when using Berserk provides nearby Party Members with Morale Boost , increasing there Damage by 7.9% for 30 seconds.
As this is a Group Buff and you will be ,most likely, be placed in Group 2 you need to switch Groups and then Buff , switch back to be most effective.Attached down under is a simple Makro( taken from another Forum post) that switches your Raid Position( you can adjust the Numbers to your needs , currently it switches raid slot 6 with 12 and vise versa).

Stuns and Interrupts:
Stuns and Interrupts is (as you lack damage buffs, in comparison to other Supports, for your group) your most important task. As for example in the current High End Instance Realm of Forgotten Legends (Rofl) most monsters have a decent AoE or annoying Fear/Dot/Debuff that can ,most of the Times, be countered if they are interrupted while casting it or stunned.
Suprise attack, storms at the Target and knocking it down for a short period of time.
( You have to stand atleast on a 60 range to be able to use that Skill)
Interrupting Strike, interrupts the Targets Cast and increases the received Damage of the Target by 5% for 10 Seconds.

Terror, forces an enemie to flee for 21.6 seconds.
(As far as i remember , doesnt work in Rofl but usefull in other instances!)
Blasting Cyclone, knocks down all enemies around you.

(Shares Cooldown with Tambourine,Mystical Music Instruments go for the whole raid, for starters the "normal /old" ones for party are also fine)
Siege War Skills:
As you will be,most likely, be put in second Group your main Siege War Skills will be Midnight Ritual or Tactical Smash to debuff the Boss/Big Monster Pulls, if you have a DPS in the 2nd Group go for StormAssault or Fire Training.
Storm Assault,increases the Patk/Matk ,Attack and Casting Speed by all Party members in range by 15% for 20 seconds
