From there continue the rotation of Purifying Light>Puncturing Sweep x5.  Refresh Ritual of retribution as it expires on the front bar.  Refresh Stampede and Barbed Trap at the same time from the back bar (or you can dynamically double bar swap to independently refresh each of them).  Use Comet as it becomes available. 

After 30-35% Replace Puncturing Sweep with Radiant Oppression. 
After 10% only use Barbed Trap and Radiant Oppression.
