Stances are not the only source of blocking.


IMO with Asuran Scan and a high rank you will probably find Wild Strike to be slightly more effective. The actualy hit will do damage in the same ball park as a deep wound and you do get the added benefit of it not being blockable. Normally I love deep wounding attacks but you can kill quickly enough with the wild strike version of the combo to not worry about DW.

If you run into a foe using enchants to block then the Golden Fang version has only the lead attack as reliable damage. With Wild Strike you have both your lead an your offhand. With Asuran Scan those are enough : )

In practice, Stances are seen way more often than block spells, and for those instances one can have Rip on a Hero bar.

If you're not worried about blocks in a particular area, by all means slot Fang. But do swap out Golden Fox for Unsuspecting if you do, with Asuran Scan it's just hilarious
