Sword builds just don't work well on Koss. Eviscerate on an axe build doesn't do well with him. T-Chop/Cleave(yeah, I know...) work well with him because of the low energy/adrenaline cost. It's AI. Their strengths are speed and lack of emotion. Their weakness is no awareness of skill synergy. Set your bar accordingly, and toss out of your head builds YOU use well, as he will NOT use it the same. Honestly, most of the time heroes would do better with a 4-6 skill bar.

I also find warrior heroes to run axe builds better than sword builds
Here's what Jora is running at the moment:

[skill]Triple Chop[/skill][skill]Furious Axe[/skill][skill]Dismember[/skill][skill]Executioner's Strike[/skill][skill]Agonizing Chop[/skill][skill]Flail[/skill][skill]"Watch Yourself!"[/skill][skill]Rez of choice[/skill]

- I used to have Cyclone Axe in there instead of Furious Axe, but heroes prioritize and spam Cyclone Axe too much, so you run out of energy too quickly while other skills (mainly Dismember and Executioners) get neglected.
- I used to have Heal Sig in there instead of Agonizing Chop, but heroes SUCK with Heal Sig. They cast it at the most retarded times and situations, and it usually ends up doing more harm than good. I also tried Lions Comfort, but I found that they barely used this skill at all. So I just said "scew it" and took the heal skill out and added more damage.
- A possible variant is switching out Agonizing Chop for Disrupting Chop. Heroes use both quite well from my experience.

I tried running a DS build on a hero warrior in the past, but was not happy with how they used it.
