Why would you run a sword instead of an axe for this build? It's like running Cleave while Whirling Axe is best.

the shield can be bought from him and the Sword is a collector's reward from this dude modded with an enchant upgrade, so my gear is by no menas perfect and there are a lot of options for shield and sword, but it works and it's easy
For armor, I use Full Knights with +1 Strength Helm with Sup Strength-, Swordmanship- and Absorptionrune, High Vigor and Minor Tactics

right now, I'm testing, whether it's possible to substitude Healing Sig for Lions Comfort. If that works, I could ditch the points in tactics and raise Swordmanship and/or Illusionmagic but I'm not sure how hard the "Disable all signets for 12 secs" would impact on Dolyak though im confident it might work...
thats going on teh first page

@ False healer.

why Dolyak signet + Physical Resistance?
why Channeling? I've been doing this run with a zealous axe and never find myself having energy problems.

edit: ectos!!

Why don't the smites break aggro? If they don't, then why don't take Triple Chop + Cyclone Axe to kill them faster, the zealous axe will cover the energy cost.

I'm thinking an A/Me could do this if he brought Way of Perfection, Golden Phoenix Strike, and Moebius Strike. Along with the Visages, that's 5 skills. You could throw in Physical Resistance, maybe Feigned Neutrality for even more healing, and a running skill like Dark Escape. Instead of Feigned Neutrality you could also bring maybe Deadly Paradox, to recharge your dagger skills even more.

they will only break agroo if 4 or more of them are taking dmg around the same time and something like that lol

I hit ONE at a time, therefore no aggro

as for cyclone axe + triple chop.... they'll run into the sunset

Default Sword could be better here...

Ok, i have not tried this build as of yet (b/c we never have favor), but have done many fow spider runs with my warrior. That said, what about switching to sword with dragon slash, silverwing, and galrath? We all know sword > axe in that respect, why people are constantly raving about the axe is beyond me . Was curious however if counter attack was NEEDED, because it would absolutely rule to bring an ias like flail with a dslash build...

Idk if you need counterattack, and also, can u keep the dmg to 0's with just the -2/-2 shield + asc armor + dolyak? I would guess this is possible, as you have ~34 armor added with dolyak @ 12 str compared to 40 with phys resist... looking at the energy aspect, u have a slightly noticable decline, but with only 2 energy skills on the bar and a zealous weapon... Will try this tonight (if we have favor ) and report back.

EDIT: ok, just tried this, obv not in uw, but it appears it SHOULD work. Enchants can stay up permanently with no zealous wep required, as they are the only 2 energy skills. As long as i rune my armor to increase strength i should be all set (to get the dolyak to stay up permanently as well). W/o a zealous wep mod, u could go furious...my personal favorite . I'll b in the uw tonight and tell you all how it goes.

the -2/-2 shield is not needed and neither is dolyak + physical resistance. I only use Dolyak and a normal -2 shield and I haven't died a single time.

with a -2 shield i sometimes took 1 or 2 damage, with the -2-2 shield you take no damage at all even if you tank 15 smites.

.... dunno, all you can use is 1 sup absorbtion anyways, try it with a -2 sheild and yeah eviscerate should be good, here but its best sticking to low cost adrenaline skills , if you use phsyical resistiacen or doylak sigit at 40 armor, add in watch yourself and you should be doing ok
