Curse

I have only been playing a few months, yet know a fair bit on PvP. I just wanted some help and suggestions on my general pvp build (usually TA/RA) for me. Here is my build a friend recommended:

Strength: 12
Axe Mastery: 14 (Minor rune)

Warrior's endurance - Elite
Frenzy
Power Attack
Protector's Strike
Dismember
Lion's comfort
Bull's strike
Ressurection signet

My hp is 620 and i have 24 energy.
The problems i am having with this build is dying reasonably fast but with good damage - although i added lion's comfort it does not seem to help too much.

So any suggestions or improvements on my build would be appreciated.

Thanks

Take a cancel stance for Frenzy. When you see you are taking too much damage, use it. I think that you should take out [protectors strike] for [rush]

There's no space on the bar for Lion's Comfort; Protector's Strike spam is too good. If you want Lion's Comfort, you'll have to drop your Res Sig.

You're dying fast because you have no cancel stance..
Don't replace anything from the wiki build because you need just about every skill. Besides, it's not often you get a glad point without a monk or rit, so Lion's Comfort is just taking up space. Ressing someone with full health is alot better than a little self heal.

lion's comfort for a cancel stance ims ffs
also stop running +energy.
4 survivor's or sentinel's + 1 stonefist
weapon mastery, strength, sup vig, clarity, vitae/restoration
basically read the wiki and instead of running your friend's absolutely brain-dead shitty variants just run the main build. it's the main build for a reason.

Should run shockaxe instead.

Did you just say 'yet know a fair bit on PvP'?

except for that sentinels armor is bad

Yep as was stated, take out [lion's comfort] and put in [rush].

If you do this, you're now using the GvG version.

Basically you're dying fast due to not having a cancel for frenzy.

As soon as your target runs or you take more than a tiny bit of damage, cancel frenzy with rush.

well that's one way of putting it and it would be fine for early arenas, but for more organized pvp you should really start to pay attention to where people are casting. If they all of a sudden turn to you you're going to get spiked.

sentinel's armor isnt bad.

Lux Aeterna · May 08, 2009, 04:31 PM // 16:31

Have it on chest/legs currently, do not like the HP loss but it is quite nice against nukes, put it on for HA where lots and lots of pressure is from AoE.

Since you have [warrior's endurance] to keep your energy up, try dash as a cancel stance instead of [lion's comfort]

Lux Aeterna · May 12, 2009, 10:46 AM // 10:46

Dash is the worst frenzy cancel in the whole world.

Would only ever use it on the omegaspike caller build.

Thats Too Bad · May 12, 2009, 12:50 PM // 12:50

Im pretty sure Primal Rage is the worst frenzy cancel in the whole world.

Yeah W/A WE's seem to gone extinct, its [frenzy][rush] nowadays.

Oh, and wars with self healing? :S only [lion's comfort] on W/P Stunning striker.
