Default My favourite Shrine Capturing Build

First I'll start by saying hello to you all. This is my first posting of a build. I have spent many trial runs and tests for my own builds mainly from things I've read from what ya'll posted. Mainly learning the reason(s) for using some skills over others and stuff like that. I try to be original if this appears a copy of a build currently or previously posted I apologize for wasting anyones time but I've gone through most and haven't seen it......so without further ado here goes...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a build I use for every AB area when using my tank. It works well for me and modified depending on the group I find myself in and what not. This build can solo any shrine in the event you get split from your group somehow.

Attributes: Str 10 +1 +1
Axe 10+2
Tac 9+1
W/S 7

Armour: Dreadnaughts with the runes as above + sup vigor and absorption
Thats what I use but I'm sure any warrior armour is fine.

Skills: Executioners Strike; Furious Axe; (Optional Attack); Bonettis Def;
Troll Ungent; Heal Sig; Melandrus Resilience (E); Dolyak Sig

As stated in the title this build is for capturing shrines. It is also very effective against groups as this enables you to withstand heavy heavy condition and hex groups aswell as large amounts of dmg while the rest of your group blows them away. With all the condition and Hex lovers in PvP Melandrus is a no brainer. With Melandrus and Bonettis there is more than enough energy and healing isn't an issue as the sig and Troll add healing during the 10 seconds left to recharge Melandrus. If a monk is in my group than I'll drop troll and add more dmg output as hopefully the monks added healing more than makes up for the loss of its healing.

Weapons: I use 4 weapon sets depending on the shrine I'm after or profession I'm killing.....

1: Icy Archaic Axe of Def
Bronze Shield

2: Dragoncrest Axe
Bronze Shield

3: Totem Axe
Bronze Shield

4: Icy Archaic Axe of Defense
Skeleton Shield
Arm +16 +10 vs Lgtg
Dmg -5/19%

The totem axe in my sets it's mainly used when i need a boost of energy incase my energy is being stolen it's an instant boost of 10 Energy. The skeleton shield set is especially for the elite elementalist shrine for the extra Armour. Weaknesses are quite evident such as lower than normal dmg output; and succesibility to a good interrupter.

I know it was a long written build my next one, I'll trim the fat. I have thick skin so let the criticism flow openly. I look forward to seeing some of your replies to this build...until then see you on the battlefield.
