I tried Dragon Slash last night on the few runs I did, and I think HB's is still faster as far as swords go. So I'm back to my HB + 4 adrenaline skill combo. It does help that I don't have to take Watch Yourself (I broke down and bought a set of legionaires) the extra attacks speed things up a bit.

quick question: ive been using a healing hands build recently (galrath, final, wy, dolyak, frenzy, HH, sprint, mending) and i have no problem clearing the front of the cave with spiders and dryders, but as i went deeper in the cave i got body blocked by the next spawn of spiders, so i was stuck with 3 spiders and a dryder which drained / shattered my enchantments and i was down before i could kill him.

i was wondering what you do in a stiuation like this, and was thinking of taking out WY for heal sig just in case

Even in the cave, I always pull the dryder before spawning any of the spiders. Same technique used in the front, nothing to it. Otherwise, my HH/Live Vic/BSpirit build would be worthless.

So I've been playing with a Grenth's Balance W/N to try to kill the Skale. Tough, and timing it right is kinda nerve wracking, but it works. You can clear the whole beach and the caves, but it goes a bit slower than just doing the spiders, driftwoods, and the mesmers (forgot the name). I just take penetrating, cyclone, frenzy, watch yourself, dolyak sig, healing sig, grenth's balance, and either shields up or plague touch or an attack skill. The drops haven't really been much better (at all), but it is a fun challenge and neat to see one tank kill so many level 28 necros that have 2 elite skills (like the rest of the beach, I guess)...

So the build is still the same or has it been updated?
If so, can someone post the updates to the build + Axe Variant? Thanks

I'm having pretty good success with:

W/Me

Insp - 2
Str - 2+1
Axe - 12+3+1
Tac - 12+3

Triple Chop (E)
Cyclone Axe
Penetrating Blow
Penetrating Chop
Watch Yourself!
Healing Signet
Physical Resistance
Sprin

~800 damage with one Triple Chop. (note that the two spiders to the left are glitched, they're actually at the same location as the other spiders, they just appear to be off to the side)

The original build still works fine, and actually became more effective when they fixed Flurry a while back.

In the editing process. Didn't realize I decided to open my guild window and friend's list during the filming.

Oops?

Doylak signet + Physical resistance isnt a bit too much? Since Physical resistance can be up all the time. You should take an other attack skill I think
