it doesn't get much more epic than this..
I know AB and RA are both pvp.. but i farm them like pve :P
all jokes aside, this is my new fav gank build lmao..
A/W
12 ham ham
12+1+1 crit
3 SArts
vamp/ebon hammer
furious spear set for adren gain
backbreaker
crushing blow
mighty blow
frenzy
dash
deaths charge
way of the master
res
its fairly deadly lol/.. the 4 second KD is way more than enough to land 4 solid 120+ damage hits, not including dw.
its fun, fun-ny, and um... fun-ky? idk try it lol.

I prefer to run DE over a small prot like you said, 4 secs is one hell of a long time to be near enough useless, and reducing all damage by half for 8 or so seconds sounds pretty tempting.
Screw what everyone else run's i run what i want, wether people like it or not

and i understand your point. all im saying is that its not as common as it once was. im not downing your build, simply saying that in RA/AB (where this is played with), i haven't really faced DE for a while, and if i were to face it, i would treat it like Disciplend Stance or Balanced Stance, and just lay off of the attack skills until i felt it was safe, or simply pressure another, unprotected target, till i could simply step to the monk while his stances recharged.
this is by no means a stellar build, but its worked fantastically with a little bit of well used gameplay.

my guildies and i were goofing off, trying to think of silly, but somewhat effective builds that would more or less confuse people when they got killed by them, and they came up with this wacky build, where you use Backbreaker, then switch to daggers, turn on flail, and unleash a kd dagger combo for a wtfpwnage kinda thing :P.
my laptop controls kinda hinder me from pulling off all that and still be able to hit ESC so i can weapon swap fast enough to pull the dagger chain, so i just inversed the W/A Backbreaker build, and added WotM for some fun crit damage...
so long story short, you're exactly correct! :P

I've seen the same build, and for some reason, works better. Oh yeah, that's right, frenzy on sin = pwnz0rs meh!
In all honestly, you can use some defense against blind, because last i checked, [blinding surge] is still gud.

does no one see that i have dash? i dont understand what the big deal is about frenzy. sure, if you get hit while its on, but the idea is that you shouldn't even be a target thanks to kiting and long range or backline adrenal gathering. simply turn dash on in case of danger.
as a side note, i've never ever died using frenzy on this build, or any other build i've ever had frenzy with on a sin.

Igor's right, you realy don't need to spec hammer mastery, BB will give you a 4 second KD anyway and that's all you need. Build adrenalin, warp in, KD, swap to daggers, and go nuts. More damage, bleeding, poison, deepwound and you get energy and more adreline back, doesn't sound bad now does it ?

one of my responses addresses that exact build already in this thread. i never said this was better, and you can't tell me this is unoriginal, just because you two may have tried something similar. its not really fair saying all that seeing as no one's posted something like this. also, with WotM, its not uncommon to land BB, Crush, and Mighty at north of 140 damage a piece, and i've dropped casters at full hp many many times.
again, its not stunningly good, its just something different to try.

Exactly Kaida. I play warrior primarily, this is more of a 'fun' build, that happens to actually deal decent damage. :P

Depends on a BB build,
Actuall BB with daggers sin has a far superior spike to any warrior,
running some crappy wotm build...dont see any point...imho...running the original BB sin who has daggers and can instagib as good if not better then the old SP sin is much more fun to me.

Sins using Hammers. Ridiculous enough to work once in a while

and while i agree, my laptop hinders me from hitting esc fast enough to weapon swap and still pull all the important parts of the combo off clean 100% of the time. no, there isn't much of a reason per say, outside of fun..
but it IS a game
