Buffed 100b+SY+Scan+ShoH+StrOH will always be better than whatever DS build you can come up with.

High AOE damage + fast recharge of SY from multiple hits = win win win

Not with how things are now. Takes seconds to blow up a mob so you are better off killing than making sure SY! is up all the time because dead mobs are dead. Alternatively you can grab an ES and keep stuff down permanently which is also more useful than having SY! up all the time.

DS is a crappy damage build, it gets pwnd by melee hate too hard unlike the alternatives that can maintain SY! as well.

P.S: That's like saying "It's not a good Warrior build if it doesn't have SY! on it!".

I think thats the key. Using Ascan and Steelfang with DSlash , BH and flail is a great option to a DS SY! . It changes a support build to an offensive one with the same elite.

Especially when you deal around 100 dmg a hit with the DSlash/Ascan combo that you can spam on your targets. You'll see enemies drop real quick. Sometimes too quick.

100dmg is patheticallu low compared to other Warrior builds that also don't rely on a 10a skill.

Meh. Spamming WWA and BH is kinda fun. Though I guess 100B is more effective.

The DS build discussed is pretty solid. It's well balanced between adrenaline and Energy use and allows for decent felxibility (as shown by the alternate skills swapped in and out). That and it's a fun build.

100B will wipe out mobs very quickly, yes. But this is still a solid build.

It still gets the job done, namely in 3 to 4 hits.
