Unless you put the PvE bit on the end it defaults to the PvP version. Happens with all the skill tags.

Who said it was out of 100? You didn't specify, so people like to +1 to their post count by making stupid comments. The PvE build is fine.

1. I'm not well-qualified to give PvP ratings, but the PvP build doesn't look like any sort of improvement over the generic shock-axe build you see all over the place.

2. The PvE build gets a 2 out of 10. No "Save Yourselves!". Very little leverage. No knockdown. In short, you've got a build that does mediocre, (mostly) single-target damage and absolutely nothing else. It's barely better than a henchman build.

He said he was Proph/EotN only -> no SY. Read the thread first?

Sorry must have missed that part. The build remains 2/10 for warrior builds overall, but is perhaps a 4 or 5/10 for warrior builds limited to the Proph/EotN skillset. If SY! isn't available, SY! isn't available; but you should still be able to produce a build with direct damage, leverage, and KD.

If it's only 5/10 for a Proph/EotN War then why don't you suggest something better? Other than putting [[Brawling Headbutt] in for a KD there really isn't much you could do with it.

I like [body [email protected]] over [executioner's [email protected]]. Somehow that 1 adren feels like a lot.

1. Brawling Headbutt is a good start.

2. If your best stance options are Frenzy/Rush, unless you've got someone with SY! on your team, it's time to seriously consider replacing both with drunken master.

3. Axe is a fundamentally bad direction to take.
3a. Even without a combo around it, Hundred Blades (without any attack skills) is probably good for more DPS than the axe build. Maybe dust off the old Sever/Gash/Final Thrust chain.
3b. Even without Whirlwind Attack, Earthshaker could be made to work halfway well.

4. How is it that someone who has only Proph/EotN is asking for Dervish builds in another thread?

It's called changing your build when you know there's a lot of non-fleshy enemies.

I am aware of that but the only thing that works is energy based attacks for sword.
