My PvE warrior has been an axe warrior from day one, but I've been meaning to try out sword mainly for Dragon Slash.

And now this happens:
"For Great Justice!": decreased Energy cost to 5; increased adrenaline gain to 100%.

Holy crap! Won't DS now recharge itself with every hit while under FGJ?
Since I haven't capped DS yet, I can't test this, but the mere thought of this has my jaw dropped to the floor right now.

Any Dragon Slashers out there care to throw a couple pennies at me?

yes

[card]Dragon Slash[/card] would recharge itself with 14 or more swordmastery

However consider using [card]"For Great Justice!"[/card] with [card]Enduring Harmony[/card] this way the skill will last for 30 sec instead of 20

... because SS Fear Me! spam isn't broken enough.

Also, Dragon Slashers will like it.

I wanna try somethin like this.

Signet of Aggression now recharges in 5 seconds and gives 2 strikes of adren.

^^^ Enraged Charge would be better. It gives 6 adren (10 strength).

Then all it takes is 2 hits under FGJ, and DS is charges (6+2+2=10).

I'm still trying to figure out how the fill the rest of the bar though, not to mention what to do during the 15 second cool down.
Here's what I have so far:
-Dragon Slash
-For Great Justice
-Enduring Harmony
-Enraged Charge
-???
-???
-heal/defense???
-rez

I've been tinkering around with this for the better part of the day, and here's what I've come up with:

-Enduring Harmony
-For Great Justice
-Enraged Charge
-Dragon Slash
-Sun and Moon Slash
-Flail
-Heal Sig
-Rez Sig

The startup looks like this:
Enduring Harmony --> FGJ --> Enraged --> strike --> Sun and Moon --> DS
DS is fully charged after the second swing, then can be used on every single swing for the next 25 seconds or so (which gets especially sick if you put Flail up).

The FGJ downtime looks like this:
DS --> Sun and Moon --> Enraged --> DS --> Sun and Moon --> regular swing x3 --> DS --> Sun and Moon
Enraged will be recharged by the time FGJ expires, and serves to help keep the hits going. Sun and Moon reduces the number of normal swings needed to charge DS to 3, and DS then recharges Sun and Moon.

Anyone have any suggestions on possible tweaks/improvements?

Backbreaker + FGJ + any IAS is a perma KD.

Actually, for PvE, why not run Earth Shaker, Whirlwind Attack, and the new and improved Crude Swing? You could have a near-perma AoE KD, which would be a feat indeed.

Beat me to it. I tried a similar build in an AB the day FGJ was changed, with "Fear Me!" xD I really hated it though. I missed Eviscerate the moment it left my bar.

But still...It's a hell of a shout now! I actually brought "To The Limit!" onto a bar recently.

I haven't used For Great Justice very often, never enough room on my bar, I probably should try out that DS spam though, but would the DS spam work better in PvE or PvP? Thats what I want to know.

PvE, probably low-level PvP too.
Too much SoD, B-Surge and Wards flying around to make DSlash work in high-end PvP.
