If you're using sever artery, it's pretty much standard to bring gash. If you want to do more damage, risk bringing frenzy. But as you seem to be more of a tank than a dmg warrior, go for some other damage skill (don't play sword warrior so I have no clue)

Bonettis Defense and Shield Stance are begging to be in there, you might want to consider swaping your elite to Gladiators Defence, you will stand up forever and a day then.

However I am a fan of the stances.

If you want to literally outdamage the universe of tanks, going nuts on sword and tactics with a dash of protection will always help. [you can heal using Healing Sig for quite a chunk if you can reduce enemy damage enough]

12+1+3 Tactics
8+1 Swordsmanship
10 Protection Prayers

If you aggro properly, you won't need team affecting shouts such as Watch Yourself!

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Bonetti's Defense
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Shield Stance
Healing Signet
Spirit of Protection
Rebirth

This would be better than the skill list you posted because I see no good tactics skills at all and more offensive tech. All that offense won't matter jack if you can't survive it.

Mending is junk at higher levels. The spike heal of a 16 tactics healing sig protected by Spirit of Protection with Shield Stance/Gladiator's Defense on top makes it far better than 1 energy degen which would be better off from a Zealous weapon.

Rebirth is definitely the pve king of ressurection skills. @ 10 prot prayer, why the heck not? ^_^

Idea is to use Bonetti's till your energy is full and another stance is available. When that stance runs out, switch back to bonetti's to keep that energy going. what's that energy for? Spirit of Protection combined with Deadly Ripostes and more stance feeding.

Gladiator's and the Ripostes should deal ludicrous amounts of damage and if you have a 15% stance weapon [yay for collector weapons] your damage to your target as well as the mob fighting your Gladiator's Defense will be quite good...
