i cant deide between a few combos i would bring into a PvE sword warrior....i was thinking:

Server/Gash: easy and fast conditions on flesh targets

Balanced/Drunken/Desperate: only really useful when balanced is up, but decent damage output and constant conditions

Sun-moon/Dragon: good for evade/block bypass and then you get the extra dmg from Dragon...getting the initial adren can be an issue though.

Any others i should be looking at? i only want a 2-3 skill set...doesnt even have to be a combo really, just 3 nice uselful PvE skills that wouldnt leave me hanging in adren or energy.

I would like to see an analysis as to which is better: Sever>Gash>Final Thrust, or Dragon, Sun-Moon, Silverwing.

With those two above, you should bring either:
Tiger Stance, or For Great Justice, or (Freny and Sprint)

For PvE, you should consider Riposte, Deadly Riposte, and Auspicious Parry if you are in a group and need to tank melee mobs.

Have you thought about Dolyak Signet instead of Balanced Stance?

I don't think Sever Artery>Gash will give you enough damage to use Final Thrust on in later parts of the game. (Yes I know how much adrenaline it takes to use FT). But I still like it better than the D>S-M>S combo (way too much adrenaline).

Final Thrust rocks though, the most powerful skill the warrior has, I believe.
