You have no idea what high damage output means. Try again.

HB is NOT a sucky elite...combined with Live Vicariously and Vigorous spirit you can really get some good self healing going without loosing much damage. It is also great for gaining adrenaline when using a 10/10 adrenaline mod.

As for your build, you really want to re think it. As others have said you usually bring utility skills for your secondary such as condition removal, knockdowns, stances, etc. Also max out your weapon attribute, you will do more damage with that than from the ele skills. BRING A REZ. Also try to stick to single target attacks as much as possible, do to the AI mechanics.

amidst all the 'elitism' attitudes.... (which I must agree with)
you can actually do pretty good mob damage with ...conjure flame...hundred blades...inferno.... you just need some good healers on your team...as this takes up your healing spot... (and your energy pool) that is if profecies is your only chapter... if thats the case Hb is pretty much your only sword elite...

do what works now...and in a few months you'll see what these others are talking about...

Inferno can do ok on a warrior, just as long as you don't bother with tactics.

12+3+1 Swordsmanship
8+1 Strength
10 Fire

Conjure Flame
Dragon Slash {E}
Sun and Moon Slash
Res Sig
Inferno
Flail
Enraging Charge
"For Great Justice!"/Standing Slash

I do agree that using weapon spells such as Splinter Weapon are a better option than Fire Magic. Also.. Liquid Flame is probably a better offensive fire spell than Inferno. Maybe even Breath of Fire.
