Okay, well, I didn't think of this build, but I haven't seen it anywhere else, so I'm just gonna put it out there and see what everyone thinks.

Balthazar's Spirit, Dismember, Critical Chop, Executioner's Strike, Disrupting Chop, Shield of Regeneration, Mending Touch.

Axe Mastery - 16
Protection Prayers - 12

I would think it'd be obvious why Balth.'s Spirit is there if you know what it did, but just in case you don't, it gives you Adrenaline and Energy every time you take damage. With this combined with the +9 regen. and +40 armor from Shield of Regeneration in addition to the two conditions removed every four seconds on Mending Touch, you've got yourself a force to be reckoned with. Not to mention its damage and interrupt capabilities.

Drop Balthazar's Spirit and Shield of Regeneration for Lion's Comfort and whatever.

1. Don't post real questions on this forum. There's no one here but us trolls and morons.
2. It's fine. You're going to take more damage while you wait for your energy to fill up, and SoR might run out or be stripped, leaving you with no defense, so maybe you should take some other skills in Tactics or Strength. Most people who do that use balthazar's with healing spells and warrior tanking skills.

Or you could just bring succour and have a monk or wammo cast life bond on you.

What will you do against enemies that drain your energy?

Hopefully, the team can fill in your 'hole's in your defenses...

Don't make a warrior that can deal with anything on his own [unless you're farming, then it's fine]

For PvE, this is under assumption that you're bringing henchies or PuG people...

Self - Heal, not needed. Now if you want to bring something like Plague Touch or Mending Touch, that's a conditional heal which I think is fine. But you only need ONE...

You're half prot-monk, where the heck is Rebirth?

I'm NOT inviting you to my PuG...

If you're going to bring an Elite, at least make it something that can do damage. Defensive elites are for non damage types [monk or mesmer anyone?] Eviscerate, Triple Chop, or hell, EVEN CLEAVE would be a better choice than an elite heal... [which is for monks anyway]

I'd find some way to get Bonetti's Defense in there when things get ugly. [and if you're doing your job properly getting all the enemies on your toes, then trust me, it can get VERY ugly...]

Aside from that, your build choices are fine. Critical Chop, Disrupting are good for stuffing casters and attempted heals. Exe. Strike? A staple, few things are better...

remember, your build resembles PvE so you don't need [well, maybe now you do since enemies run when near death] things like frenzy or sprint. Hope it helps! ^_^
