hey guys
been working on a new build latley and after a few weeks of testing i must say its impressive. i started doing the elite mission the deep but didnt want to switch to hammer, so i came up with this handy build. at the same time, i play a ton of random arenas pvp and the same basic build still applies.

Random Arenas & PvE build:

w/e or w/ ( whatever )

16 tactics
13 sword
3 air or 4 strength

optional ( 15 tactics, 14 sword )

1 - Thrill of Victory - 42 dmg
2 - Final Thrust - 35 dmg - under 50% hp 70dmg
3 - Shove - k/d & 79dmg
4 - Distracting Blow ( optional i guess, but it's like my amex card- never leave home without it )
5 - Shield Stance -21 secs 75% block incoming attacks ( use before heal sig/rez sig )
6 - heal sig - heal for 179 hp
7 - shock - kd 20 dmg OR deadly riposte 79dmg & bleeding for 21 secs - i like d/r better after more testing, sins and warriors go down much faster.
8 - rez sig

key to build is not really showing what u have until your enemy is around 60% health. then ToV, Final, Shove, distract ( if needed ), back to ToV to finish them off.
basically off FT, shove, ToV u do 191 dmg with a KD .
important note - do not use Shove before Final Thrust because you lose all adrenaline

The Deep Dweller - used for running the Deep Elite Mission with a sword warrior.

1 -ToV
2 - FT
3 - Shove - first k/d
4 - distracting blow - ( optional ) protectors defence or watch yourself
5 - shield stance - needed imo against kanaxai
6 - heal sig
7 - balanced stance - too many k/ds not to bring it imo ( optional protectors defence or watch yourself )
8 - shock - second k/d

feel free to add comments and suggestions

( click to enlarge ) extra 60 hp is needed on weapons IMO as well.

enjoy !
