Anyone uses Raotn on a hammer warrior? I think it could be intresting to chain
lose all adrenaline Kd's. Ex: hammer bash,crushing blow,hammer bash *raotn* and repeat.
If you got a hammer build that uses this skill,I would be happy to know

I was using it for awhile after nightfall came out. I cant be bothered to switch off my axe now, but its quite useful. it even makes lion's comfort good.

Yeah its quite simple to use/set up.

Build goes like this:

1st slot:
Rage of the Ntouka

2nd slot:
Mighty Blow
or
Yeti Smash
or
Staggering Blow

3rd slot:
Hammer Bash
or
Heavy Blow (if using staggering blow in slot 2)

4th slot:
Crushing Blow
or
Pulverizing Smash

5th slot:
Flail

6th slot:
Rush
or
Enraging Charge

7th slot:
Lion's Comfort
or
Healing Signet

8th slot:
Rez of your choice

Thats about it. Works quite well in easy going PvE. Just go 6->1->5->2->3->4....1->2->3->4

I was using a build like that....Charge up your adren normally then start with Mighty blow, then Hammer bash. Right after you lose all your adren from bash, use Ntouka then Crushing blow, then Mighty blow again. End with another hammer bash. I was using Burst of aggression as an ias. The rest is optional.

Why rush? Enraging is better, you get the Adren Gain on first hit.

rush is superior in Pvp because you you can basicly have it up forever, thus making it better agains kiters.

In my post I said either. Rush is better to use against more mobile foes who you have to cancel Flail to catch up with as it does not have the 20 second recharge of Enraging Charge.

plus you can hit rush right after rage anyways, dosnt need to charge up.

Rage of the Ntouka is a viable elite, especially for high end PvP where most monks carry RC nowadays after Lod has been nerfed to oblivion.
Hammer Warrior is all about kds, and Hammer Bash is your kd of choice most of the times. Crushing Blow adds some dmg and the all mighty dw while Mighty Blow or something else contributes to the dmg department.
the good thing about Rage of the Ntouka is that you can have adrenaline when you really need it, like kding a monk fast, RotN+Hammer Bash is your best friend.
dont forget stonefist gauntlets for 2 second kds to keep them up almost indefinatly.

Hammer warrs in PvP tend to bring both.

I'd say rage is better in skirmish formats where you're not autoattacking a lot to charge up more useful stuff.

Monking against them in RA/AB is a humbling experience if you weren't expecting the knockdown chain starting so quickly.

I heard that Earth Shaker was the best Hammer Elite so... yea

You don't actually *do* much PvP do you? Earth Shaker for a long time was the most popular elites on Hammer Warriors.

Rage of the Ntouka is interesting, but really just not as strong as the elite knockdowns.
