offhand 5 energy
dual 5 energy
flourish 5 energy

no points pooled into strength equals 2 energy per recharging attack skill compared to 6 energy as W/A @12 strength,and even then with W/A after the first use of flourish, your second attack chain application, your standing waiting for flourish to charge/rinse/repeat

your rank in critical strikes depends on your energy gain here (providing your using either a guaranteed critical hit skill such as [skill]Critical Strike[/skill])
people didnt have shadow prison and shattering assault before nightfall

Combo's were longer with longer recharge. Flourish was pretty good
of course with the current LOD combo it's bad, most of those already have got a recharge of ~5 seconds

I haven't read this word per word but Warriors don't have 4 pips of regen only 2 and if we you use zealouse daggers then that takes away one of them.

thats also true. lack of critical strikes not only lessens the chance of getting a hit,but also the energy gain of a dual attack.auto attacking for a few seconds should be enough to continue normally but is by any standard and imo incredibly inefficient

But Tiger Stance sucks.
It is only used for sin spikes and it is nowhere near viable anywhere else.
