Hey guys, I have a W/Mo 20 who has just gotten a fresh new Primevil armor from Factions...
I use a lot of swordsmanchip and mostly adrenal skills, ... My helm gives +1 to sword...
My question is, WHAT Runes, Insignias, ect, should I put on him, Where should I put them on which armor piece?
I do mostly PvE tanking...

Thank You very much!!!

Superior swordsmanship rune on the helm - sups are ftw in PvE, if you're gonna die 75hp won't help you.

On the chest? I generally stick my vigor rune there.
Superior Absorption on the legs, minor Strength on the boots and minor Tactcs on the gloves is my usual PvE rune setup.

As for insignia... If it's a purely PvE wammo, then take your choice of Brawler's, Dreadnought's or - my pick of the three - Sentinel's (after all, you're in Flail all the time... right?) for the armour bonus. In a fight, the bonus armour will likely save more health than Survivor's; and you said yourself you use adrenal attacks (making +energy uselss).

However, if you're gonna go anywhere near PvP with this armour... Get Survivor's.
Also, for PvP, you generally stick with minor swordsmanship runes, and I'd use Clarity rune over Absorption.

Brawler's is one of the best insignias for PvE warriors IMO. You are almost always attacking so +10 armor is good, and if you don't like that I'd go with Dreadnought's because you already have good armor against physical so +10 against elemental damage is good to have.

I put a Sup Absorption on the chest (you get hit there and the legs the most), and I put minor strength, tactics, Sup sword (in my case axe), and a vigor rune (I use a Sup vigor but Major or minor will do) on the armor.

Superior absorption is global, it's doesnt matter where you put it. But I wouldn't use that since it's only affect physical damage now. Use Rune of Clarity instead 20% reduction blind and crippled is better. And as other said, Superior swordmanship on helm, minor tactics, minor strength, and Superior/Major Vigor(whichever you can afford).

As for insignas, I like Survivor for the +hp, good for both pvp and pve, unless your build require high energy then go for Radiant. +Armor is almost useless unless you farm or something, for general play it's not that good, since you already have such high armor as a warrior.

QFT - With the introduction of Enraged Charge and Flail every pve warrior worth thier salt is in a stance 100% of the time making sentinels the best insignia by a country mile.
