Ripo war

auspicious parry
deadly riposate
riposate
heal sig
sever artery
gash
final thrust
rez sig


A standard riposate warrior, great for pve pugs.
just throwing it out if some new people are looking for a build to try out...

attr will be something like.

13-14 swordsmanship (12+1 helm..major or minor rune)
13 tactics (12+minor)
throw the rest in strength

Never ever Tank, not even in PvE.

how do you do enough damage to kill anything?

its melee kill your hitting in high 60's with ripos and getting some adrenaline from auspicious parry...just use sever,gash,final..

and casters??? seldom you would see a map that has melee monsters as a majority. your build is inefficient in dealing damage consistently to a target even if it is a melee. It requires the target to attack you in melee in order to deliver the damage you states. Your goals are to finish off a target ASAP, not lengthening the engagement which is what the ripostes are doing for you. And lastly sever artery is redundant since deadly riposte already inflict bleeding for you.

....this is just a 1 on 1 warrior build imo

yea, I don't like riposts but for a riposte build it's not bad....

this is a 1 v 1 melee build tho heh u can tell :S so kinda pointless

Riposte builds are for warriors that try to justify their GW skills through 1v1 instead of cooperation.

It's sad, my e-peen is only justified with my Treasure Hunter title.

Ripostes are for farming. End of story.

Ive seen auspicious parry run in some pretty competative high up gvg observes.... but not the ripostes.....

Yea Parry is a pretty good skill to accure adrenaline...against Martial opponents.

One could use it to charge the silly Sever->Gash->Thrust combo in 2-3 blocks.

Thread is turning into a tank argument. And for the record, tanks suck.
