An evicerate build is your best bet for PvE, so long as you are willing to go axe.

[build prof=W/Mo AxeMastery=12+1+1 Strength=12+1][Eviscerate][cyclone axe][whirlwind attack][executioner's strike][sprint][flail][Lion's Comfort][rebirth][/build]

You can change out sprint and executioner's for condition and hex removal if necessary.

Oh hai,
Use this template with the skills you have, and you should get a good build:

Max out weapon mastery, use the spare points accordingly to your utility skill choice.

Elite Attack

Increase attack speed
Running stance
Utility skill

a few pts in tactics aint a problem since he would get additional healing from Lions Comfort. Having Str at 10 hits a few good breakpoints so id say its fine as is.

either way tho

A Pve build I enjoy runs with a cpl EotN skills.Has the ability to go AoE or 1vs1.

[build=Axe Warrior;OQASEZJT2kgP7gQFsiGWXF8V]

Invest a little time in sunspear rank and deldrimor rank and norn rank you get a mean combo.I realize PvE is rather easy to a point,but I get some nice tanking and dealing out damage against pretty much any type of combat situation you can think of.I start by selecting a target at distance then cast [skill]great dwarf armor[/skill] followed by [skill]enraging charge[/skill].Hit space bar to start chasing them.When I get close I hit[skill]for great justice[/skill] and when I hit them [skill]flail[/skill].Then it becomes choices.Do I need to AoE?I usually hit [skill]triple chop[/skill]immediately followed by[skill]whirlwind attack[/skill].Anything left standing gets a nice[skill]executioner's strike[/skill].Is it a single target?Hit with[skill]you move like a dwarf[/skill]then[skill]executioner's strike[/skill].Use whatever else you want after that.Generally really messes up their day.

I like AoE in PvE, that leaves you 3 choices depending on your weapon:
Sword- Hundred Blades, Whirling Attack, Sun and Moon Slash
Axe- Cyclone Axe, Whirling Attack, Distrupting Chop
Hammer- Earth Shaker, Whirling Attack, Crude Swing

axe has Triple Chop but unfortunatly that's factions so you dont have access to it...
the rest of the bar is the same for all 3 weapons:
Frenzy/Flail(your choice), Save Yourselves, 2 utility skills of choice and res of choice
note that if insisting on using the Axe variant 1 of the utility slots should be an elite. dont have a good 1 popping out of my head since I always use Triple Chop as I do have factions...

I really recommend the Hammer bar as it has 3 AoE attacks that are pretty spammable, both sword and axe have 2 AoE and 1 utility attacks. but its your choice, pick your favourite weapon or whichever is your best weapon right now, or whatever...

Of course, only cowards refuse 1v1, amirite?
