Skills:
Backbreaker ~ nice long KD
Counter Blow ~ nice low adrenaline KD, dont use if caster is casting
Crushing Blow ~ deep wound, use after backbreaker
Holy Strike ~ 80 dmg vs KD foe use after knockdown
Soulstone Strike ~ 80 dmg vs KD foe use after Holy strike
Mighty Blow ~ some adrenaline based dmg *can change this*
Watch Yourself ~ i never leave without it
Flurry ~ adrenaline gain, (im not good enough to use frenzy )

- use flurry to gain adrenaline

it is good but dont leave without ample healing power, very fun!

Berserker stance works well with backbreaker, try that.

thanks for the tip i have been wondering about using it but havent got it yet , i will definitly try that

anyone else?

I recently made a hammer warrior for PvE because I got bored of my axe. The trouble I had was the skills were so expensive, I don't wear Glad's so my energy was 20, and with the skills being 10 energy damn.. I had to stick to mainly adrenaline skills. But still it was great fun causing knockdown -> deep wound -> mighty blow. I got myself a 15^50 hammer that does earth damage and customized it, so my damage was huge, I was hitting for over 100 to enemies above level 20. The eles were hitting away at a boss for ages and it wasn't dying until I came along and starting bashing it.

It was also a strength based build, I maxed my weapon and then strength. But the trouble was in PvE a lot of people expect you to be a tank. When I was an axe warrior I invested heavily in the tactics line and brought stances, heal sig, and could essentially survive without help from the team, and nobody cared that I only brought a couple of attacks. Bring a hammer warrior that knocks down the enemy for 4 seconds or 2 seconds, and does more damage than an ele, and they think you are useless, they would rather have someone to stand there and take a beating while the ele stands there for 8 seconds casting a spell.

I will try your build though thanks.
