ok so this is a build that i was thinking bout for pvp or pve

swords 16
tactics 10
strenght 9

hundred blades {e}
deadly riposite
riposite
sever artery
gash
final blow
healing sig
endure pain

i dunno how this works but it looks pretty good
u have to use hundred blades to get most of ur a cause u can get 2 at the lowest which is pretty good but once u get going u dont need it. use rip/deadly rip when u think is good sever is here just incase u cant pull of deadly rip and then u can gash, this worked wonders against shiro so i think it can go well if u dont like endure pain sub it w/ watch urself it work the same way because the main purpose of endure is to get ur health up so that u can survive long enough to use healing sig but i like a barbed fellblade w/ this build because the bleeding usually wins my battles also u can use vigorious spirit instead of healing sig/endure pain. try this its really fun

(sry bout my bad grammar im just too lazy 2 type correctly)

Personally I don't like Hundred Blades. If you want to be a "Tank", then perhaps take Gladiator's Defense?

I'd take Dolyak Signet instead of Endure Pain.

Final Blow is Final Thrust, right?

Also, I'd get one of the Ripostes off and put in a Resurrection skill, possibly Rebirth.

If you're too lazy to type I'm too lazy to read it...or it is just too painful to read.

It seems pretty conditional. If you aren't fighting melee then the ripostes are worthless, if your opponent doesn't bleed then 2.5 skills are worthless (sever, gash, bleed from deadly), 100blades is OK but there are better elites, it needs a rez.

Maybe go 12+4 sword, 12+1 tactics, 3+1 strength and drop endure for rez?

thanx for the feed back and yeah i know against all nonbleeding foes its useless and against all spellcasters its not great, but i feel it works nicely in the UW took out 3 aaxte quickly with this build, have fun trying this out if u have money to spend or already have the skills and armour and all that jazz


hundred blades is to charge up my adren' skills like sever and gash

Hundred Blades is just a bad elite choice, that's all.

You can't run Ripostes in PvP... its just pointless. You might annoy the odd warrior or assassin who go for you... but the chances are the rest of your team is already dead if they're doing that.

If you're talking about PvE, why not use "Watch Yourself!" ?

If you're talking about PvP, you've got to rework that entire skill build. Ripostes and other such defensive skills have no place in PvP, while speed boosts and IAS skills are a requirement. Bring a res sig along no matter where you go, unless it's solo farming.
