Can I also use this build as a Warrior/Ranger?

If I can, is this build good? And if that is, why is it?

Thanks,

Austin



Edit: Nevermind, just noticed the build had expertise, and thats a ranger only skill.

Ok new question, can I make that build as a W/R, and would it be good?

what are you doing? pve? pvp?

ok heres the problem:
unless im mistaken the build that you showed us from wiki is useing heave expertise skills to evade attacks. the warrior can not make effective use of these skills because they cant put ranks into expertise. so teh build is rendered ineffective.
you could modify the build somewhat but you just dont get teh effective evasion that it used to have.
so in short: NO. It would not be a good idea to try this build as a w/r because you could not use the main skills.

The point of the swashbuckler build is to keep spamming energy sword attacks and fuel them with energy from Flourish. Flourish gives low return with 0 Strength but that is alleviated by Expertise. Now if you put 13 in Strength (that build had 13 Expertise) you'll gain back 6 energy per skill, which means that those three attacks will cost you only 2 energy.

The build would work if you put those points in Strength instead of Expertise, and of course replace the Expertise skills with something else, for example adrenal attack skills.

And of course if you're using adrenal skills instead of energy attacks, there's no point in Flourish. At that point it becomes a different build.

The point is to use energy attacks while the adrenaline attacks charge up. Not "instead". "And".
