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.

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

My e-peen doesn't get bigger by trying to beat warriors 1v1.

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

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.

If you answered all the questions with No, then you stay alive because a tank is saving your ass, you have no idea what a warrior is, and ppl are just beeing friendly.

Cheers. Wrong, I stay alive because of Monks not tanks. Warriors are already passive tanks, what I meant is that Warriors shouldn't ACTIVELY tank because it is a waste of a party slot and skill bar. Apparently you lack any knowledge about Warriors. GB2 Pre-Searing.

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