Is it possible to have a warrior/monk with a swords attribute of 20 and have it do good. I was thinking having the rest of the attributes in protect but i really dont know =(
If anyone has any builds or anything it would really help =/

No. The max you can have in an attribute is 16 - 12 base, 1 from helmet, and 3 from a superior rune.

And warriors shouldn't use Protection spells (that is, excepting Mending Touch). Stick with condition/hex removals, and draw on Watch Yourself! and Heal Sig for defense/healing.

Then go kill stuff.

EDIT: However it is an incredibly good idea to max out Swordsmanship, to deal the most damage possible.
Currently, I'm running this in PvE...

You can get your sword over 16, but i'm not sure you can get it to 20. To do this you would have to max your stats as Alex stated above, but then you would need to enhance yourself further by getting things like a shrine blessing (stats +1) and eating a birthday cupcake, and putting a +1 swordsmanship (20%) mod on your sword and hoping for that 20% chance to hit... not very practical or reliable for the trouble...

Uhm Alex. Your bleeding is coming from where? You kind of need Sever Artery or something to use Gash.

EDIT: What update added bleeding to Crippling Slash? Looks like a decent elite now.
