I grew bored of my old warrior skillbar...so I decided that I wanted to try something new for PvE (to me, at least). Of course, I could use the skillbar that comes with the GW box or steal somebody's build...but that's boring.

Constructive comments are welcome.

Set of Gladiator's Armor, except for a Duelist's Helm and Ascalon Boots; strength req. shield
Swordsmanship: 10 +3 +1 = 14
Strength: 9 +1 = 10
Fire Magic: 10
Earth Magic: 7

Final Thrust
Fire Storm
Glyph of Energy [E]
Hamstring
Inferno
Resurrection Signet
Rush
Ward Against Foes

Basic assumed usage: Hamstring a target. Cast Fire Storm on target. Attack target with normal sword attacks, slipping in an occasional Inferno. Cast Glyph of Energy + Ward Against Foes before target recovers from Crippled. Repeat. Use Glyph of Energy in combination with spells whenever possible. Final Thrust whenever adrenaline is built up. Rush to catch up to a target.

Interesting I suppose, I would have to say throw meteor in there for extra damage, and use an offhand instead of a shield when casting.

That should have you covered. This was an old PvP build. There is a current discrussion and a link to the old idea with a video.

BTW- I like the old skill bar better

Bump.

I'd like a critique of this D; It's actually kind of...fun? In PvE, I mean. With henchies.

I just tried a similar build in Random Arena. To my surprise, it actually worked quite well. XD

I had:

Sever Artery
Gash
Hamstring
Fire Storm
Glyph of Lesser Energy
"Victory is Mine!"
Healing Signet
Resurrection Signet

I know. That's why I was surprised it actually worked decently. Of course, that's against poorly organized RA teams.

And as koneko said, the combo is pretty fun to run.
