I saw that most war that going into the deep mission (luxon elite mission) run knockdown build. I never run a build with any kd before so i need some help. I am interested in sword and axe build. Also i am thinking of using hammer but never used hammer before so a build is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Works nicely. I tend to stay away from Shock, as Exhaustion is annoying.

Every warrior in the Deep has to have KD skills if not they they are pretty useless. I too never used a hammer before the Deep but find it very fun to keep somebody on their butt the whole time while the casters kill em. I use this build I came up with...probably sucks by most standards but I survive and keep em on their butts. I don't do much dmg whatsoever also. I'm there to hold aggro and KD. BTW bring an icy weapon at all times!

Auspicious Parry
Counter Blow - the first 2 skills keep them on their butt
Hammer Bash - I save this for when I really need a KD and Counter Blow is not charged.
Heal Sig
Endure Pain
Bonettis
Dolyaks
Watch Yourself

*there is an increasing number of warriors in The Deep that are Sword or Axe that use shove as their only KD skill. Half the groups I was in kinda Flamed them since they could not keep foes on their butts. But the Sword\Axe warrior as so much more survivability though.

my tanking build for the deep is quite simple

cyclone axe (great for grabbing agro)
eviscerate {E}
bonettis defence
watch yourself
shock (yes i knowit causes exhaustion, but it can be handy)
tenais wind
healing signet (just in case)
rez sig (never leave home without it =D)

axe around: 11
tactics: 11
air: doesnt really matter, so rest in here, or strength if you rather it
