Shock with Sword
God Apprentice
Does anyone have a build for a Shock War/Ele that uses a sword? I couldnt find anything using Search. Thanks.

If using a sword with a lightning mod, you can always opt to include Conjure Lightning and Hundred Blades for a nice damage boost as well as a quick adrenaline boost when fighting multiple foes.

1. You dont use sword warriors in 1 war builds, usually i run 2 wars, either axe and hammer or axe and sword, when you adrenaline spike the deep wound is taken care of by evicerate.
2. Sever+Gash sucks, its a waste of 2 skill slots putting it on your bar, standing+dragon is much better.
3. Final is a finishing move, in the build i posted you can practically spam standing+dragon once you get full adrenaline - its also just meant for damage for my adrenaline spikes which i use. standing>dragon>standing>final
4. Have you even tried my build?

How does the Sever+Gash combo suck? The whole point of it is for Deep wound, which can drop your opponent's total health by 100 or more by itself. Simply doing Standing+Dragon Slash will only put out extra damage per strike, but with a DW on a target, all of your attacks become much more devastating and effective. But if I'm wrong, and it really does suck, then you should tell the top guilds that use it in all of their sword Warriors in both GvG and HA; they must have all made a big mistake.
Anyway, here's the build I use when running Sword Shock warrior:
W/E
12+3+1 Swordsmanship
12+1 Strength
3 Air Magic
(you can also make it 9+1 strength and 9 Air if you want to use the focus)
Sever Artery
Gash
Final Thrust
Frenzy
Distracting Blow
Bull's Charge {E}
Shock
Res Sig
Simply use Bull's Charge for that annoying kiting caster, then unleash your Sever->Gash->Final combo. It would help if you had an Axe warrior attacking with you for more spikability, though.

i posted a build which i use when i run two warriors, axe and sword, where they adrenaline spike and sever+gash totally sucks there.
Also Could you please name a top guild that uses a sword warrior in HA, that uses sever + gash.
Time is running [OUT] currently uses a sword warrior build very similar to what i posted in their nr/tranq build they use in HA.

... Last of Master
Sever
Gash
Final Thrust
Charge!
Frenzy
Shock
2 whatever.
I don't know what medium you intend to use this build in, but thats the basic. Shields Up! is good for GvG. Personal preference.

In addition to Last of Master, as Loshi said, today I saw Rus Corp running a Sword+Axe warrior smite build, with the sword warrior using Sever Artery+Gash and the Axe warrior running Evis+Executioner's.

Firstly i asked for HA guilds - RUS are mainly gvg
'Well, two DW's are always better than one, especially if one gets removed.' That comment is just retarded... Ofcourse 2 DWs would be better, but why would you even use two?? Its just a waste. Your spike would have to be so damn slow.... spike is suppose to be fast so that it doesnt get removed and finally you cant really spike with sever+gash. Its just smarter to run the war i posted with a standard shock axe for spiking, than to run a sword warrior with sever+gash for adrenaline spiking - if you wanted to apply pressure or w/e you would use sever+gash. sumasage
I dont play play pvp much so i dont know the element of spiking other than it is fast damage. Can Silverwing Slash + Sun and Moon Slash + Dragon Slash{E} + For Great Justice be a good for that? well it's not fast but can deal huge dmg for 20 secs.

I dont like running dragon with final because you have to dump all your adrenaline and dragon slash is best when you are chaining adren skills.
