please rate/ give advice on my pve w/r

Basically my build is focused on being able to tank almost anything while doing decent damage.

Attributes
strength- 10+1+1
swordsmanship- 11+1
wilderness survival- 10
tactics- 1+1

Skills
power attack
galrath slash
final thrust / troll ungent
tiger stance / i will survive
melendrus resiliance
watch yourself
dolyak signet
resurrect signet

What i want advice on is whether to bring troll ungent or final thrust and whether to bring tiger stance or "i will survive". Also whether you think it is worth bringing resiliance or whether i should use a warrior elite such as dragon slash or defy pain.

Thank you in advance for your insight

I made a build for W/R about the stuff you want your build to do. I think it's on the 2nd page now. It has an axe though. And btw, your helmet should be in the highest attribute, so you get the maximum attribute bonus.

Waste of an elite for PvE imo. In almost any PvE situation, W/X would work fine. Instead of MR bring dragon slash, final > troll, TS > IWS.

for higher levels would you advise using a defencive elite or an offencive one? I mainly use this build because in many areas later in the game i have 4-5 conditions/hexes on me. Also monks usually dont bring hex removal so this is how i defend against my weakness

looks like poor damage to me

I disagree with the statement about damage because it is basically what an offensive warrior would use before factions. Also if the damage is so bad suggest how i can do better while not sacrificing my ability to tank.

I don't see any stances in you tank build.

Okay, you have 2 stances, Tiger Fury & Melandru's Resilience. These are not tanks stance though.

Why do you have a rune for tactics even though you have only 1 tactic shout, that really doesn't even do much (Shields Up - at level 2, oooo).

Getting rid of Final Thrust for Troll Unguent will reduce your killing power by a lot. 1) you don't get to do 2x damage if your opponent is <50% max health. 2) Troll Unguent takes 2 or 3 seconds to use, which could have been used to kill things instead.

If you have final thrust and are not suffering from hexes or conditions, you have no healing at all.

Where is Riposte, Deadly Riposte?

I would take Troll Unguent and Final Thrust instead of Tiger Fury or "I will Survive". Reason? Tiger Fury disables all non-attack skills for 5 seconds. Without Final Thrust, you only have 2 attack skills.

I say drop Wilderness and put stats into tactics.

Also using riptoses will probably pointless concidering that i have 2 in tactics. Also i find riptose useless unless farming because they require a melee attacker which is very restrictive.
