I wanted to have scourge healing so bad but I wasnt sure whether it was worth the slot(or I would have the mana)

What do you think?

a 11, 10, 10 makeup would probably be better, then get a rune or use the helm to get your swords up 1 more.

Scourge Healing is a great spell - it's something that I always like to have somewhere on a build, but can't always find the room.

You're right that this build is energy tight - between Frenzy and Judge's Insight you're going to be relying on Zealous to keep you full. Dropping Holy Strike and Smite would free up some energy, and would actually increase your damage as well - you're going to be dealing about as much damage per hit with normal weapon attacks as either of those deal, and normal weapon attacks are just as fast or faster. Smite might have been good if it added damage, but it actually replaces your weapon damage, making it worth nowhere near the 10 energy it demands. Holy Strike? You're giving up two Frenzied weapon swings to cast this, and that's nowhere near worth it.

The core is solid though - Judge's Insight, Scourge Healing, Frenzy, and adrenaline. Should serve you well.

Peace,

is strength of honor not worth it?
it would add another 7-9 dmg per hit at the price of 1 pip of energy.
