Default Re: My first build... need opinions

hello my advices are in order to play the game past normal diff cos normal is cake w/e u try
u need to spend a pt at least in ignore pain and hamstring in order to get Ardor , i like ignore pain i would max that , also i dont like War wind at all has longer cooldown than batter and batter is helluva better with its upgrade , Ancestral horn maxed without serious -Recharge items or refresh wont do you much as it has a real long cooldown . Last thing for warfare Crushing blow and counter atack might be good for Normal difficulty but their horrible for anything further i would only put 1 point in battle rage and leave it as it is .

About ur Defense spec now

you should 1 pt everything for instance thats critical .
1)1 pt in battle awareness and maxed its upgrades its a must past normal difficulty
2)i wouldnt max rally but i would max its upgrades especially inspiration real fast cos it doesnt only gets u serious energy regen boost but it also enhances duration of rally itself make it an option real often
3) i wouldnt max adrenaline either just 1pt but that personal fave tbh i think it doesnt do me much in late epic and legendary diff but definitely max its upgrades as allrdy seen in ur build
4) Batter! i cant live without it get a shield with decent dmg get batters upgrade even at lvl1 both can upload some serious dmg in area of effect and slow down enemies enhancing ur toughness , i wouldnt max batter till late though and only 1 pt its upgrade with +Skill gear would have decent arc of effect.
5)Quick Recovery a must too for late epic-legendary i would have it maxed too but not too early , would pump it as u see suffer in toughness .
6) last thing i would keep shield smash,disable and pulverize to 6/6 with +Skill items ( so if i had a +4 from items i would only have them 2/6 each cos they dont pay very well for each skill spent past 6/6)

focus mainly in defense tree for start, get weapon training and onslought from warfare tree and leave the rest for real later.

thats how it works for me i hope i helped

In my opinion u have more point in some skill that don't need to max for have a great effect...

See this build :

http://www.titancalc.com/TitanCalc.a...-6-1-0-0-0-0-0

If u don't like Quick Recovery u can leave 1 point on it and activate Counter attack ( 1 point ) and make a choise between Hamstring and Armor Handling , if more Damage max Hamstring and put 1 point in armor Handling if u need defence go max Armor Handling or if u use a club try Concussive Blow .

My english is so poor but i hope u can understand my idea

No, you don't need hamstring to get ardor.

armor handling is a total waste of points. by the time your 50+ you will have enough str to use your eq, if not then you have gone seriously wrong somewhere.
