May it be a light for you in CH, where all other lights go out. Yes I am quitting, and I'm posting for people who are looking for help.
PvP. My prime subject. (AT LEAST 50 FOR DPS OFFHAND) This is not directed to levels -50.
In PvP, your main focus is outlasting your opponent while still doing fair damage towards them. What do you need to outlast? Vitality.
Stats: Full vitality.
Gear: Golden blade of (yah), (yah) axe of triumph, (yah) axe of conquest, etc. That and decent regen items should be good (Veer away from Regen Rings, they suck. You're better off equipping a skill ring). You can use a sword, axe, blunt, though axe is recommended by me. For regen, you should have a (Midnight Talisman, Stars, Earth, Heroic, or a Yuletide Ice.) Generally I like to use quest armors, I find energy goes a long way using them. But if you rarely find yourself in lack of energy, go for the shop armors (Flint or Topaz is a NO)
I don't recommend using the Daggers, as you won't have as much strength as you would with a hybrid/dps. Keep in mind though, some DPS warriors can be MEAN. Shoutout to FionaStCroix.
Skills:
Using a sword, you should:
Max Protective Stance.
Max Shatter
Max Double Attack or +15 levels on yourself.
Max Pummel/Giant Swing.
Extras Defensive Formation
(With Rogues using Riposte, use skills until it runs out.)
Use Enduring Guard 1.
Axe/Blunt:
Max Stance
Max Shatter
Double Attack +15 levels on yourself, or maxed
Max Rupture
Extras Defensive Formation
How to fight classes.
Rogue: These can be mean if built to last, especially with Yule vit rings. Starting off: Cast Protective Stance, Defensive Formation, Enduring Guard. Toggle Auto. Then, keep a close eye on their buffs bar: Once you see crossed swords, IMMEADIATELY start Shatter, Rupture, Double Attack. By then you are free to auto and repeat as you please.
Druid: Meh, if you're more experienced you shouldn't have any problem with them. If they're a guy who zooms on a fast mount while Vine and Swarming, Rupture is your best bet. Those guys are real douches.
Mage: Once fight starts, just go to them and break their energy shield. Then cut through their TP armor.
Ranger: Shoutout to MichaelXXX, a good friend of mine. I would always emerge victorious, but onto the point now. Rupture is your best bet again, to hit them while they're running. Fight Countdown, stand next to them and once fight starts then cast your usual chain of skills: Shatter Rupture Double. By then you should be bolas'd, but walk towards them still and then rinse and repeat.
Warriors: Contest of who will survive the longest. Just fight like your on a 4 star mob.

#2Tanking.
I'm no expert on tanking. But here goes. Please do not bash on me. Just scrap this in levelling.
First off, if your thinking: Oh, if I just go full vit, I'm set to tank. You're sure as hell wrong. A good tank keeps aggro, minds his armor, defense, resists, evasions.
Stats: Maybe some Dexterity, but on the main part go Vit.
Stance Max.
Def Form Max.
Taunt Max.
Shield Wall Max.
Shield Bash up to whatever level you're going to tank.
Enduring Guard? Needs confirmation.
Gear: You will need a shield, and some energy regen to cast all those skills. Shield: Preferably the Shield of the Mountain(NOT WIND), Rampart, or Bastion. I'm not going to go so far as DL I have no experience there.
*Immortalius has a far more advanced, well thought out tank guide. I suggest looking at his.

Re: Rav's Guides. PvP, Tanking, Review on Lux
#3Review on Lux:
Elemental Damage offhands: Make best friends with these guys. They will help you ALOT, Strength or no strength. Anything Bronze, Silver, scrap that, save for Gold.
Ammys: Golden/Heroic are the first ones you should buy. If Heroic Rejuv is too hefty, then just get Heroic Energisation. HP regen isn't really needed. Earth is a nice upgrade but not really necessary. Midnight is one I would recommend, but gl finding one and buying. The Yule lux is also pretty good. (All of it)
Rings: Haste Ring/Reaper are epic, and will help you out alot (not so much if tanky) Regen rings are ****, just go for a nice Grand/Royal Skill Ring.

#4atm i havent read everything, i got to skills with a sword
i wanna disagree
proc stance - great works well
double attack - massive dmg on pvp, can easily hit over 2k on non-tanks ofc, at least 1k on those, 3k on the lower lvls / those with low armour
shatter - ofc, amazing skill
pummel - i love pummel, this is a great lvling skill, but for bosses/pvp, it sucks.
giant swing - does some decent dmg on pvp, can hit over 1k for me at lvl 27 or 28, but slow casting, i would prefer tank skill
i find shield very helpful for pvp, going with melee (melee isnt nerfed on pvp), double and shatter for dps is fine imo, bash is very useful (also does decent dmg compared to other skills at pvp), and same as shield wall
i would prefer shield wall for pvp over def form, not always going against melee classes, so dropping it will be less critical than dropping proc stance, but still great skill (shield wall is prob great against mages)
enduring guard at lvl 1, seems reasonable
didnt read anything after, too lazy atm

#5Most people can't afford two offhands. That's why I didn't include it

Re: Rav's Guides. PvP, Tanking, Review on Lux
#6I used to have an awesome pvp build, but I found that my dps build is far superior for pvp. My skills kill most people before they get me to half, and if they're tank I usually still kill them because of lack of damage on their part. Bash is one of the most usefull things in pvp btw, I also like shield wall. Cast shield wall as soon as you see a shatter or learn to time the player's skill casting.
