ok so stats seems like we have an agreement hereOk, I like ur stats suggestion. As for skills... The reason u dnt use rupture is the fact that neither my blunt nor axe abilities are good so i am not putting anything in them. As for getting rid of shield bash, maybe i will if i get a offhand. I can get rid of sweeping blow though. Are u sure about bandage wounds? I mostly go solo and it does help. Btw i forgot to mention, i have 45 health sigs and 25 energy sigs(not exact but estimate). Why u would say that the shield isn't doing much i dnt know. It has 15 health regen. About the gloves of haste i had them but am letting a friend use them. I dnt really need them.stats, all dex, to vit
foc, u dont need that much even if u dont have a single regen item, lower to 50-60 and put in str/vit
ur health should be higher for ur lvl since u prob dont have much lux as it seems
attack, max ur ability, it'll improve ur dmg and attack
energy, decent, good for ur lvl, still need to lower foc a bit
defence, i wouldnt waste pts on dex for that, only def form
dmg, pretty low for ur lvl, try getting better wep, axe recommended (rupture), and maybe some dmg gear
skills:
now here i must say u gotta improve
drop all the pts from sweeping blow and shield bash (and bandage if possible) and make it like that
shatter - maxed
rupture - maxed (usable with an axe, not just hammers)
double attack / pummel - maxed (for ur lvl, prob double attack)
proc stance- maxed
rest of pts in defensive formation
why dont i suggest u frenzy and both pummel and double? simple, u dont seem like a rich guy, a costly build isnt good for u, stick with that
gear :
try getting full met for buff (not including wep, maybe warden if u want)
try get dps offhand, shield isnt for lvling really
ammy is great, dont imrpove to heroic, save for other lux
kick the bracelets, get physical dmg bracelets (slash/pierce/crush) or stat bracelets (wyrm for ur lvl, str-vit will be great, another stat could be foc or dex, i think foc is better)
kick the energy ring when u get enough regen, 5 per tick not really worth it (i had both rings)
kick the fabled sweeping blow and grand shield bash, get maybe another shatter ring (grand or royal), rupture rings, and pummel/double if u want double, could get defensive form and proc stance but those are pretty rare (such as pummel)
Enjoy
Edit : i totally forgot, get haste, gloves or ring, ring recommended
When u say expensive build what do u mean? Also did u not mention giant swing because u dnt think its worth it or because it is fine the way i have it? I think thats it. If i think of any more rants i will post them lol
skills, go max axes, it'll do wonders, and the reason i dont suggest giant swing its simply since its crap, casting, dmg, energy cost and cooldown wise (even tho yilley's saying about giant swing for one shatter, i can still hit with pummel over 1.2k without shatter, not to mention giant swing's cooldown is longer than shatter, and i can hit more with pummel)
it worths to max axes over blunt or swords.
so bandage wounds, im not saying its a must, its good if u really think u need it
shield, shields are crap for lvling dps wise, noone really cares about health regen, most of best shields dont even have regen, and for lvling a blade or trident will do much better imo (or dagger, im just not a fan of dagger)
and u need ur heroic gloves, dont lend them, take it back and use it, haste is a very important factor for unelixired lvling
when i say expensive build i mean u will use more pots/idols (most likely pots), such as using full dps skills like some do
the skills that im using are :
shatter
pummel
double attack
rupture
frenzy
all maxed, so it might require sometimes a pot for energy or health, but for my build i really like using combos, it gives me much more benefit than mixed heroics, not to mention that with frenzy+combo i have 4.6k attack so its very rare to see a miss on a mob for me (with melee, not skills)
