So I read a post on here about a month ago about someone running sword/focus blind build, and they paired it with a GS. I really like the hammer so trying a protective variation on that. It is a fun build, but wondering if it will work long term for what I want, which is PVE dungeons and running around Orr for group events.

The idea is to blind with Ray Of Judgement as you approach the mob, blind again with flashing blade, and then again with Virtue of Justice/Justice is Blind. Blind Exposure stacks vuln on them, and Inspired Virtue gives you might when you pop justice. So nice Synergy.

Then while on CD, I switch to hammer, get protection up, mighty blow, banish, switch back and repeat.

Add in Hold the Line, Save Yourself and Retreat and I have lots of shout buffs.

So it seems like 20 15 0 10 5 is a good place to start. Not sure from there.

Is this viable for end game? any suggestions?

Almost anything can be used for PvE, so if it works for you then great.

As you have 20 in Zeal, you could consider Binding Jeopardy aswell then when you switch to hammer you can use Zealot’s Embrace to throw a further 5 stacks of vulnerability on the target(s) – This should help makeup for the loss of the “vulnerability king” that is the greatsword.
