Returning player, looking for a decent build
Depends on your playstyle. I never liked playing casters, so I play a power Reaper with GS and Axe/Wh for a bit of range. Are you more interested in condis? power? reaper? non-reaper?

I….honestly don’t know, lol. Sorry, been a long time since I played and I am still trying to get a feel for the game again. Like you I also am not (usually) fond of caster playstyles. I do remember playing with axes and daggers, at least that’s what I had equipped when I logged back in for the first time. Also, I know next to nothing about Reapers (or any of the other stuff introduced in HoT) that’s all new to me.

Take a look at some of those builds to get an idea of whats going. Really i would say jump in hotm and play around with different builds. I like to practice on the beasts and lord dudes (in hotm) to get a feel for live action.

Greatsword:
-Most damaging power weapon
-Very good cleave (3 target 1-3 and 5 target 2-4-5)
-Nightfall blinds, cripple and corrupt boons, 1 every 2 seconds
-It’s last auto attack chain and Grasping Darkness chill the enemy
-Good life force generation with auto attack, Death Spiral and Grasping Darkness
Axe/Warhorn
-The only good ranged power weapon
-Axe can’t cleave well, but Sigil of Fire help
-Ok life force generation
