After trying many builds, including Strife’s Axe/Mace/Axe build (which felt VERY glassy if not in an organized group, still loved it), I think I found the one I like the most.

Using Axe/Shield + Axe in offhand (that way the autoattack doesn’t get interrupt, you can get more fury with skill 4 (boon=more damage) and the best axe skill 5), switching to Longbow when in need.
Now I know if this is using Empower, best to use more in Arms with the boons and bonuses it gives, but this isn’t the main issue here. This is a bonus to this build.
Built it like that to have Shield skill 5 be used more often and gain MUCH more from it.
Giving you reflect missiles + might (+vulnurability for 3 seconds), and with Empower trait giving you even more damage.
Utils:
FGJ – Of course you’ll be using that for more crits for you and your party, + boons = even more damage
now the second utility I like to change accordinly because this is not a shout/banner/support build. I would mostly use Endure Pain, changing sometimes with Shake It Off/Frenzy/Balanced Stance
Third is Banner of Discipline which boosts your crit damage and chance by ALOT.
Same as the elite here.
Using 4x Beserker + 2x Knights, I’m not sure about my gear yet though. Might go full Knights with Ruby Orbs in them, or Berserker with Soldier runes in them. Not sure yet and would like suggestions on it!
As for Jewels as well.
