My goal is to be able to function in a dungeon without getting 2 hit, and to be able to maintain some kind of dps. As you will see i try to be team orientated as well with shouts banners and keep stacks of vulnerability up to or over 10 as much as possible

I mainly use GS outside of the dungeon and Axe/Mace and rifle inside of a dungeon. With that i switch a few skills around inside of the dungeon to benefit the axe/mace build with duel wield and crack shot and outside to GS to stack might and increase gs damage.

Strength 20
(Dungeon) Duel Wielding, Berserker Power
(Outside Dungeon) Berserker Power, Slashing power

Arms 20
(Dungeon) Crack shot, Rendering Strikes
(Outside Dungeon) Forceful Great sword, Rendering strikes

Tactics 20
(All) Lung Capacity, Empowered

Discipline 10
(All) Heightened Focus

Skills
– For great justice
– On my mark
– banner of discipline
– battle standard

I would like an comments on how i could improve this build, or any thoughts on the type of armor to get. I was think about getting the power/precision/toughness type.

I run talented for tanking/survivablity but using the dps specific traits in those trees. Also using a 50/50 mix of tank gear Power/Toughness/Vitality and dps gear, my dps doesn’t suffer too much. Runes to match.

This coupled with situational awareness, learning to dodge the right boss attacks, I hardly ever am downed.

For food I only run with magic find food, as I don’t need the extra survivabilty as much. The extra boon duration really makes a difference with the boon generating abilities I use.

I also use sharpening stones which help provide a decent bonus to my power as I run with a lot of toughness.

Defense and Tactics trait trees are your tanking or healing support talent trees.

Another thread concerning a more tanking build has some information I posted about trait allocation and switching it up for hybrid dps/tank with good survivability.
