For solo and Zerg fighting. I also don’t get how is the sword f1 skill a burst skill unless I have been using it wrong. I have been using the sword f1 skill to help teammates on immobilizing

For zerging its inferior to Sw/Wh + Hammer Shoutheal build, but basically everything is.

For solo it can be okay, I tried S/S LB with Rabid/Dire, but I found it quite meh. Then I switched to mainly Carrion with some Dire mixed in for Toughness, and it worked much better. (See: http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Warrior_-_S/S_Condi_Roamer)

Flurry inflicts 8 stacks of bleeding, thats quite good if you build for condition damage. But in Zerg fights the immobilize is the most important thing.

You can also try the shout heal conditional variant. Basically its Shout bow with sw off-hand. You can do Hybrid with celestrial or pure conditional with dire + Apothecary using Krait Rune.

Aside from being very tanking. Your adrenaline fill quickly due to inspiring shout. Often you can combo bow f1 with sword f1. On top of that you have native 30% boon duration for a lot of might stacking. It’s good for everything.

You should beat most at 1v1, in fact I would say most stands no chance against you. You are great in group roaming and zerging as well due to the support element.

Something like

or alternatively more hybrid:

You would want to switch fear me to Balance stance or Dolyak Signet depends on situation.

The biggest problem this build face is group conditional cleanse. Basically against 1 Guardian, you should win, against 2, you have no chance.
