Hi, I would like to share with you a build with which I am finally having good results!
1st Weapon set: Dagger/Axe
sigils: Revocation, Absorption
2nd Weapon set: Mace/Dagger
sigils: Fallibility, Absorption
Demolisher Amulet/Rune of Lyssa
skills: Mending – optional – Balanced Stance – Featherfoot Grace – optional elite
optional skills: doylak signet (vs bursty composition), signet of stamina (vs. scourges hate), other
optional elite skill: signet of rage (with lyssa runes), winds
Traits:
Discipline: 2-3-1
Defense: 2-3-2; traits can be changed depending on the situation
Spellbreaker: 2-2-2; traits can be changed depending on the situation
With this setup, I have great amount of conditions clear, stability, swiftness (mobility) and even burst damage together with blocks and stun/interrupts. Quickness from Axe 4th is great in combination with leap skills.
It mostly comes to the weapon skills and the way I’ve combined them. In each, there is a burst damage skill and mobility while also defense, block or stun. Very balanced on offense and defense!
I do not enjoy Endure pain, it takes away utility and trait slot, I would rather have 20% stun increase (the answer on why I am using Fallibility sigil) and one extra utility slot to counter enemy composition.
For that reason, and the reason that burst damage is very high atm, I take Demolisher Amulet which can be combined with Doylak Signet for extra Toughness and stability. Rousing Resilience can also be taken against bursty composition instead of Cleansing Ire.
It all depends on who is your enemy and with this setup I have options against both conds or burst dmg.
That being said, this is just what works for me atm, I am looking forward to your builds!
