skill choice 2h war

[oedi]

just seems like they still don't have much of an advantage vs any other fighting type at this point

theatrics has very weak defense against any gladiator with a 2h weapon.

Maybe Caine had the right idea and swapping over to duel wield is the only way to go

I dont think anything would make me happier right now than if all 2h rage swapped to DW.

[Cynaidh]

hehe see i am the other way Oedi, i think varqus and belgarad do better vs Oedi and Ormgar then Smak does, I did just get Smak a new weapon so he has equal level weapons to varqus so i'll have to see how it goes.

[Cynaidh]

Well your right Oedi, i tried Huuse vs Siam since i knew he was a counter striking Theatrics and Huuse looked good for once, 2 hander just beat him up.

[Narol]

Larshamir avenged Siam against Huuse, and gave a lesson to Ivory on the way... Power Ragers are not finished !

[Cynaidh]

Yup Larshamir totally got the jump on Huuse tore him up.

BTW on Larshamir if your using Berserk a lot on him which i assume you are since your attacking twice a round, that create distance skill wont go off while your in berserk (or at least that's what i have been told, and i never saw it go off on my guys using berserk) I'd probably drop those 8 points into Shock & Awe, i think Shock & Awe is one of the better rage skills in my opinion if you hit it early with it at rank 10, you'll debuff your opponent's attack power and defensive power by 150+ and it lasts for 2 rounds, not to mention it hits like a truck.

Only because they're all set to counter attack vs rage :P

kharn, rarg and blarg all fell out of the top 50 the past month. that's kinda sucky for lvl 50 glads nearing the completion of their skill set. i'm intrigued to see what ziggler gets up to this month so I can see if he has found the silver bullet to the problem or not.

[Cynaidh]

I like Incredulous D no agility really, armor movement is at 7 so he isn't going to get the jump on ya, but damn it 10 Rampage with 200 str, thats' going to freaking hurt.

nope thats not it, long time since i used CS against all rages.
sir trollington, incredulous d, and general disaray are the best 2h rages in my opinion. look to them to try and find out what to do.

In fact, Cynaidh, I'm raising Create Distance to 10 on Larshamir and when it's done i'll probably switch to Bash or Killshot against Speed ragers...

I don't know if it can work, but it seems worth trying to me... Create Distance and Iron jaw are the only defensive skills that rage can access, and maybe there is a way to use them against speed ragers !
