50 pole , 50 effective crush (39 at RR1 ,38 at RR2 etc) and 42 parry :)

you can raise parry as you lower crush when gaining higher RRs

regarding template, I´m struggling with my own, so can´t help you much, just remember to max your pole and crush skills :p

Don't think it has been proven that 51 is the cap for base dmg.. unless I've missed something, which is likely :p
But ofc you can get 51 effective to be on the safe side :)

Kagato, shame on you! You've made Armsmen FotM! :mad:

Im sorry, it was an accident !

Regarding spec, your as well reading the other thread on the subject for a more detailed explanation. But to make it short:

50 pole/42 shield - rest in whatever you want, is the common hybrid spec,

50/50/28 is the very old school pole spec, good for low realm ranks getting started who have less RR bonus to make up base damage with.

50 pole, 51 effective base damage with item/rr bonus - rest parry, seems to be the new fotm Armsmen spec, (im not guilty !). Its a good DW destroyer but you need to be high RR to make the most of it or feel any real differance to 50/50/28.

Some people attempt split damage specs, but to be honest we don't have enough spec points to pull that off effectively and remain competitive.

Templates I can't help you with, but theres some tips in the other thread.

51 effective, not 50

It's not something really really obvious, like you need 50 effective before rr5 and 51 after rr5 is it?
