My pally 2H spec what da ya think

[Bladze]

Thinking of respeccing pally to 2 H

was going to go....

34 slash
46 chants
44 2H
30 parry.

What you think, also should I aim for Gov Or Erienes...

Is it still viable for a 2H pally to solo in PVE without a bot or am i gonna be sat around all day waiting on my hits...

 

[Rub]

when going for no slam in my opinion u should go crush for the anytime stun chain, im going pole spec without slam but with crush spec when i hit some decent rr
i actually dont rly like any of the arti hauberks i like the eirenes one the most but its stupid it doesnt proc that much but its nice if it does
with 30 parry some +parry in template some pve only parry bonuses ur not going to wait that long in pve tho u dont got a stun u can use in solo pve so i again suggest going crush spec p)
the spec itself looks very good maybe gimping parry a bit to get 50 2H for rvr

 

[Bladze]

IS 50 2h worthwhile tho, i didnt think too much of the style chain so didnt see the point in speccing so high. Does it have an affect on WS or is that based on my slash spec?

 

[Rub]

2H WS is based on your 2-handed skill(incl rr, item bonus etc) and strength
your slash spec affects your minimum 2H damage when atking with slash 2handers
50 2H is rly nice when running in an assist train (for celerity, end tho its 2k range now) for the backsnare -> 7sec stun chain or the sidesnare -> 9sec stun chain
im quite sure u will feel some dmg diff from 44 2h to 50 2h

 

[Bladze]

Ok Rub thanks apreciate the input

 

[Demon2k3]

i'm an 2h pally atm, it's recomened you get 7 shield to for engage wich is an awesome tool in RvR. I'm crush spec and that 6sec stun chain is wonderful as an opener.

be warned tho that it's quite hard making an 2h template.

but as rub said the back chain is wonderful against runners.

it's recomened you get 7 shield to for engage

hmm yeh forgot to say that

interesting template you got there Outlander, how hard are some of the odder sounding rings to get. Having just come back I dont really have much money to buy rare drops etc. To start with will probably have to work with fairly cheap/common stuff

 

[Rub]

that template has quite some hard/expensive items in it

doesnt surrender much to Outlanders template imo and costs a hell of a lot less.

 

[Outlander]

the template I posted is just to help you with some template ideas

I wouldnt have expected you to go for it as you are just restarting the game etc

 

[Bladze]

Thanks for the sugestions Outlander and Yejorah.

Anyone else got opinions on wether it is really worth going to full 50 in 2h?

 

[Demon2k3]

pros with 502h is that you get an awesome backstyle, it will also bring up max damage variance. The backchain is also an 7 sec stun. i've hit an caster for 1k in total with crits.

So clearly 502h got it's advantages, this is from my pow tho.

 

[Sharaft]

hybrid spec pally is luvly! i play on camlann and there pally got yellow end, and the side style stun on shield aswell as 2h, the damage is SPLENDID!

 

[Bladze]

[Sharaft]
