Kagato said:2H pally might be ok for group RvR where positionals are more likely, but for solo the 2H styles are very poor, you want reactionary styles more the positionals, so you will be reduced to only using anytime and parry chain.
s/s is ok but again, long fights means more time to get adds, soloers need to kill fast and get out of sight quick.
Almost impossible as a pally as you will end up with crap chants (blue endo, and withput chants we are nothing but a crap armsman) and low slash/crush (fix doublespecing imo).Vodkafairy said:if its possible spec-point-wise, a hybrid spec could be good, just have to swap from s/s to 2h at the exact right time and it will rox.
Manisch Depressiv said:Even at a low RR like RR5 there are not much opponents that can kill a 50 2H, 39 crush/slash, 42 Shield Armsman. He has to be properly templated, ML'ed and not to be played by an idiot.
With a Pally, a split spec with 44 2H, 42 Shield, rest in weapon/chants works quite good too for solo, especially at higher RR.
2H is excellent for solo, if you have slam.
