| Warrior/Necro Dragon Slash PvE build |

|
I haven't really used the Dragon Slash elite much since the release of Nightfall and looking back at it I came across this really fun build today (I'm assuming its nothing new, but its new to me so here goes). Its certainly lacking in its party friendly Rez skill but man I was tearing through Factions with it. Just thought I'd share the fun.
Template : OQQTEZKXHivaxZqh8ZHUTwwarAA
l) Flail
2) Dragon Slash
3) Sun and Moon Slash
4) Standing Slash
5) Whirlwind Attack
6) Plague Touch
7) Enraging Charge
8) Endure Pain
Attributes :
16 Strength - Sup Rune
15 Sword - Sup Rune
Usage :
- Use Enraging Charge to run into a group and gain 4 strikes of Adrenaline which opens up Flail.
- Often times after 1 or 2 hits you'll have Whirlwind Attack up. Use it now, depending on how many are in the group you'll have Dragon Slash ready to use which will in turn recharge Whirlwind for another if you're lucky.
- Sun and Moon slash and Standing Slash to fill the aggro gaps. I choose standing slash because it does a little more damage than other alternatives and has the lowest Adrenaline cost making it more spammable than the non-stance conditional sword attacks.
- If energy gets low use Endure Pain until your monks have your back.
- Plague Touch is your all star here. It has no recharge time and you'll have a ton of energy available pretty much all the time. I laugh when Rangers use Throw dirt with its huge recharge time.
- By the time your group has been aggro'd you should be able to Enraging Charge out of your Flail to regain your speed and run to the next aggro group while you're still ticked off at the world (meaning while your adrenaline is still active)
This build has a feel of a barbarian berserker style character making it really fun and really damaging. I use two superior runes for overkill because it adds to the flavor. You don't have to but I recommend it. An adrenaline weapon is a must for greatest effect. Standing Slash it pretty much your flexible skill here for those wanting something different or rez. Enjoy!
