Zerker Build - Page 4

STA line increases your chance to block with a shield (uncontested; there is no skill check against block, just a level check) and also gives you a fixed rate riposte/parry chance (also uncontested). The riposte/parry percentage is NOT your base parry or in addition to your base riposte. It's as though it were an additional avoidance check.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it's the superior AA build for avoidance. It's a better type of avoidance, but there is still the downside of using a buckler. I'm just not a fan of AGI/INT for avoidance purposes. Against high level epic mobs, those skills diminish quickly. Between +parry/defense items, a dirge, and a warden, I'm usually capped anyway.

this is very true, altho i was too lazy to post on why i wasnt a fan of that build, also lets not forget the serious DPS you lose going agi/int as well.

Im mt for my guild i ahve i think 3 points in hate gain. I mean its useful but the final ability from stamina line is fukin awesome it helps with your power a ton. Like skel said i never runw ith a coercer in my group just a dirge and either assasin or swash. But in all honesty if your a good zerker that hate gain form the aas isnt a big deal we are still aggro magnets.
