Any medium sword and board/2h stamblades out there?

been having a lot of fun in BGs with s+b/2h medium stamblade.

didn't realise medium armour builds could be so tanky and damagey

Usually it's 2h and Master DW but Heavy Armor because it offers more defensive utilities and NB can go full ofensive as Heavyblades, causing more consistent damage.

Plague Doctor, Fury, Seventh, Ravager plenty options but a selfish playstyle since NB don't contribute too much for BGs.

I'm not a expert with NB, this is what I've been seeing in BGs when they are no bowtards. IMO it's pretty powerful, good that not much people like this playstyle with NB.

Nb's are useful if they have enough sustain to fear on cooldown and great for bursting targets.

I totally got into the heavyblade style. And when I finally decided to tweak CP to incorporate using resistances at the expense of crit/damage, it became very addictive.

So then I thought I want to try medium stamblade with a sword and shield - i was suprised at the damage, even with the s+b skills. And again, by tweaking CP, the survivability has increased a lot - just having the shield has so many optional benefits

medium no-cp stamblade:

2pc bloodspawn
5pc afflicted with backbar shield
5pc essence thief with backbar mace
2pc blackrose prison dual wield

dw bar: power extract / killer blade / quick cloak / rend / vigor / dawnbreaker
snb bar: relentless focus / mass hysteria / deep slash / cloak / ambush / temporal guard

15% relentless + 8% temporal + 30% major protection quick cloak + 15% deep slash aoe maim. alot of mitigation. pretty good damage with essence rune. applies minor defile with high uptime and major defile procs a good bit from power extract.

it's different. but i like it.
