Anyone running this and if so how is it? Just spitballin….

Used to run one way back in the day. It's gotten a lot of good toolkit buffs, such as the upgrade to carve and the proposed PTS change to stampede. It's great having the Racer because... I'm going to be honest, I hate uppercut and morphs. Next patch you'll have a ton of dots, so you'll actually likely have to choose between abilities for bar space.

What kind of content are you doing?

Straight up PVE, dungeons then trials at some stage.

Yeah, you'll be fine for any dungeon and any trial complete with 2h. I'd recommend brawler over carve if you're doing a lot of soloing, but otherwise your best 3 abilities will be carve (aoe spammable, single target dot), stampede (as long as the proposed changes go through next patch), and Executioner or Reverse Slash. Which morph you pick depends heavily on if you have enough aoe already, in your opinion. Wardens have Shalks, 2h light/heavy attack, stampede, and carve/brawler to pair with either endless hail or deadly cloak, depending on what your setup is. I'd run Executioner if the big buff it got holds for more single target damage, you'll already be doing tons of aoe damage.

Cheers for that! I will give carve a go, like the splash damage. And I want to run as many class skills as I can so I have like 2...lol, oh joy! Wait and see what happens with soultrap and such after pts.
