Have had tons of requests for a build video so I finally got the time to throw it together. Short and sweet.

    Nice, I’ve seen you in action. It’s very effective.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten

    Nice build. Truth has always been a great set. Acolyte seems to be the go to for everyone’s builds nowadays. Same with Bloodspawn.

    Yeah for sure. Bloodspawn is good on any pvp build and NMA is super damage dense. Truth is great because of its 1-barrable nature. The best part about this setup is the uptime on maximum damage. Nma is constant and truth can be procced offensively and defensively.

    would sword singer work just for the 2h bar like you have for truth? i do not have a 2h truth wep, so i was wondering if sword singer would work and what would be the difference? thank you

    @BoaNoite sword singer would work, the difference in damage wouldn’t be much. The difference, however would be seen in healing on your vigor. With truth the proc carries over and boosts damage of your dual wield abilities as well as hurricane and vigor.

    yes that makes sense, thank you for the info, so if one didnt have access to truth because of no 2h wep, what other set would you recommend running then?

    @BoaNoite swordsinger is probably best alternative.

    Thanks for sharing Speed. The struggles I have with stam-sorc on a similar build are:

    1. double barring NMA's cost making it 5% increase on all abilities instead of front bar only
    2. overlap of major brutality buff on crit surge and rally
    3. overlap of major evasion buff on shuffle and quick cloak
    4. needing/wanting streak and camo on the bar for the utility both bring

    I've ultimately gone with quick cloak / forward momentum as my setup with Truth front and shackle both using streak and camo. I've had to sacrifice rally and crit surge. i tried shuffle/crit surge combo but as you've shown, it's hard to get away from rally and quick cloak even though shuffle/crit surge does half of what those abilities bring to table.

    @mursie I personally would never run without crit surge. I used to run forward momentum instead of shuffle and used camo hunter. Now, I prefer having the burst heal from rally as well as the extra regen. It saves me a lot of times when I would die without it. I haven’t run streak in a long time because to use it effectively you have to actually build into mag sustain in some way, meaning making sacrifices elsewhere. Also, in 7 medium the cost increase of NMA is not noticeable at all.

    stamDK here. I wanted to get Truth but no time to farm it, so im on Spriggan. I also have Sword Singer but Spriggan allows me to deal damage on both bars.

    would love to get Truth tho.

    how tough is it to get that truth great sword? alot of farming or decent drop rate?

    @BoaNoite it’s an easy dungeon to farm but drop rates aren’t the best in my experience. I would prefer to have a 2h maul of truth but it just hasn’t dropped for me.

    @Davadin on dk if you are using leap, spriggans is a good option. If you are using onslaught, it is a wasted 5 pc during the ultimate.

    aye. i had Onslaught when its 10+ sec of brutality, but now its only 5sec where I can easily get stunned or silenced or feared or snared... i'm back to Leap.
