Currently only PVP,

always wear Bone Pirate for regen.

I've been switching back and forth between a few things and cannot decide which is better.

Build one. Ravager,for damage, DW bar - Steel tornado, Templar rune, Rapids, Vigor, Templar Cleanse. Dawn Breaker ulti
2h Bar - Charge, (the one that slows them down) Dizzy swing, Executioner ( The one that hit multiple targets) Rally, and Power of the light, 2h Ulti
All Champion points in master and at arms and Physical damage, with the Crit one up to like 19% and then the rest into penetration.

Build 2. Pretty much the same setup. DW Bar, Rending Slashes, Jabs, Javelin, Vigor, Power of the light.DB ulti
2h Bar, Charge, Templar rune, Rapids, Rally and Templar cleans. DB ulti

Build 3, Using Automaton instead of ravager. and using the exact same setups as before.

I lose alot by sticking to my 2h build. No blinding light proc, no 10% extra crit after jabs etc. But for some reason the 2h build allows me to hit my target more often. I cant keep them still when i'm jabsing. Even with rending and teh 2h charge slow.

oh, I also only wear Veli that 20% proc chance is really nice for when you have power of the light up and it adds a quick 7k damage.

I think part of the issue is that I'm on a terribly *** computer so I have trouble keeping my oponent in jabs. At least with my 2h build I have a strong single target, and decent AOE wjhen I need it.

So, Down to the actual questions. Automaton, Or Ravager? and DW Jabs DPS Build.....or 2h Wrecking Blow DPS build. Help me.

    Jabs is too buggy for me to put it on my PVP setup. Either eclipse morph is always on my bar, except I'm magplar and it seems you're running a stamplar so our sets are different. But if you can spare some extra mag in your build, eclipse forces your opponent to either cleanse or heal through.

    I like having multiple setups when doing PVP.

    Jabs is the most horrendous ability

    - People walk through it
    - Sometimes it feels like I'm close enough to my target but it's doing no damage
    - When you do hit a target, if they are running major evasion you lose 25% damage. Ridiculous.
    - When it's laggy (which it normally is), the animation is invisible. I'm not sure if I've casting the skill or not because my character just stands there.

    Worst part is, I feel forced into using it because of how the aedric spear passives synergise so well with it. I know they tried to fix the targeting of this skill, but it's still horrible. By the time I've finished channeling my jabs, some S+B dude has already fired off two rotations of his cheesy LA -> HS -> Bash and nearly ended my life, while weaving around the jabs.

    It's for this reason I find myself trying not to use it so much anymore. I've got with a more kitey, burst damage build, not unfamiliar to Ghost (albeit with a few changes).

    Here's the gameplay/build video if you're interested in this kind of style. It's not easy, but very rewarding and fun.

    Jabs is a sack of shiz atm.
    It's so broken it hardly ever hits in my experience.
    You might be better off using weapon skills, and as you say going with Automoton for a permanent damage increase.
    Also don't play alone. Find a small group and support each other.

    ALright, You guys have all pretty much ended my anxiety, Now I know not to go with a jabs build.I alwaays thought jabs was PERFECT cause it gave temps and advantage with ravager procs.

    So now the question remains,

    Ravager, or Automaton.

    If you're not using jabs, I would probably opt for Automaton.
