[Chosen] 2H spec for smallman

[OldSparky]

Gonna experiment with some Chosen builds myself and see what build will suit my playstyle best. Will definitely give 2h Chosen a shot again with the new changes.

Since the change im 2hander on my Chosen running this build at rr45.
RoR.builders - Chosen
At rr50 i will take the AP aura aswell.

Nice. So looks like 2H's coming back

EDIT : @Dalgrimar : So you took Downfall over Quake? Is that worth it? What set do you use with that build?

[Gerv]

If you can control the fight and how often immunities are given out then stagger (quake) can be a really useful tool. Without co-ordination on coms it can be hard to find moments to break from guard and drop a useful stagger that is not broken by others.

A reliable knockdown in a small grp is invaluable for both offensive and defensive actions. For example, to prevent actions, secure kills or apply critical cc to enemy tanks.

My Chosen is not that good geared so i just use a mix of 3 Ruin and 4 BL.
I took downfall cuz its mandatory on Chosen imo.
I do have to say that without anny conq piece and just rr46 i feel pretty squashy on 2hander.

So 2h Chosen is decent again ? i stopped playing when they nerfed it hard :/

Which build should i use with bad gear(anni/beastlord) and 41rr ?

Same as ever waronlinebuilder.org - Chosen build

Although i wouldn't recommend playing 2h chosen with bad gear.

"loldpschosen" is a high renown rank Chosen game and even then... If you aren't at least rr60, forget about it. Since you want to "DPS" you will opt for offensive gear which in turn means little to no initiative or crit chance reduction. That gets you best case scenario somewhere between 10-14% to be crit WITH Flawless armor slotted. Add into the equation an initiative debuff like "marked" or standing in MoM and you are back to 20%+ to be crit. High rr dps will eat you alive.

Most people still try to cling to the memory of what a high rr Chosen was able to get stat wise on Live, that memory is just that, a memory. Gear stat inflation and the "epic" items that had insane stats with 6% crit and the like are gone. The dev's on this project know better. The true stat monster build Chosen is gone.

The changes to the class on this project leave little to be desired in the 2h department. CS in itself is still good but the change with it not being proccable on aoe abilities removed all appeal for the cookie cutter spec, which was the 2h spec. Before, you would supplement your survivability for a high chance of debuffing enemy damage output. The risk/reward factor leans too far in the risk portion now. If by chance you are the solo tank in the group as well... good luck

So CS does not work with RB anymore? Only on ST?

It does again, but the value of CS was tuned down to 10%.
