[Chosen] Standard SnB Warband build?

[galaxgal]

Hi all - I see a lot of builds on 2H chosen here but was curious if there's a stock build out there for running S&B in warbands, which stats to prioritize in gear talis as I level, etc. Right now I'm doing this -

RoR.builders - Chosen

But obviously this is at a very low level and I would expect to respec to middle line at some point.

Basically:

1. What are the key mastery abilities/talents to grab first?

• What stats should I prioritize with talis and potions before I have good high RR gear? Should I stop at hardcap or softcap?

• Which auras should I run?

• What should I change if I go into SC play?

Thanks in advance for your help. If there are any up to date S+B builds I've missed please let me know.

I would go with this as starter thingy: 40/40

https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/c ... 3,8359,797

Stats: Toughness and Wounds (and armor) are prio, softcap is 1050
Aura: Toughness, Resi and Heal Aura (you can do some variants here, but toughness is must have)
Skill Block chance with RR points and fusi strike to get less crits...

so thats the starting thingy in general

Above spec looks good, but one (slightly big) caveat to mention:

morale 3 should be Distracting Bellow. It's a major tank morale that every tank class has access to and an absolute standard

Xarfay's build is missing mixed defences that still seems essential to any Chosen snb build to me. Or, is there a reason for this I'm missing (been away a coupl eof weeks)?

If you go up for oppression, which seems a decent idea, then you can choose which aura (heal deb or ap) to go for, so with ap you get: RoR.builders - Chosen But you can swap this to heal deb. In a wb you should check what auras are needed and if ap isn't then you can check.

Resi can often be dropped if there's a shaman in your party. Otherwise Tough/Resi are the basis and what can be added depends on the rest of the party and wb.
