1.Solo
2. Scenario
3. Group RvR
4. Open RvR
ALso tell me if i should play in any of those builds with 2H or DW

Thank you in advance, i appreciate it
John

RoR.builders - Slayer 50+

RoR.builders - Slayer 70+

This is what i would run at rr50. Its the same spec for everything you asked there, to go from AoE Slayer to Single Target Slayer you just need to change one tactic (Push For More goes in, w/e it is you don't like comes out). You can also swap Jagged Edge for Flanking if your crit is too low.

Short Temper is what enables your Inevitable Doom spam now that SM's Whispering Winds got nerfed to ****. And ID spam is why SLs are worth anything. You wanna have two IDs up, then do an AoE/ST spell (Shatter Limbs, Retribution, Deep Wounds, Onslaught, Spine Crusher or Flurry if there are 3 targets or less - any one of these), back to two IDs, AoE/ST, and repeat.

This i guess.

WS > Str. You want 990 Str (to get to 1050, the soft cap, with Liniments) but i don't know how much your gear is giving you. If you can't reach soft cap its fine, don't sacrifice WS for it cuz WS is better.

At least two Futile Strikes. Three isn't bad either. Then the rest in Parry.

At rr80 you'll run 3 Might, 4 Blade Master, 2 FS, 4 Reflexes and 2 Crit. But that's not set in stone either, it varies a bit if you're doing SCs, City or oRvR.

I think so too, thanks a lot for this information

This is outdated. I don't value WS so much anymore.

And its value, if the Stats Change patch go thru, will go down even further.

This is what i'll try first. We will lose around 12% Parry so i find it very hard to not run at least 3 FS. With Dual Wield and 4 Reflex, after strikethrough, we'll still rover above 20% which is the absolute minimum threshold where its relevant.

My only question, atm, is between going Full Crit - with Talismans, Linis, Renown Points - or going Full Weaponskill and Melee Power Linis and Talis. I'll try crit first because yes, Initiative buff will give ppl a lil bit more anticrit, but they'll also be parrying less. A lot less in some cases. And more hits means more chances to get crits, so more dmg. But it may be that most of the server freak the hell out over the changes and start doing some pepega thing like stacking Initiative. Then we'll see the average player running around with 20 or 25% anticrit. And thats when WS + Melee Power will do better.

Shameless selfpromotion here, but for solo slayer stuff you might be interested to look up my forum posts for slayer solobitz. First one is not much higher then rr50 (pve gear) and second is with vanq gear. I believe builds are in comments.

Have any of you helpful folks found a relatively recent (2020s) Slayer Guide?

I am the OP and i am still playing the same build as sugested here even though our damage was nerfed a bit.
