This is wrong. Here's why:
1. You are a tank. Most of your job is guarding people. Guarding people entails getting hit by guard damage. Guard damage can be parried. It should have almost 100% uptime if you are in the thick of things. This matters because 75 AP every 3 seconds adds up to more than 15 AP every 1 second(which doesn't even apply every second, I'll explain below).
2. Chaotic Advantage restores AP during GCD. Power from the gods will only restore an extra 15 AP per second if you are not doing anything with your GCD. Time you could spend spamming your abilities is spent sitting there doing nothing waiting for your AP to regen.
100% Agree with
PanzerKasper, power of the gods allaws you to regen dueue sprint. And ofcourse its less than 25per sec (75 every 3 sec) from parry, but some time you must fight mages or may need ap while smb attacks you from behind!
P.S. Even 5min nonstop Ravage spam with PoG (+15ap regen) wont let your AP bar become empty, so there is no need for extra regen from parry.

Do you guys thinks the build in the video is still viable in RoR ?

I've been running this build succesfuly since late summer. Keep in mind that I duo with Ade (DoK) and this build (with trade-offs ofc) is the most balanced build for our duo/comp based on countless of encounters (2vX). It rocks.....
I constantly swap Corrupting Wrath with Discordant Turbulence every fight, based on the flow of battle / target(s). It does wonders.
It's no wb-build but we don't do wb's anyways.
Gear... full mercenary, mostly strenght talis and a few tougness ones.

Discordant Turbulence loses its effectivness in T4 where most of DDs get a 50% healdebuff (DoK even has a proc tactic for it) and you should really go for RB instead of just spending random points in the Discord tree since its your only efficient way to spread CS.

aza decided it to change before t4 open if i not mistake: it got from pure regen every 5 sec to ap itiem regen which mean it dosen't work while you are using skills/channeling/while flee, basically it's a+15 like the itiem stat to ap regen which is weasted for tactic slot.
it's all reported in the thread of the different from live skills anyway.

Wow, that makes Chaotic Advatage actually viable.

Talking about builds outside of the context of the rest of your group is pretty pointless unless it's for pug scenarios. You really need to change your spec all the time to fit better into that group. Sometime it's just a tactic or morale change. But it usually include respeccing both Mastery and Renowns.
However. i Recomend this for PuG 2hander:
http://waronlinebuilder.org/#career=cho ... :4791:4792:
20 Points into Parry Renown
20 Points into Deft Defender
Any remaining in crit.
