My Current WL Build - Suggestions?

[Finejeez]

Hello! My 1st 40 class, and I am really having a blast. I am currently running Hunter/Axe, but there seems to be or at least how I read from the Guardian tree some cool abilities like Leonine Frenzy and Brutal Pounce.

The build that I am running:
RoR.builders - White Lion

How would Hunter/Guardian look, and would that be viable for RvR/SCs?

Would this build below work well, and be the most ideal build?

RoR.builders - White Lion

Anything that I should tweak? I tried to put forth some thinking effort here, but please bear with me since I'm still new. I look forward to hear from you.

I was running the first build from rr 40 till rr70 and I thought that this build is very good, but then I have tried the second build and I have to say that the dmg is much better and I kill destro much faster. Maybe its because i am now 70+ and with better gear but imo the second build is better for pvp and i dont even need to have heal debuff to kill a healer.

Yeah! The Guardian build is so awesome. I noticed a major difference. I switched at 45rr, and now I’m 51.

Leveling, currently 17 would you recommend going up guardian or hunter tree first for the second build?

Well after pounce now that I think about it.

I am not 40 yet and have only started playing WL for the past week but...
In my opinion, thin the herd is not as useful. And if you want to ignore armor just use hack and slash instead of forced opportunity. Either way, you're not supposed to be hitting tanks with a WL, leave it to a slayer / WH, they can burst tanks from the back with ease. If you want to stop heals, better to fetch an opponent away from his healer or if you're hitting a healer, a kd or raw burst will do the job.

Yea.... no.

FO is the strongest armor debuff in the game. Period. Hack should not be on your action bar in PvP at all, sundering chop is your filler attack. Heal Debuff are an integral aspect of the game though incoming > outgoing.

You were right
And now that I've experienced it, I would say that it's impossible to live without FO, thin the herd and cull the weak
It's just too good of a combo to pass: activate throat bite and primal fury, pounce in, force opportunity and thin the herd, do your normal attacks such as coordinated strike, when below 50% start putting in the cull the weak into rotation

it's addictive

what do you recomend spending renown points on?

[userkiller]

Max opprotunist, futile strikes until you chance to be crit is less than 5%, then spend the rest for deft defender/reflexes.

opportunist until max
then you can reduce your chance to be crit or spend it on parry/ dodge/ disrupt
