Noob Blackguard general questions, help needed
Posted: Fri Jan 19, 2024 11:48 pm
Today I played my BG after about 5 years without using it and I am not sure if I am doing something wrong. My gear is outdated, I have conqueror/vanquisher 3/3, everything else is a combination of undying and everlasting. My spec is path of malice until crimson death and path of loathing with one point missing (until I hit rr70) for wave of scorn. Stats pic (not the best, I know):

I find that I do decently with a healer but my damage output is terrible. I am used to my sorcerer which is what I've been playing recently, I might be biased because of that. For example, I find the range and hitbox of crimson death a little too short and narrow. I have a hard time contributing in a siege or open rvr.
Right now I am using rugged, filled with fury, hastened doom adn terrifying foe. RA's deft defender III, Might II, Opportunist III, Vigor III. I am RR 65.
I want, if possible, a 2h tank that can dish some nice damage in open rvr and keep defense/offense while still being tanky. Is it possible? What kind of gear or RA combination would be the best? I guess my STR is too low for this, but I fear I might die even faster if I focus on STR? Also, is hstened doom worth it?
Any advice appreciated.
