Hello. Just another guy that can't play anything else other than barbarian/warrior type characters here.

Trying to figure out dual wield build, but when I look up guides, most of them don't use any of the cool-looking dual wield abilities like dual blitz or eviscerate.. Trying to find a build where you can use those abilities. I'm using them either way. My stats are str/vit/dex. I'm using dawnsword and sanctified gladius for dual wield build.

But when I use two hander build I use songblade, almost fully upgraded, with talents like-steady strike, bull rush, assassinate (for oneshots) and cleave. At will is either furious strike or guard stance. I get a feeling it's probably not the best build since I'm not really doing damage

Help!

songblade looks good, but has 0 armor pen which is probably why you're not doing damage, find ap equipment or apply sunder

Khor'minos colosseum has rewards you should look at for 2h build.

Chrysanthemum petal is good for eviscrate

wings of asira is a great off-hand choice as well because it confers disarm immunity.

Guard stance isn't really good for dps builds. If you have the dawnsword as primary then you can use the deflection at-will. Charge weapon is also good even on a spellpower dump build.

Hey yes I use deflection when I'm using dual wield build. I used guard stance when I was using two handed build. Now I actually switched to furious strike for two handed, but I might use charge weapon instead for two handed build too. And I've been winning all of the matches in colosseum with both dual wield and two handed build (especially with the new eastern greatblade from the vendor there)... I just think dual wield is not as OP since it deals kind of mediocre damage and a lot of my eviscerate attack misses. I actually really hope Savin adds either ultimate for dual wield or more attacks/stances for dual wield build.

p.s I really wish I could use ashelander with dual wield build. She's just sitting in my bag all the time lol

It should be noted that your stance isn't removed after swapping weapons, you can equip dawn sword for at-will and switch to greatblade without issue.
