Looking to build upon my cmans....here's what I have so far. I am a halfling THW warrior.


Skill name Mnemonic Ranks
Specialization I wspec1 3
Weapon Bonding bonding 5
Combat Mobility mobility 1
Combat Toughness toughness 1
Surge of Strength surge 5
Parry Mastery pmastery 1

Available Combat Maneuver Training Points: 9

I have heard sstrike is pretty good as far as neutralizing pures. I also hear sblow is decent as well. What about mblow? comment and halp plz.

Staggering Blow has a pretty big size component in it, so as a halfling you'll only get the "send the creature flying into another room" on stuff near your size. The roundtime induced from Staggering Blow is pretty nice, but I'd go for Feint first unless you're getting it through the Guild.

Just remember, each Staggering Blow eats 25 stamina. It works as an AS/DS resolution, so if you swing and the creature evades/blocks/parries, you're still out 25 stamina.

that's weak! Maybe sstrike? clearly headbutt is out of the question, i can't reach anyone. maybe i'll fixskill to polearms, but i'd like to be able to ambush body parts, which i couldn't with a lance.

I would bump the Perry up a notch.

I was just thinking - honestly, what other cmans are worth it? All i really need are the warrior guild skills (feint mostly) and the passive ones like pmast, toughness, mobility. i guess i could do cman coup for fun, and the AS boost...

pretty close to what I have at 53.. I had coup at 5 ranks once and it was pretty fun, but not super practical.

Here's what I have now, without a whole lot of thought put into it, and I've been fine-
Skill name Mnemonic Ranks
Precision precision 1
Specialization I wspec1 4
Weapon Bonding bonding 5
Combat Mobility mobility 1
Surge of Strength surge 5
Parry Mastery pmastery 2

Available Combat Maneuver Training Points: 9

Not many are worth it IMO.

I have as a dwarf two handed warrior with just a little above 2x PF:
Specialization I wspec1 5
Weapon Bonding bonding 5
Combat Mobility mobility 2
Surge of Strength surge 5
Parry Mastery pmastery 2
Combat Toughness toughness 2 (215 hp)
and coup at rank 3 (cause I didn't have anything I wanted to put my points in)

When I get to the temple I think I'll drop coup and get charge defense.

master of everything but warcry and disarm (almost!)

I always recommend Sunder Shield.
