I have last year's fixskills saved up, and I figure I should burn it sooner rather than later. Any suggestions for how to make this build work better?

A few of the skills (MIU/AS) and CMEN (Side by Side) are an RP choice that I'd like to hold onto, even if they're suboptimal.

I use Hamstring + Feras Tigerclaw for CMAN Purekill when necessary.

I had some ranks of ambush for open aiming with my bonded maul, but didn't see enough of a difference to rate giving up MOC for it.

Voln Master, but that's not really a RP thing, just like being able to bless/group fog.

As awesome as Coup is....8 seconds in the open in RT does not work for me. I'd put those points into pmastery. Hold on MoC at rank 35 and that will open up TP's, as will finishing Armor Use at 140 ranks.

I personally find that when I am in an area with a range of creatures (ala sand devils vs wasps/lizards), it is very easy to incapacitate a lone creature of the younger variety (thereby giving you the greatest endroll, and greatest bonus to AS).

This is one of the best(and few) uses for coup de grace in my opinion, as usually the extra AS gained from it allows you to slice through a spell-tanked caster in the area. I did this thoroughly through Trali, Sand devils, and plan to do it in fire mages. I imagine it would also work in the rift.

This is also coming from a rogue that open aims or ambushes, so I am not quite sure how it may translate into a warrior's build, merely offering up insight on the oft maligned 8 second RT of coup (and I agree that there are many cases where the 8 seconds outweighs the benefit)

It's also nice as a group AS booster, along with Side by Side and my character's War Cries, which is why I've kept it. I did drop it down from rank 5, though. We'll see.
