Piercing 15:
Balestra 1
Agile Maneuvrers 4
Bendable 1

Tactics 17:
Feint 4
Defensive support 4
Kick 4
Disabling 1

Vanguard 19:
Stone temple 5
Troll skin 5
Army of one 5

Shields 19:
Precise block 5
Protect ally 5
Ethereal mantle 1(useless pretty much, but, bubble!)
Defensive stance 5
Shield wall 5
Steadiness 5
Deflecting barrier 5

My build, sometimes I swamp agile maneuvrers for onslaught, this build just allows me to do pretty much everything, PvP, RvR, hunting etc, except grinding because I don't have caution, but I wasn't planning on grinding anyway ;P

At the end of the day I do not underestimate any spell (except rig prep).

The build pretty much depends on your race , realm, your intent in war, your gear and jewellery and your weapon of choice. There are really no wrong builds , providing you can maximise the spells and they are applicable to the type of war you wage. War in this case means either PvP, hunt or fort assaults.

Drop disable limb, useless for grinding. Try to get tactics to 15, kick and feint 4 saves you from a lot dmg (not necessary when supported of course).

my suggest: link
with offensive stance and lev 4 knock you can kill mobs with 3 normals + 1 forceful (medium weapon) or with 2 normals + 1 forceful (slow weapon).
with a bit of attack speed you can kill a bot without getting hitted.
mind squash (4) is only needed if you grind in WZ.
if you grind in the inner realm, you can try this

Look at your armor!
Lvl 34 = Full Plate armor = good vs. piercing.

Find some wasps (syrtis has loads of them, alsius has quite a few near trelle market). Level up blunt to 15 to get the pierce resist passive, use lvl 4 caution. They will hit you with pathetic normals, you can kill for a loooong time before needing to rest. If there is a save nearby don't bother with resting either.
If you grind in group try getting Heroic Presence 4 asap (drop tactics a bit, lvl 3 caution is good enough too).

Imho.

Different subject so separate post:

I see a lot of people, in this thread and in game, reverted to single-weapon-setups. Usually pierce, since it's the easiest way to play (you always have the range).
I'm the first one to admit that switching weapons a lot makes me f*** up a lot, but don't you guys miss some essential spells, like MS, or Disable Limb?

MS may have gotten an indirect nerf with the shortened durations on things like Ao1, UM etcetera ... but still? Just askin'
