Two attack skills for +120 damage, a critical, AND a Deep Wound?

Not sure if this has been noticed, but here is something I posted in the Warrior forum... (hm...now that I think about it, posting twice was probably not good, so if necessary, remove this)

Reading about "Find Their Weakness!", I just thought of something.

What if you had Galrath Slash, Final Thrust, "Go for the Eyes!", and "Find Their Weakness!"?

That is +120 damage (very probable, since Galrath would inflict Deep Wound as well), a critical, AND a Deep Wound for two attack skills! Can you say WHOA...

(And the shouts affect everyone, so other Warriors would only need the two attack skills!)

EDIT: I noticed that "Go for the Eyes!" does not state attack SKILL, but actually ATTACK, so you will need something like "To the Limit" after you use "Go for the Eyes!" so you can actually use Galrath Slash. Or you can use an energy attack in place of Galrath Slash.

If you're going to use 4 skills for it, might as well use Executioner's Strike-Protector's Strike-Critical Chop-Destructive Chop. Since PStrike and CChop are close to instant attacks, they chain extremely fast in the middle using an IAS and you have the time of around 2.75 hits, but you do 4 attacks, +126 (without counting PStrike) damage, a sure crit (and an axe crit!) and a deep wound. And 4 attacks instead of 2. It does a hell of a lot of damage overall.

Well, with your four skills you also lose all energy, have an elite, requires more time to pull off (I can use my two shouts instantaneously) and actually requires 5 attacks for the last Deep Wound to effect. It is damaging, I agree, but 5 attacks takes time even with increased attack speed and two of them with 1/2 second activation times.

And, my two shouts affect all party members within earshot, so another sword Warrior would only need Galrath Slash and Final Thrust, and if we really want to go for damage, that second Warrior could put in Protector's Strike and Savage Slash and get 4 attacks, 2 of which with 1/2 second activation times.
