Can Glad's be replaced?

[parmavioleet]

I'm trying to farm with my W/Mo, but all the axe builds i see use Glads Def.Now I havent reached any part of the fire isles yet,so can't cap it.Is there something I can replace it with in the meantime??

My build will/would be:

Bonneti
Glads
Cyclone
Exec
Heal Sig
Sprint
Mending
Live Vic.

I switched glad for Tripple Chop for more damage.

Gladiator's Defense is capped in Dragon's Lair, one of the earliest warrior elites you can get.

If you are gonna go with Glad's Defense why not:

Glad's Defense
Shield Bash
On Your Knees

For a wammo w/o glads def:

Bonneti
Triple chop (e)
Cyclone
Exec
Heal Sig
Sprint/ "iws"/"wys"/res
Vigorous spirit
Live Vic.

You noticed, I copied part of your skillset

Triple chop and Cyclon = major healing when farming mobs, and nice dmg ;)

[Dragon Fire Go]

but glads do block attacks if you are massive farming
or you can get stance with some decent recharges

Bonnetti is instant recharge with cyclone and tripple chop... You dont need 2 stance...

vs large groups of melee, yes. In that case why not go with Cyclone>Glads>Shield Bash>On Your Knees? Permanent damaging stance.

shield bash was the first way I tried to combo on your knees+glads defense. Imo in reality it's not as good as you'd think in some areas at least. I tried against trolls, found that they simply wouldn't use attack skills enough and you're taking quite a lot of damage from 20 trolls when you can't use a stance to reduce it. It's ok, I mean it worked alright, but I think whirlwind is the better option, just seemed a lot easier to use and more reliable.

imo triple chop>glads defense anyway.
