[KOTBS] Any viable 2h builds?

[seemsGood]

Hey, about to hit 40 on my kotbs. From what I've read in posts here (many outdated posts), 2h kotbs is completeley useless. Is that still true? Wanna know if I should bother pushing it to 40 as I have no interest in being a snb aura bot.

Its hard to find up to date information about this game sadly. Thanks in advance

Watch this video. I can add more detail in a follow up post.

Thanks for your reply. Is it possible to tank in PvE as 2h from the get go? Feels like parry is kinda low on 2h kotbs

Yes, use the midtree “Coordination” tactic that is low on the tree for 100% up time +20% parry. Not sure there is better parry buff in the game for that cheap. Otherwise, parry comes from “reflexes” skill with the renown trainer and gear bonuses.

However, question might be why not swap to shield spec so you block as well. I have tanked as 2h but block really does prevent a large portion of boss dmg when layered with parry.
