I was thinking defense and finesse (for the scythe). I'm a master CH and hunt in groups so mind dammage is not really usefull for me.
What do you think, would I be better with defense and offense? I'm currently attacking with "2 hand hit 2" and will probably switch to the area effects when they get better then this attack. What do you suggest?

in fact I just noticed that there's no other area attack in the defense line after "spin attack 2", would two handed area attacks be more dammaging? (I could get the third one) I have exactly 38 skill points available for swordman skills (including novice)

Might try 0,4,1,3 for a total of 37 points (including novice). This would give you spin attack 2 increased speed, headhit 3 and scythe cert.

I like it Jockothemonkey! I don't need all these defense bonus with my pets I guess... Mind hit will be good for pvp, the area attack for group hunting and I get the scythe... thanks!

Alaxias, you will NEED at least x/4/x/x, the speed tree is vital. Spinattack2 is still in my opinion the best area attack, area attack 3 doesnt blind, it dizzies, rarely lowers posture, and even though the damage multiplier is supposedly equal or higher than spinattack2, it doesnt seem to do much better because I think the delay multiplier is also longer. If you can, its worth going 0/4/1/4, instead of just 0/4/1/3, so you can get that +30 accuracy. With a Power Hammer with -30 range mods, you need all the accuracy you can get.

I don't know what power hammers are like onother servers, but on Intrepid it's pretty easy to find power hammers with -16 or -17 range mods, which really isn't too bad with finesse 3
