Can someone give me some ideas on how they use their specials and how often? I usually put the low action cost special from the brawler tree as my default so I don't eat up action but how and when should I use my specials? Often their descriptions seem rather vague and they don't really tell me how useful they are.

well there are alot of variables. first get your action buffed, then grab some action food and a few SAC pups. this should give you alot more action when a fight comes along.
first every fight is armor break, whatever version you have use it. after that its kinda up to you to combine your high power moves with lower action cost moves. each person will develope their own techniques with practice.
there are lots of methods to use, and like i said many variables. the best way to figure it out is to get out there and start killin stuff.

I use armour break.
Melee hit 3-4 times.
KD
Headhit
Critical hit
Headhit.
Then i'm at 30% action. Reaply CoB and regen alittle while i melee hit them more.

With a PH equipped, my normal pattern is:
KD
Armor break
Crit
Basic strike
Power attack
Basic strike
Crit...
etc
In other words, I alternate a basic strike with a more powerful special, that is, when I have a PH equipped.
Normally, I use Katarn Knucklers since I have both TK and Sword. The SAC on that is much lower than the PH, so I do more advanced specials and less basic strikes.
