Huh, I’m sorry about what happened. I feel your pain.
Let’s analyse what usefull skils / attributes you’ve got:
-Swordsman 1 (mandatory, minor buffs)
-Peltasta 1 (Shields+Swashbuckling)
-Hoplite 2 (1H Spears+Finestra 10)
-Barbarian 1 (2H Swords, Helm Chopper)
I see the following paths:
Barbarian 2
To make the best use of Barbarian, you could take another rank and get Seism, but you already have circle 2 good damaging skills from Hoplite and Doppel 2 > Barbarian 2 + Doppel 1. Nevertheless, you would still get Frenzy and Warcry, which are actually useful for any swordsman circle (including Hoplite 2).
Hoplite 3 + Dragoon
Hoplite 3 would actually be useful: you get Finestra 15 and, after that, you can take Dragoon. Barbarian 1 would add another set of damaging skills while your Hoplite+Dragoon skills are on cooldown (and Helm Chopper would be useful for the Stun, regardless).
Doppel 2
Doppel 2 would also be a good choice; many people get it, although it would be a shame to drop Dragoon, since you already have Hoplite 2. I haven’t played with Doppel 2 skills before, so I’m not sure if they are actually good, but measuring by the amount of Doppel 2 builds, they should be.
Actually, while searching for Hoplite+Barbarian on the skill simulator, I found one similar build (Barb2+Hoplite1), that could help you:
You could swap the last Doppel for Barb 2, or keep Barb 1 and Doppel 2. Picking up Barbarian was not that much of a disaster (it is still awful that this happened, though, since it messed up your build), there are still ways to mend it.
Hope I helped, good luck out there.
