Swordman DPS/Tank PVE Build advice

Hi folks, I just made a swordman and I was thinking about… a pve tank/dps build (maybe it works also in pvp, idk lol) and I made THIS, I’m a newb in ToS so I’m not really good at the game.
Let me know how can I make it better or just if it’s good ^^!

Gungho and Guardian don’t stack

Synchro Thrusting isn’t that good, unless I’m missing something (mainly because the block window is too short and the cast animation is too long to make use of the extra damage)

I would suggest max Rim Blow, it’s good

Get 1 Long Stride for gap closing

Anyway, here’s my build http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/2wjlk7ft8n/

I like your build more than mine tbh, I was not sure about some skills… I’ll try out your build for sure!
Thanks :smiley:!

Oh and last question, what about the stats? I was doing something like 2-3 str and then 1 con >.<

I don’t have a fixed ratio for stat build. Then again, I’m not that high yet, only tested to 70-80

I added up to 50 STR at the beginning for the ease of grinding, then I add about 20 CON for HP and blocking (learn the +25% block attribute on peltasta), then I proceed to add DEX for crit rate and evasion to offset the penalty from finestra. I think I will add DEX up to 100 or something like that, then pour into STR.

Because of the bonus stat after 4-5 points or so, it is not advisable to spread your stat.
