Equipment

• Any armor will do, but Gladiator's Armor is not needed as you only have 1 energy skill.
• Victo's Maul or a similar hammer will do well.

Usage

• Use Enraging Charge to run into battle and help build adrenaline.
• Activate Flail as soon as it's charged to speed up adrenaline gain and increase dps.
• Once your attacks are charged, use Forceful Blow on your enemy. Don't use Forceful Blow if they use blocking stances or enchantments.
• Follow up with Fierce Blow for more damage.
• Use Heavy Blow as a finishing move, or if you need a knockdown.
• Rinse and repeat.

Counters

• Blindness and Weakness.
• Anti-Warrior hexes such as Spiteful Spirit and Empathy.

Variants

• Flail and Enraging Charge could be replaced by Sprint and "Watch Yourself!" for a Factions only build.
• Counter Blow can be used instead of Heavy Blow for a cheap knockdown.
• Irresistible Blow could be used to punish blocking.
