qr- Here's my f/m's last build on paper (from march I think) to give you some ideas if you're interested. A leveling build I don't have handy, it's somewhere on a h/d, but generally if you have team support like a friend w/ an emp/kin whatever, you can manage w/ hf's fs & ba almost up through 20.
If you have more questions ask away, there are plenty of folks experienced w/ these two sets to offer feedback. =]

He're my current build, lvl 46. It covers all the bases as a leveling up build. Im not sure If I'm going to go ahead and take Burn like I planned at 47. Perhaps I'll go with Conserve Power or Hasten, not sure yet. If I get the Performance Shifter + End into Stamina, I might not need Conserve Power. My biggest weakness is End Drain, since every attack lands on a resistance build.
Make sure you get at least one KB protection Steadfast in the bank before you start any Fire Armor tank. The lack of knockback protection is a real fun killer.

You know I hear (or read I suppose) everyone complain about warmace damage but I have to say, I kill things with two swings COLD... I cant do that with other pools. Baron Blarney-Stone is a hard hitting little Leprechaun indeed...
Thanks for the build advice!!

I put the subject that way so other people like me can find this thread. I'm not sure if I am missing the abbreviation of "Firey Aura and War Mace" but I went back two years looking for a build and couldn't get a single hit on various combos,
Does anyone have a build they would recommend to level and then for 50?
