Ok I've been reading some really dumb questions so I decided to fill some azure knight users in on the different aspects of their skills. First, some questions to be answered for all you wondering, and these are the questions I have seen most.

1.Does Sword Mastery increase 2h sword dmg?
Yes, it does, so if you use 2hswords max this skill, It helps!! same with any other 2hander, axe mastery for 2haxe etc.

2.Does 2h Mastery help?
2h mastery does NOT increase 2hander dmg, it increases defense however, making it almost like your wielding a shield, every rank gives +15 defense, maxed at lvl 5 gives +60 defense, which is quite nice.

3.Will Sword Mastery increase my dual sword dmg?
Do not put points into sword mastery to make dual swords stronger, it does NOT increase dual sword dmg, only dual mastery will. Same goes for any other weapons and skills, the only skills dual users can use are dual skills, and passive skills. Dual axe is the best to use because of highest dmg, pointless to get something lower dmg. However this is fun because you can mix and match weapons without actually lowering your dmg. So if your going for a look, you wont be penalized.

4.Is Whirlwind worth maxing out?
I had a tough choice on deciding this, and I realized that by the time you max this skill out, at that high lvl the added dmg really doesnt make a difference compared to lvl 1. It would be best to save you 9 skill points and put into something more useful.

5.Insensibility worth getting?
I found getting interupted really does not happen too often and has not ever been a problem for me, only lag has been an issue. I do not suggest getting this because of lowered attack speed. The only way I could see this being of use is against ranged attacks. Because I'm sure you know how annoying it is to get hit from 3 ranged attacks at once and not being able to move.

6.Is it possible to hybrid dual users with something else?
Yes, I have tested out actual builds that do end up working, so I can use different weapons for different situations. I sucessfully have a dual weapon/2hsword hybrid that works wonders at high lvls. I will be posting this build later on down below.

7.What is the best 2handed weapon?
Hands down it is mace. The attacks you get are amazing area dmg and stun, which is by far the fastest way to lvl when mass killing. The final mace attack does so major dmg, and combined with soul knight and genocide, you can pull off massive death.

8.Do 2handed wielders use the different masterys' skills?
Sword mastery skills, are useable with 2handed swords. Axe mastery skills, are useable with 2handed axes etc etc. And as I said before same goes with the Mastery, it increases the corresponding 2handed weapon. So skills such as sword defense, and the final skills don't actually require using 1 handed sword.

9.What Skills are not worth maxing out?
Do not put anymore than 1 point in the following skills, power strike, sharpen blade, mace bash, bleed slash, cross pierce, triple slash, insensibility, beserk, and this is what i suggest but is optional, whirlwind. These skills with their added dmg will not matter later on, you would not notice a difference in dmg. Not only that, but your skill bar cant have too many skills on it, and in the middle of battle you dont want to rotate skill bars for heals or other attacks/buffs.

10.Is Energetic blade worth maxing?
This skill I found to be very annoying. It is a ranged attack but yet it has the range of attracting monsters, making it a horrible pulling skill. You literally are almost melee range when you use this skill. This skill should have a longer range to be worth maxing, but then again there can be advantages to this high dmg one hit skill for Pvp or bosses. At high lvls this skills adds about 5k dmg. If you are doing hybrid I do not suggest maxing this skill, but since dual swords are limited on skills, maxing it my build will happen later on.

11.What exactly is the correct way to use Sword Defense?
Think of sword defense as a defense buff. If your about to take a ton of dmg, or you going to engage a boss, throw it on before you move in. This adds a percent to your defense, which helps ALOT. Throw it up when able because the increased defense will help vs hard monsters, as well as the increased block rate. The dmg reflected kinda sucks, but i dont mind having it, works VERY well in duels

12.Why not max Beserk? at high levels it does much damage.
Beserk has one big problem, it is slowwwww. If you want to area kill mobs, you dont want to wait 1 second and have 50 guys attack you, cause that could be your death. The charge up on this makes the skill very dangerous. The long 16 second recharge doesnt help either. Not only that, it sucks because the damage increase you get from the buff portion doesnt increase as you increase the lvl of the skill. Only dmg increases from skill increase. Nevertheless it is a useful area attack. The 3 second stun does not work all the time, so dont count on it to save you! you've been warned.

13.Jumping Crash? Yes? No?
People say this skill sucks, I say no. This is by far one of your most used attack skills. Level 10 is 14 mp! that is hella cheap, not only that, it adds 2000 dmg. Alot of the high level skills dont even add that much. Also the reuse time is a small 8 seconds. The area of this isnt actually small, its medium sized, and is everything around you.

14.Strengthen Health?
For all new azure knights, GET THIS SKILL! this is by far the most useful skill that no other class gets besides segnale. You can solo more easily than ever once you get this skill. It casts almost instantly, and gives you enough regeneration of health to outheal most dmg coming from multiple monsters. If your lucky, sometimes the skill recharges instantly and you can keep in up 24/7. I'm not sure what makes it do this but it can happen.

Ok well that wraps up alot of questions I have been seeing, as for some builds, here are some I have, considering you get to 150, I will put in the intervals so you can tell where skills start at and max at. I will add more builds later, but this is what I am working on now, and so far its been as perfect as i wanted.
