Hashire Kazemeijin Allegro Owwin Rogue/Warrior? Raft/Water? Ranger/Warrior. Close enough. Show me? Sure.

I didn't even know Stance Tank was still alive. I haven't seen it in battle since the original. This version looks formidable. Could probably be deadly in PvP as well. Just trade Whirlwind for Belly Smash.

Just trade Whirlwind for Belly Smash. Hell, there's a free slot. Belly smash is designed for single mobs, Whirlwind is designed to hit multiple foes at once.

I just thought that since Whirlwind can't go in PvP. I guess at least with Whirlwind, Adrenaline shouldn't be an issue, save Adrenaline denial.

Never really got into PvP.

Hah. The old RaO Thumper. I remember running this when it first came out. For PvE usage, I'd switch rez sig for Sunspear Rebirth Sig, or another utility skill. In the optional slot, Scavenger's Strike is the most viable since Energizing Wind has too high a recharge for the small skirmishes that is PvE. The biggest weakness of this build is it's energy demand.
Yu should totally get a Crab as a pet. It's always hilarious when someone dies a death by Crab. (My Beastmaster's pet of choice.)

For a single target Hammer Elite, I'd take Backbreaker over Magehunter's unless the Explorable Area is heavy with Blocking Enchantments. It has a heavy Adrenaline cost, but a 4 second knockdown is the longest KD a human player can achieve.
As for Bestial/Savage Pounce, I'd only consider it if yu don't have energy issues. The biggest pro of the Thumper is its' caster pressure As soon as yu hit Hammer Bash, they get hit with Daze from Mauling, and Deep Wound from Crushing, so they can't cast spells and healing is weakened.

I'd probably go with Backbreaker if there was another dedicated melee/tanker in the party, but Earth Shaker would have to be my elite if I was the only tanker in order to keep pressure off the casters. And with the armor set that the build recommend I doubt energy would ever be an issue.

Use Pounce to hassle casters while yu build Adrenaline, and then do the KD chain with Mauling to finish them.

I suggest Death leveling a Dire pet for any Beastmaster build. Any idea on which pet yu will choose?

Not sure. Maybe a Warthog? xd It does slashing damage, which is the only kind of damage I can't do as a R/W.
