One thing I have not mentioned in the video is the value of slash/strike conditioning + shirking fortification. It is ok to drop health for conditionings and shirking fort in itself can be a super useful perk (when you have it on multiple pieces). Ultimately, this is what I play at the moment and there are multiple variations you can play depending on your playstyle. TLDR: Don't sleep on conditioning perks

hello Mika, Ive been following your bruiser advices since always. Now I'm on a company that doesn´t let me war if iI have no grit ward on my gear, right now im using 4x slash cond, 4x freedom, 4x shirk fort, 1x gravv well; what they say is that shirk fort is very bad right now, is that true?

@@rosa.celeste funnily enough, they are wrong. The reason they tell you it is bad is because it can be removed by void gauntlet, however what they don't know is how easy it is to operate on max stacks. Some of the best bruisers in the game play shirking fort at the moment, it is not bad at all. In contrary I also don't value grit ward as much anymore, but perhaps worth mentioning in another video :P

empower breaker is pretty trash. Another defensive like a slash cond is miles better. Many times when doing proper combo's you'll hit empower cap (especially in war with cleanses and oblivs). invig punish >>> purifying heart. Can't cleanse the rend from deto or else it would probably be bis. invig punish is just more damage (skirts empower cap) good video tho. lots of good info

No company worth a dam at all would slot you if you weren't a KZitemr. Your takes here are just objectively wrong. Its okay to be a social slot, but just tell people upfront that you dont know what you're talking about. At least then, you'd be honest.

Empowering breaker is literally a waste of a perk, with the maulers tree your at empower cap for your deto’s anyway. Grit ward leaves you dead or dieing on the declump, purifying heart dosent cleanse the deto rend, slash conditioning over health, as health offers nothing with a healer, enchanted ward is bad for a point bruiser as how often are you just getting smacked with auto’s…… either the EU meta is wildly different or im horrendously wrong.

Very different choices from what I have been seeing on my server. First of all, bruisers are mostly playing Heavy. Is it really worth to play medium nowadays?That is my main concern. The only problem I see with using all 4 pieces of the Frigid Dawn set + Artifact (Tumbler Feetwraps, Void Darkplate or Djinn) is that you gotta play 300 + 300 instead of 250 + 350, but the benefits of the new set are probably superior to that.
