{Mod edit}
ABILITIES
Improve grip: Increase Minimum Attack Power
* make sure to max this one first
Burning Wrath: Increase Duration of Rage Mode
* 10 ability points here, no more no less. long enough and cheap enough, beyond 10 points is just a waste.
Reflection Wall: Return Received Damage to the Target
* its a good skill, although only 10 ability points, since you had to split it with burning wrath.
these 4 next skills will be your bread and butter. this is what being a bladesman is all about,
max them accordingly.
Armor Crush
Point Piercing
Hidden Aftermath
Iron Skin
ps. Flowing Blade and Critical Blow seems tempting but i plan ahead, its all good if your not gonna finish your bladesman, or you just like the idea of Criticals and Attack Combos.
*following this build, your gonna suck really bad at low levels, but it pays good, Ownage good. youlll be required to bring Ginsengs as much as you bring Pots.

KI POINTS
1st Promotion - Bladesman
Vicious Spiral Strike: get this one at level 10
Wind Sprint: at level 15, very handy, get it A.S.A.P
Sword of Treefall: get this one at level 20
Winds of War: get this one at lvl 30
* in other words, get all the skills available to you at first promotion. you cant mess up up this one.
2nd promotion - Elemental Defender
Cleaving Strike: youll get this one around level 35-37 depending where you trained, i got mine at 35 since i killed low lvl mobs.
you have to pass the skill Boulder Splitting Slash for level 45 to get:
Earth Splitting Blow (AOE) level 55
* for people who dont know, AOE means Area of Effect, aka: Splash damage.
then youll have these 2 skills..
Boulder Strike: level 60
and Celestial blade: level 64
but most of all --
Shattering Blade AOE: 68
its gonna be close, but only put Ki points on to Boulder Strike or Celestial blade if your sure that your Ki points are gonna make it to get Shattering blade at level 68, you dont wanna miss that. so after you get your 2 most important skills which are the AOE's you can now start gathering Ki for the skills you passed.
* you have to do this for combo variety since youll have 2 combos by now and the same skills cant be put in the same group of skill combos.
Sacred Sentinel - Final Promotion
level 80 skills, your on your own here
