Bloodbath (may as well, Impulse Drive isn't really necessary)

I disagree slightly with this one.
While neither ability is a necessary skill I do recommend setting Impulse drive over Bloodbath.

Once you get into your rotation and start feeling comfortable with moving around in battle Impulse Drive is a very potent addition to the weapon skill set.

true,impulse drive is a pretty good skill to have.you can fit it in your rotation for some pretty good dmg
.blood bath is kind of useless in groupe play since you shouldnt get hit unless your tank sux.for solo play i recommand blood bath over impulse drive since you wont be able to go on back position most off the time and blood bath is pretty good if you want to aggro many monster and aoe them.
