    I would really recommend body slam since it's a great gap closer and control :)

    Defensive Stance is also great to have.

    I second the body slam recommendation. It is the most useful glyph in my deck.
    Also, don't be afraid to experiment. I'm a plate wearing archer that used body slam instead of gust.

    Deck building has a lot of different opinions on what/how things should be. My suggestion would be multiple decks based on what you are killing in order to keep you glyph count down to relevant useful glyph's. I prefer using mindlock and stacking all my glyph's to 5 but there are effective decks that do not use mindlock and still leave room for stacking.

    This is the general setup I use which is a 24 Glyph deck with mindlock. 6 unlocked/4 Locked, skills are interchangeable based on the fight or roll in group: (if the skills you are using are not to 80 x4 can replace the x5 and still have no slugs as long as you have 19/20 glyphs total)
    Skill1 x5
    Skill2 x5
    Skill3 x5
    Skill4 x5
    Skill5 x4 (which is my mindlock) 4 cards should be able to draw one every 20 seconds
    Skill6 x1
    Skill7 x1
    Skill8 x1

    Slot 1: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 2: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 3: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 4: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 5: skill4
    Slot 6: skill4
    Slot7: skill5
    Slot8: skill6 locked
    Slot9: skill7 locked
    Slot0: skill8 locked

    When mindlock is removed I normally go to a 20 Glyph deck with 5 locked 5 unlocked. And skills are again interchangeable based on what you are fighting or role in group. (If you don't have skills 1-5 at 80 then put x4 for 1 to 5 and unlock skill 5 and add glyphs to bring the count to 19/20 so you have no slugs like the deck above)

    Skill1 x5
    Skill2 x5
    Skill3 x5
    Skill4 x5
    Skill5 x1
    Skill6 x1
    Skill7 x1
    Skill8 x1

    Slot 1: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 2: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 3: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 4: skill1,skill2,skill3
    Slot 5: skill4
    Slot 6: skill4
    Slot7: skill5 locked
    Slot8: skill6 locked
    Slot9: skill7 locked
    Slot0: skill8 locked

    The setup of this system is based on personal preference also. I use this setup so I can key bind slots 5 through 0 and only have to stack 1-4 which is close enough to the WASD keys to not impede movement.

    or you can lock your deck and have all of your Bar available all the time, no waiting for them to reveal themselves

    Nice, that is just I want. But the last question, are you use combos? how do you do your combos?

    Yes but I think that you loose a lot of damage, because you can not do combos and you can not combine glyphs

    Blade has some combos with Firemagic afaik.

    You can drag and drop at the bar or
    press R and then skill 1 and then skill 2
    or you press and hold skill 1 and then press the other while still holding 1.

    Stacking glyphs is highly recommended!!!

    Edit: dont use too much glyphs later as the redraw gets slower and slower.
    18 - 30 is good, with 40 glyphs on a deck i had sometimes to wait too long to have an attack ready again.

    I use just one Single spell atm to attack.
    But have this spell dynamic on 1,2,3 to stack it.

    body slam working better than piercing breeze? (aimed + gust)

    I think that's a cc Dirk ..while with body slam you rush towards the enemy.. which is really useful especially as warrior cause you have to connect with a weapon.

    Body slam damages and stuns them, which lets me pull back a little while filling them with arrows before the next body slam. Works well for me and they don't leash because less ground is covered. Also I'm not trying to run around backwards all the time.
