A Sword warrior build that uses multiple-hit strikes to cut through protection spells like RoF and prot spirit. Although it has some unpopular skills, it has great spikes that can often kill the target in one go. This build also requires a diligent monk to support the warrior as it has no self healing.

Shock can be replaced with Bull's Strike although less effective, more energy-friendly.
Replace Rush with Sprint depending on which you prefer.
Replace Frenzy with Tiger Stance if you prefer it.

[edit] Equipment

Gladiator's Armor, Stoneskin Gauntlets, and a Duelist's Helm.
15%>50 Shocking Sword Of Defense or Of Fortitude.
Another weapon with a 20% Of Enchanting is also preferable.

[edit] Usage

Build your adrenaline with Hundred blades. Hit Shock and Frenzy, Hundred Blades, S&M Slash, then Final Thrust to (Hopefully) finish off the target just as he stands up.

[edit] Counters

Enchant Removal, Anti-Melee, Especially SS, Empathy, and similiar. A Disabled monk also leaves this warrior in a bad spot.

[edit] Variants

It is possible to replace Conjure Lighting with Conjure Frost or Conjure Flame although the shock will do less damage and Knockdowns will be harder to do without it. Or this bar for a more conventional sword spike:
