The Steamroller?

I had been following the steamroller spec since I started my GWF and loved it. It was tanky as heck, had good damage and was very PvP viable. I assume it was taken down because it became out dated?
So, my question is, what would be a similar build to that, for anyone familiar. It had great avoidance and mitigation through Bravery and Weapon Master coupled with the Sentinel feats.
Anyone able to help guide me in the right direction? I have been away for a while and when I checked the book mark, it lead to a dead forum page.

As for what happened to the thread... Let's say it got political.
Very true statement. However, even the most original people draw both inspiration and plans through lessons learnt by others to achieve value in design.
I can say that BOTH my GWF/GF are statted/configured differently than any existing build out there, but I did draw from the experiences of others to make the right choices. It doesn't make my build any better than any other, but it works for me, which is what counts most.
Point being, existing build options are great for drawing inspiration.
Then, once you are comfortable with the build, make sure you understand how it works. Then start looking at other players and analyzing their builds to see what is different or what they did to make things work. Once you get to that point, then you can start experimenting and making adjustments. There is no point in trying to come into a game and create something unique from scratch when you can just pull from others who have spent a long time figuring out what works and then make changes once mechanics/other builds are understood.
That would be like trying to design a plane without looking at or having any experience with previous models/designs... it just doesn't make sense.
Steamroller's build is no where original. All OP need to do is to find some high caliber GWF in game to ask for build, they are all pretty close.
Its even easy to guess which feats and passives he is using when u see his stats.
...For those of u that havent seen this > << inappropriate link >>
Gee, I wonder why?
You probably use a copycat build too, so why are you on the forums slamming people for asking questions? If you're not going to be helpful, hit the bricks.
Slush, why even post? He did not ask your opinion. ...Anyway haters will hate. ..to the OP as others have said send steam a tell in game. I have in the past and he is a good guy. He will give you advice.
Sadly your attempt of insult has failed. I run a original build on my main and none of my other toon are geared for PVP so no I don't drop into the copy cat category. Beat it, loser.
I made a statement at my first sentence which is correct. And on my second sentence I did provide a solution for OP's need.
I don't see any of you posting a build other than putting the target on me as your daily troll attempt. Who is the pathetic people here?
I bet your original build is super effective.
That's how the first plane was designed though. -1 for bad analogy. L2History.
This is probably what you are looking for (which will probably change with the mod 3 release).
Gear wise:
2 piece Titan (including chest for highest regen)
2 piece Valiant Duelist's
CN/MC/VT weapon set
Berserkers Amulet of Youth
2x Ring of Greater Repulsion
Thickgristle's Sturdy Belt
Gemmed Exquisite shirt & pants
Radiant enchant for all defensive slots
Dark (and maybe Azure) enchant for all offensive slots
Bloodcrystal, Waters of Elah'zad artifacts - Lantern or alternative for 3rd artifact - Emblem of the Seldarine is currently the best active artifact in most cases
Race:
Halfling or Human
Specwise:
Something like this: http://nwcalc.com/gwf?b=ixr:27s98s:1y1ghs,13il32i:1u0000:150000:1zu051&h=0&p=ivn
Powers: Bravery, Weapon Master, Sure Strike, Threatening Rush, Takedown, IBS, Frontline Surge, Indomitable Strength, Avalanche of Steel
Close/Mark with TR (or tap sprint & TR), burn dodges if needed with Sure Strike, Prone chain, & get in IBS, watch your bleeds crit, cycle unstoppable, PVP heal potion, trinket.
You should be pushing towards 40k health, over 40% crit & 40% deflect with bravery/weapon master stacks, very nice defense, & some sick regen.
Vorpal is preferred enchant, but GPF/Terror is good also. Soulforge is amazing.
even if you swapped out for 2x 616hp rings instead and changed the thickgristle with frostbite (and of course have all the feats and hp boon) hp still isn't 40k.
That's assuming you have 4x rank 10 radiant. would give you 39,850 hp. with the greater repulsion and thickgristle its down to 38,593.
and you HAVE to have a char with +2 con, roll it max, and put 6 ability points into Con.
personally with my Halfling I go 4x radiant and 1x silvery for my defensive slots.
46.5% deflect with bravery and weapon master stacks without any buffs
