    From a pole BM guide I saw a while back, the recommended PVP build is:

    Enough DEX to wear a one-handed sword of your level, enough strength to wear your pole-weapon, and the rest in vitality.

    It's the build I'm using now and it's working quite well.

    Also, don't be discouraged by the amount of axe users.
    I can't say much about pole (being only level 49) but I can say that I, with the help of my wife (a cleric) can AOE grind about 8-10 mobs at a time with /Crappy/ armor (all one star).

    AOE grinding with pole is slightly slower than axe since their AOE's are 360 degrees and ours are linear, but lining up mobs is simple (round up your mobs, use AOE stun, then run away from them and let them come to you) and also our AOE push-back allows for less pot use.

    what I do to aoe grind is:

    1. turn on speed buff, run and get as much mobs as I want
    2. use AOE stun, run a few feet away, engage the physical alter marrow (more defence, but use only for physical mobs) then use a potion just in case my wife can't stack ironheart fast enough
    3. use AOE bleed, fan of flames, aoe knockback, run a few feet back and let them return, then drake sweep (360 aoe), fan of flames again, aoe knockback. and repeat until the mobs die :)

    hope this was helpful

    Just read my guide, not that difficult to find the builds for each weapon.

    lol instead of wasiting more chi for stun then run back a bit luse leap back its alot faster trust me leap skills are the most handist skills a pole BM can use like for example Farstrke leap forward then beat the **** outta mobs if its about to kill you and mobs about dead leap back then farstrike mob dead simple as that XD one more thing max out draw blood and peirsing winds for effective bleed and why the hell would u waste spirit on the sword build stick to one build
