would it be better for me to max axe mastery first and only put 1 skill into wirlwind or save my skills and max ww at the same time as battle orders and max axe mastery third??

i kind of see benefits in both but am having a hard time making a decision any help would be greatly appreciated ty

im closing in on 30 gotta make a choice lol

i kind of see myself useing more berserk anyways off the top because of mana so i may just go axe mastery then ww

Ww points are more damage than sword mastery points, as long as your chance to hit is decent. If you think about it, the dmg bonus from sword mastery is applied before the ww dmg reduction (I think?) so they aren't as much damage as they sound like

nothing is applied before or after anything
if you have lvl1 ww -50%dmg and lvl10 mastery +73%dmg that's -50+73=23%ed
