I need to a shopper and I was thinking of taking these skills Armor Lore Tactics Lore Dual Wield Exalted Warrior Focus Enhanced Perception Bargaining Celestial Magic Focus Celestial Magic Lore Concentration Constitution Also would this build be able to survive on plat/niob...

I currently have 6 mod points waiting to be used and I cant decide on how to mod BS and PS... They all seem good

Tactics lore is an essential skill for any build that primarily engages in weapon based combat and should be the skill you get 5 points in to unlock Dual Wield. Whether to take Sword Lore later on or not is your choice. One thing to remember is that when you dual wield your Attack Value , Attack Speed and Highest Level Without Penalty bonuses come from Dual Wield not Sword Lore that means the only reason for taking both is to unlock the weapon bonuses that require Sword Weapons, some of these bonuses can be powerful. Personally I didn't take it Sword Weapons, at 65 I considered the following on my Dual Wield seraphim Sword Weapons - I prefer Slotted Weapons, although unlocking the chance to inflict deep wounds on my current Ice Flash would be nice I can live without it. Alchemy - The fact that you cant set trophies to potion slots on the PS3 kills this skill, I really didn't want to have to open the inventory, move along to the misc tab and scroll down through any Runes, Books, and Damage modifiers I had picked up to use a trophy whenever I needed to. The increased Mentor Potion Duration would have been nice but not necessary though. Combat Discipline - This is what I went for, at the time I had 2 combos I was using often and the Regen reduction helped. Also the damage bonus was a great. I cant quite cause the same damage as an INT staff Dryad but 10-15k from pelting strikes at 108 is quite effective. Another advantage of taking Combat Discipline is that my Damage/Effectiveness when Dual Wielding anything goes up allowing me to utilize Hafted Weapons(Hammers/Clubs/Axes) and even staffs more effectively if I wanted to. In contrast if you take Sword Lore you gain the benefit of sword mods but should you choose to use a Hafted/Staff weapon you will gain no benefit from it. Just curious to what bronze mods you took on battle stance and pelting strikes

Wouldn't it be a better choice to take flexibility mod on battle stance and just use one regen per hit ring:)
