Must have Realm Abilities for a Hero/BM?

Any ideas? Some of the abilities don't look good for the investment in points. Purge definitely looks like a must though...

Det9 is more important than purge imo

besides that on BM I would go purge2-3 and aug str/MoP etc...

on hero there are some nice group-RAs that are good to have

but I am not really familiar with both classes to say much more than DET9 is a must

But that's like... Alot of realm points for Det 9.... I'm gonna be playing a dedicated shield peeler for RvR just to give you an idea.

And as such you are of no use if you stand around doing nothing (e.g. being rooted/mezzed longer than you have to). So go det9 first. It's still an option to check out other RAs (e.g. those nice group RAs for heroes) on the way (in order to fill some waiting time while getting enough RPs for your RAs.

Ok so how many points is Det 9? And should I go for Purge right after? Or mastery of blocking?

Afaik Det9 currently is only 24points (really cheap...it is reduced from 34points)

purge on a 5minute timer would cost 30points and you would still be standing a lot more in CC than with Det9

Correct. As a stoicisim class I'd get det9 right off the bat then either go for damage (if you're an offtank) or Utility (if you're a peeler). While doing that you'll get an idea of how much you might need purge and how fast/often it has to be available.

Yes and to add to that you might only need Purge 1 or 2 (if at all) because det9 and stoicism are so powerful. Group mates cure your mez and the only real reason to use purge is for snares, debuffs and stuns.

The level of purge you take will depend on RR (well - you need the points, right? ) and on how often you think you should have been able to purge just to... [insert anythink like "score the last hit" or "block that final blow to the team mate" or "get the hell out of here"...].

For all full and off tanks I'd suggest to go det9 + purge1 first. Then you need to check for yourself what you want to do from there (offensive or defensive stuff, higher purge, ...)
