Commando or Battlemaster?

Hi,

The last day i have played around on both a blademaster and a commando as a sword and board cadence build. So far i see pros and cons to both, but i kinda want to hear if anyone can sum it up from an endgame perspective.

From my point of view, the commando seems like the optimal solution with the passives from demo just boosting your phys dmg and survivability.

However, i cant help myself from thinking that the blademaster isnt acctually halfbad with skills like veil of shadows, pneumatic burst, anatomy of murder(boosting cadence bleed, right?). And the more i look into it, it seems like blade trap(even if it dont work on bosses) and blade spirit can help out with AoE issues?

I have not yet reached the point of where i decide on what dmg i am going to use. But i guess i should go phys, pierce or bleed?

Or am i totally in the wrong here, and is the commando “passives” much better than what nightblade offers?

PS! yes, i am totally new to this game.

I would go Commando for Sword and Board Cadence.
I would go Blademaster for DW Cadence.

I would say both are as good as the others but they end up just a bit better depending on which side of the Cadence you go.
